    • Mami from Watashi ni XX Shinasai!
    • Averted with Mayu from Pixie Pop, Wakana from Plain Love, and Hinokagu from Kamikami Kaeshi.

    • Kyouka from Hyakuen! has a resemblance to Hikage from Koko ni Iru yo! as well.

  • Moe
  • Plucky Girl
  • School Idol: Tends to be the love interest(s).
  • Shrinking Violet: Hikage (Koko ni Iru yo!), Yukina without her glasses (Watashi ni XX Shinasai!), and Kanna (GDGD-DOGS).

  • Unlucky Childhood Friend
  • Wish Fulfillment: There's usually something a leading character in an Ema Toyama manga wants, and the plot revolves around that character trying to succeed in his or her (usually her) dreams.
