Hyouka (氷菓note "Ice Cream") is a mystery novel written by Honobu Yonezawa, serving as the first volume in a total of six in the Classic Literature Club (古典部 - Koten-bu) series. It was turned into an anime in the spring of 2012, produced by Kadokawa Shoten, animated by Kyoto Animation and directed by Yasuhiro Takemoto, with Shoji Gatoh serving as series composer, and Futoshi Nishiya serving as character designer; the series covered the first four volumes of the novel that had been published to that date. A manga counterpart was started in January 2012 in Monthly Shonen Ace.The story follows a lackluster teenager by the name of Houtarou Oreki who, while cursing his first year of high school, lives by his motto "If I don't have to do it, I won't. If I have to do it, I'll make it quick". Nonetheless, things don't go as planned, as Oreki becomes involved with his high school's "Classics Club" at the behest of his elder sister. There, he meets Eru Chitanda, an apparently happy-go-lucky girl belonging to a very wealthy family who, besides having an extraordinary memory, possesses a level of curiosity far exceeding that of anyone Oreki has ever seen. Alongside the curious Chitanda, the chipper Satoshi, and the strict Ibara, Oreki will find himself pushed into using his untapped talent in solving various mysteries ranging in nature and scope throughout his foreseeable high school days.After five years, the anime series was finally licensed for an English language release by FUNimation, who released the series in two parts as Blu-ray/DVD combo packs in July and September of 2017. The English dub is also available for viewing here.A live-action film based on the series, Hyouka: Forbidden Secrets, was released in 2017. It stars Kento Yamazaki as Oreki and Alice Hirose as Chitanda.Fan Translations of the original Hyouka novel series can be read here. This includes the yet-to-be adapted volumes It walks by past and Even though I'm told I now have wings. | |

Daydream Surprise | |
Hyouka / int_118a41d5 | comment |
Episode 22: Chitanda sadly explains to Oreki that, although her land is neither the most beautiful nor full of potential, she still wanted him to see it; she makes herself completely vulnerable before him so that he can understand her better. After this impassioned monologue, Oreki nearly confesses to her in a Daydream Surprise, only to hold back at the last moment, to the dismay of shippers everywhere. All this happens amidst falling Cherry Blossoms; an ethereal, pink-infused scene. | |

Heroic BSoD: Houtarou goes through a particularly nasty one in episode 11 once he realizes that he was totally wrong and that Irisu was lying to him in order to manipulate him into writing the script. Also, judging from his actions in episodes 10 and 11, Satoshi is veering dangerously close to one as well. As of episode 17,he is most DEFINITELY in the midst of one. | |

Dull Eyes of Unhappiness | |
Hyouka / int_174d487f | comment |
Dull Eyes of Unhappiness: Episode 16; Oreki is about to talk of his thoughts on the Juumoji case, which excites Chitanda. But when he denies her curiosity by telling her it involves an "adult topic" and she can't hear him out, her reaction is nothing less of this trope. It's pretty hilarious. The topic is extortion, by the way. | |

Always Someone Better | |
Hyouka / int_19d1c1ae | comment |
Always Someone Better: Brought to the forefront for several characters during the Kanya Fest arc. Satoshi realizes, once again, that he will never have the effortless detective skill that Houtarou does. Mayaka wonders whether her manga will ever be as good as A Corpse by Evening. This trope is the whole reason behind both Kouchi's Jerkass attitude and the Juumoji Incident. Kouchi is deliberately avoiding reading A Corpse by Evening so she won't have to acknowledge that something so good was drawn by someone who did it as a lark. Tanabe (the true identity of Juumoji), likewise, is frustrated that said artist refuses to go back to drawing. He considers it a disservice to the world not to express such incredible talent when there are people like Tanabe who want that skill but will never achieve it. | |

Stealth Pun | |
Hyouka / int_1e7c47ab | comment |
Stealth Pun: "Hyouka" means "frozen treat", or, commonly, "ice cream", in Japanese. The message that Jun Sekitani left for Chitanda by making the name of the anthology "Hyouka" was "I scream", a pun derived from sounding like "ice cream". Houtarou personally views it as an Incredibly Lame Pun, however. It shows up again in the OVA, which is set after episode 11. Houtarou is still in his funk after dealing with Irisu's deception, and he's presented with a case that helps snap him out of it. The solution? "Hyouka", ice cream, once again. This one gets commented on as well, as the mention of "ice cream" reminds Mayaka that Satoshi needs to finish the anthology. | |

