Philosophia | |
| Philosophia (Manga) | comment |
Philosophia is a Yuri Genre Slice of Life manga by Shuninta Amano. It follows the story of Ai, a beautiful, diligent, but antisocial college student, who finds herself bonding with a fellow student named Tomo—a strange young woman who doesn't seem to be interested in anything but smoking, reading books, and maintaining the status quo in her life.Readers beware that Philosophia is, by a wide margin, Shuninta Amano's darkest and moodiest work to date. You Have Been Warned. | |

| Philosophia (Manga) / int_19f527df | comment |
Blowing Smoke Rings: Tomo can do this, Ai cannot, despite her best efforts. After Tomo's death, Ai finally learns this trick, among other things she carries on for Tomo's sake. | |

Like Father, Like Son: Tomo is perfectly aware how much like her sleazebag of a father she is, and is not thrilled by it. | |

So Beautiful, It's a Curse | |
| Philosophia (Manga) / int_3b9b21c9 | comment |
So Beautiful, It's a Curse: Ai's natural beauty is an endless source of frustration for her, since she is not interested in becoming anyone's trophy wife, like everyone assumes she would, given her looks. In the end, she grows to accept it, however, and even considers it a boon, since it would fetch a good price for Tomo, if she pimps her out—even though this mere suggestion freaks Tomo out immensely. | |

Hair-Contrast Duo: Ai has long blonde hair and is a diligent and driven student, while Tomo's hair is short and dark, and she is a perfect slacker drifting through life with no particular aspirations. | |

| Philosophia (Manga) / int_4133a8bc | comment |
Forgets to Eat: One time, Ai finds Tomo collapsed in her home and has to take her to the hospital for malnutrition and sleep deprivation. Tomo explains that she was so caught up in her books that she forgot to eat and sleep. Much later, it is revealed that she actually got too caught up in her "side business". | |

| Philosophia (Manga) / int_48081842 | comment |
The Stinger: Years into the future, Ai has not been able to love anyone as much as she loved Tomo, but the very end shows Tomo's step-sister walking up to Ai, and she looks almost exactly like Tomo. The end implies some sort of romance might ensue. | |

Downer Ending | |
| Philosophia (Manga) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: It looks like the situation can be saved until the last moment... and then Tomo leaves and never comes back, leaving Ai unable to love anyone else ever again. Depending on how you look at it, The Stinger makes it slightly better... or a lot creepier. | |

The Oldest Profession: Tomo eventually reveals that in order to earn enough cash to leave the country, she pimped out young women she knew to her father's old and rich friends, occasionally joining them for threesomes if they so desired. She draws a clear line when it comes to Ai, however. | |

Tragic Keepsake | |
| Philosophia (Manga) / int_97d54bb0 | comment |
Tragic Keepsake: It's never said explicitly, but the lighter Tomo gives to Ai in the last chapter is strongly implied to become this for her. It is the same lighter that Ai gave to Tomo when they first met—Tomo kept it all those years as a lucky charm and never used it; in fact, she didn't even need it in the first place, she just used it as an excuse to strike up a conversation with Ai. | |
