Kimagure Orange Roadnote Quirky Orange Road is a manga created by Izumi Matsumoto and serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 1984 to 1987. The anime had a pilot episode to promote the manga in 1985, which was followed by a 48-episode TV anime series which aired from 1987 to 1988, a TV movie from 1988 (Kimagure Orange Road: I want to return to that day), and 8 OAV's (set in the TV series continuity) released in between 1989 and 1991. There were also a theatrical movie set several years post-series (Shin Kimagure Orange Road: Summer's Beginning) and a Drama CD series from 1997.The Love Triangle between the three main characters remains a classic to this day. At the center of it is Kyōsuke Kasuga, the apparently Ordinary High-School Student, whose family has just moved to another town due to the necessity of keeping their Psychic Powers a secret.His first love interest is the beautiful Madoka Ayukawa, who seems to be a friendly and kind girl the first time their paths cross. When he meets her again at school, however, she acts icy and distant towards him, and school rumor insists that she is a delinquent. Which facet of Madoka is the real one?The third corner of the love triangle comes in the form of Hikaru Hiyama. She's a bubbly, innocent tomboy who immediately falls for Kyōsuke after seeing him make an incredible hoop shot (not knowing that he used supernatural powers) and is fond of glomping him and calling him "Darling!"Predictably, Kyōsuke has no romantic feelings towards Hikaru: he does care for "Hikaru-chan" (what 15 year old guy can really resist a cute girl practically throwing herself at him?), but has eyes only for Madoka, who acts sweet (but cold when he disappoints her because of his indecisiveness) towards him. Even more predictably, Kyōsuke cannot declare his love for Madoka or reject Hikaru and thus end the love triangle. The reason? Hikaru absolutely adores "Madoka-san" and has been her Only Friend from many years ago (as in, along with a boy named Yūsaku Hino, she's the only person who isn't afraid of her), and Madoka had already promised to help her win Kyōsuke. In addition, Madoka has shown she really dislikes it if Kyōsuke does anything to hurt or upset Hikaru. Of course, the setup gets even more tangled when Madoka herself begins developing feelings for Kyōsuke as well...What elevates Kimagure Orange Road from a run-of-the-mill romantic comedy is the depth and genuineness of its emotions and events. Despite the subplot of Kyōsuke keeping his supernatural powers a secret, the series is really a coming-of-age story of typical teenagers finding their way in the confusing realm of love that feels more realistic and nostalgic than most other romantic comedies.After AnimEigo lost the license in 2004, it was almost forgotten in Western anime circles, but Discotek Media announced on August 12, 2018 that it was going to release a remastered Blu-Ray of the series which was released on March 26, 2019, with the OVAs and first movie released on July 29, 2019. The TV Series, OVAs, and first movie can be watched on Crunchyroll. | |

Diet Episode: In Chapter 95, Hikaru notices that she's gained weight and goes on a diet, fearing she's getting fat. Kyosuke notices her changed eating habits, he also notes that she has become heavier and her breasts are bigger now, from which he concludes that she's pregnant. It turns out it's just a growth spurt. | |

Single Woman Seeks Good Man: Both Madoka and Hikaru think like this regarding Kyousuke. Madoka loves him because he was the first guy in their school (aside of Yusaku) who approached her without fear, whereas Hikaru at first likes Kyousuke for making a super 3-pointer, but soon comes to love him for being a Nice Guy. | |

The Ghost: Madoka's older sister, who apparently lives with her, is never seen at all. She only ever appears in I Want To Return To That Day, in a Remember the New Guy? scene. (Though she is an offscreen voice in Message In Rouge, the very last OVA, which is the last thing the original Anime team made.) | |

Model Scam: Subverted. Hikaru meets a man that claims to be a photographer and asks her if she would like to be a model. When Hikaru gleefully tells her best friends Kyosuke and Madoka about it, Madoka warns her about perverts that claim to be photographers. Hikaru and Madoka agree to go together to the meeting place just in case. There they find out that the man IS a professional photographer with a legitimate offer... And Kyosuke's father. | |

