Here's a list of characters and related tropes for the manga series ''[[Yotsuba&!]]''.
== The Koiwai Family ==
=== Yotsuba Koiwai ===
Line 61:
* [[Badass]]: Hey, she WAS the only one to disarm the revenge-fueled water-gun toting Yotsuba. She even blasted Yotsuba right back! Nobody else is that badass.
* [[Chaste Teens]]: Despite her attractiveness, she is never seen dating anybody, though Fuuka said she used to have a boyfriend. Some fans suspect [[Les Yay|she and Torako are an item]], though.
* [[Cool Big Sis]] Yotsuba thinks she's the prettiest of them all.
* [[Cuteness Proximity]]: She gets this every so often around Yotsuba.
* [[Long Hair Is Feminine]] In contrast to the short haired Torako.
Line 74:
The middle Ayase girl, and the one who seems to have the worst luck. Her travails, of course, go right over Yotsuba's head.
* [[Big Ol' Eyebrows]]: Though Koiwai in chapter 67, thinks this just makes her cuter.
* [[Butt Monkey]]: Her life can kinda suck.
Line 81:
* [[Generic Cuteness]]: Often mocked for either her plain looks, eyebrows, or [[Hollywood Pudgy|pudginess]] compared to her older sister Asagi. Doesn't stop her from being popular with her classmates though.
** Kind of [[Averted Trope|averted]] in that she is actually regarded as being fairly attractive. For instance, Jumbo's [https://web.archive.org/web/20130403070426/http://koiwai.biz/eng/v1/ch04/04_14130x189_jpg.htm initial reaction] to her was to exclaim that she's a bishoujo, only to drop the "Bi" when he meets Asagi because...well, it's ''Asagi''.
* [[Girl Next Door]] Lives right next to the Koiwai's and is the first to meet Mr. Koiwai.
* [[Go Nagai Sideburns]]: Her hair seems to give this sort of visual effect, kinda like [[Azumanga Daioh|Kagura]].
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]: Her sense of humor leaves much to be desired.
* [[
* [[Joshikousei]]
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Shows off a lot more skin than any other female character, including wearing short skirts, swimsuits and turning up in sexy outfits on colour pages.
Line 103:
* [[Girls Love Stuffed Animals]]: She likes playing with her teddy bears with Yotsuba.
* [[Granola Girl]]: She tends to be more environmentally conscious than others as well as having a fondness for recycling, but she doesn't mind eating meat or helping clean fish for a meal.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: With Miura in terms of looks and general personality but a bit subverted in that she looks like the girly girl but has some tomboy interests such as liking frogs, cicadas and not being afraid to skin open a fish.
Line 111:
-------
* [[Happily Married]] She at the very least isn't complaining about her marriage.
* [[Housewife]] Is seen taking care of the house.
* [[Long Hair Is Feminine]]: Subverted her hair is short like a boy's but she certainly is girly.
* [[Like Father, Like Son|Like Mother Like Daughter]]/[[Generation Xerox]]: She and Asagi are quite alike, but don't tell either that.
* [[No Name Given]]: Her given name has not been revealed so far. Only known as Mrs. Ayase.
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]] / [[Team Mom]]: Yotsuba calls her "mom". She treats Yotsuba as if she were her own daughter.
Line 122:
-------
* [[Happily Married]]
* [[No Name Given]] Just like his wife.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: He's coming close to it due to him working all the time. Asagi rejects him for it.
* [[Salaryman]] Hardly at home due to working.
* [[Satellite Character]]

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: On occasion. Especially with Yotsuba and Jumbo concerned.
* [[Everything's Better with Princesses]]: Yotsuba thinks she's a princess after seeing the apartment complex she lives in.
* [[Jerkass]]: Miura has a tendency of playing mean pranks on Yotsuba and not hesitating to be blunt around Yotsuba. Which usually [[Butt Monkey|backfire]].
* [[Miko]]: Was dressed for the part during the Autumn Festival.
* [[She Cleans Up Nicely]]: Pulls this off as one of the matsuri maidens during the autumn festival.
* [[Shorttank]]: She prefers sports clothing to tanktops, though.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: With Ena, a bit subverted in that she looks like the tomboy but has some girly girl interests. She hates frogs, bugs and is scared priceless about cutting open a fish.

* [[Butt Monkey]]: He brings it upon himself for being mean to Yotsuba.
* [[Drop-In Character]] He occasionally visits the Koiwai's mostly to mess with Yotsuba.
* [[The Friend Nobody Likes]]: Koiwai and Jumbo put up with him more than hang out with him. Yotsuba doesn't hold back from getting angry at him.
* [[Jerkass]]: From pulling mean pranks on Yotsuba to teasing her any chance he gets. ''Why'' he's the [[Butt Monkey]].
* [[Kick the Dog]]: He initially went out of his way to be mean to Yotsuba, though he seems to be [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|getting better]].
Line 206 ⟶ 205:
