Arc Symbol | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_11e0d645 | comment |
Arc Symbol: Walls, in regards to the segregation of the Black Dogs and White Cats (and what the main couple occasionally compare the obstacles in their goals to). The penultimate chapter even has a panning shot of the two school dorms showing that the wall that used to separate them now a thing of the past. Fitting for the characters' namesake, balconies, of which where some of their crucial developments occur. Some substitutes are used but has the same general imagery, like Romio scaling up to a dressing room to see Juliet, the second-floor landing of the White Cats dorm where Airu accuses them of their relationship, and even the viewing deck of a Lighthouse Point. Crosses. It doesn't just refer to rosaries (a slightly important mcguffin in earlier chapters) but the anime uses the visual of crossing swords to foreshadow the first important climax of the series when Romio and Juliet have to duel in order to keep up the charade and lift Romio's brother's suspicion off of them. In all, it also contrasts the wall symbol in that it's the leads' goal to bring their two worlds together. | |

Chapter 84 has Julio going to the Black Dorms to find Romio and enlisting Maru's help (Hilarity Ensues here, really), just before the Wham Episode of the Prefect Elections. However, a small detail at the end of the chapter becomes very important in regards to the aforementioned Wham Episode. | |

Phenotype Stereotype: Nearly all of the White Cats have pale hair and eyes, being English expies. The exceptions are the "low-class" Aby (redhead) and Somali, implying that it's an aristocracy thing. | |

Gone Horribly Right: Romio invented the Julio persona so Juliet can blend in with the Black Dogs. Unfortunately for him, Julio becomes very popular that he gets alienated. Romio pretending to be a sexual predator to scare off some White Cat primary schoolers and he can be alone with Juliet. It worked as he intended on the little girls...and Juliet. | |

| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_1a74b900 | comment |
World of Badass: An absolute rule of the setting. To put this in perspective, there is a character who was kidnapped by her abusive family, shipped overseas, and torn away from her husband and child. But she managed to overcome all of these things, because everyone in the series is badass, no matter how oppressed or irrevelant to the plot. | |

| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Inuzuka and Maru come into one of the most brutal blows between them all because of a misunderstanding: Maru discovers Julio is really a girl and mistakenly believed that she was forced into dressing up to suit Inuzuka's "twisted" taste, and Inuzuka believed that Maru assaulted Julio (when Maru actually saved Julio from some White Cat bullies). | |

Asskicking Leads to Leadership | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_1cc527d7 | comment |
Asskicking Leads to Leadership: For all the cultural differences between the two countries, one thing both sides agree on is that the most badass students should be the ones in charge. Inuzuka and Persia are the leaders of each dorm and seem to be the best fighters of their year, seeing how much damage they can dish out. The head prefects for their respective dorms are the strongest students in the school, with Airu habitually beating up Romio and Romio admitting that he stands no chance against Cait. | |

| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Chapter 44: Rackdoll Persia, who may or may not have figured out who her daughter's lover was, advises Juliet to break up with him if he was a Black Dog. Why? In Rackdoll's time as a student at the academy, there was also a Black Dog and White Cat who fell in love, and upon being found out, peer pressure drove the two lovers apart as well as to drop out of the school. | |

Persia's mother reveals back during her days in the academy a Black Dog and a White Cat couple were exposed and socially pressured to drop out of school. Consequently they returned to their home countries and never were able to see each other again. As later revealed, the couple was Romio's mother and Persia's father. | |

Oblivious to Love: The two lead characters are really dense. Right at the start of the series it's made clear that Persia had no clue that Inuzuka was in love with her. She also never notices that there are other people with feelings for her, and Inuzuka is equally bad in this aspect. | |

Chapter 85-89: Leon's faction covertly throws the prefect elections into chaos that even the prefects could barely handle, and finally exposes the Secret Relationship to the entire school. However, after all of Romio's and Juliet's friends from both factions stand by their side, the rest of the school is convinced to give the couple a chance and decisively vote for the two of them to become prefects. | |

This is the universal reaction, Touwans and Westians alike, to the ending of the first years' portion of the Sports Festival, when Juliet won by default only because Romio accidentally grabbed one of her breasts and passed out in the process. | |

Shuna and Kougi usually get along well (especially compared to how they treat the other one's older sibling). But siblingcon wins out over friendship when Shuna believes that Hasuki wants to take advantage of Romio's amnesia to get together, and Kougi thinks Romio was only faking it for the same reason, and wind up brawling with each other. Played for Laughs. | |

