aka: ''Mayoeru Shitsuji to Chicken na Ore to'' (''The Wavering Butler and Me, the Chicken'')
Kinjiro "Jiro" Sakamachi fears women, to the point of nosebleeding whenever he is touched by women. It doesn't help that his younger sister Kureha wakes him up with excruciatingly painful wrestling
All that comes to a screeching halt the moment he finds Subaru
After being knocked unconscious by Subaru, Jiro wakes up with all his limbs save his left arm chained to a clinic bed. He discovers the [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing|sadistic side]] of Kanade, who then blackmails him into keeping Subaru's gender a
Looks like Jiro will be safe from girls no more, wherever he goes.
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-Cup Angst]]: Subaru has a pretty decent bust size, but she definitely got upset when Mayoi called her flat-chested while the latter is in denial mode regarding "his" true gender. Kureha is a full-blown [[Pettanko]], and is apparently self-conscious about
** {{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 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-Universe]], Jiro has unwittingly become this to Subaru's fangirls, on account of his (alleged) gay romance with Subaru. In fact, fangirls who approve of their relationship (implied to constitute roughly ''half'' of Subaru's entire fanbase), led by Nakuru, formed their own club, "Let's Warmly Protect Subaru-Sama Committee" (Mimamorugai), leaving the original club, "Shooting Star Subaru-Sama" (S4), entirely to the other
** 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 126:
** {{spoiler|She then turns around and has "Punyuru" call Jiro "Jiro onii-chan" in the manga and light novel. He also falls to the ground.}}
* [[Dark-Skinned Blond]]: Nakuru.
* [[Dead Guy, Junior]]: Played
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Kureha despised Subaru at first, until she easily defeated her. Now Kureha is in love with Subaru, though is unaware that he is a she.
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Subaru's a very mild case, or at least a very quick one. She goes from trying to beat Jirou senseless to having a lovey-dovey date with him and {{spoiler|taking his first kiss}} ''very'' quickly, especially for this genre.
Line 146:
* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: While the opening kind of gives it away, Nakuru is seen early on, but isn't a main member of the cast until several episodes later.
* [[Even the Girls Want Her]]: Subaru.
* [[Embarrassing Nickname]]: Jiro's full name (in Japanese order) -- Sakamachi
** Usami herself has one, as her name sounds similar to "usagi" ("rabbit"), a fact that gets made fun of a lot. It doesn't help that she's pretty petite and the ribbons that bind her [[Twin Tails]] stick out like bunny ears.
* [[Everything Is Worse With Bears]]: Kureha encountered one while wandering around during her club camp outing. She beat it, but not before she broke an arm and got sent home early.
Line 176:
* [[Genki Girl]]: Mayoi, Kureha, and Nakuru.
* [[Girlish Pigtails]]: Kanade and Usami.
* [[Girls Love Stuffed Animals]]: Subaru and the "Lost Sheep"
* [[Goofy Print Underwear]]: Subaru's animal-print panties on the two occasions she was
* [[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.
Line 194:
* [[Hidden Eyes]]: Happens to Subaru a lot.
* [[High-Pressure Emotion]]: Subaru
* [[Hilariously Abusive Childhood]]: Yakemi and Kureha used Jiro as a punching bag most of his life. This [[Made of Iron|made his body incredibly tough]], but also developed his nosebleed
* [[Hopeless Suitor]]: In the anime at least, practically anyone not named Subaru Konoe. It's not certain if Kanade was just teasing him or if she did have feelings for him, and while Usami seems to clearly like him, it seems she doesn't have much of a chance. Nakuru meanwhile seems to have some hints of liking him in episode 13, but she seems more interested in [[Shipping]] Jiro with Subaru, [[The Masquerade|who she doesn't realize is a girl]].
** Subaru has a look on her face that seems to invoke this trope shortly after Jiro publicly confesses his love to Kanade in episode 6. Luckily for her, Kanade turns him down publicly as well and then later explains to Subaru they did that to avoid the S4 girls thinking he had the hots for Subaru and beating him up as a result.
Line 205:
* [[In-Series Nickname]]: "Jiro" for Kinjiro. And he prefers to be called as such, thanks to the embarrassing nature of his real name.
** Also "Bakachiki" from Usami.
* [[Instant Fanclub]]: Subaru has an all-female one. It undergoes a schism as [[Yaoi Fangirl|some members]] don't object to Jiro's [[Mistaken for Gay|(alleged) relationship]] with Subaru, while [[:Category:Yandere
* [[It Amused Me]]: Pretty much the reason behind almost anything Kanade does.
* [[I Just Want to Have Friends]]: Usami is a [[Loners Are Freaks|loner]] initially, but eventually starts to hang out with Jiro and other girls.
Line 214:
** 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
* [[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 with a Heart of Gold|always means well even while doing a number on Subaru, Jiro, Usami and Mayoi]].
* [[Kick Chick]]: Usami.
