Nozo × Kimi (Nozomi and Kimio in its initial three-chapter publication) is a Lighter and Softer spinoff manga of Nozoki Ana by Wak� Honna. It was published in Shonen Sunday from 2012 to 2015 (following a brief weekly run of the first three chapters in 2011), running for 63 chapters. The monthly serialization ended at nineteen chapters, upon which it transitioned into a weekly serialization, with the shift marked by the characters graduating their first year and moving into their second year. A three-episode OVA adaptation by ZEXCS released from 2014 to 2015, with the Real Song Theme Tune “Tentekomai� performed by mimimemeMIMInote Known for debuting with “Sentimental Love�, the opening theme of A Town Where You Live’s anime adaptation, which was also used as the theme song for the Ane Log: Moyako Neesan no Tomaranai Monologue OVA series.It centers around the titular duo of Nozomi Komine and Kimio Suga, two classmates who happen to live across from each other in the same apartment complex. When Kimio finds himself hiding in the girls locker room and unable to escape, Nozomi is mercifully quiet about seeing him when she opens her locker. However, in return for her secrecy on the incident, Nozomi wants Kimio to let her indulge in a voyeuristic hobby of “showing each other� themselves i.e. letting her flash him in states of undress at school and when they look through their bedroom windows every morning and night. Thus begins Kimio’s new school life of putting up with Nozomi’s antics as she drags him into her experiments of emotional self-discovery, which often involve meddling in the social lives of their classmates. | |

Ironically, Mahiru herself admits that her Forceful Kiss with Kimio on Valentine’s Day was on some level one of these to prove her resolve for Kimio was stronger than Nozomi’s. | |

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: For as much as he complains about Nozomi’s antics, Kimio cares deeply about her and is always concerned for her wellbeing when he thinks she might be in trouble. | |

Cannot Keep a Secret | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_125f3ee4 | comment |
Cannot Keep a Secret: The main reason Kimio finds Haruka’s peeping more insufferable than Nozomi’s is that Haruka is a blabbermouth with no concern for keeping the arrangement a secret, which leads to her classmates showing up in her room when they open the windows and their neighbors starting to get concerned about a peeper in the apartment. | |

All Men Are Perverts | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_129749df | comment |
All Men Are Perverts: Just about every male student is a Hormone-Addled Teenager, though Kimio is usually too flustered and frustrated by the circumstances he finds himself in to really enjoy most of his Accidental Pervert moments. Still, even he can’t help but let his imagination run wild when Nozomi makes a suggestive offer. | |

Fake First Kiss | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_14098d74 | comment |
Fake First Kiss: Played with and deconstructed, in that the kiss itself changes nothing about the relationship, but outside people who know about it understandably make a bigger deal of it than the subjects, which indirectly brings about a change in the relationship that the kiss itself did not. First, it’s exploited by Nozomi to seal the deal on her and Kimio’s Boyfriend Bluff so Haruka will leave him alone without really changing the status quo between them. It comes back to bite her in a later arc, as she has no idea that her genuine support for Mahiru’s feelings for Kimio retroactively comes off as a mixed message at best and a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing move at worst once Haruka tells Mahiru that Nozomi has already kissed Kimio and never told their friends. This heavily influences Mahiru’s hasty decision to kiss Kimio herself, which ultimately brings about a Green-Eyed Epiphany. | |

Heroic BSoD | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_1439161f | comment |
The other major instance of Kimio worrying when she doesn’t do her usual peepshow is in chapter 55, when she not only forgets to put on any clothing at all, she actually closes her curtains when she comes to, having been thrown into a Heroic BSoD by the sight of his kiss with Mahiru. In turn, Kimio is also subject to this trope, as people such as Haruka Mukai notice that he’s been acting strangely in the absence of his and Nozomi’s daily routine. | |

