Line 8: ''[[Koi Kaze]]'' started out as a manga series which then got adapted into an anime series in 2004 and immediately received a lot of attention for its harrowingly realistic examination of sibling incest. The painful and guilt-ridden romance between Koshiro and Nanoka is credibly full of angst and [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]] as the two struggle against their desires, refreshingly devoid of the blithe disregard for social mores and [[Fan Service]] most [[Shonen]] series on similar subjects tend to have. ---- {{tropelist}} ~~=== Tropes: ===~~ * [[Arranged Marriage]]: Koshiro works in an ''omiai'' (dating arrangement) office. He even faces the possibility of having one of these dates at some point. {{spoiler\|He refuses}}. Line 16: * [[Bottle Fairy]]: Chidori, who once partied so hard that she was calling herself "Midori" as she pressed more booze on Odagiri to get him drunk with her. ** In addition to drinking hard, however, she's also rather hard-bitten and sometimes gets rather mean when she's drunk. * [[Brother -Sister Incest]]: Goes without saying. One of the best deconstructions of the trope around. Something of a reconstruction too, however: could a brother and sister romance really happen, in view of what we know about the [[~~http~~wikipedia:~~//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imprinting_<!--~~Imprinting ~~28psychology29~~chr(28)psychologychr(29)#~~Westermarck_effect~~Westermarck effect\|Westermarck Effect]]? Yes it could, at least if the brother and sister happened to be, say, separated at a very early age due to a divorce. Somebody apparently ~~DidDoTheResearch.~~[[Did ~~-->~~Do the Research]]. There's also [~~http://en.~~[wikipedia~~.org/wiki/Genetic_sexual_attraction~~:Genetic sexual attraction\|Genetic Sexual Attraction]] to explain why they have such strong feelings towards each other. * [[Cherry Blossoms]]: You can't have a Japanese romance without 'em. * [[Christmas Cake]]: Koshiro's family and coworkers wonder why a guy his age isn't married yet. Line 31: * [[Love Bubbles]] * [[Luminescent Blush]] * [[May -December Romance]]: Aside from being her brother, he's also twelve years older than she is. * [[No Periods, Period]]: Subverted: Nanoka has her first period in three months and suffers some severe cramps from it. * [[Not Blood Siblings]]: {{spoiler\|Cruelly averted; though the series offers a few hints here and there that it's going to pull this particular cop-out and tell us Koshiro is actually adopted, it ultimately [[Red Herring\|pulls the rug out]] from under everyone wishing this were the case.}} * [[Solomon Divorce]]: Nanoka and Koshiro are apparently only reunited for overall convenience.
