Ikuto Touhouin runs away from home after a fight with his father and boards a ship. After falling overboard during a huge storm, he washes ashore on a mysterious island inhabited by only women, with no escape. With a guy on the island at last, now everyone is determined to make him their husband.

Line 26:

* [[Apologizes a Lot]]: Mei Mei, again.

* [[Arbitrary Skepticism]]: Ikuto has gradually become accustomed to talking with the anthropomorphic animals on the island, yet still refuses to believe in anything of paranormal or mythological origin ''even if it is right in front of him''.

** He doesn't have any problems believing in Aliens and [[Robot Girl~~|Robot Girls~~]] either.

** He doesn't have any problems believing in Aliens and [[Robot Girl]]s either.

** He winds up on the other end of the spectrum, when he tries to convince the islanders on the existence of the aforementioned aliens.

** Ikuto did have trouble believing in the anthropomorphic aspect of Airantou's animals, but that quickly died away when Shima-tora made a..."convincing" argument.

Line 53:

* [[Batman Gambit]]: The Scavenger Hunt [[Story Arc]] doesn't count on its own at first; it took the aftermath chapter to show it to be one. {{spoiler|Obaba made sure that all the girls will be exhausted in the competition so that the winner and the "prize" (Ikuto and whoever-he-picks/whoever-picks-him) would not be disturbed at the hotsprings.}}

* [[Battle Aura]]: Apparently, all the Leaders are supposed to possess this.

** [[Youkai~~|Youkais~~]], too.

** [[Youkai]]s, too.

** Oh, poor Mei-Mei.

* [[The Beard]]: Machi goes on a fake date with Ikuto to get Hikaru Genji to stop pursuing her.

Line 67:

** He also brought lunch.

** {{spoiler|Machi's shikigamis [[All Your Powers Combined|transformed]] [[The Power of Friendship|into]] Devil Sky Dragon Muramasa to save the day.}}

** Ikuto and Suzu also rescued Yukino, and Taka-Taka's nephew Piyomaru, from the Kami Kami group [http://www.tenmanga.com/chapter/NagasareteAirantou64/172769-24.html| in the best dramatic style].

* [[Big Eater]]: Machi

* [[Big Fancy House]]: Chikage's.

Line 101:

** [[Justifying Edit|They're probably unfertilized eggs.]]

** This was particularly unsettling when {{spoiler|Chikage found a spellbook and uses it to turn all the animals into people and the people into animals, and the hen becomes a woman somewhere in her 30s.}} [[Fridge Horror|Ick.]]

* [[Catgirl]]: Suzu, who is on very good terms with the cats and spent some time being trained by their Leader, wears a bow that seems to only be there to give the impression of cat ears in certain shots, sometimes makes feline sounds when excited or scared, and a cat-like aura appears [[Running Gag|whenever she goes]] [[Yandere ~~(disambiguation)~~]] (inherited from her mother). This is played even straighter when she turns into a cat for the human-animal transformation episode.

This is played even straighter when she turns into a cat for the human-animal transformation episode.

** Also, Shima-tora's wife Myaa (see [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]] below).

* [[Cat Eared Headband]]: A few times with Chikage's cosplay obsession.

Line 107:

* [[Charles Atlas Superpower]]: Rin is the most primary example in the series.

* [[Chinese Girl]]: Mei Mei

* [[Christmas Cake]]: [[Values Dissonance]] has Airantou's inhabitants get married at around ~~14-15~~ years of age. Therefore, apparently, it's an issue for those who are well "over" that age. [[Berserk Button|Not worth it mentioning "who" exactly, though...]]

* [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]: The most interesting variant of which is Suzu herself, who ''[[Oblivious to Love|doesn't]]'' [[Oblivious to Love|know what she is being jealous about...]] Also when she becomes jealous she wants to take a bath with him. Not to do anything, just bathe together.

** Because Ikuto said she is cute when she smiles, she tries to curtail her jealous tendencies later on.

Line 150:

* [[Eastern Zodiac]]: Yashiro's shikigamis.

* [[Easy Amnesia]]: Chapter 125 reveals that Ikuto's mother developed this after ''she'' fell off a boat (perhaps it runs in the family) and swam towards shore "only to crash into a dolphin." She recovered upon hitting her head again, apparently a few months later.

* [[Eat the Dog|Eat The Pig]]: One bonus chapter has mame daifuku that were accidentally made with alcohol, so Suzu gets drunk...and sees Tonkatsu, or anything round and soft for that matter<ref>including Rin's ''breasts''</ref>, as a mame daifuku. [[Hilarity Ensues]].

* [[Ecchi]]

* [[Empathy Pet]]: Tonkatsu, to an extent.

Line 202:

* [[Heroism Incentive]]: To get the girls to care about the test results they offer a date with Ikuto as the incentive.

* [[Hey, You]]: Michiru is called this by almost everyone on the island, because they don't remember who she is.

** [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: in regards to the [[Retcon]]<ref>simply put, Michiru claiming that she was there when Suzu first brought Ikuto to Obaba's house, yet no one "remembers" her, develops into the [[Running Gag]] above</ref>.