Tamer and Chaster | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_146e133b | comment |
Tamer and Chaster: While Nozoki Ana was practically Porn with Plot (albeit without illustration of exposed genitals), Nozo × Kimi is comparatively lighter with the ecchi elements (for example, Nozomi often pushes Kimio into Accidental Pervert moments but is never seen masturbating like Emiru did). That said, the nudity and fanservice is largely at the same level, the main difference is that in the former, Everybody Has Lots of Sex was in full effect. | |

| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_176a6683 | comment |
The Social Expert: Despite her seeming lack of social skills and self-awareness, Nozomi is quite adept at reading other people and understanding the hidden feelings that motivate their actions. This, combined with Kimio’s status as The Heart, is what allows Team Nozo×Kimi (as Mahiru calls them) to deal with people’s emotional problems so expertly. | |

Graceful Loser: Although she’s initially competitive and hostile about it, after coming to view Nozomi as a Worthy Opponent, Haruka indicates that if there’s anyone she’d accept Kimio being with, it’s Nozomi. Once Kimio finally admits he loves Nozomi, she bows out and moves on from her fixation on being his fated love. | |

Single Woman Seeks Good Man: Most of the girls who fall for Kimio do so because of the kindness he shows them when he and Nozomi are trying to help them with their problems. There are moments over several chapters where Mahiru in particular falls in love with him as she witnesses his kind heart at work while he helps her and others. | |

Those Two Guys: Tomita and Murakami, the two perverted male classmates whose intrusion in the girls locker room is the reason Kimio got stuck there in the first place. Ry�ji Toba and Mahiru Shīna take up this role when the characters enter their second year. Nozomi and Kimio themselves are considered this from the perspective of the rest of their school. | |

Green-Eyed Monster | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_1d2400e9 | comment |
Green-Eyed Monster: Miyako Iwashimizu’s complete lack of athletic ability gives her an Inferiority Superiority Complex over her schoolmates, and she takes it out on them by mentally organizing everyone in a hierarchy based on grades so that she can feel some sense of superiority. Mami Watari envies Mahiru for her popularity and attention, a sentiment that is only exacerbated by the fact that every boy Mami has ever liked eventually left her because they wanted Mahiru more. Mahiru herself becomes one once informed by Haruka Mukai that Nozomi lives in the same apartment as Kimio and they’ve kissed before. Her jealousy throws her into such a funk that she starts behaving out-of-character and hastily kisses Kimio to get ahead in the perceived competition for him. | |

Ãœbermensch | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_1e6dfea1 | comment |
Übermensch: Nozomi Komine is quite unconcerned with societal standards and how others view her. The only person whose opinion really matters to her is Kimio, so when Michiru decides to turn the class against her, she only makes the effort to set the record straight with him and no one else. Kimio starts taking on this attitude as well when Michiru threatens to ruin his reputation if he blabs, as he’s neither interested in spilling her secret nor concerned about what everyone else thinks as long as Nozomi knows the truth. It’s later shown that Hiroya fell for Nozomi because meeting her and adopting her attitude about not caring what others think helped him get past the shame of his reputation for being a pervert and focus on his personal pride as a bathhouse employee. | |

Brutal Honesty: After the incident with Mami Watarai, Mahiru learns to not hide her true feelings and desires behind her perfect reputation. The first instance seen of this is her flatly turning down a love confession without mincing words to let him down nicely, because she’s in love with Kimio. | |

Mythology Gag: Kimio’s surname—Suga—is also the name of the art college that the cast of Nozoki Ana were students of. While being Date Peepers in chapter 26, there’s a moment where Nozomi and Kimio follow them into the theatre and end up watching a showing of a movie called Nozoki Ana. Kimio briefly fantasizes about a Nozoki Ana 2 starring Nozomi (which is what the series essentially is already). | |

Michiru Sonoda’s Bitch in Sheep's Clothing personality remains unknown to anyone else except Nozomi and Kimio, who are largely disinterested in getting back at her for what she did and mostly content to let people believe whatever so long as they know the truth about each other. Mami Watarai’s actions are similarly kept under wraps and dealt with quietly. | |