Know-Nothing Know-It-All: Kouchi, a member of Ibara's Manga Society Club, professes her patronizing thoughts on the club's festival booth, making light of their efforts, getting to Ibara easily. The way Kouchi smiled when Ibara finally responded to her remarks was quite trolly. Apparently, the members invoked this trope as a part of a Batman Gambit. | |

Hyouka / int_2dc0d2bf | comment |
Eclectic: Satoshi. Although he's quite an extrovert, his Hidden Depths reveal that he's this way because otherwise he'd fit the negative attributes of the Melancholic type (obsessive, perfectionist to the point of depression) a lot more. He's ultimately a combination of sanguine and a phlegmatic (sweet, kind, witty, teasing, a bit quieter than Chitanda), with some melancholic traits. | |

Oreki gets tripped up by this twice in the same episode; it turns out he's been misreading the names of the Student Council President and the doujin circle that made A Corpse by Evening. What makes the latter example even worse is that the reading is written in Latin letters right next to the kanji... | |

Brilliant, but Lazy: Oreki. He is always complaining about how little energy he has left. Also, the illustrator of A Corpse By Evening. He's extraordinarily talented, but rarely uses his abilities; he only did that one task "for fun" and refuses to create anything else. The entire Juumonji incident was an elaborate, and unsuccessful, attempt to convince him to help with a new project. | |

Stylistic Suck | |
Hyouka / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: The student film in episode 8 has boring music, poor writing, worse cinematography, and even worse acting. Houtarou believes this to be intentional—that the awful lighting (the cameraman turning a flashlight on and off as needed), Jitter Cam, inconvenient camera angles, and the actors' looking into the camera and awkward speech are actually clues that the culprit was the cameraman, driven to kill by the others ignoring him to his face. Turns out Houtarou is both brilliant and entirely wrong (that is, on the question he thought he was answering). | |

Big Fancy House: Chitanda's place. It's quite impressive. The Classics Club meets at Chitanda's in episode 4. When Oreki and Satoshi bike there, the anime takes the opportunity to show off the scale and grandeur of the Chitanda family's land and mansion. Satoshi is a little disappointed when, instead of a butler or a servant, Chitanda greets them at the door. Mentioned again in episode 18. Oreki compares a Japanese castle in a magazine to Chitanda's place: | |

Episode 13, the mother of all blushes is shared by Oreki and Chitanda when she catches him peeking at her cosplay photos. Episode 20, when Chitanda first appears her kimono. Oreki is breathless, to say the least. Episode 21, when Chitanda is mumbling about Valentine's day chocolates and Oreki is trying to figure out what she means, to no avail. | |

Hyouka / int_57be3cd5 | comment |
Anchored Ship: Satoshi goes out of his way to not answer Mayaka's feelings for him. Taken to an almost bastardly level in episode 21 where, in order to avoid giving her an answer, Satoshi destroys the Valentine's Day chocolate that Mayaka planned on giving him. They finally begin dating at the beginning of their second year. Houtarou and Eru end up like this as well, although for different reasons. | |

Four-Temperament Ensemble | |
Hyouka / int_65bc92fc | comment |
Four-Temperament Ensemble: Sanguine: Chitanda. She fits the outgoing Proper Lady type to the letter. Choleric: Ibara. Although she's not a leader, she gets very passionate over the things she cares about, as seen during the cultural festival and the Valentine's Day episode, and is rather short-tempered and impulsive. However, in her gentler moments, when she's not annoyed, she's quite the phlegmatic. Eclectic: Satoshi. Although he's quite an extrovert, his Hidden Depths reveal that he's this way because otherwise he'd fit the negative attributes of the Melancholic type (obsessive, perfectionist to the point of depression) a lot more. He's ultimately a combination of sanguine and a phlegmatic (sweet, kind, witty, teasing, a bit quieter than Chitanda), with some melancholic traits. Phlegmatic / Melancholic: Houtarou is introverted and somewhat aloof and cynical, but also calm, stoic, reliable, compassionate, observant and definitely lazy, reactionary and (in his gentler moments) docile. | |

