Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

The Visual Novel and Anime:[]

  • Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: The final story arc, in which Haruko and her little girl were closer to each other for one summer than most mother and daughter will be in a lifetime, culminating with Misuzu's heartfelt farewell for her.In particular, when Misuzu shouts "Mama" as she regains her memories.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome: Summer Lights the calming, peaceful piano song that plays when Misuzu first shows up
    • Within the Japanese otaku-dom, Tori no Uta ("Bird's Poem", or "Bird's Song") is often hailed as the anthem of anime/manga culture.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: As of late-2011 Kawakami Tomoko, the voice of Misuzu, has passed away of ovarian-cancer, making any future viewing of the final episodes of Air doubly more painful and sad.
  • It Was His Sled: Misuzu dies.
  • Moe: Par for the course.
  • Tear Jerker: "Goal."
    • The scene on the beach where Misuzu runs towards Haruko while shouting "mama!" also counts.

The band:[]

  • Epic Riff: They have quite a few - "Sexy Boy", "Kelly Watch the Stars", "Playground Love"...
  • First Installment Wins: Kinda sucks having your first album be the most acclaimed...
