Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Ever since he was young, Yushi Inaba wasn't particularly interested in the works of Yōkai. Rather, he is more concerned about real-life issues, such as his school life. Having graduated from middle school, he looks forward to moving in to the high school dorm, away from his uncle's family who, despite of taking him in after his parents' deaths, are obviously not very fond of him (except his aunt).But everything changed when the dorm burned down.Having no other option, Yushi decides to move into a cheap apartment called Kotobuki-sō, for 25,000 yen (about $221). Of course, it turns out it is Too Good To Be True, as the place is filled with all kinds of supernatural beings from Japanese folklore. Fortunately, the other residents aren't exactly all that bad, and Yushi therefore decides to stay in the Kotobuki-sō, beginning a rather unorthodox high school life.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Elegant Yokai Apartment Life (妖怪アパートの幽雅な日常 Yōkai Apāto no Yūga na Nichijō) is a Japanese light novel series written by Hinowa Kōzuki.

Heterosexual Life-Partners: Hase and Yushi. The heterosexual part starts seeming more and more suspect by the time Hase teases about the two of them looking like Kuri's parents (which Kuri latches onto and they both later practically become). It eventually gets lampshaded. | |

Good Is Not Soft | |
| Elegant Yokai Apartment Life / int_21f60711 | comment |
Good Is Not Soft: Do not mess with Hase. Turns out, he is a 4th-degree black belt in aikido. Once he lets loose, not even his Best Friend Yushi can do anything about it. This means that he was probably only holding back during his little 'celebration fight' with Yushi in episode 1, because it was shown that Yushi considers trying to pick a real fight with Hase plain stupidity. Made all the more impressive given how aikido is often criticized for being too soft as a martial art. | |

Black Comedy: Episode 9 has a lovely anthology of tales of near-death experiences, told by the older male residents of the Kotobuki-sō, with most of them showing of the scars they've got from said events. Yushi and Hase get a bit frightened, to say the least. | |

Blessed with Suck: Yushi has been accepted by the Petit Heirozoicon and now he can freely summon the various demons from the book to fight. Except that most of them are either too inexperienced, too specific, or, in some cases, still way too powerful to acknowledge him as their master. Oh, and they come at the price of his life force. Thank goodness that he got professional help from the other residents shortly after. | |

Spell Book | |
| Elegant Yokai Apartment Life / int_42995bec | comment |
Spell Book: There are so many of them that one can actually specialize in using the power of theirs as their main combat style. Those who accomplish complete mastery of them have the title of 'Bookmaster'. Petit Heirozoicon, as its name implies, is a literally AND literary Lighter and Softer version of Heirozoicon. Wherein the original Heirozoicon held the power of 78 demons, the Petit Heirozoicon has only 22 (less then a third of the same amount), based on the Major Arcana. On top of that, most of them are still in training, thus forcing more creative usage of their abilities. The one among them that is reasonably powerful is too much of a wild horse, yet Yushi can - fortunately enough - recall it just like any of the other, weaker demons. | |

Cuteness Proximity: When he sees Kuri and Shiro up close in the second episode at close, Yushi cannot help it but gently pat them both on the head. Later on, when Hase meets Kuri for the very first time, he practically melts from the cuteness. It gets to the point that he ends up becoming something like a surrogate father to Kuri. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
| Elegant Yokai Apartment Life / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Utterly deconstructed with Miura. Yes, he is someone who underwent a lot of Sanity Slippage after the humiliation he has been through that was caused by his female students' false sexual harassment accusations against him in the previous school he worked in, all because he demanded the drama club to... pay attention to his instructions during rehearsal, as well as being a victim of Demonic Possession. However, as Yushi remarks, deep down Miura is still a bad person despite said troubles. Best demonstrated by Miura trying to kill Yushi shortly after having the demon that effectively parasitized his body exorcised from him. Kuri's mother too. While it is sad to see how her lover turned his back on her when she got pregnant, Kuri didn't really do anything to deserve being severely abused and eventually murdered by her. | |

Mama Wolf: Akane, a dog sprit, is fiercely protective of the ghost boy Kuri. Given that she already lost her own child, she gladly became a surrogate mother to him, but still chose to send him to Kotobuki-sō in order for him to get the much-needed love from humans as well. Whenever the vengeful spirit of Kuri's abusive mother comes looking for him, Akane does everything she can to make sure the spirit doesn't lay a hand on the boy. | |

Never Learned to Talk | |
| Elegant Yokai Apartment Life / int_e9a47d03 | comment |
Never Learned to Talk: Kuri the ghost child should be old enough to speak, but never learned because his mother never spoke to him when he was alive. The other residents of the Yōkai Apartment do talk to him, but he doesn't seem to be able to learn how now that he is a ghost. | |

Undying Loyalty | |
| Elegant Yokai Apartment Life / int_f16da697 | comment |
Undying Loyalty: Shiro, the white Shiba Inu, is incredibly loyal to Kuri. When they were alive, Shiro attacked and killed Kuri's mother after she killed her child. Not to mention that he chose to follow Kuri in death to ensure that he wouldn't get lost without Shiro's guidance. The duo are rarely seen without each other in the apartments. | |

| Elegant Yokai Apartment Life / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Whenever Yushi is unable to move on his own, one of the older dudes from Kotobuki-sō are likely to give him a lift...by princess carrying him, that is. He never takes it well. | |

Beware the Nice Ones: While Reimei is usually a cheerful and friendly guy, he will get angry if you upset him. In Episode 4, he becomes hostile towards Takenaka and his friends when they started beating up Yushi. | |

Survivor Guilt | |
| Elegant Yokai Apartment Life / int_feaf12e8 | comment |
Survivor Guilt: Averted. Rather than sinking in pointless angst about his predicament, Yushi focused on not becoming a financial burden to his uncle's family who taken him in after his parents died. Ironically, his aunt flat-out assured him that he could stay with them in their home even during high school, but Yushi didn't take up the offer. | |