Serious Business | |
Hyouka / int_6b35bdff | comment |
Serious Business: The series gives a nod to this, incorporating some Values Dissonance: what seems trivial or superficial to an adult can be make-or-break for a high school student. In the "Niece of Time" arc, an older character is highly scornful of her own (and her fellow students') actions several decades ago, saying that while they thought they were being righteous and revolutionary at the time, she now thinks of the incident as pointless tantrum-throwing that was never going to have any long-term effect anyway. Specifically, the student body took a stand when the teachers decided to cut their beloved cultural festival short in favor of boosting the school's reputation as an academic institution. The students declared this a violation of their rights and staged protests and walk-outs. Notably, the librarian's views change once she's become one of the authority figures that she and her classmates were rebelling against. The "Why Didn't She Ask Eba?" arc sees a short, clumsy student film at the center of both intrigue and personal crises for the main characters. The club president tricks Oreki into writing a decent ending for the film after she judges the original writer's script too weak to run with, pretending that the film's ending is an unfinished mystery to avoid the unpleasantness of telling the club that the original ending was terrible. It's an unpleasant con, but the feelings of those involved are so overblown — from the Literature Club Member's harassing of Oreki when he fails to convey the "true feelings" of the original writer, to Irisu's overly complicated scheme to get a decent ending written, to Oreki's moral crisis when he discovers he's been tricked — that the film's importance seems like that of an Oscar nominee, not a student film that will likely be seen by thirty at a high school event. | |

Arc Words | |
Hyouka / int_7464705c | comment |
Arc Words: Each episode, whether it is part of an arc or is a standalone story, ends with a short phrase that, upon inspection, is related to the plot. The Jun Sekitani arc episodes end with "the niece of time", a reference to the plot's similarity to The Daughter of Time, with "daughter" changed to "niece" to match Chitanda's relationship to Sekitani. The Student Film arc has "Why didn't she ask Eba?", which cuts to the meat of the mystery—if Irisu actually wanted to know Hongou's intended ending for the film, why didn't she just ask Eba, Hongou's best friend? It's also a reference to the Agatha Christie mystery novel Why Didn't They Ask Evans? The Random Stories arc has "little birds can remember", which is a reference to yet another Agatha Christie mystery novel (Elephants Can Remember). The "little bird" is possibly Chitanda. | |

Foreshadowing: In hindsight, Oreki's theory about the end of the student film not only does not fill the gaps that his friends later point out to him, but also misses the very part that would have led him to Hongo, which is the reason why the culprit did what he did. As Irisu was deliberately trying to veer him away from Hongo, she immediately gives the okay for the first thing he presents that makes sense and prevents him from digging further in by showering him with flattery. | |

In episode 21, Houtarou gets seriously angry over Satoshi's actions, which directly hurt Mayaka, and indirectly hurt Chitanda. He goes as far as to tell Satoshi that if the latter doesn't have a really good explanation, he's taking a punch to the face. | |

Romantic Ride Sharing: When Chitanda offers Oreki a ride home on her bike he imagines two scenarios, one of Chitanda being the one to drive the bike while he's the one holding her waist with a colorful background behind them along with butterflies, and the other is him driving the bike while she's the one holding onto him with angels and birds in the background. He refuses the offer in the end. | |

No Social Skills | |
Hyouka / int_bd0d6395 | comment |
No Social Skills: Oreki comes off this way, seeming to be too lazy to bother learning social etiquette. However, as long as it's not too draining, he can in fact socialize with others. He doesn't really emote (although he is shown blushing when praised), is only shown interacting with Satoshi, Chitanda, and Mayaka on a regular basis, and is rather blunt when speaking with others. Still, the fact that he can't seem to say "no" to Chitanda to save his life and that he went out of his way to help Chitanda at least twice suggests that Oreki is actually a nice guy underneath his constant frown. Oreki has also stated that he is "not good with kids" when he and Chitanda needed to ask the inn owner's child some questions. Chitanda doesn't question it and handles the situation for him. | |

Tarot Motifs: Discussed in episode 8. According to Satoshi, Mayaka is Justice, Satoshi is The Magician, Chitanda is The Fool, and Oreki is Strength. Oreki as Strength is an intentionally loaded comparison, since in this episode, he is a lion being "tamed" by Irisu, but at other times the lion-taming woman would be Chitanda or his older sister Tomoe. | |