Good Is Not Soft: Madoka is likely the most altruistic character in the series, and is normally kind and polite, but it's a very bad idea to piss her off. And, of course, don't hurt her loved ones or weak people when she's there! | |

Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_297ab1b9 | comment |
Parental Abandonment: Madoka loves her parents and they love her back, but they work abroad (Dad is an orchestra conductor, Mom is a classic violinist) and so they're almost never seen around and Madoka has been basically raised by her older sister (and once said sister gets married, she and her hubby go to the USA and Madoka lives alone). Hikaru's parents are there, but they're never seen and only heard in the background or mentioned. | |

Tomboy and Girly Girl: Kyōsuke's younger sisters Kurumi (tomboy) and Manami (girly girl). Kurumi is boisterous, irresponsible, and a Lethal Chef, Manami is reserved, domestic, motherly, and the Team Chef. Though in this case, it's Manami the one with a Tomboyish Ponytail. Madoka and Hikaru began as this as little girls, years before meeting Kyōsuke. In the current story, by the time he came into their lives they had switched to Light Feminine and Dark Feminine, although both with some tomboy tendencies. | |

Time Stands Still: In an occasion Kyosuke's grandfather hands him a pocket watch that allows him to actually stop time for 60 seconds. Cue in Kyousuke accidentally winding the watch backwards and freezing himself instead of the world around him, and making everyone else think that he's dead (no pulse). Fortunately Hikaru give him a Kiss of Life and Kyosuke is revived. | |

Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_37690091 | comment |
Stable Time Loop: Involved in the time travel plot in the last two episodes of the TV series, as Madoka remembers meeting Kyosuke five years ago even before he traveled back to the past. This instance of time travel also invokes: Meanwhile, in the Future…, and... Never the Selves Shall Meet: With Madoka. Because according to Grandpa, the Temporal Paradox would involve both selves being erased from existence, if they ever touched each other. It was this close to happen when Madoka met herself as a kid, but thankfully her older sister called out to little Madoka and she had to come back home. | |

Amazon Chaser | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_39b7a7cd | comment |
Amazon Chaser: Played with, maybe deconstructed in regards to Madoka. She gets this reaction from older guys, but boys her age often say "No Guy Wants an Amazon" and steer away from "Madoka the Pick", no matter how hot she is. (In fact, even Hatta and Komatsu feared her at the beginning, and warned Kyōsuke about her bad fame in the second episode.) Kyōsuke is pretty much the first guy aside of Yūsaku who approaches her without fear (or despite his fear) in school. | |

Madoka and Hikaru began as this as little girls, years before meeting Kyōsuke. In the current story, by the time he came into their lives they had switched to Light Feminine and Dark Feminine, although both with some tomboy tendencies. | |

Butt-Monkey: Kyosuke. There is no episode where something hilariously bad doesn't happen to this kid. Hikaru's childhood friend/whipping boy Yūsaku. Jingoro, the Kasuga's cat in the anime. Hatta and Komatsu, obviously. They're essentially a Plucky Comic Relief, after all. | |

Conveniently Seated: routinely Defied. Kasuga sits in the middle of class. Ayukawa has a window seat, but not the 'protagonist seat'. Two grades down, the twins sit in the middle of the aisle near the classroom door. | |

Power Perversion Potential | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_4d070ee3 | comment |
Power Perversion Potential: There are many examples: Kurumi once transformed Kyousuke into a Panty Thief (by accident: she had hypnotized him into obeying any and all orders and forgot to break it, and Hatta and Komatsu jokingly ordered him to bring them female underwear. Then they started doing it seriously); while under the effects of the above mentioned hypnosis, Kyousuke used his teleportation abilities to steal panties and bras while they were being worn. Kazuya has exchanged body with Kyousuke to try and perv on Madoka and Hikaru with Kyousuke sometimes going with it willingly because, in the body of a five years old, he'd be able to do just that without fear of punishment. In early appaerence Kazuya use his Telekinesis power to lift Madoka's skirt. Kyousuke's cousin Akane can make people see as someone else. More than once she had to stop herself from using Kyousuke's face to get her way with Madoka. | |