Oblivious to Love | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_2848e7d2 | comment |
Oblivious to Love: Kimio has no idea that Makino, Watanuki, and Sonoda are all trying to hit on him during the ski retreat until Nozomi flat out tells him, and even then he brushes it off as them getting caught up in the heat of their girl talk rather than being actually interested in him. Additionally, even when Mami implicitly refers to him as the object of Mahiru’s affections and explains it as the reason she’s targeting him to make Mahiru jealous, he just gets confused. He’s so oblivious that Mahiru’s Forceful Kiss with him on Valentine’s Day doesn’t register to him as romantic until the next day when she tells him that regardless of the misunderstandings and jealousy that led up to it, she still wanted to kiss him, and she asks him to consider her feelings seriously. Despite her being uncannily astute about everyone else’s feelings, and her blatant flirting with him, Nozomi is so used to being an Emotionless Girl that she legitimately has no idea if her feelings for Kimio are love until her Green-Eyed Epiphany when Mahiru starts actively pursuing him. | |

Hidden Depths | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_2dc0d2bf | comment |
Hidden Depths: Hiroya is a shameless pervert and makes no secret of his intent to ogle the female customers of his family’s bathhouse, but beneath it all he actually does take his job at the bathhouse seriously, and is disappointed that his reputation for being a peeping tom supersedes his sincere effort and the pride he takes in his family’s work. The reason he singles out Nozomi as someone he wants to look at when he’s usually indiscriminate about perving on girls is because her Übermensch attitude inspired him to focus on his pride as a bathhouse employee over the disrespect he gets for his perversions, and he developed a crush on her as a result. Ry�ji proves to be far more observant than he lets on and astute about people’s emotions, as he was surprisingly quick to figure out that not only did Mahiru fall in love with Kimio, but that her revealing those feelings could drive a wedge in their friendships with Nozomi and Kimio. He’s not especially known for his smarts, but Iwashimizu’s inner monologue notes that he scores high enough academically for her to bother remembering his name. | |

Accidental Pervert: Aside from the numerous intentionally perverted moments foisted on him by Nozomi, Kimio also has a knack for unintentionally colliding with a girl’s chest or seeing girls undressed. In fact, his entire relationship with Nozomi is kicked off by him accidentally getting trapped in the girls locker room. | |

Chivalrous Pervert | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_30de7a51 | comment |
Chivalrous Pervert: Ry�ji Toba eagerly accepts the affection and food he receives from his female classmates and is just as much of a Hormone-Addled Teenager as the rest of his male classmates, but he’s always gentlemanly to the girls who approach him and demonstrates a nobler side beyond that, such as his abhorrence to the prospect of being Kissing Cousins with Nanako. He’s also protective of his friends’ propriety, as shown when he joins Kimio and Mahiru in getting people to delete the erotic pictures Nozomi uploaded during the selfie competition, or when he gives a Death Glare to guys trying to look up Nozomi’s skirt when he takes her on a date to ease her worries about Kimio and Mahiru’s budding romance. | |

Unrequited Love Switcheroo: At first, Kimio has a crush on Michiru, which seems to grow when she feigns interest in him to get back at Nozomi. While his crush on her ends once her Bitch in Sheep's Clothing nature is exposed, she appears to be genuinely interested in him come chapter 16, seemingly out of gratitude for not spreading her secret to everyone even though he had every reason to. | |

Love Epiphany | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_38b33e8d | comment |
Love Epiphany: Mahiru’s steadily growing feelings for Kimio reach a turning point of realization in chapter 44, when he repudiates Mami’s claim that Mahiru’s popularity is unearned and affirms that he’ll stand by her side no matter what. After over a year, Kimio finally stops running from his feelings and realizes he’s in love with Nozomi while on a date with Mahiru. | |

Love Hurts | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_424d15ad | comment |
Love Hurts: Mami’s resentment of Mahiru is exacerbated by the fact that every guy Mami has ever liked, up to and including her own boyfriend, eventually left her because they preferred Mahiru. The Valentine’s arc shows heartbreak afflicting both Mahiru and Nozomi. For the former, she becomes uncharacteristically distant and insecure after finding out that Nozomi’s relationship with Kimio is much more intimate than Mahiru could have imagined, while the latter experiences the unfamiliar sensation of heartache after witnessing Mahiru and Kimio’s kiss. | |

