Kiniro Mosaic (Manga) | comment |
Kiniro Mosaic (translates to Golden Mosaic, also called Kin'iro Mosaic or KinMoza!) is a Slice of Life comedy manga drawn and penned by Yui Hara, which was serialized in Manga Time Kirara Max from 2010 to 2020. It received an anime adaptation by Studio Gokumi in the summer of 2013, while a second season, titled Hello!! Kiniro Mosaic, aired during the spring 2015 anime season. The manga is licensed by Yen Press in North America starting in December 2016. In August 2021, a theatrical film titled Kiniro Mosaic: Thank You!! was released, serving as the Grand Finale of the series.Junior high student Shinobu Oomiya decides to do a week-long homestay in England. Her hosts, the Cartelets, have a daughter called Alice the same age, and despite the language barrier, the two become close friends. When the week ended and the two had to part, Alice swore that she'll one day go to Japan and see Shinobu again. Years later, she does just that... by transferring to Shinobu's high school and coming to stay with her, surprising her in the process. High levels of cuteness ensue.Compare to Yui Hara's other 4koma comedy Wakaba Girl, about a sheltered Ojou trying to fit in and make friends. | |

Heroic BSoD: In Episode 11 Alice had that because of a dream which Shinobu dumped her because she was "too Japanese." Both Alice and Aya had that in the last episode, when class arrangement means Alice goes with Youko and Aya goes with Shinobu and Karen. | |

Phenotype Stereotype: Largely averted. Alice is short even by Japanese standards, and Karen is neither the tallest nor the bustiest of the cast. The remaining stereotypes, blonde hair and blue eyes, though, were played straight—the "kiniro" in the title refers, partly, to blonde hair. | |

Bland-Name Product: In the first episode, Burberry's in Heathrow was changed to "Surberry." In Episode 5, it turned out Isami's camera is from CameOn (Canon). In Episode 6, Youko is applying Chant-Aid (Band-Aid) bandages to Aya's sprain on her foot. The English textbook the cast uses is Grown. It is supposed to be Crown, Japan's best-selling English textbook. (The version that the anime uses was unfortunately obsolete, though) | |

Not Even Bothering with the Accent | |
Kiniro Mosaic (Manga) / int_43b154c9 | comment |
Not Even Bothering with the Accent The anime largely avoids attempting British accents despite two main characters and several secondary characters being from there, in addition to a good chunk of screentime being spent there. The characters speak in a more neutral or American accent instead; their best attempt at giving the characters a British accent is having Alice pronounce "little" as "li'ull" a couple times, dropping the "T" sound. | |

The Internet Is for Porn: Downplayed in Episode 4. Aya thinks that Isami doesn't allow Shinobu to use the former's computer (with a lame excuse) was due to the latter's blonde fetish. Aya's Imagine Spot of what Shinobu would do if she finds pictures of blondes online makes Shinobu's response look similar to a horny guy's response to pornography. | |

Letting the Air out of the Band: Happens in Episode 2 when Shinobu talks about dying her hair blonde when she graduates, in Episode 3 when the promise Karen made to Alice when they were younger was merely to return a borrowed pencil, and in Episode 6 when Youko wishes that Aya was her mom after tasting her improved cooking. | |

Big Eater: Genki Girl Yoko is probably one, seeing how she finished up all of her lunch before school. That was on top of her breakfast. She's taller and bustier (Aya'd Know) than most of the cast, but is not fat. Karen also has some shades of this, in fact, it's even stated she can eat a lot of food without gaining weight. | |

It's a Small World, After All: What are the chances that the beach that the girls go to in Episode 10, also is the same one that their teachers Karasuma and Kuzehashi visit, and on the same day at that? However ultimately averted, as neither party runs into each other, and while Shino and her friends eventually go home in the afternoon, Karasuma and Kuzehashi stay overnight and relax in one of the nearby resorts. | |

Alice replies that they're all under the same sky and not even national borders can separate them. The scene cuts to them looking at the classroom assignments and seeing that Shinobu, Aya, and Karen are in one class, and Alice and Youko are in another. | |

One Dialogue, Two Conversations: In Episode 11, Alice, asked Karasuma whether she's going out with her boyfriend on Christmas. Karasuma replied, "For me, Christmas is a day for prayer." Alice responded with awe as she took that to mean Karasuma actually goes to the church on Christmas, unlike most Japanese who took the day for something completely unrelated. Karasuma probably meant she is praying for a boyfriend of her own. | |

