Stable Time Loop | |
| Mao (Manga) / int_37690091 | comment |
Stable Time Loop: It's eventually revealed that the reason why Nanoka is cursed by the Seven-Tailed Cat Demon like Mao is due to a time loop. When she was a child, on the day of the accident that killed her parents, Nanoka wandered into the portal that transferred her to the Taisho era, the same of the Great Kant� Earthquake. There, she was attacked by the Seven Tailed Cat Demon and got covered in its blood, becoming the same type of being as Mao. | |

Narnia Time | |
| Mao (Manga) / int_47e61b99 | comment |
Narnia Time: Nanoka notices that the time flow between the modern day (Reiwa era) and the Taisho era varies with each trip she takes. Sometimes less than a day in the Taisho era results in months passing in the modern day, other times a few days in the Taisho era has only an hour pass in the modern day. It's later revealed that past Nanoka had traveled to the Taisho era before at a time current Nanoka is currently in. | |

Locked into Strangeness: Mao originally had black hair, but being cursed by the seven-tailed cat demon caused part of his hair to become white and he gained a mark that runs from the bottom of his left eye. His seniors that he's met have a similar mark, but on their right side. | |

Magic A Is Magic A | |
| Mao (Manga) / int_6c3d1777 | comment |
Magic A Is Magic A: It's established eventually that onmyoji actually came to practice two kinds of magic by the Heian era; onmyo, elemental magic based on the Wuxing, and jugon, magic that centered on the casting and dispelling of curses that had officially been forbidden as Black Magic, but which was secretly practiced due to how much money it could earn from wealthy patrons. | |

Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors: Onmyodo runs on this principle, wood beats earth, earth beats water, water beats fire, fire beats metal and metal beats wood. The Seven-tailed Cat Demon who is a shikigami created outside the five elements of onmyodo is not vulnerable to any of them | |

Recycled Premise | |
| Mao (Manga) / int_a6fa41b | comment |
Recycled Premise: The series is basically a retread of the author's earlier work, Inuyasha. We have a girl lead who's an Ordinary High-School Student, until she discovers she can travel back in time to a more fantastical version of Japan, and ultimately she learns she's not so ordinary after all. In the past, she meets an overtly magical boy and the two become drawn together to battle against evil spirits. The boy is far older than the girl, due to his magical nature, wields a magical sword, and has a personality that can be described as gruff at best, but is secretly tender-hearted and wounded by memories of a lost past lover. The boy's magical nature can be seen in his white hair and a semi-subtle animalistic trait, as well as the fact he can transform into a more powerful, but mindlessly berserk, alter-ego. The finer details may differ but there is a lot about Mao that was clearly recycled from Inuyasha's core premise and two leads. | |

Training from Hell | |
| Mao (Manga) / int_d66cd0e6 | comment |
Training from Hell: Mao's onmyoji training was incredibly harsh, and he openly admits that many prospective students either dropped out or died as a result of the training. For example, in Shiranui's first flashback, we learn that he barely survived one "lesson", which was to wander deep into a maze-like cave system with no light, food or water, then find his way out — he was lost in there for days and only survived by lucking into being able to follow a more successful entrant. And for this, his teacher despised Shiranui, constantly beating him and berating him as a failure who should quit his training. Not to mention that Mao's final training involved he and the four other best students being ordered to fatally curse each other until only one of them survived. | |

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": The Seven-Tailed Cat Demon is referred to as "Byoki". It turns out that this is actually its creature type, as the name literally means "Cat Ogre". It's also the Japanese translation of the Chinese Maogui, which were cat demons used as familiars by Chinese practitioners of Jugon. | |