While being Date Peepers in chapter 26, there’s a moment where Nozomi and Kimio follow them into the theatre and end up watching a showing of a movie called Nozoki Ana. Kimio briefly fantasizes about a Nozoki Ana 2 starring Nozomi (which is what the series essentially is already). | |

Becoming the Mask: Possibly. While Michiru’s efforts to seduce Kimio in her own arc are primarily intended as revenge against Nozomi, she seems to be legitimately invested in getting his attention in chapters 16-17, even after she’s given up on antagonizing Nozomi. | |

Love Dodecahedron | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_4523420b | comment |
Love Dodecahedron: One that has Nozomi and Kimio’s complicated peeping relationship at the center of it. After meeting Kimio, Nozomi begins to come out of her shell and attracts a lot of attention, including from Kana Mitarai and Arata Motoki (who is popular with many girls, including Yukari Akizuki). Kimio’s old classmate Hiroya Tamamori also has a crush on Nozomi which predates her encounter with Kimio. Besides Nozomi, there’s the rest of Kimio’s Unwanted Harem, all of whom fall for him in the aftermath of his involvement in Nozomi’s activities; Yūki Makino (who briefly joined the peeping relationship), Mirei Watanuki, and the popular Michiru Sonoda (who seems to have an Unrequited Love Switcheroo after failing to steal him from Nozomi) in the first year. The second year adds their neighbor and underclassman Haruka Mukai, who believes she and Kimio are destined for each other and is only temporarily turned away after he attempts a Boyfriend Bluff twice, first unsuccessfully with Mahiru Shīna and then with Nozomi. Mahiru is the object of Saya Hayakawa’s affection and is such a Dude Magnet that all the ex-crushes of her childhood friend Mami Watarai left Mami for her. Mami attempted to get revenge by seducing Ry�ji Toba and switched targets when she discovered Mahiru was actually in love with Kimio, something Mahiru herself didn’t realize until the incident with Mami, and wouldn’t act on until Haruka revealed that Nozomi’s Boyfriend Bluff with him involved a kiss. Mami’s latest boyfriend only comes back to her after getting jealous seeing her with Ry�ji. Ry�ji is another Chick Magnet popular with girls, which unfortunately includes his cousin Nanako Yamaki. | |

Sacred First Kiss: Parodied with Yukari, who hugs Kimio in a moment of gratitude and then immediately panics as if she had just given one of these to him when she was saving her first hug for Arata. Played straight in the Valentine’s Day arc, when Mahiru’s decision to kiss Kimio is motivated by envy and insecurity over the knowledge that Nozomi had already taken his first kiss. | |

Taking the Heat: Kimio ends up shouldering the blame when he and Nozomi attempt to catch the ghost haunting outside the girls locker room. The actual culprit Mirei Watanuki had fled the scene and left him with the bedsheet when he tried to apprehend them, leaving him to take the girls’ scorn when they find him. Nozomi manages to clear his name by having Mirei lure classmates back to the pool and posing as a more convincing ghost when they arrive. | |

What Is This Thing You Call "Love"? | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_5028baf2 | comment |
What Is This Thing You Call "Love"?: The crux of Nozomi’s “showing ourselves� routine with Kimio is her unfamiliarity with emotions, and most of what she does is an attempt to better understand what she feels and why she feels it. This is made especially apparent in the Valentine’s Day arc when Ry�ji asks if she’s ever had a first love and she cheerfully answers that she has no freaking clue. | |

Creator Thumbprint: Amongst the elements Wak� Honna likes to include in her works that show up here are 1. an examination of what lies Beneath the Mask, 2. voyeurism with exhibitionism, and 3. an ending where the main heroine moves away for a certain amount of time before eventually reuniting with the protagonist. That last one differs in Nozo × Kimi compared to her other works, as it only describes the ending of the initial monthly publication. The story continues into a weekly publication after that ending. | |

