Snow Means Love: Difference between revisions

 

{{examples}}

* Combined with [[Snow Means Death]] in ''[[Berserk]]'', twice. Once when Caska tries to dissuade Guts from leaving his pre-Eclipse [[True Companions]], right before the showdown with Griffith (this also marked the moment when she had her [[Love Epiphany]]). The other one post-Eclipse when Guts fights off snow-demons to protect Caska. They also share a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]] in the snow when Guts and Casca depart from Godo's place when {{spoiler|Guts wraps his cape around her and says that he would never leave her behind again.}}

* The original ''[[Kujibiki Unbalance]]'' [[OAV]] series uses the trope in its "penultimate" episode.

* Subverted for [[Ho Yay]] value in ''[[The Prince of Tennis]]''. [[Aloof Big Brother|Tezuka]] finds [[Eyes Always Shut|Fuji]] once waiting for him outside an hospital, and so as they speak about the upcoming tournaments, snow starts falling down on them, so Fuji [[Together Umbrella|covers both of them with his red umbrella]] as they go home. Needless to say, the [[Yaoi Fangirl|Tezuka/Fuji fans]] [[Ship Tease|had a field day]].

* It starts snowing in ''[[Kurau Phantom Memory]]'' when {{spoiler|Kurau returns to Christmas, in the same manner as Christmas appeared to the former Kurau years before}}.

* In the [[OVA]] of ''[[Uta Kata]]'', the loving but temporary reunion of Ichika and Sei with {{spoiler|their reflections, Manatsu and Kai,}} takes place during a white Christmas.

* There's a boatload of snow in the [[School Play]] romance the characters of ''[[D.N.Angel]]'' put on and the arc it was based in. Notable in that the romantic leads were played by Daisuke and Satoshi.

* Snow is often associated with Jack and {{spoiler|Lacie}} in ''[[Pandora Hearts]]''. They met on a snowy day, reunited eight years later on a snowy day, and Jack found out {{spoiler|[[Snow Means Death|Lacie died]]}} on a snowy day.

* In "[[School Days]]", {{Spoiler|Makoto aplogizes to Kotonoha and says he loves her in a snowfall at episode 11, a redeeming moment in the anime. Comes complete with Kotonoha covered in snow.}}

 

== Comic Books ==

 

* ''[[Megatokyo]]'': The phrase "sad girl in snow" in webcomics was popularized by the strip, deriving simply from the fact that this is something the creator/character Piro draws a lot of. Specifically [http://www.megatokyo.com/strip/142 this guest comic] by [[Mac Hall]], lampooning Piro's angst, self-depreciation and fascination with [[Moe Moe]], even early in the strip. There hasn't been snow until near the end of Chapter 9. Of course, shortly after it starts, {{spoiler|[[Snow Means Death|Miho gets nuked]]}}.

* There used to be ''[[Order of the Stick]]'' merchandise that pulled this with [[Evil Twin|Nale]] and [[Horny Devils|Sabine]].

* In retrospect, ''[[The Water Phoenix King]]'' used this in Chapter 3 (it was also [[Snow Means Death]], for some.)