The Chikan: In a manga chapter, Kyosuke is distressed because Madoka is mad with him, and his cousin Kazuya advises him to act perverted towards Madoka to get her to forgive him. Too dumb to acknowledge that this is an obvious plot to get back at him, Kyosuke falls for it and he decides to fondle Madoka in the subway... but before he makes the attempt, another woman gets fondled near them and angrily confronts her harasser. Madoka states how much she detests that kind of man, and Kyosuke wisely loses his nerve and realizes that apologizing to Madoka is the right action to earn her forgiveness. | |

Improbable Weapon User: Madoka keeps guitar picks strapped to her thigh which she can throw with considerable force. In later episodes, the main characters have to deal with a girl gang who wield such weapons as skateboards and yo-yos. Probably a spoof of Sukeban Deka ("Delinquent Girl Detective"), a popular shoujo manga about a reformed delinquent girl who used a yo-yo as a weapon to fight crime. There was a popular live-action show based on it that was airing at the time. | |

Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_6f07b093 | comment |
Cannot Spit It Out: Kyōsuke wouldn't have had to keep up the charade with Hikaru for as long as he did if he had just told her about his true feelings upfront. Then again, he is the Poster Boy for Indecisiveness. (It doesn't help his situation that Madoka, due to her feelings of loyalty for Hikaru, keeps pushing Kyōsuke and Hikaru together despite having feelings for Kyōsuke herself.) In the manga, he is truly indecisive about who he likes more, though on most occasions he leans towards Madoka. In the anime, his only indecisiveness is not being able to tell Hikaru his true feelings. | |

Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_707bb8ce | comment |
Pair the Spares: Averted. After Hikaru is dumped by Kyosuke, it would seem reasonable that she and Yusaku would hook up. However, this doesn't happen as Shin-KOR follows the manga timeline and has Hikaru leave for America shortly thereafter and stays there for a long time. This matching is notable for not even being used much in Fan fiction. Akane, the fourth corner of the love triangle (!) would seem to have a logical matchup with the unnamed Lesbian Schoolgirl from the manga story "The Bus Stop of Love." However, whenever she shows up in fan works, things never work out. | |

Tsundere: Madoka is commonly cited as one of the original codifiers of the Tsundere archetype (joining the club formed by Sayaka Yumi, Oscar François de Jarjayes, Lum, and Akane Tendō.) Her complexity as a Tsundere is often favorably compared to the nature of many modern Tsundere. "Kimagure" means, "whimsical", and clearly refers to her. | |

Psychic Powers | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_874176be | comment |
Psychic Powers: The Kasuga clan (Kyousuke's mother's family; his dad married into the family) have shown a rather wide array of skills: Telekinesis and Psychic Teleportation can be done by all family members. Kyousuke also has shown an ability for precognition and traveling through time (plus self hypnosis). Kyouske's Telekinesis is very powerful. He was able to lift a steamroller (10-20 tons!) at least twenty feet in the air and move it a full city block, while suffering from a severe head cold or the flu. His little sister Manami has demonstrated the ability to erase videotapes with her mind. His other little sister Kurumi is good at performing hypnosis (and potential brainwashing), though she mostly uses her powers to hypnotize Kyousuke. Cousin Akane can appear to be someone else to others, while other cousin Kazuya has all of the powers Kyousuke has, but much stronger — with a side dish of mind reading and Body Surf (the latter activated by giving an headbutt). | |

The trope is deconstructed, however. Madoka is more selfless, while Hikaru is more spoiled. Sayuri Hirose tries to become a Third-Option Love Interest and get Kyōsuke away from them. She fails. | |

Secret-Keeper: The Kasuga family must keep their psychic powers a secret, which tends to be a problem for Kyosuke. Kyosuke tries especially hard to keep the secret this time, because they have to move to a new city and start over every time their cover's blown. In the anime the Master of Abcb knows that Kyosuke and Madoka have feelings for each other. In the manga, so does Manami. | |

Homage: Both plots and individual scenes are borrowed from a variety of contemporary films and anime, from a dream in episode 2 that reflects An Officer and a Gentleman to the New Year's Day special where the entire cast is recast in a parody episode of Toku, fighting a giant-sized Jingoro, entitled "T.A.P.

