Arisa is a shoujo manga written and illustrated by Natsumi Ando, illustrator of Kitchen Princess. The manga was serialized in Nakayoshi from 2009 to 2012 and compiled into 12 volumes.Tsubasa Uehara and Arisa Sonoda are twin sisters who haven't seen each other for three years due to their parents' divorce. They'd communicated through letters, but finally decide to meet each other again.Tsubasa and Arisa are really different. Arisa is her class' rep, has the best grades and a lot of friends. She is really good natured and everybody likes her. Tsubasa is known as the "Demon Princess" of her school, because she is a Delinquent who always gets into fights, and her only friends are boys because the girls are dead scared of her. Also, she's got really bad grades.So when Tsubasa says that she's envious of her, Arisa suggests they change places for one day. However, there are things about Arisa and her school that she hasn't mentioned to Tsubasa — dangerous things. And when Arisa tries to kill herself in front of Tsubasa and falls into a coma, Tsubasa decides that she must know the truth about Arisa in order to save her.And then she learns of the King...

comment
Poor Communication Kills: Arisa tried to kill herself because she overheard Tsubasa telling her father how homesick she was and she was afraid this would get her taken away from her mother. The King just didn't get Arisa's wish: She didn't want to punish her mother or Tsubasa, she wanted to be with Midori forever because she loved him.

Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds
 Arisa (Manga) / int_7ec94d53
comment
Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: At least three of the King's pawns had very sad lives which made it easier for the real King to manipulate them: The girl who tried to drug Tsubasa and drown her was shunned and bullied; the girl who pushed Tsubasa off a cliff and beat her own aunt tried to commit suicide and is now paralyzed; Kudou, who burned down a house so that class 2B could save the inhabitants and appear as heroes, has a weak heart and has been effectively abandoned by his parents. Arisa's boyfriend wants to "erase" Tsubasa because she accidentally drove Arisa to suicide, because his own twin brother died when he "abandoned" him (went outside to find help). Falling for him and letting him kiss her wasn't a good idea either. Midori's current plan is to get his class famous so that his mother, who abandoned him and his twin, will notice him (or possibly go to her location). Unfortunately Midori finds out she died some time ago so he settles for Arisa's mother.

Never My Fault
 Arisa (Manga) / int_973d220f
comment
Never My Fault: When the students of Class 2-B are confronted with the truth about what Midori did, and what they were involved with, they immediately justify their actions as because of the King's manipulation, despite the fact that all of them were willing to sit by while their classmates were abused and people were hurt. That's ignoring the fact that it was their idolizing the King which gave Midori his power in the first place. Manabe rightly calls them out on this. While it wasn't able to change much in the end, the class's reaction towards his words showed that his words affect them more than they let on.

comment
Unwitting Instigator of Doom: The reason Midori eventually took control of Arisa's King's time forum? It all started because Mariko wanted the king (Arisa at the time) to actually give her the questionnaire of the next test. And Arisa happen to overhear it.

Adults Are Useless

comment
Adults Are Useless: You'd think that when two girls in the same class try to kill themselves in the same year and one of them is the Class Representative the faculty or administration might be looking into it or launching some sort of investigation. Instead class 2-B continues to participate in King Time every Friday without any adults coming in to check on them or ever getting suspicious of the drawn curtains and closed doors or that fire or the dead body or the missing student. Midori learned this early in life when his mother abandoned him and his twin to die while also telling them that the world outside was full of monsters. When Midori finally dared to leave the apartment every adult he met pushed away or ignored him, forcing him to return alone. They were found a few days later, but by then his twin had already passed away.

Be Careful What You Wish For: Played with. Most of the people are overlooking the obvious with rationalizations of "it could never happen to me" until it actually does, making selfish and arbitrary wishes without considering the side-effects. That is, rather than being about wish corruption, it's about the corruption by wishes (having your desires constantly fulfilled).

Informed Attribute: Tsubasa's "tough girl" personality. This is justified by how much of the story's conflicts involve psychological warfare, leaving Tsubasa's physically inclined abilities to have little use and Tsubasa spent much of her time in the manga disguising herself as Arisa in order to learn the truth of her twin sister's life.

Freudian Excuse

comment
Freudian Excuse: Midori and his twin brother Akari were neglected and abandoned by their mother to the point that Akari fell ill. When Midori tried to get help for his ailing brother, he was ignored and rejected by everyone he turned to, causing him to see everyone as a monster. His brother died soon after. This, combined with a bit of Love Makes You Crazy, is what motivates his despicable actions; he wants revenge, but he also wants to help the one person whom he felt something besides hatred for, Arisa. Kudou could also count, as it was his parents' abandonment of him due to his heart condition that caused him to resent the world. Ultimately, he also wanted to help Arisa, who was the only person that treated him with kindness.

 Arisa (Manga) / int_caf89e54
comment
Taking You with Me: This appears at first to be Kudou's intention in essentially becoming the dictator of class 2B, since he's going to die of a weak heart and therefore wants to make as many of the students suffer as possible. Subverted when it's revealed that Kudou only wants to make class 2B the best class in the world for Arisa's sake but does so in an extremely dangerous and tyrannical manner. Midori twists that so the class's fame and/or where they're going will get the attention of his mother, but since she's already dead he'll settle for killing Arisa's mother and humiliating Tsubasa.

Action Girl: Tsubasa is introduced as this, though she starts falling into Faux Action Girl territory later into the series. Justified, however, as the series conflicts requires using lots of mental brainwork to outrun the Big Bad, so her more physically inclined skills are not of much use.