** [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: in regards to the [[Retcon]].<ref>simply put, Michiru claiming that she was there when Suzu first brought Ikuto to Obaba's house, yet no one "remembers" her, develops into the [[Running Gag]] above</ref>

* [[Hey, That's My Line!]]

* [[Hidden Badass]]: {{spoiler|Karaage}}, at least to Ikuto.

Line 210:

** Also, a [[Youkai]] having the ''exact same appearance'' as Ayane. Think about ''that'' for a while.

** According to Ikuto, Michiru is an [[In-Universe]] [[Expy]] of {{spoiler|his little sister, Misaki}}.

** What's ''more'' bizarre, Misaki mentions two cousins of Ikuto he'd never referred to: they look like Ayane and Machi ... and they're named Ayane and ~~Machi -- but~~ the Ayane in Japan is the elder sister. Physical resemblance is weird enough; matching names is something else again.

* [[Idiot Hair]]: Yukino, [[Lampshaded]] even.

* [[Idiot Hero]]: Ikuto, as Karaage and Beniyasha both like to tell him. Even though it really only applies when he is dealing with women.

Line 244:

* [[Lap Pillow]]: Ikuto is the pillow for Machi while she is sick, and Suzu because she asked him which causes a three way brawl for his lap...

* [[Last-Episode New Character]]: Michiru, daughter of [[Half-Human Hybrid|an islander and a Yuki-onna]] and Obaba's medical apprentice. First appears during the ''end credits'' of the last episode.

** The manga has since [[~~Retcon|retconned~~]] her into the very beginning of the story: she is now seen helping treat Ikuto when he first shows up on the island. Her late appearance is explained away as a consequence of being the daughter of a snow woman, a spirit associated with winter. She is immune to cold but sensitive to heat, and thus rarely went outdoors to avoid the sun.

She is immune to cold but sensitive to heat, and thus rarely went outdoors to avoid the sun.

* [[Last of His Kind|Last of Her Kind]]: This is what Tohno believes when she thinks there's no more Kappa on the island. She's wrong ... and Chizuru, of all people, knows exactly where all the other Kappa are. Ayane and Tohno never think to ask why her hilariously horrific artwork (which actually looks like outside-world portrayals) always seems to be of Kappa.

* [[Leaning on the Fourth Wall]]: Done time to time, but chapter 65 takes the cake.

Line 319:

* [[Overnight Age-Up]]: Chapter 81-82 for Yukino. {{spoiler|In the end, she [[Fountain of Youth|ages down to a baby]], much to Chikage's delight.}}

* [[Overtook the Manga]]: The anime covers a small chunk of the manga.

* [[Panty Shot]]: Much to the threat of Ikuto's health, ''everywhere''. Of the main cast, the only people who don't get frequent [[Panty Shot~~|Panty Shots~~]] might be Machi and Ayane as they wear traditional ''hakama''.

* [[Panty Shot]]: Much to the threat of Ikuto's health, ''everywhere''. Of the main cast, the only people who don't get frequent [[Panty Shot]]s might be Machi and Ayane as they wear traditional ''hakama''.

* [[Parental Substitute]]: After Suzuran's disappearance, Karaage said that he took it upon himself and his family to look after Suzu.

* [[Petite Pride]]: Ayane, much to her displeasure.

Line 432:

* [[The Un-Reveal]]: Before the West Leader's identity was actually unveiled, it's a [[Running Gag]] for Ikuto to ask about him only for something to happen before he gets his answer. While the readers are clued in on the Leader's identity {{spoiler|by Chapter 28}}, but the [[Running Gag]] for Ikuto stays until the climax of the Scavenger Hunt.

* [[Unwanted Harem]]: The women are determined to have the Ikuto, the only male, to themselves, to an often violent degree.

** [[Cursed with Awesome]]/[[Blessed with Suck]]: Ikuto, like the center of ''some'' [[~~Harem|harems~~]], constantly refers to it as both "heaven" ''and'' "hell".

** [[Cursed with Awesome]]/[[Blessed with Suck]]: Ikuto, like the center of ''some'' [[harem]]s, constantly refers to it as both "heaven" ''and'' "hell".

* [[Verbal Tic]]: Shinobu's sentences always end in "-degozaru".

** Typical for the anthropomorphic talking cats (and [[Catgirl|Suzu]]), they are prone to make "~nya" sounds when they speak.

Line 446:

** [[Never Mess with Granny]]

* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]]: Played with. Suzu tells Ikuto that her mother is this, but Karaage, who knows better, says that it is all a facade because Suzuran hopes that Suzu would not take after her.

* [[Yandere ~~(disambiguation)~~]]: Suzu arguably fits this trope the best and has yet to even realize why she fits it so well.

* [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]]: Suzu arguably fits this trope the best and has yet to even realize why she fits it so well.

* [[You Need to Get Laid]]: This memorable exchange:

{{quote|'''Kagami:''' ''Karaage-chan, who is the same age as you, already had his own family. But you-''
