Line 2: [[File:Pita_Ten22_6678.jpg\|frame]] Kotarou Higuchi, a [[Cute Shotaro Boy]] and classical [[Ordinary High School Student\|Ordinary Grade School Student]] suffering from [[Parental Abandonment]], suddenly finds himself [[The Glomp\|glomped]] by his new [[Verbal Tic]] -afflicted [[The Ditz\|Ditzy]] [[Genki Girl]] neighbor, a girl named Misha. She assures him that she is [[Our Angels Are Different\|an angel in training]] and she is on Earth to take care of him. She then proceeds to demonstrate it by enrolling in his same school (although since she is seemingly older and assigned to the High School section, she still escapes to the elementary wing to watch over Kotarou), following and glomping him at the minor chance and often without excuse,. ~~for~~This situation causes great amusement ofto Kotarou's best friend Takashi Ayanokouji (aka Ten-chan)., ~~This is to the~~and great annoyance ofto Koboshi Uematsu, a girl who has a crush on Kotarou, who immediately sees Misha as a rival. Complications (and [[Hilarity Ensues\|hilarity]]) ensues when, after Kotarou discovers that Misha is ''really'' an angel, a demon apprentice named Shia arrives in town. But, while Misha is just inefficient as an angel, Shia is absolutely ''[[Reluctant Monster\|''awful]]'' ~~[[Reluctant Monster\|~~as a demon]], since she is [[Ill Girl\|anemic]], sweet, considerate, and a [[Yamato Nadeshiko\|perfect housewife]]. Then, when Misha and Shia move in together, even with both girls being aware of each other identity and alignment, it doesn't take long to predict that things are not going to end well. ~~This series~~'''''Pita-Ten''''' is incredibly sweet and light-hearted, even with the [[Dark and Troubled Past\|dark past]] of almost all the cast. The original manga of this series was drawn by [[Koge-Donbo]], the mangaka who designed ''[[Di Gi Charat]]'' and ''[[A Little Snow Fairy Sugar]]'', so expect the same kind of [[Moe Moe]] character design. ----▼ ~~This series provides examples of:~~ ▲---- {{tropelist}} * [[The Ace]]: Ten-chan. He consistently has the highest marks in class, is good at sports, and a lot of girls have crushes on him due to his good looks, not to mention his energetic and friendly personality. However, he reveals that he actually works very hard to achieve such high marks. * [[All of the Other Reindeer]]: The villagers to Kotaroh. * [[All There in the Manual]]: The third light novel (which was never translated; see [[No Export for You]] below) reveals [[Only Known Byby Their Nickname\|Nya]]'s real name: {{spoiler\|Klaus Rosenberg}}. * [[Alternate Continuity]]: The anime is separate from everything else. * [[Ascended Extra]]: The Mitarai siblings appear much more often in the anime than in the manga. * [[Beach Episode]]: Anime episode 18. * [[Berserk Button]]: {{spoiler\|Don't hurt Taro. Shia will go on a rampage.}} * [[Bishie Sparkle]] * [[Bittersweet Ending]]: The manga. [[Tear Jerker\|Very much]]. ** This troper found the manga's ending to be meaningful and empowering. Kotarou {{spoiler\|is separated from Misha, but does so on his own terms and finally gains the strength to start living his own life. He doesn't get the girl but he becomes a better person than he was at the start of the series, and that's [[An Aesop\|better]].}} * [[Blessed ~~With~~with Suck]]: {{spoiler\|Kotaroh's ability to see the supernatural and predict death.}} * [[But Now I Must Go]]: More like But Now You Must Go, when in the manga {{spoiler\|Kotarou asks Misha to use her magic to take away his ability to see the supernatural, meaning they won't be able to see each other anymore.}} * [[Canon Foreigner]] Line 27: ** Nya turns Kaoru into one via [[Demonic Possession]] in anime episode 17. * [[Cats Are Mean]]: Nya, a ranking demon, spends most of the series (in the anime, the entire series) in the body of a black cat. * [[~~Colour~~Color-Coded for Your Convenience]]: Misha (angel apprentice) wears a black dress and (demon apprentice) Shia's devilish outfit is mosty white, but when we see (full angel) Sasha's impolute white dress a possible explanation is both Heaven and Hell dress their younger members with the colors of the "Other Side". Subversion when off the job, with Misha's [[Joshikousei\|school outfit]] and Shia's [[Meido\|maid uniform]] Also a subverion in the manga, Misha is forced to wear black as {{spoiler\|punishment for supposedly driving someone to suicide}}. Shia's apparently just so non-evil that she likes wearing white. Line 42: * [[Embarrassing Middle Name]]: Well, embarrassing last name: Mitarai means 'toilet'. This leads to nicknames like Poops. * [[Expressive Accessory]] - Misha's rabbit hair decorations. * [[Fate Worse Than Death]]: Failure to pass the angel or demon exams will result in Misha or Shia ~~to be~~being deleted from existence and all memories of them expunged. * [[First Girl Wins]]: Manga-only, subverted; Kotaru ''knew'' Koboshi first, but Misha is introduced to the readers first. * [[The Glomp]]: Misha is very quick to do it to Kotarou. Heck, the title is a contraction of Pittari Tenshi, or [[Meaningful Name\|Clinging Angel]]! Line 67: ** Anime episode 18 has a scene where Misha's leaning over to look out the window Koboshi's next to, resulting in near-[[Marshmallow Hell]] for Koboshi. Koboshi's ''trying'' to push Misha away, but the way it's animated makes it look like Koboshi's copping a feel. * [[Likes Older Women]]: Ten-chan and his infatuation with Shia, who may or may not be [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]], but is significatively older than him in any case. * [[Living ~~With~~with the Villain]]: Deliciously lampshaded and subverted, since Misha and Shia don't see each other as enemies, even if as a race, they must... but again, both are the most ineffective members of their respective groups, so... * [[Love Dodecahedron]] * [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl]]: '''Misha.''' * [[Mayfly-December Romance]] * [[Mentors]]: Sasha for Misha, and Nya for Shia. * [[Minion ~~With~~with an F In Evil]]: Shia, who can't stop being nice. When she tries to be evil all she does is [[Poke the Poodle]]. * [[Missing Episode]]: A side story where Kotarou has a crush on a girl in his study class. The only indication that this side story exists is that it was mentioned by Koge-Donbo in the ''Writer's Talk'' afterword of the ''Pita-Ten Official Fan Book Vol. 3''. * [[Moe Stare]]: Misha. Line 84: * [[Older Than They Look]]: Koboshi is just short. * [[One-Winged Angel]]: {{spoiler\|Shima/Shia}} goes into this mode when {{spoiler\|the Great Kanto Earthquake hits and injures Taro}}. * [[Only Known Byby Their Nickname]]: Nya, until the third light novel revealed him to be named {{spoiler\|Klaus Rosenberg}}. * [[The Only One Allowed to Defeat You]]: Hiroshi's attitude against Ten-chan. In exchange, Ten-chan mostly ignores Hiroshi. * [[Ordinary High School Student]]: Kotarou, even though he's only in 6th grade.
