Hair-Contrast Duo |
| | Even Though We're Adults (Manga) / int_40b711d5 |
comment |
Hair-Contrast Duo: Light haired Ayano is passive and kind of unreadable; dark haired Akari on the other hand is a lot more plucky and emotionally hands-on. Overlaps with them having a more mature version of the Tomboy and Girly Girl dynamic. |

Introduction by Hookup: Used non-sexually. Ayano and Akari meet at a bar restaurant. They end up hanging out together and kissing, but it doesn't lead to sex. They do, however, exchange numbers. |

Obnoxious In-Laws: Wataru's mother outright dislikes her daughter-in-law's family and derides them for being too lenient with her, though she never makes it Ayano's problem. |

comment |
Expository Hairstyle Change: The passage of time is shown in the characters' hair growth. Ayano starts out with a short bob cut that shifts to a semi long before she gets it cut back to its original length ie: the style it was in when she met Akari. In a flashback to her teenage years, Ayano went from Boyish Short Hair to Girlish Pigtails. |

First-Episode Twist: The fact that Ayano has a husband is revealed to Akari and the audience for the first time at the end of the first chapter, but it's such a key part of the premise that many readers will likely already know about it going into the series. |

Sympathetic Adulterer |
| | Even Though We're Adults (Manga) / int_85cefc44 |
comment |
Sympathetic Adulterer: Zig-zagged with Ayano. On one hand, she isn't in love with her husband and is grappling with the increasing possibility that she is more attracted to women, and all she did was share one kiss with Akari which she then came clean about to Wataru. On the other, the story doesn't shy away from showing that (unwittingly or not) Ayano is still playing with Akari's feelings, on top of unfairly foisting upon her the role of The Mistress in other people's eyes, including Wataru, who feels both humiliated by Ayano's infidelity and confused that it doesn't make him upset in the way that he thinks it should. |

Marriage of Convenience: Essentially the case with Ayano and her husband Wataru. Neither was all that into the other when they were introduced, and both entered the arrangement so as to not end up alone. It doesn't work out. |