Shout-Out | |
Hyouka / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Ms. Itoigawa's flashback to the Kamiyama Cultural Festival includes what looks to be a Beatles cover band. Sakamoto-san can be seen in episodes 2 and 5 as a decoration in the library. The Manga Society cosplays a few Vocaloids for the School Festival in episode 12, while Mayaka cosplays as Frolbericheri Frol and her sempai Kouchi dresses as Nakoruru. The following episode, Ibara and Kouchi cosplay as Akko-chan and King, respectively. In a blink-and-you'll-miss it moment, Ibara has one of Azusa's shirts in her room while searching for her lost manga. The second ED shows Chitanda and Ibara dressed as distaff versions of Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, with the names of several Holmes and Agatha Christie stories shown in the background. Likewise, Oreki and Satoshi dress up as Arsène Lupin and Moriarty. The first ED features Chitanda and Ibara in a planetarium, on a circular bed, their feet at opposite ends but facing each other. Holding hands. Sound familiar? | |

Fair-Play Whodunnit: The student film in episode 8. Although the script is unfinished, the fact that the mystery follows all the rules means the director is confident that Oreki and company will be able to tell her the solution even though she can only show them the first half of the movie. Subverted because Hongou did not intend for the victim to actually die and Irisu is lying about why she wants Oreki's help. | |

Mundane Made Awesome: In the beginning of the novel and anime, before the actual storyline kicks in, the mysteries Houtarou solves are pretty trivial, yet most of an episode focuses on them. He solved how a room becomes locked seemingly on its own, why the same book was checked out and in from the school library for weeks, and where the unauthorized flyer for a "ghost club" was hanging (this last one was actually a fake mystery he planted so he wouldn't have to waste energy walking to the other side of the high school to solve a mystery that Eru was curious about). Still, his perceptive thinking has potential, despite his slothy exterior. | |

Alternate Character Reading | |
Hyouka / int_d8827578 | comment |
Alternate Character Reading: Discussed regarding the word "犠牲" ("sacrifice")note which can be read as either gisei—"scapegoat" or ikenie—"offering" in the foreword to the second volume of Hyouka. This may be because Sekitani was forced to be this scapegoat, but came to take the position willingly. This trope is also the origin of the term "Kanya Fest". It appears to be a simple shortening of "Kamiyama", but "Kan'ya" is actually another reading of Sekitani (関谷). Also appears during the festival itself, regarding the mysterious thief Juumonji. His name can be read as "ten letters", the rule behind his series of thefts. Oreki gets tripped up by this twice in the same episode; it turns out he's been misreading the names of the Student Council President and the doujin circle that made A Corpse by Evening. What makes the latter example even worse is that the reading is written in Latin letters right next to the kanji... | |

Ship Tease | |
Hyouka / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: Oreki quickly gains a casual crush on Chitanda, but since his own negativity does a good job of repressing it, it develops rather slowly. Chitanda gradually begins to warm up to him as well, and that she feels the same becomes very obvious in episode 11.5. The second ED, while a nice homage to mystery novels, is a very strong Ship Tease for both main couples. Episode 6: Oreki is briefly excited by the prospect of Chitanda being a soulmate after she explains that she avoids getting angry in order to conserve energy. He's genuinely disappointed that she's joking. Episode 7 is quite blatant, with Houtarou passing out just from fantasizing about Chitanda in the bath, then blushing and flinching when she touches him. It probably didn't help that Chitanda expresses disappointment when she found out the hot springs wasn't a mixed bath. Oh, man, the OVA. It's really hard to count how many times Oreki tried not to glance at Chitanda in her swimsuit. In episode 13, Houtarou finds the photos of Chitanda cosplaying...yeah. It gets especially shippy near the end where Chitanda hesitantly questions about it and they both start blushing. Episode 16 also has a moment between Mayaka and Satoshi, see Kissing Discretion Shot above. Episode 18 features Houtarou and Chitanda going on a pseudo-date. Episode 19. The episode consists entirely of Chitanda and Oreki talking to each other, puzzling out a mysterious announcement to test his deductive abilities. The episode features Houtarou promising to accompany Chitanda on a visit to her uncle's grave, two Almost Kisses, and Oreki giving a genuine smile. And once again, the next episode promises even more. Episode 20 is referred to by Animation Director Chise Kamoi as the "date episode" in the comments of the rebroadcast. And for good reason: the episode starts with Chitanda inviting Oreki to a New Year's shrine visit to show off her kimono, and the two of them exchange blushes when Oreki first sees her. Episode 21: Plenty, as expected of a Valentine's day episode. For starters, Mayaka asking Chitanda if she likes anyone. After a bit of stammering on Chitanda's part, but before the audience can hear her answer, it cuts to a scene of Houtarou yawning. Later, Chitanda starts to explain to Oreki why she didn't have chocolates for him, and ends up nearly confessing only to exchange blushes with Oreki, who only barely comprehends the situation. Episode 22: Chitanda sadly explains to Oreki that, although her land is neither the most beautiful nor full of potential, she still wanted him to see it; she makes herself completely vulnerable before him so that he can understand her better. After this impassioned monologue, Oreki nearly confesses to her in a Daydream Surprise, only to hold back at the last moment, to the dismay of shippers everywhere. All this happens amidst falling Cherry Blossoms; an ethereal, pink-infused scene. | |