Location Theme Naming: All the Japanese characters are named after streets in Kyoto. Shinobu Omiya comes from Ōmiya-dōri, Aya Komichi comes from Aya-no-Kōji-Dōrinote "Michi" is the Alternate Character Reading for "ji". In addition, the "no" in Heian-era proper nouns are usually not written., Youko Inokuma comes from Inokuma-Dōri, Karen Kujou comes from Kujō-Dōri, Sakura Karasuma is named after Karasuma-Dōri, Honoka Matsubara comes from Matsubara-Dōri, and Akari Kuzehashi comes from Kuzehashi-Dōri. Notably, all of the initial characters' names are based on roads that are more than a millennium old, first attested in 794 A.D.. | |

Shout-Out | |
Kiniro Mosaic (Manga) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In season 1 episode 6, Karen shows Shinobu an open Anime Time Kirara magazine with descriptions of Yuyushiki. In season one, episode 8, Karen plays a samurai in a retelling of Snow White. When she uses her sword, she puts it away saying, "Once again, I've cut a worthless object", a clear nod to Goemon Ishikawa of Lupin III fame. In season 1 episode 12, Karen reads a manga whose cover features a boy who suspiciously looks like Kirito from Sword Art Online and a girl who looks suspiciously like Silica from the same series. After reading the manga and clearly being inspired by it, Karen puts on the eyepatch of Rikka Takanashi from Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions!. Just to let you know it's a shout out, Aya even calls it "middle school fantasies". Shino's musical story in season 1 episode 12 refers to both the Disney and the original version of The Little Mermaid. In season 2 episode 4, when Honoka sees Karen "giving energy (really shouting "energy in" at the plants)" she wonders if Karen is from a magic school in London, a clear shout-out to Harry Potter. The end of episode 5 of Hello, with Shino sneaking off in the middle of the night, and warning Alice not to peek at what she's doing (doing late-night costume sewing), is a clear reference to the Japanese fairy tale The Crane Wife/The Grateful Crane. In the opening scene of season 2 episode 9, Alice and Karen are playing a game of tennis. Karen is wearing Ojou Ringlets and a red bow, referencing Reika from the tennis series Aim for the Ace!. Youko immediately lampshades this, stating outright that they're acting out a scene from a manga. This scene serves as foreshadowing as Honoka reveals later in the episode that she is in the tennis club. Karen smashes the reference home. In episode 10 of Hello, after being smacked by Youko, Karen does her variation of the "Even my father never hit me!" quote from Mobile Suit Gundam. | |

Bait-and-Switch Credits: The ending credits (of both series) imply that all five girls' journey to England, but this doesn't actually happen during the series. The girls' do reunite in Britain, in a brief scene at the end of the movie: Thank You!! (2021). | |

Threesome Subtext: As far as Shino is concerned, it would be best if she had both Alice and Karen. She even comments that she could have a blonde on each arm. She also likes to daydream about the two together. | |

Footnote Fever: Yen Press' translation of the first volume of manga has 10 pages of translator's notes. Granted, it's of a larger typeface and not as densely set as their usual footnote arrangement, but one can compare it with the lower end of GA: Geijutsuka Art Design Class—three pages of Wall of Text. | |

Translation Convention | |
Kiniro Mosaic (Manga) / int_e11b003d | comment |
Translation Convention: Averted for most of the series, where it's usually made plain whenever someone speaks in English (in Alice or Karen's case). However, come the final episode of Hello!, things suddenly becomes muddled, as there are segments where both Alice and Karen are speaking in English, followed by the two speaking in obvious Japanese... except in the latter segments, we're also shown Alice's mum speaking (and understanding!) Japanese. Complicating matters is how later on, we're shown her speaking in English, and she actually comments how Alice and Karen now use Japanese whenever they talk to each other. | |

Youko says she at least has Alice, prompting Aya to run away while saying it's not fair. Youko then wonders if Aya wanted to be with Alice that badly. After Youko takes a bite out of Aya's popsicle to make them even, Aya gets really flustered. Youko then wonders if Aya really wanted to eat that piece. | |

Shown Their Work: The depictions of England in the first episode are basically accurate; and the Carteret house was basically drawn out of a real English Bed & Breakfast in a small townnote The owner of said Bed & Breakfast inn also happens to travel to Japan to teach British culture and etiquette to the Japanese. Also, as mentioned above, they at least tried their best to defy Gratuitous English, despite the Japanese are clearly not the best English speakers in the world. | |
