Line 23:
* [[The Ace]]: Subaru
** Except when it comes to cooking. Or nursing someone. She's got the right heart, but goes ''way'' overboard.
* [[A
** {{spoiler|After she gets drunk in the light novel, Subaru admits to drinking milk every day in to be, in her words, "like Kana-chan."}}
** Usami on occasion as well. Hey, that's what's you get when you hang out with [[Gag Boobs|Nakuru]].
Line 29:
** {{spoiler|And then there's Nakuru's older sister Shuredeiga. Despite being in her last year of high school, she looks she should be in elementary school.}}
* [[Adaptation-Induced Plothole]]: So, why didn't Subaru use that {{spoiler|big bag of weapons carried [[Crazy Prepared|just in case of an emergency]] like Kanade's kidnapping}}? In the light novel, {{spoiler|the kidnapper already knows about the bag and specifically orders her not to bring it. It also serves as a bit of [[Foreshadowing]] that [[Batman Gambit|something's up]] with the whole situation}}.
* [[A Day in
** Nakuru gets one in episode 13 of the anime.
* [[All of the Other Reindeer]]: Usami ''really'' is lonely. Until she befriended Jiro, she was unable to trust anyone. The fact that she lived by herself after her family broke up probably didn't help either.
Line 46:
** In the novel and episode 4 of the anime, she offers to do the laundry for Jirou while staying over at his place, after sparring. He catches her sniffing his recently used sweaty towel, after which all she manages to say is this:
{{quote| '''Subaru''': You've got it all wrong! [[Specifically Suspicious Denial|I wasn't sniffing your sweaty towel because I was curious about how a man smells! I wasn't doing anything like that at all!]]}}
* [[Base Breaker]]: [[In
** And it's slowly going to end up in a [[Civil War]].
* [[Batman Gambit]]: In Episode 3 Kanade was kidnapped by a knife-wielding man in a wolf-mask. Turns out she planned it all along, and her "kidnapper" is Subaru's father, Nagare. She intended to help Subaru overcome her fear of knives, though things spun a bit out of control because Jiro fought Nagare, resulting in some friction between father and daughter.
Line 75:
** In episode 7 Subaru's father Nagare nearly blows her cover, but both Kanade and Subaru come up with some lies to make it seem like he's a pervert. It works rather well.
** Jiro's public [[Love Confession]] to Kanade in episode 6, and her sudden rejection, in order to prevent the S4 girls from attacking him. Surprisingly it works, and Kanade later tells him she loves him, to get back at his fake one earlier.
* [[Blue
* [[Bound and Gagged]]: Kanade does this to Subaru complete with a ballgag.
** And now to Mayoi after the latter also discovers Subaru's secret. [[Covert Pervert|Not that she is put off by it, though.]]
Line 138:
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: Usami manages to squirt a large quantity of glue over her face and hair.
* {{spoiler|[[Driven to Suicide]]: Usami in the manga, due to her inability to trust anyone finally getting too much for her. Fortunately, Jiro is able to stop her, turning this into an [[Interrupted Suicide]].}}
* [[Drunk
** [[Drunken Boxing]]: ...the ability to instantly strip anyone.
* [[Dynamic Entry]]: Kureha pulls off one in Episode 2, making for a pretty painful [[Moment Killer]] for Jiro.
Line 155:
* [[Expy]]: Kanade is basically a black-haired [[Maria Holic|Mariya Shidou]], except actually female.
** And adding to the [[Maria Holic]] allusion, Mayoi is the pink-haired Kanako Miyamae to Kanade's Mariya.
** Subaru's been compared to [[Fate/stay
** Kureha is quite similar to [[Naruto|Sakura Haruno]] in both appearance and attitude. They're the same age too.
* [[Eyecatch]]
Line 163:
* [[False Start]]: The end of Episode 8 makes it appear that {{spoiler|Subaru is about to confess to Jiro, but then [[Cannot Spit It Out|tells him to forget about it]]}}. Next episode {{spoiler|she tells him she was ''really'' asking him to be her best friend, but the look on her face as she walks away suggests otherwise}}.
* [[Fan Service]]: This show is heavy on the [[Accidental Pervert]] tropes, but in the broadcast version at least [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]] and [[Magic Skirt]] are in effect. The [[DVD Bonus Content|DVDs]] [[Hotter and Sexier|are a different story]], although [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]] is still in place.
* [[Fan Service
* [[First Kiss]]: Kanade claims {{spoiler|she took Jiro's... along with hers.}}
** {{spoiler|Turns out Subaru beat her to it with a [[Clean Pretty Reliable|CPR]] while [[Dude, She's Like, in
** {{spoiler|Jiro takes Usami's at the end of volume 9 of the light novels.}}
* [[Forgotten Birthday]]: Episode 10 deals with the issue of Jiro apparently forgetting Kureha's 16th birthday. While she celebrates it at Usami's place, and then at the [[Maid Cafe]] Usami works at, all he did was sleep till noon and eat instant noodles. {{spoiler|[[Pet the Dog|Turns out he bought her a big stuffed polar bear as restitution for actually forgetting it last year, earning him a beatdown from her.]] She still beats him up in joy, anyways}}.