Not Worth Killing | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_3346f944 | comment |
Not Worth Killing: A downplayed version. The Black Dogs and White Cats fight because that's all they've done for generations, and it's the only way any of them know how to interact with someone from the opposing side. Cats can only be important to Dogs as rivals, and vice versa. So Persia interprets Inuzuka's going easy on her as a 'rejection' of her, a statement that she doesn't matter to him in any way. The Irony is that Inuzuka acts like that because he is in love with her, and by being Oblivious to Love Persia managed to mistake his feelings for this trope. | |

Out-Gambitted: While under surveillance by Airu, Romio pulls this by pretending to be compliant, but secretly planned to sneak away to meet Juliet. However, Airu anticipated that Romio planned this and manages to intercept him, beating him up and locking him in the shed. Romio still manages to one-up his brother in that regard, as he also reasoned that Airu would do this, and enlists Kochou and Teria to help him escape. It happens to Airu again in the very same arc: having backed Romio and Juliet into a corner, he didn't buy the duel between the two and insists that they just give themselves up. What he didn't expect (and the very first time he was visibly concerned) was that the two of them were literally going for the throats. Only because Juliet sent a secret signal to Romio to aim for their rosaries. Romio and Juliet actually anticipated that the prefects (Airu included) would step in before the killing blow(s). | |

Absurdly Powerful Student Council: The prefects decide anything that other students can't. The head prefects have authority that equals that of the teachers.

Pie in the Face: While Romio is escorting Teria and Kochou during the festival, they prank him with a barrage of pies. He ends up with so many on him that they taunt him as the mysterious 'pie man'. It's established that Romio had a tradition of leading the Black Cats to invade Juliet's birthday party each year so he could throw a pie in her face. During the birthday arc, he does this as an excuse to see Juliet on her birthday. Scott's attempts to taunt Romio are interrupted by Hasuki pieing him, though he quickly gets his revenge by throwing a pie in her face when she gets distracted. Romio and Juliet later pie each other as a way of bringing the pie fight to a draw. | |

Empty Nest: Mrs. Persia visits her daughter during the school festival as a surprise, and is a little hurt (though understanding) when she finds out that Juliet already made plans with her boyfriend. | |

Love Dodecahedron | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_4523420b | comment |
Love Dodecahedron: There is the Official Couple, but then there's also their supporting cast: Romio is a Clueless Chick-Magnet, not just with Juliet, but also Hasuki, Teria, Leon and (very debatably for the next examples) Char and adoptive sister Shuna. However, Char is also secretly in love with Juliet, as is Scott and Maru (or rather, with Juliet's male alter-ego Julio). Char, Scott and Maru all "want to kill" Romio for that matter. Hasuki's younger brother Kougi (who other characters believe is a huge siscon, hence another person to have a beef with Romio) has a potential Love Triangle of his own with Shuna and Ameria. And for a little dramatic flair, Romio's mother and Juliet's father are ex-lovers. | |

Everybody Was Kung-Fu Fighting | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_45332ff5 | comment |
Everybody Was Kung-Fu Fighting: Perhaps due to the Forever War between Towa and the Principality of the West, nearly all students at Dahlia Academy are skilled in combat to some degree, ready to fight students of the other side at a moment's notice. And the leaders of both sides, which happens to include most of the named cast, tend to be the most skilled fighters of them all. | |

Meet the In-Laws: Romio decides to take advantage of the field trip to go to Juliet's hometown and formally meet her parents. He already met Rackdoll before (but not in a good way) but there's also the matter of Juliet's father Turkish not wanting Juliet to suffer the same hardships as he did because of a failed Secret Relationship. | |

Big "WHAT?!" | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_4a8c4e5f | comment |
Big "WHAT?!": This is the universal reaction, Touwans and Westians alike, to the ending of the first years' portion of the Sports Festival, when Juliet won by default only because Romio accidentally grabbed one of her breasts and passed out in the process. During Char's debutante ball, when she announces her first dance partner to be Romio. From Romio himself, to their closest friends (who are familiar with the animosity between the two), and all the nobles present. And since this was a televised event, the reaction can also be applicable worldwide. | |