Nozomi is able to convince Nanako to give up on pursuing a Kissing Cousins relationship with Ry�ji by appealing to her Thinks Like a Romance Novel attitude and showing her works where the heroine has this mindset. Hiroya gives up on trying to peep on Nozomi in the bathhouse, content to be greeted by her at the front desk and see her smiling with Kimio. Even after her Green-Eyed Epiphany, Nozomi opts not to interfere with Mahiru’s pursuit of Kimio and decides that since Mahiru was the one to work up the courage to confess, she should be the one Kimio’s with. | |

Kimio himself is the Clueless Chick-Magnet variant, unknowingly attracting the attention of several girls over the course of his misadventures with Komine. By chapter 16, no less than 3 girls are competing with each other for him, and he has no idea. | |

Unwanted Harem | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_71019994 | comment |
Unwanted Harem: When he isn’t being outright Oblivious to Love, Kimio is usually less than receptive to the romantic attention he receives from girls, mostly because said attention comes from girls who bring a lot of trouble to him (i.e. Haruka’s inability to keep the peeping a secret, Michiru’s previous scheming to turn him against Nozomi, and of course Nozomi herself blackmailing him). | |

In-Series Nickname: Nozomi was commonly referred to as “Air� prior to her interactions with Kimio, because she was so expressionless and disinterested in everything that she was regarded as beneath anyone’s notice. After getting their help for the first time, Mahiru dubs Nozomi and Kimio to be the duo Team Nozo×Kimi. | |

She Is Not My Girlfriend: Kimio has to make this clear about his relationship with Nozomi when pressed about it. Few people believe him, though. Kimio also tells Hiroya this when the latter sees Haruka Mukai being affectionate to him. Nozomi will also say this about her relationship with Kimio, though with much less embarrassment, as she herself is uncertain of how to describe it. Specifically, she tells this to Haruka Mukai when asked directly about the Boyfriend Bluff, and to Mahiru when she wants to check if Nozomi’s okay with her giving Valentine’s Day chocolate to Kimio. | |

What Does She See in Him?: When Mami pursues revenge on Mahiru, her initial conclusion is that Mahiru would likely be into Ry�ji, a Chick Magnet and fellow Big Man on Campus who she regularly hangs out with. She’s then left wondering this when she discovers that it’s Kimio who Mahiru’s in love with and not Ry�ji, since he’s comparatively average, unpopular, and Oblivious to Love, and therefore much less fun and more difficult to seduce than she hoped. | |

Slice of Life: Compared to Nozoki Ana, where the peeping relationship’s effect on Kido’s love life was the driving force of the plot, the peeping relationship in Nozo × Kimi is mostly a pretense for the protagonists to have any sort of relationship, and the bulk of the story is episodic, consisting of their work in solving their other classmates’ social and emotional troubles in their daily lives. | |

It’s not helped by the fact that she often confuses his feelings further by reminding him of the peeping arrangement he’s been forced into whenever he seems to be reaching some clarity about their relationship. | |

Oblivious Guilt Slinging: Shortly after receiving chocolate from her on Valentine’s Day, Kimio tells Mahiru that Nozomi feels like Mahiru’s been ignoring her as of late, and that he figured Nozomi was just being self-conscious because she doesn’t know how to deal with Mahiru having called her a friend recently since she has a Friendless Background. What he doesn’t realize is that Mahiru actually has been giving Nozomi the cold shoulder on purpose, driven by envy over learning about Nozomi’s kiss with him, and talking about how it probably made Nozomi happy to know Mahiru considers her a friend is hammering the guilt in with her other conflicted feelings. | |

She ignores every signal he gives that he’s not interested and engages with him in a manner far more invasive and disruptive than Nozomi’s peeping was.