Bait-and-Switch Credits | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_c76b215e | comment |
Bait-and-Switch Credits: The Italian opening. The lyrics of the theme song were clearly written by someone who don't know anything about the story. The song is mostly about Kyosuke (called by his dub name "Johnny") and his powers, not a single word about the love triangle which is the main plot of the anime. It uses some random adjectives to describe Kyosuke, like "sincere" (when for most of the series he's anything but) or even "affascinante" (meaning "charming, seductive"). It also states that mind-reading is one of his powers, which is of course not true. The French opening is not as inaccurate but still qualifies. The lyrics focus too much on Kyosuke's family, especially Kurumi and Manami, while they barely mention Madoka and Hikaru, who are much more important characters. | |

Last-Name Basis | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_e28f88b8 | comment |
Last-Name Basis: Kyosuke never addresses Madoka by her first name, she's always 'Ayukawa.' Although fairly early on he drops any honorifics. | |

Dub Name Change | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: When the series was translated to Italian as 'È quasi magia Johnny' ("It's almost magic, Johnny") all characters got name changes in an effort to slightly alter the show's setting from Japan to... basically nowhere (Italian dubs often change Japanese names to a random mix of Italian, English, and Japanese names). So Kyosuke, Madoka and Hikaru became Johnny, Sabrina and Tinetta. Kyosuke's sisters Manami and Kurumi were known as Manuela and Simona. When the show was brought to Spain straight from the Italian version, the names Tinetta and Simona were changed to the more Spanish-sounding Rosa and Tamara. In the Swedish dub, the name of the show was changed to Superfamiljen (The Super Family), Kyosuke became Kurre Karlsson, Madoka became Madeleine Aurell and so forth. | |

The Hero: Kyōsuke has Psychic Powers, but it's actually Madoka who saves weaker people from delinquents. | |

The Oner | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_e7e558 | comment |
The Oner: The "Kagami no Naka no Actress" opening sequence is a tour-de-force of cel animation with no cuts and no painted backgrounds — everything onscreen is drawn on cels because the camera keeps moving around. It even forms an endless loop because the sequence begins and ends with Jingoro running up the stairs. | |

Panty Thief | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_e8f91cb9 | comment |
Kurumi once transformed Kyousuke into a Panty Thief (by accident: she had hypnotized him into obeying any and all orders and forgot to break it, and Hatta and Komatsu jokingly ordered him to bring them female underwear. Then they started doing it seriously); while under the effects of the above mentioned hypnosis, Kyousuke used his teleportation abilities to steal panties and bras while they were being worn. | |

Clingy Jealous Girl | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_eb5b71fe | comment |
Clingy Jealous Girl: Hikaru. First in an innocent and childlike way, but more seriously and borderline Yandere-like in the first movie. She gets better, as seen above. | |

Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_edebe3c8 | comment |
Plot-Based Voice Cancellation: Whenever Kyosuke has a Prophetic Dream, the Prophetic Dream tells him always only half of the truth, e.g. the words he hears and the scenes he sees are always out of context. | |

Running Gag | |
Kimagure Orange Road (Manga) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Ushiko and Umao are a newlywed couple that serve as one of the primary running gags in the TV series. Their appearance in an episode generally consists of them saying the same romantic lines to one another, followed by a chaotic event involving Kyosuke or other primary characters, sometimes in the most ludicrous places. | |
