Together Umbrella: Difference between revisions

*** Another one had [[Love Potion|female-Ranma]] cheerfully whacking Ryouga to the ground with it.

** Also, the "carving one's names on a tree, under an umbrella-shaped symbol" version is used several times, especially by Kuno (to Ranma's annoyance, [[When Trees Attack|especially when the tree took it seriously]],) but Genma and [[Hot Shounen Mom|Nodoka]] did this too when they were dating.

{{quote| '''Ranma:''' Even rain that's about to freeze from cold is warmer than my heart. November rain, until my tears vanish, don't stop.}}

* Keiko, a previously [[Flat Character|flat]] member of Nanami's [[Girl Posse]] in the Black Rose [[Story Arc]] of ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]]'', more or less becomes the [[Monster of the Week]] after Nanami catches Keiko under an umbrella with Touga and reacts by throwing Keiko out of the group. Turns out that Keiko does have a crush on Touga, but Nanami's simply a [[Clingy Jealous Girl]] with a [[Big Brother Attraction]]. And Mikage uses it against everyone, pushing the lonely and troubled Keiko into becoming a Black Rose duelist.

** ''Hakaima Sadamitsu'' has Yayoi/the Vulture using an old sketch in a wooden support beam to reveal her feelings to Sadamitsu. He's not amused when he finds it as the Vulture [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|erased his memories of their childhood together]] when it possessed her; therefore, he doesn't know what the heck is going on.

* Similarly, ''[[Candy Boy]]'' has a whole episode devoted to Kanade setting up for one of this for her and Yukino.

* Hayate and Vita of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' share an umbrella under the sun in the [[Comic Book Adaptation|supplementary manga]]. And just to further drive up the [[Les Yay]] of the moment, Hayate gently caresses the blushing Vita while they talk about how it would be wonderful if they could be together always.

* Kyouka from ''[[Kyouran Kazoku Nikki]]'' is probably one of the few people to pull off the [[Together Umbrella]] ''indoors''.

* In ''[[The Girl Who Leapt Through Time]]'', {{spoiler|Makoto, Chiaki, and Kōsuke are all sharing a red umbrella in a flashback. Chiaki loves Makoto, Mokoto loves Chiaki, and Kōsuke probably knows that Chiaki loves Mokoto but isn't interested in her himself.}} [[Bittersweet Ending|(although she doesn't realize it until it's too late.)]]

* Greece and Japan share an umbrella in ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]''. Also, Japan's partner Italy uses the umbrella symbol in a poster, drawing himself and Germany underneath it without really understanding what it means.

* Appears in ''[[Samurai Champloo]]'', when in one episode Jin's [[Girl of the Week]] ends up sharing her umbrella with him when he gets stuck in a heavy downpour without one.

** And it is somewhat implied that {{spoiler|he'll come back for her when her mandatory time on the island has ended}}, so there's hope for the "togetherness" part yet.

* Played straight in the ''[[Fruits Basket]]'' anime, where we have a scene where Yuki offers his umbrella to Tohru on the way home from school, much to Kyo's dismay.

** Also played with in the manga, where Tohru offers her umbrella to Kyo, since (as the Cat) he's utterly miserable in the rain. He gets flustered and angry, [[Cannot Spit It Out|and turns her down]].

* ''[[Paranoia Agent]]'': Briefly glimpsed in Ikari's dream world, drawn on a door in a school.

* Done once in a [[Inuyasha]] episode. Miroku's hat had broken and he was left in the rain. Kagomi gave Sango her spare umbrella and Sango shared the umbrella with Miroku.

* In the 10th ending credits to [[Naruto]] Shippudden ([[Beach Episode|the beach ending]]), we see at the end that Sakura and Sasuke's names are written under the umbrella symbol...only to be washed away by a passing wave. [[Ship-to-Ship Combat|Make of that what you will.]]

* Tsuda and Shino from ''[[Seitokai Yakuindomo]]'' walk home this way once. They're aware that they look like a couple doing that, and so is the school [[Camera Fiend]] not far behind them.

* [[School Rumble]] used this 3 times to ship Harima and Eri.

* Non-romantic (or [[Ship Tease|is]] [[Ho Yay|it]]?) example: ''[[Durarara]]'' has a flashback with [[Berserker]] Shizuo Heiwajima standing in the rain by the jail after being set up for a crime, feeling and looking completely alone. Off screen, we hear a voice calling his name. It's a very close friend he lost contact with, who then holds his umbrella up over Shizuo's head as they walk off together. This is the anime version of Tom's defining character moment, as he's been there for Shizuo ever since.

* In ''[[Sasami Magical Girls Club]]'', Anri fantasizes about sharing an umbrella [[Les Yay|with Tsukasa]].

* Played with in [[Code Geass]] for {{spoiler|Lelouch and Shirley's}} [[First Kiss]]. While going to meet her, he sees her standing in the rain and tries to hold the umbrella over her, but a combination of the shocking thing she tells him plus his surprise when she embraces him causes him to drop the umbrella, so they end up kissing in the rain.

 

* ''[[Little Women]]'': Jo and Professor Bhaer have their [[Relationship Upgrade]] and [[First Kiss]] under his umbrella during a muddy downpour.

** In [[The Musical]], it doesn't happen ''quite'' so - Bhaer finds Jo at Amy's wedding, on a day riddled with 'sun showers.' He proposes to her with the analogy of sharing a "[[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|small umbrella in the rain]]."

* A ''platonic'' [[Together Umbrella]] (according to [[Shipping|most]]) is conjured by Tris for her and Sandry in the ''[[Circle of Magic]]'' series.

* You can actually ''hear'' Captain Wentworth's heart break in ''[[Persuasion]]'' when he offers to walk Anne home in the rain with his umbrella, and the for-once-oblivious heroine innocently says she already has an escort!

== Live Action TV ==

 

* Used straight-up for courtship in an episode of ''[[The Commish]]''. A police officer is advised to take his [[Girl of the Week]] to the park. When we see them there it's raining, only it's not a problem as they're both having a picnic under a pair of joined umbrellas.

* Damon and Elena, in an episode of ''[[The Vampire Diaries]]''.

::The main characters continue to share an umbrella even on sunny days, leading others to stare "as if we were both quite insane".

* The song ''Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic'' by The Police plays with this; the singer has a crush on a girl he knows, but [[Cannot Spit It Out]]. As he says in the song, ''"It's a big enough umbrella / But its always me that ends up getting wet!"'' (He gives his umbrella to the girl, instead of sharing it.)

* The Japanese song ''Ai Ai Gasa'' from TegoMass.

* The Hebrew song "Two of Us Together Under One Umbrella" ("Shneinu Yahad Tahat Mitria Ahat") by Naomi Shemer. The refrain, roughly translated:

== Video Games ==

 

* In ''[[Video Game/Legend Of Zelda Skyward Sword|Legend Of Zelda Skyward Sword]]'', look close at the blackboard in the classroom -- there's one of those Japanese umbrella diagrams. Alas, it's too low-res to make out the names.
