Kids on the Slope (Sakamichi no Apollonnote literally Apollo on the Slope) is a manga series by Yuki Kodama, which was serialized in the josei magazine Monthly Flowers from 2007 to 2012.During the summer of 1966, Kaoru Nishimi (voiced by Ryōhei Kimura) constantly moves from town to town and school to school due to his father's job. Because of his intelligence, his wealthy background, and his nausea problems, Kaoru has been alienated by his classmates and is subsequently seen as an outcast. When Kaoru transfers to yet another school, this time in Sasebo on the island of Kyushu (not far from Nagasaki), he expects the same things to happen as they always do. However, this time his luck begins to change as he meets seeming delinquent Sentarou Kawabuki (Yoshimasa Hosoya) and pretty class president Ritsuko Mukae (Yuuka Nanri), and the trio begin bonding over jazz music.The manga won the 57th Shogakukan Manga Award for general manga. It was adapted to an anime series for the spring 2012 season, airing on the noitaminA block. The anime adaptation is notable for being directed by Shinichiro Watanabe and music composed by the acclaimed Yoko Kanno, as well as being the debut of MAPPA. | |

| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_146f4e0 | comment |
Blind Without 'Em: Averted. Kaoru frequently takes off his glasses, usually to impress Ritsuko. One Impairment Shot shows that he's a bit myopic, but can see well enough to get around. | |

Cruel to Be Kind: Kaoru, who keeps telling Sentarou that going after Yurika is a waste of time and hurts his feelings when he says that Yurika wouldn't like someone of such low social standing, which makes him realize that he went too far that time and he apologizes. He was just trying to keep Sentarou from getting hurt because Yurika was in love with Junichi. | |

| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_3371361d | comment |
Fast-Forward to Reunion: The last episode of the anime skips over eight years to show Ritsuko, Sentarou, and Kaoru reuniting. The manga is a bit different in that it actually shows Kaoru in college and him visiting his mother regularly, as she lives close by, and meeting up again with Junichi, Kaoru, and Ritsuko. | |

Imaginary Love Triangle | |
| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_3e8a368e | comment |
Imaginary Love Triangle: By the end of the first volume, Kaoru, who has feelings for Ritsuko, questions the nature of Sentarou's and Ritsuko's childhood friendship and suspects that there might be something between them or that one might like the other. He eventually comes to the conclusion that he just was over-thinking things until it's made apparent that Ritsuko does have feelings for Sentarou. Ritsuko comes to the conclusion that Kaoru's fall out with Sentarou was because Kaoru has feelings for Yurika too (as it is mistakenly believed that Kaoru was the one who invited Yurika to their group outing and Kaoru's fight with Sentarou concerned Yurika's handkerchief). In reality, Kaoru was provoked by Sentarou's happiness over receiving Yurika's handkerchief because Sentarou is blissfully unaware that his crush on Yurika is secretly causing Ritsuko (who has a crush on Sentarou) pain. | |

Race for Your Love | |
| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_66805a18 | comment |
Race for Your Love: Happens a few times, though on trains instead of airplanes. With Jun and Yurika, he ends up taking her with him. Later, in one of the "bonus tracks", he ends up returning the favor when she decides to move out. Also happens with Kaoru and Ritsuko, when he is going to Tokyo. | |

| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_6bd689ca | comment |
Meaningful Echo: Kaoru is the one that tells Sentarou that since he loves children so much, he will be "surrounded by children" (as in having a large family). He remembers this at the end when he is surrounded by the children of the church where he is a priest in training. | |

Meaningful Name: In the anime, Yurika qualifies for this trope because her name phonetically sounds like "Eureka!", and she is the reason Kaoru, Sentaro, and Ritsuko find each other in the end. | |

Rule of Symbolism | |
| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_916c72b3 | comment |
Rule of Symbolism: In the manga when Seiji sees Yurika's painting of Sentarou he interprets it as being symbolic of Apollo, who is crying over his unrequited love for Daphne. In-Universe, it wasn't meant to be symbolic as Yurika had accidentally dropped paint near the eye so that it looked like a tear, although it did happen when Kaoru told her Jun may have been staying over at a girl's house, so it's something akin to a Freudian Slip. It does, however, symbolize Sentarou's unrequited love. | |

By the end of the first volume, Kaoru, who has feelings for Ritsuko, questions the nature of Sentarou's and Ritsuko's childhood friendship and suspects that there might be something between them or that one might like the other. He eventually comes to the conclusion that he just was over-thinking things until it's made apparent that Ritsuko does have feelings for Sentarou. | |

Half-Breed Discrimination | |
| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_c59d9a4b | comment |
Half-Breed Discrimination: A big problem for Sentarou. Being half-White and having naturally wavy brown hair, he suffers regularly from racism. So much indeed that his mother left town and let him in the care of his uncle so as to avoid being completely ostracized. As a consequence, Sentarou cuts his hair short so that his unusual hair colour doesn't show too much and to blend in better. | |

Freudian Excuse: When Kaoru throws a massive fit at the beach, after finding out Sentarou was going to work with Seiji's band. At first it seems unnecessary and immature, and Kaoru admits that, but then we are shown flashbacks of his childhood with other kids saying they want to spend less time together for a while, and end up not being friends with him anymore. He thinks Sentarou is doing the same thing, and Kaoru tries to end the friendship before he gets hurt. | |

Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You | |
| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_d8e0e9f7 | comment |
Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: The anime doesn't explain, but the manga reveals that Kaoru's mother didn't want to leave him. Kaoru's father's family treated his mother horribly because she was poor, while they were rich, while the dad just told her to suck it up. Since Kaoru's father was always away on business, their relationship suffered and she tried to leave with Kaoru. She realized she couldn't take him, since she thought she couldn't offer him a good life, and let the father's family take him in. She also couldn't read or write, so she couldn't even write letters. | |

Last-Name Basis: You can tell Kaoru's really in a rough patch when he reflexively reverts to "Mukae-san" to declare "She Is Not My Girlfriend". | |

Jerkass: A guy that Ritsuko goes to school with who likes her but doesn't realize she's still in love with Kaoru, who calls her while the guy is in her room. The guy picks up the phone and tells him not to call her again. Later, while Ritsuko is hanging out with Sentarou's brother, the guy doesn't take no for an answer and grabs Ritsuko, who almost goes with him because she doesn't want the kid to get hurt. | |

Technician Versus Performer | |
| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_ef3d1b57 | comment |
Technician Versus Performer: Kaoru starts off with classical piano training but Sentarou slates his rendition of "Moanin'" as lacking "swing." Later while performing at a piano bar, he becomes bored and wishes to have someone to jam with. He gets his wish when Junichi shows up. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| Kids on the Slope (Manga) / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Kaoru is jealous of Sentarou for being the object of Ritsuko's affections, as well as for having a loving family. This changes once Kaoru learns about Sentarou's Dark and Troubled Past. | |