During the short period that Romio has suffered memory loss, he becomes convinced that the White Cats truly are his enemies, and Juliet is no exception. This is a complete reversal of their circumstances before the Love Confession, and, appropriately enough Juliet decides to re-enact the closing moments of Chapter 1 (only this time she's the one who confesses her love to him) in order to get Romio to remember her again. | |

Huge Guy, Tiny Girl | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_4f6d87f7 | comment |
Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: It's not that Romio is huge, but Juliet is tiny compared to him, as she only reaches his chest. Lampshaded when Juliet asked him to help her train for the three-legged race; the height difference between them makes the practice awkward, and they took several adjustments before finding the right position. | |

Book Dumb | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_53136954 | comment |
Book Dumb: Seems to be a chronic problem with the Black Dogs, at least among those from the first year. When they are doing a study session for mid-term tests, most of the dormitory falls asleep in seconds. With that being said, Those Two Guys are the only recurring characters from this dorm who are portrayed as also being dumb outside of academic matters. | |

Mistaken for Gay | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_561dab6b | comment |
Mistaken for Gay: Seeing Romio fawn over Julio (a.k.a. crossdressing Juliet) Hasuki literally falls into a Heroic BSoD because she believes "Romio is batting for the other team". When Maru finds a naked Eigo and Kento in the hallway (their clothes had been cut off by Hasuki), Maru immediately locks the door and leaves them outside. A Running Gag with Aby is that he thinks Romio is interested in him. Romio is horrified, but Aby doesn't seem to mind. | |

Women Are Wiser | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_565106b3 | comment |
Women Are Wiser: At least on the Black Dogs side. Hasuki has the best grades among the first year students of her dormitory, and the twins Teria and Kochou are both Child Prodigy that are already in second year of high school at 14. In contrast, the head prefect Airu seems to be the only named male characters of the Black Dogs that isn't Book Dumb. On the White Cats side, women may not be wiser, but at least they are more prudent. Anne Sieber is the Only Sane Man among the prefects of the dormitory, and Juliet is repeatedly shown to be more rational and self-controlled than her boyfriend. Even Somali is more emotionally intelligent than Aby, her clever yet immoral love interest. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Zigzagged. In the oneshot manga, the Cats and Dogs are explicitly from England and Japan, respectively. In the official serialization, the countries' names were changed to The Principality of the West and Towa, but the characters are national stereotypes (i.e, Dogs using katanas, Cats upholding a code of chivalry and sipping tea) still. | |

Hourglass Plot | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_66907f54 | comment |
Hourglass Plot: After spending their early chapters admonishing Romio for a lousy job of keeping their relationship a secret, Juliet asks him to take her out to the lake (and out in the open, although, as Juliet points out, it was nighttime already so they wouldn't get noticed) on a boat ride, which Romio even lampshades. When Romio wants to take a couple's picture with Juliet, she goes along with it on one condition: that they burn it as soon as it gets developed, since it may get used as solid evidence for their secret should anyone else might find it. In the end they get a "sort-of" couple's picture, and Romio even lists a Loophole Abuse about the photo that he reasons it would never be used against them, and Juliet gladly accepts it. Romio gets mad that his first date with Juliet note which was also her first appearance as Julio doesn't go as he had planned, until Juliet tells him that, to her, a date involves the couple getting to know each other better. Later, Juliet asks Romio out (something that he realizes was a first for her), but that date didn't go as well as she had planned, either. Romio even reminds her of what she said in the first date. During the short period that Romio has suffered memory loss, he becomes convinced that the White Cats truly are his enemies, and Juliet is no exception. This is a complete reversal of their circumstances before the Love Confession, and, appropriately enough Juliet decides to re-enact the closing moments of Chapter 1 (only this time she's the one who confesses her love to him) in order to get Romio to remember her again. | |

All Love Is Unrequited: All over the place, the only exceptions are the Official Couple Romio and Juliet, and Aby and Somali. Scott has a crush on Juliet since the start and is apparently very upfront about it (but she mostly ignores it's unknown if she actually knows about his feelings or just sees him as fooling around). Maru is in the same boat, but he has a harder time with his feelings especially after Juliet was unmasked as Julio. Hasuki, Leon and Teria have feelings for Romio, while Char and Shuna are left a bit ambiguous (the latter implies having more of a Big Brother Worship than actual romantic feelings). Unfortunately for them, Romio only has eyes for Juliet. | |