"Not So Different" Remark | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_984ef9ef | comment |
"Not So Different" Remark: Mami Watarai’s envy of the attention and affection that Mahiru gets turns out to be reflective of Mahiru’s own attempts to emulate Mami’s popularity. Admitting that they wanted to be like each other and desired the qualities the other possessed helps them come to an understanding. Mahiru ends up reflecting Mami in another way later on, namely in that she gets resentful and competitive against her own friend when she thinks they’re taking someone away from her. For Mami, it’s her ex-boyfriend and every guy she’s crushed on who she thinks were taken from her by Mahiru. For Mahiru, it’s Kimio who she thinks she has to compete against Nozomi for. For bonus irony points, Mami threatens to give Kimio a "Take That!" Kiss as an act of spite against Mahiru, while Mahiru herself is later driven to kiss Kimio to get one up on Nozomi. | |

By chapter 16, no less than 3 girls are competing with each other for him, and he has no idea. | |

Cloud Cuckoo Lander: It’s never quite understood why Nozomi was such an Emotionless Girl for most of her life. She’s been expressionless and disinterested in everything ever since she was born, to the point of not even crying when she’s hurt. Even after seeing Kimio in her locker sparks her first sense of excitement, her behavior is still quite odd. Furthermore, she’s The Social Expert and can easily deduce how other people feel, but also has No Social Skills and struggles to understand how her words impact people. Her strong attachment to Kimio and obsession with “showing� and peeking at people’s true selves have a weirdly sexual element to them. | |

Secret-Keeper | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_9f970427 | comment |
Secret-Keeper: The main characters share and hold onto several secrets between themselves and for others. First and foremost is that Nozomi is keeping secret the fact that Kimio was in the girls locker room and hiding in her locker, and she’s using this secret to blackmail him. Makino is aware of Nozomi and Kimio’s “showing each other� relationship and even showed Kimio her bare chest when she was part of it, as well as the circumstance that led to Kimio being roped into it. All three of them keep what happened between themselves. Kimio reluctantly decides on Taking the Heat for the ghost instead of ratting out Watanuki being the culprit under the bedsheet. Even after his name is cleared, he and Nozomi don’t share with anyone the ghost’s true identity. Michiru Sonoda’s Bitch in Sheep's Clothing personality remains unknown to anyone else except Nozomi and Kimio, who are largely disinterested in getting back at her for what she did and mostly content to let people believe whatever so long as they know the truth about each other. Mami Watarai’s actions are similarly kept under wraps and dealt with quietly. In addition to being a Secret Secret-Keeper as described below, Ry�ji also keeps silent about Nozomi’s Green-Eyed Epiphany from witnessing Mahiru and Kimio’s kiss for her. | |

First Love: Kimio is very obviously Nozomi’s first (and seemingly only) love, though she’s initially unaware of it due to the question of What Is This Thing You Call "Love"? having eluded her most of her life. When Ry�ji asks why she and Mahiru aren’t as caught up in the mood that has everyone else excited for Valentine’s Day, they both state that they didn’t used to have any idea about what falling in love is like, which Ry�ji correctly deduces is in reference to both girls having Kimio as their first love. | |

However, one of them came right after the other and finished his drink before he could get a sip, meaning neither of them got to give him an indirect kiss. Nozomi ends up giving him her half-finished drink when she sees that his is empty, and the knowledge of having shared an indirect kiss with her keeps him up at night. | |

Karma Houdini | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: Michiru Sonoda doesn’t really suffer any repercussions for trying to humiliate Nozomi and steal Kimio, mostly because neither of them are vindictive enough to care about what others think so long as they know the truth themselves, and she stops antagonizing them after that. | |

The Peeping Tom | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_a74ca4fc | comment |
The Peeping Tom: Nozomi enforces a routine of this on Kimio, though unlike Emiru and Kido’s peeping, hers mostly consists of Kimio watching her in states of undress (i.e. they look at each other through the window, rather than having a schedule where only one gets to look at a time on their allotted day). Hiroya Tamamori is eager to peep on the female customers of his family’s bathhouse, especially once they get a surge of business when Nozomi and Kimio’s apartment complex shuts its plumbing down. His family, aware of his perversions, limits his customer interaction when this happens. He is especially looking forward to getting a good eyeful of Nozomi’s naked body. | |