Line 227:
** In the [[Light Novel]] and [[Manga]], Kureha tries to convince Subaru that Jiro is one during their pool visit, saying he [[All Men Are Perverts|watches elementary girls going to school while naked and keeps trying to get Kureha to bathe with him]]. Subaru jokingly repeats these stories to Jiro, but assures him she doesn't believe them.
* [[Loners Are Freaks]]: Usami initially. Her intro in episode 5 even emphasizes it as she does things by herself in contrast to other girls who are talking and having fun with each other.
* [[Lovable Alpha Bitch|Lovable Alpha]] [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]]:
* [[Love Epiphany]]: Subaru experiences a subtle one in episode 7 after Jiro clears up the misunderstanding with when he went to Usami's apartment earlier.
** Seems to happen to Nakuru as well at the end of episode 13 after looking at a [[Bishie Sparkle|sparkling, much cooler looking for some reason]], Jiro. She responds by running away and leaving her food for Jiro to pick up.
Line 244:
* [[Megaton Punch]]: Jiro is on the receiving end of these a lot.
* [[Meido]]: As expected of an [[Ojou]], Kanade has a few around her mansion. At one time she also dresses up as one to compete with Subaru over who can best serve Jiro and Kureha.
** Mayoi was also forced into becoming one for the Suzutsuki household (besides her other job in a [[Maid Cafe]]
* [[Megane]]: Jiro and Nagare.
* [[Meganekko]]: Nakuru (it's also her [[Fetish]]) and Subaru (as "Punyuru").
Line 266:
{{quote|'''Subaru:''' "We spent all day working up a sweat. I thought a full day of moving our bodies like that was too long, but leave it to Jirou to say he couldn't stop because he was getting so fired up."}}
** Especially the [[Beach Episode]], where Subaru was wondering if he likes them [[Big Breasts, Big Deal|big]]. Jiro, thinking she is referring to the water melon the girl has he agrees. Even added they are taster that way much to Subaru's shock.
* [[Only Sane Man]]: It's common in these types of series to have some thinly veiled [[Boke and Tsukkomi Routine|manzai]] routines as conversations, but these seem to comprise half of Jiro's conversations in the [[Light Novel]]
* [[Overprotective Dad]]: Subaru's dad, Nagare. He definitely means well; too bad he's blind to the fact that his little girl is already turning into a young lady who needs support outside familial ties.
** This trope is likely why Kanade knocks out Jiro during the paintball Battle Royale. She probably knew Nagare would lose it had any guy, especially Jiro, won. Considering he was ready to do a mega dropkick on Jiro earlier in the episode for merely taking a bath in the same water as Subaru, and Nagare breathing a sigh of relief when Kanade wins the kiss from Subaru (who conveniently won the yukata contest earlier), she probably saved him some unnecessary wrath from the dad.
Line 275:
** Mayoi's parents died in an accident a year before the story starts.
* [[Pet the Dog]]: At the end of Episode 10 it turns out that Jiro, who apparently [[Forgotten Birthday|spent the entire August 28 - Kureha's birthday - sleeping till noon and eating instant noodles]], {{spoiler|actually bought her a large stuffed polar bear as a gift, partly as restitution for ''actually'' forgetting it last year in favor of a concert, causing her to beat him up and rip his souvenir t-shirt. [[Yank the Dog's Chain|Either way, she still beats him up (in joy)]]}}.
* [[Punny Name]]: Jiro's full
{{quote|'''Kanade:''' "Chicken-kun?"
'''Usami:''' "Sakama Chicken Jiro!" }}
Line 294:
* [[Seamless Spontaneous Lie]]: Kanade is really good at this as seen in the [[Blatant Lies]] trope above. She's less effective on Usami however, who sees right through Kanade's lie about being on the beach with Jiro in episode 7.
* [[Second Year Protagonist]]: Jiro, Subaru, Usami, and Kanade. Kureha, Nakuru and Mayoi are in their first.
* [[Secret Keeper]]: Jiro and Mayoi, concerning Subaru's true gender. Both are being forced to do so by
* [[Serious Business]]: Fangirling over "Subaru-sama" and the issue of what to make of Jiro's alleged gay romance with Subaru. The latter is what divided "his" fangirls between the objecting S4 and the supportive Mimamorugai, escalating into a full-fledged war come the [[School Festival]].
** Kanade's hiccups in Episode 11. Turns out she was trolling again.
Line 331:
* [[Wrestler in All of Us]]: How Kureha wakes up Jiro. Also, Yakemi is supposedly strong enough to beat a tiger with her bare hands.
* [[Writer's Block]]: Nakuru gets one in Episode 13 concerning her BL doujins. She asks [[Mistaken for Gay|Jiro]] for help.
* [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere
** And inadvertently, the S4 is following the same path, with their overprotective attitude towards Subaru and utter contempt for Jiro.
* [[Yaoi Fangirl]]: Nakuru is a brazen one, even amongst her peers at the Mimamorugai.