Breather Episode: A non-canon Halloween Episode was squeezed into the story just before the arc about Juliet's birthday reaches its climax. Chapter 59 is about Romio and Juliet going on a date on their own before Juliet goes back to West for the holidays, taking place literally after Romio's and Airu's fight leading to the latter's Took a Level in Kindness Hazy-Feel Turn and just before the new school year. Chapter 84 has Julio going to the Black Dorms to find Romio and enlisting Maru's help (Hilarity Ensues here, really), just before the Wham Episode of the Prefect Elections. However, a small detail at the end of the chapter becomes very important in regards to the aforementioned Wham Episode. Chapter 109 had Juliet taking Romio to a special spot in her hometown, to mentally prepare him for formally meeting her family. However, the chapter ends with Turkish's arrival at the dormitory. | |

Roaring Rampage of Rescue | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_828a5ca8 | comment |
Near the end of the manga, most of the students at the field trip (White Cats and Black Dogs alike), with a little help from Rackdoll Persia, raid the Persia estate to rescue Juliet. The Black Dogs even Call-Back to their annual tradition (mentioned directly above) during the whole thing, to the White Cats' chagrin. | |

Dragged into Drag | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_849af6e1 | comment |
Dragged into Drag: In the Culture Festival, Romio and a few other boys get tricked into entering a crossdresing beauty contest hosted by Rex. Cait is the only one convincing enough to look like an actual girl, but Sieber forcefully draws him out of the contest because he ruined his own "beauty" image by just being Cait. The actual winner is Kohitsuji because, apparently, not having his entire face shown has become appealing to the audience. Later on, Scott learns to his horror that if he wants to be a prefect's apprentice under Rex, he has to wear a girl's uniform most of the time. | |

| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_8797239c | comment |
Bait-and-Switch: One chapter started with the arrival of a beautiful blonde woman on Dahlia island, only seen from the back note later identified as Rackdoll Persia. Later in the same chapter, a beautiful blonde woman enters a beauty contest, and Romio even wonders how he never met her before. The two women are actually different people, and Romio apparently forgets that the beauty contest is a crossdressing affair: the second "woman" is actually Cait Sith. | |

Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_88359b23 | comment |
Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy: At first glance Inuzuka and Persia look like the exact opposite of this trope, but when they are alone they are arguably an even better example than their namesakes. Inuzuka is hopelessly romantic, has an idealized vision of how a relationship works, and gets embarrassed easily when he is with his girlfriend. In contrast, Persia is serious and practical, constantly has to remind Inuzuka that his romantic ideas are risky for them, and has more controlled reactions than him when she is the one who gets emotional. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode Chapter 18: Airu Inuzuka accuses Romio and Juliet in front of a huge audience, presenting solid evidence to the Secret Relationship. It culminates in the couple having a duel with real swords in order to remove suspicion away from them which they gamble on the prefects ensuring that they stop Romio and Juliet just mere inches from killing each other. Thanks to their rosaries, the two managed to pull off a successful bluff. At the end, Romio decides to aim for a prefect position in order to bring change to the school. Chapter 44: Rackdoll Persia, who may or may not have figured out who her daughter's lover was, advises Juliet to break up with him if he was a Black Dog. Why? In Rackdoll's time as a student at the academy, there was also a Black Dog and White Cat who fell in love, and upon being found out, peer pressure drove the two lovers apart as well as to drop out of the school. Chapter 53: Julio confronts Chiwa Inuzuka with her Dark and Troubled Past: as the Black Dog who dropped out of Dahlia because of her Secret Relationship...with Turkish Persia, Juliet's father. Chapter 55-58: Airu returns home before Julio could leave the Inuzuka household, and she eventually gets unmasked as Juliet in front of him after an accident. This leads to a chain of events that ends with Romio finally besting his older brother in a fistfight, and Airu being convinced to keep Romio and Juliet's relationship secret for the time being. Chapter 85-89: Leon's faction covertly throws the prefect elections into chaos that even the prefects could barely handle, and finally exposes the Secret Relationship to the entire school. However, after all of Romio's and Juliet's friends from both factions stand by their side, the rest of the school is convinced to give the couple a chance and decisively vote for the two of them to become prefects. Chapter 109-110: Turkish Persia finally shows up in person, and voices his intention to have Juliet move to a West-exclusive school. | |

Laser-Guided Karma: Leon's maternal family took away her Western mother Bamy by force to marry her to a duke's family for social standing. When Leon encounters the personal goons under her maternal family, it's discovered Bamy escaped the duke's house after learning Leon came to West trying to see her again, which has led to the family to a precarious situation in their reputation. Lampshaded by Inuzuka, who bluntly shuts them down when they try to blame Leon for the troubles saying they were the ones who forced Bamy to return to West. | |

The two sides halt their fighting and panic when Romio, in retaliation, lifts a statue and starts swinging it about without impunity, hitting both Cats and Dogs.