Hallucinations | |
Hyouka / int_dd234c2f | comment |
Hallucinations: Oreki frequently experiences a variety of hallucinations, often attributed by him to the level of energy he feels he is experiencing from others. Often these involve perceptions of moving or shifting kanji. At one point in episode 1, he has visions of Chitanda's hair becoming vinelike with radiant flowers in it, ensnaring him as she pleads for his assistance. At another point, he sees the kanji from a set of club posters flood around him as a black sea. He also sees dozens of tiny red Chitanda "angels" tugging on him when she gets him involved in another mystery. Don't worry. He's still very much sane. | |

Ambiguous Disorder: When Chitanda really wants to say something she won't establish any kind of context before cutting right to the chase, leaving the receiver of her comments without any clue as to what she actually meant. If she gets curious, she will convince Houtarou to get her the answers, usually by simply expressing her overwhelming curiosity so strongly that Houtarou has no way out of its glare but to submit. | |

This trope is the whole reason behind both Kouchi's Jerkass attitude and the Juumoji Incident. Kouchi is deliberately avoiding reading A Corpse by Evening so she won't have to acknowledge that something so good was drawn by someone who did it as a lark. Tanabe (the true identity of Juumoji), likewise, is frustrated that said artist refuses to go back to drawing. He considers it a disservice to the world not to express such incredible talent when there are people like Tanabe who want that skill but will never achieve it. | |

Chain of Deals | |
Hyouka / int_f2159a54 | comment |
Chain of Deals: At the beginning of episode 12, Oreki's sister gives him a broken fountain pen for no particular reason as he leaves for the school festival. Later on, a fashion club member asks to use it as an accessory, giving Oreki a voucher for a free make-over in exchange. In the next episode, another student arrives to buy an anthology from the Classics Club booth and Oreki gives him a heads-up that his fly is down; Oreki gives him the safety pin from the back of the voucher so he can fix it. The student then gives Oreki his toy water pistol in return. The next episode, Oreki trades the gun along with an anthology to two members of the confectionery research club for two packs of cookies, as well as a pack of wheat flour. Oreki then gives the flour to Satoshi to help Mayaka in the cooking contest (by tossing it down from a window instead of actually going down there himself, naturally). In the episode following, Mayaka (at his request) repays him by giving him a mirror from her Himitsu no Akko-chan "Akko"-chan cosplay. When his sister drops by the next day, she decides to keep it going by trading him a copy of A Corpse by Evening, which turns out to be essential to solving the Juumonji incident. | |

Hyouka / int_fca96b8e | comment |
Cherry Blossoms: A very nice scene given during the time Chitanda invites Houtarou to her small home district to help her in a doll festival. Too stimulating for Houtarou's energy conservationalism, but he did enjoy it. | |

Dragged by the Collar: Several times in the Niece of Time arc, Chitanda drags Oreki out of the Kotenbu clubroom to investigate something. Mayaka drags Satoshi off to work on Hyouka's manuscript in episode 11.5. | |

Answer Cut | |
Hyouka / int_fd16495f | comment |
Episode 21: Plenty, as expected of a Valentine's day episode. For starters, Mayaka asking Chitanda if she likes anyone. After a bit of stammering on Chitanda's part, but before the audience can hear her answer, it cuts to a scene of Houtarou yawning. Later, Chitanda starts to explain to Oreki why she didn't have chocolates for him, and ends up nearly confessing only to exchange blushes with Oreki, who only barely comprehends the situation. | |

Shown Their Work: The show contains all those little details; the usually-left-unexplored tidbits of school's life that usually doesn't get covered by most anime. Examples include: In the second arc, the quiz club can briefly be seen practicing for episode 13's quiz game. | |
