The Girl from Whirlpool: Difference between revisions

* [[Red Baron]]: Yellow Flash.

* [[Romantic False Lead]]: Ren Sarutobi, the Third Hokage's nephew, who is Kushina's boyfriend for several chapters is actually a rather sympathetic example.

* [[She's Not My Girlfriend]]: As they grow up people tend to assume that Minato and Kushina are a thing, forcing him to deny it time and again, even while his own feelings on the matter change over time from disgust to exasperation, to indifference and finally regret when he [[Love Epiphany|realizes that he actually ''is'' in love with her, and have been all along.]]

* [[Shell-Shocked Veteran]]: Amazingly, Minato seems to be a partial example once the war with the Hidden Mist village ends. {{spoiler|Once he gets back to the Leaf Village, he wanders around aimlessly without purpose and has an even harder time connecting with others. The story makes it pretty clear that without Kushina, Minato would be even worse off.}}