When someone becomes a Secret-Keeper it doesn't mean they have to support it. Char, Hasuki and Airu all said so (the first two multiple times even), and Maru becomes a resentful one as well, but for a different secret. Chiwa Inuzuka is the only one who broke the trend. | |

| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_9fb11776 | comment |
Non-Lethal Warfare: Neither side fights to kill, despite the abundance of swords being waved around (it's that kind of story), and certain moral standards are strictly upheld. Even duels to prove loyalty like the one fought in chapter 18) are more about showing you're willing to risk killing your opponent. The prefects step in to prevent lethal wounds...usually. | |

Overly-Long Gag: Juliet sending Romio a letter telling him to help her practice for the three-legged race the next day. The thought of innocent skinship between the two of them caused Romio to scream in delighted panic for hours. From when he recieved the letter, to dinner, to the bath. It only ended during bedtime when someone shouts back at him to finally shut up. Romio and Juliet trying to avoid the Wang twins at the Harvest Festival. For five straight panels Romio was screaming: The never-ending (for Maru at least) throng of Black Dogs greeting Julio and giving him sympathy for being Held Back in School. In the end Maru winds up sulking for how popular Julio actually was. The Big Damn Kiss that the manga had been withholding for so long.

Rather early on in the manga, Juliet tells Romio that she must refrain from going out as Julio, since she thought that Maru was starting to suspect her (he was, but for different reasons). This is a subversion, since that didn't stop Juliet from crossdressing again multiple times, all of her own volition. | |

It happens to Airu again in the very same arc: having backed Romio and Juliet into a corner, he didn't buy the duel between the two and insists that they just give themselves up. What he didn't expect (and the very first time he was visibly concerned) was that the two of them were literally going for the throats. Only because Juliet sent a secret signal to Romio to aim for their rosaries. Romio and Juliet actually anticipated that the prefects (Airu included) would step in before the killing blow(s). | |

Arc Villain: Even in a lighthearted work, there are antagonists that try to undermine the plot. However, not all arcs have actual solid antagonists; here are the few that do: School Sports Festival: Aby Ssinia, who uses the festival to gain more popularity while trying to discredit Persia as a White Cat Leader. Juliet's Birthday: Airu Inuzuka, who starts to suspect the Secret Relationship. Winter Break in Touwa: Airu Inuzuka again. Amnesiac Romio: Oddly enough, Romio Inuzuka himself, because he becomes outright hostile to Hasuki and Persia (especially toward the latter) in their attempts to restore his memories. Prefect Elections: Leon Inugami, most prominent opponent of Inuzuka and Persia in the elections, and the one who eventually reveals their relationship to the whole school. Field Trip to the West: Turkish Persia, who forcibly takes Juliet away from the school trip, and decides that she enroll in a West-exclusive high school. | |

When Romio wants to take a couple's picture with Juliet, she goes along with it on one condition: that they burn it as soon as it gets developed, since it may get used as solid evidence for their secret should anyone else might find it. In the end they get a "sort-of" couple's picture, and Romio even lists a Loophole Abuse about the photo that he reasons it would never be used against them, and Juliet gladly accepts it. | |

Everyone Has Standards: In the Black Dogs' first salvo of pies during Juliet's birthday, Hasuki and Scott trade piethrows and insults. Hasuki calls Scott out on a Lame Comeback he made, and to Scott's chagrin the other White Cats agree with her. As much as the Black Dogs and White Cats hate each other, bringing the Non-Lethal Warfare back to Lethal is a line nobody is willing to cross. When Persia and Inuzuka managed to convince the others that they were seriously fighting to kill each other, everyone freaked out. | |

