Line 31:
** Girls sticking their tongues out, usually as a sign that they're turned on or being mischievous.
** There is not a panel, not a chapter, but an ''entire volume'' dedicated to asses. More specifically, Nana's ass.
* [[The "B" Grade]]
* [[Beady -Eyed Loser]]: Kaoru
* [[Betty and Veronica]]: In the mind of the class president's sister in regards to Kaoru, with Nana as Betty and Tachi as Veronica.
* [[Beta Couple]] {{spoiler|Black Labels' Shuutarou Sarashina and Mitsuko Tachibana}}
Line 66:
** [[Man in A Bikini]]: Well, it's a Playboy bunny-girl swimsuit (including ears), but the effect is the same.
* [[Cross-Popping Veins]]
* [[Cuffs Off, Rub Wrists]]: Averted, except for Tachi's initial outburst; she complains about her limbs being numb after Kaoru unties her.
* [[Decompressed Comic]]: To the point where one twenty-page issue started at the beginning of a "breather" and ended after the first spank - out of ten. But it's mostly build-up for the massive amounts of fanservice.
* [[Did I Just Say That Out Loud?]]: In Chapter 18 Kaoru brings a ball gag and then does an [[Info Dump]] about the different types of gag used in S&M including images which makes it seem to be directed only to the reader, then we get a [[Beat Panel]] of Nana giving him an odd look.
Line 80:
** Kaoru starts off the series having a wet dream about Nana as his personal slave.
** A couple of chapters later, so does Nana.
* [[Eyelid -Pull Taunt]]
* [[Face Palm]]: Several.
* [[Fan Boy]]: Kaoru.
Line 89:
** Nearly all of it's justified by [[Male Gaze|schoolboy ogling]] or the 'breathers', out in the open, so it doesn't quite count. Nana (sorry, "[[Hot for Teacher|Chigusa-sensei]]") [http://www.mangareader.net/926-40011-4/nana-to-kaoru/chapter-24.html tutoring Kaoru] is true, old-fashioned why-the-hell-is-she-wearing-that fanservice. It's not just the stockings. It's not just the [[Meganekko|glasses]]. It's the stockings and the glasses and the tight blouse ''and'' the short skirt ''and'' the teasing.
** Well, Nana seems to have a thing for doing this to him. In a mini-arc, she invites him to a shrine visit, alone...and really [[Yamato Nadeshiko|she looks and acts the part for the day]], [[Tsundere|most of the time]]. Bonus points for wearing a special yukata that announces that she's ''looking for a husband.'' She couldn't be more blatant with him without sticking her hands down his trousers.
*** This is also a rather funny [[Shout -Out|author gag]] to ''[[Happy Negative Marriage]]''. It also doubles as [[Author Appeal]] - nearly all his characters encounter marriage as a theme at some point.
* [[Fetish Fuel Station Attendant]]: Between [[Taste the Rainbow|Nana, Tachi and Mitsuko,]] we have the following, though Nana still takes the cake:
** [[Bokukko]]
Line 128:
** Probably a meta example for some readers.
* [[Harsh Word Impact]]: The speech bubbles containing Kaoru's lambasting of the class president nearly crowd him out of the panel.
* [[Hello, Nurse!]]: Subverted with Nana. Yes, she's gorgeous (in line with the trope), but her imperious manner scares people off.
* [[Hidden Eyes]]
* [[Hopeless Suitor]]:
Line 163:
* [[Moment Killer]]: Several. Some intentionally.
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Nana.
* [[Nipple -and -Dimed]]
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: In Chapter 11 when the guys are putting the faces of various girls from their class on the bodies of fetish models, some of the names are similar to real Japanese glamor models.
* [[Not So Different]]
Line 171:
* [[Oh Crap]]: "Oh crap" faces are frequent. Kaoru's and Nana's are especially amusing.
* [[Only Six Faces]]: Nana shares a lot of features with the other female leads in Amazume's series.
* [[Out -of -Genre Experience]]: The track day. Excuse me, I ordered a BDSM romance manga; this is highschool sports manga.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Kaoru's father is deceased and his mother is a nurse, while [[The Faceless|Nana's mother]] is almost never home.
* [[Playing to The Fetishes]]: Ryuta Amazume has started making a career out of taking various fetishes and putting them into romantic comedies: BDSM this time.
Line 197:
** And check the chapters about the spanking. Kaoru himself gets a lecture from the fetish store lady about the whole thing.
*** Said store lady {{spoiler|later turns out to be the personal slave and model of Kaoru's favorite BDSM master,}} which is played up in the [[Time Skip]] concurrently running "sequel", ''Nana to Kaoru: Black Label''. So she'd have very, very good reason to know the ins and outs of BDSM technique.
* [[Shout -Out]]: Little Nana [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/nana_to_kaoru/v07/c049/3.html bringing home a certificate for winning the] [[Dragonball|Tenkaichi Tournament]].
* [[Smug Snake]]: The student council president, who openly accosts Kaoru when they're alone, demanding he get on his hands and knees to ''beg'' to see an email when the group gets split up, talking about how he's more deserving of Nana 'cause... well, [[Bishonen|'cause.]]
** And perhaps because of his [[Smug Snake]] personality, his claims get [[Shut UP, Hannibal|epically countered]] by Kaoru, as described in the [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] described earlier in the article. To quote, after explaining exactly why he and Nana ''aren't'' suited for each other:
Line 215:
* [[Those Two Guys]]: Kaoru's friends.
* [[Time Skip]]: A minor one. The "sequel", ''Nana to Kaoru: Black Label'' takes place during summer vacation, where Kaoru and Nana end up being tutored on proper BDSM technique by Kaoru's favorite author. Both are running concurrently, with Black Label having ''much'' more adult content (open nudity, for one).
* [[Tiny Guy, Huge Girl]]: One chapter shows Kaoru [http://www.mangareader.net/926-37767-10/nana-to-kaoru/chapter-8.html has to stand on tiptoe] to whisper into her ear.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Tachi and Nana respectively, although Tachi is more obviously feminine during the breathers.
* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: Kaoru's been running every morning ever since Nana was accosted by shoplifters during a breather. By chapter 15, he can sprint around town without even breaking a sweat, whereas the much more athletic (on paper) student council president can barely keep up. Similarly, it's spelled out very clearly that Kaoru is every bit Nana's match intellectually, he just has trouble focusing on studying.
