No Bra is a teenage romance manga written and illustrated by Kenjiro Kawatsu that was serialized in Monthly Shōnen Champion from 2002 to 2004.It tells the story of Masato Katoka, a somewhat dimwitted high school student, whose childhood friend Yuki Nomura moves in with him one day. Because of Yuki's cute face, girlish clothing, and apparently feminine features, Masato is extremely happy with his new life — until Yuki's mother calls Masato, and tells him that Yuki previously lived as a boy. The story revolves around Masato's relationship with Yuki and his slowly disintegrating reluctance to develop romantic feelings for him. Complicating things further is the growing attraction between Masato and his female classmate Kaoru Oozora, along with interference from his friend Hideki, the conniving freeloader (and teacher) Mizutani, and Yuki's mischievous cousin Mizuki.Not to be confused with Vapor Wear. Contrast Prunus Girl and The Secret Devil-chan, which explore similar themes. | |

Childhood Friend Romance | |
| No Bra (Manga) / int_1c8e096e | comment |
Childhood Friend Romance: Yuki has been in love with Maa-kun since they were five. As the manga goes on, Yuki is shown to be infatuated with Masato, when the real Maa-kun is Kaoru. When Yuki learns the truth, however, Yuki doesn't develop or have any feelings for her. | |

Childhood Friends | |
| No Bra (Manga) / int_1fe9e22 | comment |
Childhood Friends: Yuki and Maa-kun. For the first half of the manga, Masato believes he is "Maa-kun," but upon investigating with Mizuki, it turns out Kaoru is "Maa-kun", as her family name was Masato before her parents' re-marriage. | |

Mistaken Identity | |
| No Bra (Manga) / int_231e8193 | comment |
Mistaken Identity: Masato and "Maa-kun" are not the same person. The real Maa-kun is Masato Kaoru, a.k.a Oozura Kaoru, who is not only a girl in reality, but Masato's girlfriend. How Masato lands Oozura as a girlfriend. Oozura apparently fell for him because "he" saved her from a molester on a train. Well, she thinks it was him because of the Hawaiian shirt her savior wore and Masato is constantly wearing Hawaiian shirts. Masato, however, is pretty sure he never did anything that heroic and thinks that the guy Oozura saw was probably a plainclothes police officer. | |

Hot for Student: Well, not quite played straight in that Mizutani has started throwing herself at Masato not because she has feelings for him or actually wants him, but because she doesn't want to get kicked out of the apartment (see Pretty Freeloaders), and knows Masato has trouble saying no to a girl if she's getting physical with him. | |

Blatant Lies: Masato tries to cover up his cohabitation with Mizutani from Yuki's cousin with a couple of these. She doesn't really believe him, but the only reason she cares at all is because it makes him squirm. | |

Kavorka Man | |
| No Bra (Manga) / int_4f62bde6 | comment |
Kavorka Man: Masato is quite plain but has relationships (of a sort) with Yuki, Oozura, Mizutani, and Mizuki. Yuki is infatuated with him because she thinks Masato is "Maa-kun", Oozura genuinely likes him, Mizutani is manipulating him into letting her live with them, and Mizuki just likes to see him squirm at her forwardness. | |

The Big Guy | |
| No Bra (Manga) / int_500ecfb7 | comment |
The Big Guy: Hideki, Masato's best friend, who towers over the rest of the cast, is built like a sumo wrestler, and has a major crush on Yuki, but is also a firm supporter of Yuki's love for Masato. Hideki's also pretty unique in the Big Guy department for not just clearly being fat, and not just clearly having consequences of such (sweating, overeating, etc.), but the fact that everyone still treats him like a normal person. | |