The Bet: Romio and Juliet make a personal contest over who gets to become freshman MVP at the upcoming Sports Fest, with the loser having to obey any command the winner asks. Romio believes this is his chance to go First-Name Basis with Juliet, although she seems to think that he had dirtier wishes in mind. Juliet uses her win for a simple wish: to dance with Romio. Juliet and Hasuki use the orienteering race to try to end their rivalry, by having the loser give up on and leave Romio forever. Romio isn't having any of this and invokes Dark Horse Victory to render the girls' stakes moot. | |

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_b77808f2 | comment |
"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: An extra chapter shows the paths the characters chose in their lives, taking place before the Official Couple's wedding at the Distant Finale. Romio, Airu, Juliet, Hasuki, Leon and (arguably) Kohitsuji's careers have already been established in the Distant Finale itself, as two members of the Diet, a Viscount, actress, teacher and magazine photographer respectively. Char is still studying to inherit the throne. And poor Scott has become her "pet". Tosa became a soldier, Maru a banker and Somali a wrestler. Cait Sith is now a pediatrician with Sieber as his nurse, still the Cloudcuckoolander's Minder. Rex is a fashion designer specializing in lolita fashion. Kochou and Teria pursue their respective fields, and Kochou is inspired by the wedding to try to confess to Airu. Ameria is a model, Kougi a priest and Shuna a policewoman. | |

Storming the Castle | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_b9f472b | comment |
Storming the Castle: Apparently, once a year the Black Dogs would forcibly raid the White Cats dormitory to crash Persia's birthday party. On Persia's 16th birthday Inuzuka uses the raid as a smokescreen to see Persia, under his brother's nose. Near the end of the manga, most of the students at the field trip (White Cats and Black Dogs alike), with a little help from Rackdoll Persia, raid the Persia estate to rescue Juliet. The Black Dogs even Call-Back to their annual tradition (mentioned directly above) during the whole thing, to the White Cats' chagrin. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out The audience during the crossdressing pageant is based on the "gaijin yonkoma" meme. Somali invokes a Titanic reference with Aby during the boat trip to West. Chapter 60. Romio unleashed a flurry of punches on Scott while crying 'ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA'. Yeah, even this manga can't escape Jojos Bizarre Adventure references. Furthering the Romeo and Juliet references is the name of Juliet's hometown: Verora City. The finale has a brief reference to the isekai subgenre in general, complete with Overly Long Title. It's actually schoolteacher Leon telling what happened to Romio before he gets married to Juliet. None of her students believe her. | |

Deus Exit Machina | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_cb71c461 | comment |
Deus Exit Machina: Leon invokes this during the elections, sending the prefects and servants on a futile search for the teachers who she drugged and kidnapped. That way, her minions can start a riot in the assembly hall that, by the time the prefects get back, becomes too chaotic to stop even for them. At the third and final day of the West Field Trip: It is free time for the students, with most of the important players using that time to go sightseeing without supervision. This leaves only a few students at the dorm to protest Turkish's intentions when he shows up. Explicitly, the large presence of both White Cats and Black Dogs who confront Turkish at his estate on Romio and Juliet's behalf convince him that the couple have changed Dahlia for the better. (he even directly contrasts them to his own past schoolmates) Char leaves to prepare for her debutante ball. Her presence (she is a princess after all) alone would have made all the characters' struggles in the next few chapters much easier. This was actually lampshaded by Kohitsuji. | |

