Annoying Younger Sibling: Shintaro to Mariko. He's far less troublesome than her, in fact. |

Single Woman Seeks Good Man: Mariko may have a reputation of a easy lay, before hanging out with the cast but she is really one of these. |

Wrong Genre Savvy |
| Neighborhood Story (Manga) / int_20a14df0 |
comment |
Wrong Genre Savvy: Poor Yuusuke was wrong, he never got to star in his own manga. To be fair, he was pretty close to being one in this very series, while Jirô, Shintaro and Noriji had similar delusions. Noriji, though, gets a cameo in the continuation, where he's briefly presented as "some random ojii-san". |
