| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) | comment |
Shiramine Ayaka is perfect. Beautiful, brilliant, kind and a hard worker: she is the model student of Seiran Academy, and her sole ambition when she arrives in the high-school section is to remain her perfect self. But to her shock, another girl named Kurosawa Yurine steals the top seat from her effortlessly—literally effortlessly.At first Ayaka is only mildly annoyed, but after she shows her trademark kindness to the aloof Yurine, the latter falls head-over-heels for her and starts clinging to her at every occasion. After which Ayaka becomes obsessed with taking back her title of top student, while desperately trying not to fall for her new rival, who shows her no end of affection. Because Yurine sees Ayaka as the girl who can defeat her and make her feel "normal".Well, this is not that story.…Okay, it is, but while the above summary is the starting point, it quickly becomes only a part of an ensemble story, where the character focuses and points of view regularly change. Most chapters are actually focused on other girls of Seiran Academy, with Ayaka and/or Yurine being in supporting roles.Starting from volume 2, the structure becomes "one volume = one new couple", with Ayaka and Yurine's story arc serving as a sort of vague connecting thread between those self-contained arcs. Thus, while there is a sense of continuity and the protagonists' relationship gradually evolves, it is also possible to read each volume more or less independently. The tone switches between humoristic and melancholic but remains light and sweet. No gayngst or earth-shattering drama here.Ano Ko ni Kiss to Shirayuri wo ("A Kiss and a White Lily for Her"), or AnoKiss for short, is a girls' romance series by Canno, an artist from the doujin circle "Hyper Kettle Yesterday" (with the artists Kawauchi and Nega). It was launched in November 2013 in the Monthly Comic Alive, the same magazine that published Whispered Words − making it one of the very few yuri series published in a mainstream magazine at the time.note Interestingly enough, in a crossed interview with Canno, Nakatani Nio noted that the series' art style and writing felt more like shonen than shojo. It is published in English by Yen Press since 2017, as "Kiss And White Lily For My Dearest Girl." You could say that the series is a sort of crash course through the various types of yuri couples while putting a little unique spin on them at the same time. The series concluded in 2019 with a total of 10 volumes.In 2015, some of Canno's doujin works from 2012 and 2013 were released in a volume titled Cider to Nakimushi, full with an updated art, published by Yuri Hime.Compare Comprehensive Tovarisch by Arata Iri, which has a similar premise, but is much more hectic.The character focuses in each volume are as such: Ayaka & Yurine + Mizuki & Moe Chiharu & Maya + Chiharu & Izumi Ayaka & Yurine + Yukina & Towako Mizuki & Moe + Kaoru Ayaka & Yurine + Sawa & Itsuki Chiharu & Izumi + Amane, Ryou & Nina Ayaka & Yurine + Haine & Aika Ayaka & Yurine + Hikari & Nagisa Ayaka & Yurine + Asuka & Mikaze Ayaka & Yurine | |

Visual Pun: Possibly in chapter 3. When Ayaka tells her that her almost kissing Yurine was totally an accident, Mizuki's only reaction is to silently close the closet's door and leave. | |

Implausible Hair Color: Most characters have dark or brown hair, but Yurine and Izumi are blonde and Towako is platinum, which isn't awfully common in Japan to say the least. | |

| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_2b68b7fa | comment |
Sickeningly Sweethearts: Whether it's true or not, this is apparently how Ayaka views Mizuki's private interactions with her girlfriend. When asked to imitate Moe to cheer Mizuki up in chapter 16, Ayaka puts a lot of… sugar in her performance. | |

Tomboy and Girly Girl | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_2d364c81 | comment |
Tomboy and Girly Girl: Played with in the case of Mizuki and Moe. Mizuki cut her hair to give this effect when she is seen with Moe, but the latter is actually much more assertive and shameless, while Mizuki is quite shy and easily embarrassed. Played with in a different way with Amane, Nina and Ryou; the first two are a classic take on the trope, but then Ryou comes as a sort of balancing element between the two. | |

Itsuki towers over her senpai Sawa, is gorgeous, graceful, and seemingly more mature and determined… but she turns out to be far more childish and dreamy, as well as hopelessly in love, while Sawa is more down-to-earth and thinks matters through more than her apparent silliness might suggest. | |

Wall of Blather: What does Yurine do when she is asked to read an English text but forgot her textbook? Well, she just recites the entire text that she has memorized in one casual reading when she was bored, putting this trope in effect. A variant is also sometimes used out of bubbles when one character complains longly to herself but the other doesn't care. | |