Something We Forgot | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_dc3d72e6 | comment |
Something We Forgot: Frequent enough to be a Running Gag. Not even the main characters are safe. During the harvest festival, Romio decides to join the Wang twins so they won't be lonely, and promises to keep his date to see the fireworks with Juliet...except eventually the fireworks show has come and gone, and Juliet spent the whole thing inside a barrel. In one of the rare occasions that Char allowed Romio and Juliet some time alone together, she even had to tie Scott up with a leash to make it happen. This is actually an Invoked Trope, since Char explicitly says that she's fine leaving him like that for a while. There was an orienteering race where Juliet and Hazuki compete with the loser having to give up on Romio. After Romio invokes Dark Horse Victory by snatching a win from both girls, they reconcile...and almost forgot that in all his efforts Romio ended up hanging from a cliff. During the Culture Festival, a series of misunderstandings led to Teria getting angry at both Kochou and Romio. In the end Teria makes peace with Romio, but apparently not with Kochou, who resorted to Drowning My Sorrows. While in West Village looking for Char, Romio and Juliet split up to make the search easier. Romio finds Char working part-time at a café, and he is forcibly conscripted into working there after accidentally hurting the owner. Romio and Char work the evening shift for a couple chapters and after some hijinks finally close for the night, only to find Juliet waiting for them this whole time, justifiably angry at them. During one trip to Dahlia Town, Romio and Char stage a fight as a distraction to help Juliet escape the White Cat headmistress with Ameria. For the remainder of the chapter, Juliet and Ameria finally become friends, while Romio and Char have to feel the wrath of the headmistress. Juliet has successfully restored her boyfriend's memories, and the two of them are about to have a tender moment celebrating their anniversary, until Juliet's accomplice Hasuki (hiding nearby to ensure their plans do not fail), cuts in just to ruin the mood. In trying to get Shuna off his back and spend time alone with Julio, Maru suggests to have her pretend to be a damsel in distress in order to have Romio come straight for them, so Maru ties her up and flees with Julio. After some time, Shuna eventually realizes she's been had and untied herself, seeking revenge on Maru. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: In the final arc, Romio gets roped into multiple engagements with Hasuki, Leon and Char separately in the third and final day of their school trip. This leaves Romio in despair since this means he won't have enough time for his plans with Juliet to finally meet with her family. Considering Romio's luck, it was rather convenient that Hasuki and Leon got into circumstances that allowed them to find closure in the next two days note a chance meeting with Rackdoll Persia lets Hasuki decide for herself what she wants to do with her life, and Leon having an unexpected reunion with her missing mother. Char's plans aside, this leaves Romio ample time with Juliet after all. They are going to need it, since Juliet's father is not as understanding as Romio hoped he would be. | |

For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself: variant; in both the Halloween Episode and the Cultural Festival's costume parade, Romio disguised himself as an anthropomorphic dog. In both cases he was supposed to keep his identity a secret, since he was supposed to rendezvous with Juliet, even though for the parade he was only forced into the costume by Hasuki and her Girl Posse, and he wasn't expecting to meet with Juliet anyway. | |

The Interrupted Intimacy moments get a Lampshade Hanging where, after their secret is finally out, Romio and Juliet try to shake off their habit (although it took two weeks).

(Romio being Romio, his ulterior motive was so they could finally go out in public) Much later, however, this actually becomes a Chekhov's Skill: The couple's stealth skills become especially handy when trying to evade the many guards in the Persia estate. | |

Star-Crossed Lovers | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_e596f27b | comment |
Star-Crossed Lovers: Should be obvious, given the inspiration for the series. The main characters are in love, but the war between their countries has left a strong hostility between its inhabitants even after a peace treaty was signed. If their relationship is discovered, it would be the end of their social lives. Persia's mother reveals back during her days in the academy a Black Dog and a White Cat couple were exposed and socially pressured to drop out of school. Consequently they returned to their home countries and never were able to see each other again. As later revealed, the couple was Romio's mother and Persia's father. | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Romio was in such a bad mood during the days leading to the Sports Fest that he barely acknowledged Juliet's presence when nearby. Juliet takes notice and schemes to snap him out of it. Shuna and Kougi usually get along well (especially compared to how they treat the other one's older sibling). But siblingcon wins out over friendship when Shuna believes that Hasuki wants to take advantage of Romio's amnesia to get together, and Kougi thinks Romio was only faking it for the same reason, and wind up brawling with each other. Played for Laughs. | |

Young Love Versus Old Hate: Another thing the manga borrows from Romeo and Juliet. The two countries have already signed a peace treaty, but there is still plenty of hostility between them. When Inuzuka and Persia fall in love in spite of being in opposite sides, they are hesitant because they would be shunned by the entire school, but ultimately they decide they want to be together even if they don’t know when or if their relationship will be accepted. | |

Running Gagged | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_ec1a1233 | comment |
Running Gagged Juliet's Julio persona. Rather early on in the manga, Juliet tells Romio that she must refrain from going out as Julio, since she thought that Maru was starting to suspect her (he was, but for different reasons). This is a subversion, since that didn't stop Juliet from crossdressing again multiple times, all of her own volition. Played straight later on in Julio's lone appearance in the second half of the manga. The reason why she decided to stop appearing as Julio was because that lone appearance became Leon's secret weapon that turned the entire student body against Romio and Juliet. After that, the whole school now knows Juliet and Julio are the same person and that she and Romio are dating, so Julio doesn't need to show up anymore. (although the manga's ending montage has Julio showing up again, as the winner of yet another crossdressing pageant) The Interrupted Intimacy moments get a Lampshade Hanging where, after their secret is finally out, Romio and Juliet try to shake off their habit (although it took two weeks). Romio explicitly says that they should set an example to get the two dorms to start being friendly with each other. (Romio being Romio, his ulterior motive was so they could finally go out in public) Much later, however, this actually becomes a Chekhov's Skill: The couple's stealth skills become especially handy when trying to evade the many guards in the Persia estate. | |