Love at First Sight: Finding Kimio hiding in her locker sends Nozomi’s heart pounding in a way it never had before, and from then on she doggedly pursues the same sensation by exposing herself to him. This is subverted when it’s revealed that Nozomi has been aware of Kimio since childhood when he regularly visited her apartment to play with her sister while she watched from afar, and therefore the encounter in the locker room was not the first time she saw him. | |

Her first idea is to seduce Ry�ji, but then she switches targets once she figures out that Mahiru’s actually in love with Kimio. At the end, Nozomi tells Kimio that Mami got back together with her boyfriend, who apparently got jealous when he saw her with Ry�ji. | |

Mistaken for Romance: When Mami decides to pursue revenge against Mahiru, she initially aims to seduce the other half of her Those Two Guys status, Ry�ji, under the assumption that they’re into each other. It doesn’t take very long for her to realize that Mahiru’s heart actually belongs to Kimio, something neither of them are aware of yet. Ry�ji is also the first person that comes to mind when the female classmates wonder who Mahiru might have a crush on. The final arc suggests and the last chapter confirms that things may not be entirely platonic between them. | |

Did I Just Say That Out Loud?: Kimio has a habit of thinking his embarrassing answers out loud when asked a personal question. When Nozomi asks his opinion on what her breasts felt like compared to how Makino’s felt, Kimio gives his thoughts about it, then freaks out when he realizes what kind of question he answered. In chapter 48, Kimio while half-asleep answers Haruka’s question about what their peeping relationship means to him, and he answers candidly before realizing that not only was he describing his peeping relationship with Nozomi, but that Haruka heard him and interpreted it as him treasuring her peeping. In chapter 53, he starts describing his first crush from childhood to Nozomi before stopping himself. | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business | |
| Nozo × Kimi (Manga) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Nozomi is very dedicated to her “showing� routine with Kimio and often teases him for his reactions to embarrassing situations, so whenever she doesn’t call him to open the curtains like she always does and gets so distracted that she refrains from commenting on whatever salacious accident he’s landed into with another girl, it’s a sign that something serious is going on with her. Part of why Kimio doesn’t notice the three girls competing for him is because he’s preoccupied with how uncharacteristically wistful Nozomi has been during the ski trip, which is later revealed to be due to her having to move out of the apartment. The other major instance of Kimio worrying when she doesn’t do her usual peepshow is in chapter 55, when she not only forgets to put on any clothing at all, she actually closes her curtains when she comes to, having been thrown into a Heroic BSoD by the sight of his kiss with Mahiru. In turn, Kimio is also subject to this trope, as people such as Haruka Mukai notice that he’s been acting strangely in the absence of his and Nozomi’s daily routine. Kimio notices that Hiroya’s singling out Nozomi as the one he’s trying to peep on is uncharacteristic of him, as he’s usually indiscriminate about perving on girls. This clues him in to Hiroya possibly having a crush on Nozomi. It does not go unnoticed by others when the ordinarily confident and cordial Mahiru becomes inexplicably nervous and starts giving Nozomi the cold shoulder, which unbeknownst to them is because she learned that Nozomi has already gotten a massive lead ahead of her by kissing Kimio. | |

Clingy Jealous Girl: Several examples. Yukari Akizuki isn’t too happy when Arata Motoki seems interested in Nozomi. Saya Hayakawa is quite possessive of Mahiru and doesn’t take kindly to others getting too close to her. Nanako Yamaki from chapters 24-27 is one for her cousin Ry�ji Toba. Haruka Mukai becomes convinced that Kimio is her fated lover and is quite insistent on the idea. She’s very hostile to any rivals, like Nozomi and Mahiru. Mahiru Shīna of all people unexpectedly shows signs of this, becoming driven to get ahead of her perceived competition once she finds out that Nozomi kissed Kimio. | |

This gesture showed her that they would become close friends, and she would eventually fall in love with him. | |