Absurdly Powerful Student Council: Aside from the immensely powerful student council there are multiple other councils and committees all managed by the students, to the point we barely see any teachers in the story. Seiran seems less like a school and more like a small, self-governed country. | |

Downplayed Trope: A general writing trait − when this series uses a trope, it tends to use it moderately. Not always, but often. It's part of what gives it such a quiet atmosphere at times. | |

Not What It Looks Like: In chapter 2, Mizuki finds Ayaka visibly about to kiss Yurine, leaving her to find a lame excuse about how this was all an accident. The problem is that it was what it looked like (she wanted to "get back" at Yurine when the latter was getting total control over her). | |

Big Damn Kiss: Two notable instances. In chapter 20, Mizuki asks Moe to live together - i.e. the closest possible thing to a marriage proposal - which is followed by three full pages of the two kissing each other under romantic fireworks. Quite intense for a series where actual kisses are few and far between. In chapter 43, after Ayaka finally beats Yurine and becomes no. 1, she can no longer hold back her feelings and decides to actively kiss Yurine for the first time. There are two full pages of them almost kissing, backing off for a second, then Yurine grabbing and moving Ayaka's hand as if to take control, before their share one big, deep kiss. When Ayaka tries to go for another round… Yurine stops her as the bell rings, leaving Ayaka completely embarrassed. | |

Valentine's Day Episode: Chapter 15.5 follows Valentine's day of all the main couples. It notably has Ayaka trying to bake the best damn chocolate she can, to not lose to Yurine. The latter, having entirely anticipated that, gives her… chocolate bought in a shop, making Ayaka's efforts totally pointless. She can be a bit of a Troll when she wants. | |

Serious Business: The arcs' drama usually centers around things that seem relatively mundane from an outside perspective (a senior leaving the school, a track race performance, a rose garden…), but are extremely important to the girls, as it's an integral part of their bond. | |

Ayaka has a kind and graceful façade hiding an aggressive and occasionally hypocritical personality; Yurine is usually cold and indifferent, but can switch to The Tease and become oddly joyful in the presence of Ayaka, who is annoyed yet can't reject her. Mizuki and Moe play this in a different way, with Mizuki being shy and hesitant while Moe is often a bit blunt and forceful. Both know very well how the other works, though. Ai and Chiharu are a non-romantic example. The former is hyperactive, cheerful and girly, the latter is strait-laced, grumpy and not overly emotional. Yet they get along, somehow. | |

Suicide Watch | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_745049a6 | comment |
Suicide Watch: Kurosawa runs into Shiramine who is obviously in considerable distress after a difficult talk with her overly demanding parents. When Shiramine then declares that she is gonna skip school for the first time in her life to go "to the sea", Kurosawa starts quietly following her at a short distance, despite Shiramine's insistence that she not be followed. It turns out that Shiramine didn't really have any suicidal thoughts — she just was so hurt by her mother's words that she needed to get away for a night, and afterwards, she thanks Kurosawa for not leaving her alone. | |

Almost Kiss | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_7eb49b31 | comment |
Almost Kiss: When Mizuki puts a strand of Moe's hair to her lips in chapter 4, two bystanding girls mistake that for a kiss. It's not, though the symbolism is probably there. | |

Red Oni, Blue Oni | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_8411ab92 | comment |
Red Oni, Blue Oni: Pretty much all the pairings so far have some variation of this dichotomy, one side being more passionate, irritable, lively or extravert (Ayaka, Moe, Izumi, Yukina, Sawa) while the other is colder, shier, more introvert or more composed (Yurine, Mizuki, Chiharu, Towako, Itsuki). And deliberately or not, the "blue oni" girl is always the taller one. Despite that though, no two couples quite resemble each other in their interactions. | |

Show, Don't Tell | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_870bbf64 | comment |
Show, Don't Tell: Sort of. The series is rather minimalistic in its narration, and interestingly the girls rarely directly say that they love each other (not in conventional ways, at least), they just demonstrate it through acts and gestures. Chapter 41 − 9 volumes in! − is the first chapter to have a "conventional" confession and ironically, also the first one that features a couple breaking up. | |