Line 180:
* [[Giver of Lame Names]]: Subaru, because she has a huge love of [[Gratuitous English]].
* [[Giving Up the Ghost]]: Jiro does it a couple of times.
* [[Gratuitous English]]: Part of the [[Signature Style]] of the director, [[Hayate the Combat Butler
** In an [[Imagine Spot]] in the first episode, Subaru writes [[Title Drop|"A butler strayed, I am chicken, episode end of earth"]] on a chalkboard.
** Subaru has [[Giver of Lame Names|a fondness]] for [[Gratuitous English]] names, like "Butler Knuckle" or "End of Earth", and gives Jiro the nickname "Silver Killer" when confronting him in the manga and [[Light Novel]]. Jiro points out how ridiculous these names are to Subaru's [[Luminescent Blush|embarrassment]].
Line 211:
** {{spoiler|In the light novel, after worrying about her own feelings, even after she promised Subaru she'd help her properly convey her feelings to Jiro, Kanade decides, with a bit of push from Jiro, albeit unwittingly, to step up her teasing of him. When he warns her that if she did that, in time he'd probably begin to hate her. Her response?}}
{{quote| {{spoiler|It's fine if you hate me. But I ''will'' keep my promise.}}}}
* [[Jerk
** Kanade also keeps her word in helping Jiro cure his gynophobia, though in ways which fluster and/or humiliate him.
** After learning that she is orphaned, Kanade tells Mayoi that she wants her to be more like a family member instead of a mere servant.
* [[Justified Trope]]: Jiro's ability to take beatings without a scratch is justified with a [[Hilariously Abusive Childhood]]-forged [[Made of Iron|fortitude]]. Although other characters have displayed [[Charles Atlas Superpower|Charles Atlas Superpowers]], no one has had to take an extended beatdown like Jiro for a proper comparison.
* [[Karma Houdini]]: [[Rule of Funny]] dictates that Kanade always gets away with a lot of mischief she causes. Then again, she's the [[Screw the Rules, I Have Money|daughter of the school principal]] and she [[Jerk
* [[Kick Chick]]: Usami.
* [[Lap Pillow]]: Jiro gets one from Subaru at the end of episode 8.
Line 221:
* [[Late for School]]/[[Crash Into Hello]]: How Jiro and Usami meet. Only she's riding a motorcycle. Jiro even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades on it]] in the manga.
* [[Lethal Chef]]: Subaru. When she tries cooking something with Jiro in the light novel, he mentions that he repeatedly had to stop her from accidentally setting fire to the house multiple times.
* [[Letting the Air Out of
* [[Little Sister Heroine]]: Kureha, although this is mostly played for laughs and played up more in the other media than in the anime.
* [[Lolicon]]: Kosame. Subaru thinks it has something to do with her complex about her bust size.
Line 257:
* [[Ninja Maid]]: Subaru goes into this mode in episode 13 after spotting what appears to be a stalker taking pictures of her in the bath.
* [[Nobody Poops]]: As a trip to the bathroom sets the plot in motion, this trope is quite obviously averted.
* [[Nosebleed]]: [[Blessed
* [[Ojou]]: Kanade
* [[One Dialogue, Two Conversations]]: This trope happens too many times to count, especially in the [[Light Novel]] and, to a lesser extent, the manga. Some noteworthy examples:
Line 287:
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: Kanade.
* [[Relationship Upgrade]]: Subaru and Jiro go from "friends", to "best friends", but otherwise this trope is in effect for them in episode 9.
* [[Rich Bitch]]: Kanade, of the rarer "[[Jerk
** Actually, only Jiro and Usami really thinks of her this way, which is justified because of all the "torture" she seems to enjoy putting them in. No one else seems to really care about her status, nor does she really flaunt herself as being "better" than other people.
* [[Rose-Haired Girl]]: Kureha and her mom Yakemi, as well as Mayoi.
Line 309:
{{quote| '''Subaru:''' "It's not like I was watching you sleep in secret!"}}
* [[Sweet Polly Oliver]]: Subaru
** [[Sweet
* [[Talking in Your Sleep]]: Kureha.
* [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]]: Kanade.
Line 330:
* [[Woman in Black]]: Kanade.
* [[Wrestler in All of Us]]: How Kureha wakes up Jiro. Also, Yakemi is supposedly strong enough to beat a tiger with her bare hands.
* [[
* [[Yandere]]/[[Psycho Lesbian]]: Ichigo towards Kanade. Mayoi even calls her this.
** And inadvertently, the S4 is following the same path, with their overprotective attitude towards Subaru and utter contempt for Jiro.