Anti-Climax: Best shown during the exhibition match between the new prefects (Romio, Juliet, Leon, Aby, Scott and Hasuki) and the retiring ones (Airu, Sieber, Cait, Rex and the Wang twins). Romio and his team are practically at the enemy goal, and he is gearing up to power-throw the winning ball into the gate with maximum force and style, with all the school cheering him on. Right before he does though, he trips and falls flat on his face, with the ball ending up rolling and just barely touching the goal. Everyone is struck silent at such a ridiculous display. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending: By the end of the series, most of the main characters grow up to have successful careers in life. Romio and Juliet managed to change the world (like they promised to do): the two countries are on the road to peace, and the segregation in Dahlia is a thing of the past. And unlike their literary namesakes, they did it without dying. The couple then officially ties the knot, with all their friends and families in attendance. | |

Great Offscreen War | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_f722f635 | comment |
Great Offscreen War: The war between Towa and the Principality of the West, which influences the entire plot of the manga. While for the most part the remaining hostilities are a source of comedy due to the Non-Lethal Warfare, it's occasionally portrayed seriously, as the fact that the two countries are still not in friendly terms years after the war ended means that there is real social repercussion for "siding with the enemy", putting the main characters in constant risk. One couple between two countries in the past highlights this. | |

Running Gag | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Oh so many. Both Scott and Romio having bad luck come their way. Romio "dying" of High-Pressure Emotion. And always getting caught by surprise by Juliet's Arrowgrams. Scott suffering several punishments from Char. And being used as a basketball, shield, boomerang, etc. And Romio's favorite greeting for Scott usually involves his feet. His glasses suffering under all those circumstances and more, to the point that Scott had plenty of spares. Tosa and Kohitsuji trying to get Maru more involved with some of their activities, and Maru failing to get them off his back. Also, Maru pining for Julio. The two main characters acting all tsundere towards each other backfiring horribly. See Reflexive Response: All Interrupted Intimacy moments result in either Romio or Juliet inflicting Amusing Injuries on each other, but especially the former. The Black Dorm headmaster's Elmuh Fudd Syndwome has a Phrase Catcher roughly translated to "I have no idea what he's saying." And that he instantly drops his Speech Impediment whenever he bickers with the White Dorm headmistress. Girls getting into weird situations with animals. When someone becomes a Secret-Keeper it doesn't mean they have to support it. Char, Hasuki and Airu all said so (the first two multiple times even), and Maru becomes a resentful one as well, but for a different secret. Chiwa Inuzuka is the only one who broke the trend. | |

Forever War | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_fbb54ba6 | comment |
Forever War: In theory, the war between Towa and the Principality of the West ended years ago. In practice, the two countries are as hostile as ever and merely switched to Non-Lethal Warfare. | |

Go-Karting with Bowser | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_fc4f5f19 | comment |
Go-Karting with Bowser: According to Romio, one trip to Dahlia Town had Maru challenge Shuna into an eating contest. Since Maru is well-aware of Shuna's skill ever since their first meeting back in winter break, this might be because he believes this is one contest he can come out on top. The actual results are never revealed. | |

Foe Romance Subtext | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_fc9b6be5 | comment |
Foe Romance Subtext: Invoked. Due to Inuzuka and Persia's web of lies to conceal their Secret Relationship, it is currently believed that 1), he sexually harassed her, and 2) he wants her dead. For some reason, nobody finds these two 'facts' contradictory. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Boarding School Juliet (Manga) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Played straight later on in Julio's lone appearance in the second half of the manga. The reason why she decided to stop appearing as Julio was because that lone appearance became Leon's secret weapon that turned the entire student body against Romio and Juliet. After that, the whole school now knows Juliet and Julio are the same person and that she and Romio are dating, so Julio doesn't need to show up anymore. (although the manga's ending montage has Julio showing up again, as the winner of yet another crossdressing pageant) | |