Pseudo-Romantic Friendship | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_a058376e | comment |
Pseudo-Romantic Friendship: While some of the girls' feelings are explicitly romantic, others rather skirt the line between outright love and this. The romantic aspect remains relatively subdued, all in all: the stories are more focused on what bonds the characters together and what they don't want to lose, than the romantic side of the relationships. It somewhat evolves as the story goes on though − the first actual kiss only occurs at the end of volume 3 but after that, the romances get increasingly explicit and the kisses get increasingly frequent. | |

Love Triangle | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_b7e0c5ff | comment |
Love Triangle: The series has three, though only the last one is played for drama. Chiharu has feelings for her Senpai Maya and Izumi has feelings for her Senpai Chiharu, but after Maya graduates and Izumi enters high school, Chiharu hangs out more often with the latter. In the volume 2 omake, Chiharu has started going out with Izumi, which is elaborated more in the second Drama CD, and then in chapter 26 and 27, where Chiharu definitively gets over her crush for Maya. Yurine and her sister are both in love with Ayaka (but the latter only appears in a couple of omake), and Ayaka clearly has unadmitted feelings for Yurine... which becomes a Love Square when Kaoru is introduced and shown to have a crush on Yurine. Chapter 28 introduces one between Amane, who's into Polyamory, Ryou, a shy girl who falls for her, and Nina, Amane's girlfriend who's… not too enthusiastic about those two suddenly getting along. | |

Subverted Trope | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_c145f69b | comment |
Subverted Trope: While the series seems to feature every yuri trope imaginable, it also likes to turn them on their head a wee bit. The Onee-sama type (Ayaka) turns out to be quite aggressive, egocentric and hypocritical, while the lonely newcomer girl who falls in Love at First Sight with her (Yurine) turns out to be a genius and a very forward tease. The Tomboy and Girly Girl duo (Mizuki and Moe) is the opposite of what it looks, with the "tomboy" being shy and insecure while the longer-haired cute girl clearly wears the pants and has rather dubious hobbies. Also, one likes romantic movies, the other would like "something with more explosions". Senpai/Kohai relationships? Chiharu has to deal with her slightly incompetent senpai Maya (whom she likes) and her rather rude kouhai Izumi (who likes her). Itsuki towers over her senpai Sawa, is gorgeous, graceful, and seemingly more mature and determined… but she turns out to be far more childish and dreamy, as well as hopelessly in love, while Sawa is more down-to-earth and thinks matters through more than her apparent silliness might suggest. | |

Rotating Protagonist | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_d959d421 | comment |
Rotating Protagonist: While Ayaka and Yurine are the only pairing whose arc spreads over several volumes, the brief focuses on them coming between longer arcs where they stay in the background. In volumes 1, 3, 5, and 7 they take half of the spotlight, but in volumes 2, 4 and 6 they barely appear. Each volume focuses on the couple featured on the cover, who might be new characters or already known but not yet developed ones. Another particularity is that the focus tends to "hop" from one group of characters to another after they interact − for example, Ayaka being interviewed by Sawa and Itsuki in volume 5 or Izumi meeting Amane in volume 6. This allows for smooth transitions between the arcs despite the constant shifts. | |

Torayama (the "tiger") is abrasive, passionate and slightly irritable, while Tatsumi (the "dragon") has a cool and nonchalant demeanor. They're equally gifted and hate each other with a passion (yet like each other much more than they want to admit). | |

In chapter 43, after Ayaka finally beats Yurine and becomes no. 1, she can no longer hold back her feelings and decides to actively kiss Yurine for the first time. There are two full pages of them almost kissing, backing off for a second, then Yurine grabbing and moving Ayaka's hand as if to take control, before their share one big, deep kiss. When Ayaka tries to go for another round… Yurine stops her as the bell rings, leaving Ayaka completely embarrassed. | |

Once per Episode: Every single chapter has a character kissing someone or something one way or another. It's sometimes a mouth-to-mouth kiss, of course, but often more subtle (and sometimes very blink-and-you'll-miss-it). Canno joked in an interview that she was running out of body parts to kiss for the characters. | |

Theme Naming | |
| Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl (Manga) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: The two main characters are named Shiramine (Shira meaning "white") and Kurosawa (Kuro meaning "black"), which highlights their contrasting personalities—although ironically, despite their names Ayaka is black-haired while Yurine is blonde. Their names also have the exact same number of syllables, with the first name written in Hiragana. And if you push even further (but it might be coincidental there), Ayaka has a last name ending in [ine] and a first name with two [a]; Yurine has a last name ending with two [a] and a first name ending in [ine]. So you could say their very names highlight their dynamic (see Opposites Attract above). | |
