Nariyuki Yuiga is one of the brightest twelfth-graders at Ichinose Academy. Having come from an impoverished family, he strives to achieve the school's "Special VIP Recommendation" scholarship, which will fully cover his college tuition and thus help provide for his widowed mother and his three younger siblings.He eventually gets shortlisted for the scholarship, albeit under the condition that he tutor the two brightest girls of his batch, Rizu Ogata and Fumino Furuhashi, and help them qualify for their college degree of choice. That soon proves to be easier said than done, given that Rizu, a prodigy in mathematics and science, wants to pursue psychology, and Fumino, an expert at the arts and literature, would rather be an astronomer, despite being hopelessly weak in either literature and math, respectively.Now Nariyuki has his hands full with trying to achieve his dreams, as well as guiding Rizu and Fumino, as well as his childhood friend Uruka Takemoto, Ichinose's top swimmer who sorely needs to improve her grades (especially English) to earn an athletics scholarship, to theirs. Joining along for the ride is their college-age upperclassman Asumi Kominami, who needed good grades in science to be able to enter a medical school and thus be able to help at her family-run clinic, and Mafuyu Kirisu, Rizu and Fumino's stern former tutor.We Never Learn (�����勉強�����, Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai, or Bokuben for short) is a romantic comedy manga written and illustrated by Taishi Tsutsui, which was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2017 to 2020 and collected into 21 volumes.The manga received an anime adaptation directed by Yoshiaki Iwasaki for Studio Silver and Arvo Animation in 2019, with the first season airing in winter and the second and final season airing in fall.Compare The Quintessential Quintuplets, a Weekly Sh�nen Magazine manga that started the same year and shares a similar premise, with a major difference being that the five girls are identical quintuplet sisters. | |

Genre Savvy | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_1777688d | comment |
Genre Savvy: When Nariyuki's friend Omori sees that two of the hottest girls in the school are suddenly spending a lot of time around Nariyuki, he outright calls him a romantic comedy protagonist. Nariyuki scoffs at the idea, before spending the rest of the chapter having comedic interactions with the girls and starting to realize he might be attracted to them. | |

Take Off Your Clothes: In chapter 102, just after Nariyuki seeing Mafuyu in nothing but a towel, he tells her to take off her clothes which cause the latter to give him a seething look. He clarifies that he wants her to change her clothes. | |

Imagine the Audience Naked: While Kirisu is putting him through a faux interview, Nariyuki tries to push aside how intimidating she is at the moment by picturing her in her tracksuit. Instead, he ends up picturing her in a swimsuit, and his imagination keeps putting her in different fanservicey outfits while he tries to settle on something less embarrassing. | |

Chekhov's Gag | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_22cf50f9 | comment |
Chekhov's Gag: In chapter 78, Nariyuki buys Fumino a gift for her birthday but, due to a case of Satchel Switcheroo, ends up giving her his little sister's new bra instead, which turns out to be several sizes too big for her. A few arcs later, Fumino ends up temporarily living with Nariyuki's family due to a fight with her father and ends up sharing a bath with Mizuki. Cue the little sister teasing her for having the smaller bust. | |

| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_25a7dcb9 | comment |
Suggestive Collision: Very frequently, Nariyuki will find himself on the accidental receiving end of some mammary, usually followed by intense blushing and awkwardness. In chapter 119, Mafuyu crashing her bust into him and knocking him unconscious against a trunk causes him to dream the chapter's main contents of going to an amusement park with her in her youth, and ends with the young Mafuyu falling on him with her bust and knocking him unconscious again. | |

It normally would not much of a problem, except she was trapped in it with Nariyuki and there were no other employees at the time. When she couldn't hold it any longer she had Nariyuki turn around and cover his ears. When she was about to go, her coworker Machiko opened the door and saw the scene. | |

Gossip Evolution: In Chapter 37, Fumino asks for help in cooking curry since she doesn't know how to cook. What starts with innocent inquiry goes to Rizu thinking she wants a "yummy boyfriend"note Fumino misspells curry (karee) as boyfriend (kare), goes to Uruka as Fumino wanting a high-grade man, which goes to Asumi as wanting a boy like Nariyuki, and ends with Mafuyu straight up asking about Fumino's love life. It somehow works out in the end, since Mafuyu gives Fumino some advice on making curry to win men over. | |

Gratuitous English | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_2e6a41e0 | comment |
Gratuitous English: Used extensively in episode 4 of season 2, when Nariyuki is attempting to help Uruka study English. They spend part of the day attempting to speak only English. Later two Americans ask Uruka for directions, then tries to invite her to their barbecue. Nariyuki attempts to intervene, only to accidentally say that she was his "precious steady", aka a "girlfriend", instead of "precious study friend" as he intended. Interestingly, during The Stinger, the puppy that ran into Uruka and Nariyuki starts speaking English with its mother when it returns home. | |

Lap Pillow | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_348e5217 | comment |
Lap Pillow: In chapter 54, Asumi gives one to Nariyuki to clean his ears. In chapter 77, Nariyuki fantasizes Uruka and himself as a couple, him resting his head on her lap under a tree. In chapter 92, while both were hypnotized, Nariyuki and Rizu received and gave each other one. In chapter 119, Nariyuki was given one by Mafuyu after he was knocked out by her twice (he was knocked out in the present and later in the past, both instances caused him to time travel but from Present!Mafuyu's perspective Nariyuki was out for only two minutes). In chapter 121, a drowsy Nariyuki coddles Fumino like a cat when her head falls upon his lap. | |

False Start: In episode 8, Nariyuki starts getting Distracted by the Sexy when Uruka is around him. He also overhears her friends suggesting that she likes him, and later in the episode accidentally asks her that. She laughs it off, suggesting that she was interested in someone else. The Stinger after the credits reveals that feels bad about lying to him, but is also afraid if he rejected her Love Confession, it would destroy the relationship they currently have, so tries to reason that for now this was for the best. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Mafuyu slips and falls towards Nariyuki, noticing the similairites to a scene in a Shojo manga she had read recently where the main character falls and is caught by her love interest. Unfortunately, the physics of the full body weight of an adult woman landing on an unathletic teenager decide to assert themselves and she flattens Nariyuki beneath her. Fumino runs away from home and lives in Nariyuki's house. It's shown that behind their children's backs, her father and his mother were in contact with one another with him giving his blessing for Fumino to stay there and, given the Yuigas' financial situation, providing funds to cover her living expenses. | |

Characterization Marches On | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_479f9ad0 | comment |
Characterization Marches On: Rizu, Fumino, and Nariyuki all seem like wildly different characters than how they were introduced. Fumino's more blunt and sarcastic personality became more internalized after befriending the study group, Nariyuki has a lot more "off guard" and vulnerable moments, and Ogata is much more expressive. Kirisu Mafuyu's sternness upon introduction was actually Played for Drama, with her being more antagonistic to the main cast. After her Hidden Heart of Gold reveal, she gradually became more Comically Serious. | |

Foreign Farewell: In chapter 90, Uruka kisses Nariyuki on the lips in the premise that it was practice for a common greeting overseas before proceeding to tell him that she will be studying abroad. From chapter 91, continuing from the previous chapter, Uruka insists it was just practice since it was a common greeting overseas. The next day, after hearing what happened from Uruka, her friends correct her that it is actually on the cheek not on the lips which caused her mental anguish over what she daringly did. | |

The Unreveal: Before the Cultural Festival starts, Nariyuki notes that the "jinx" about ending up with the person you're touching while the fireworks start turns out to be real. When the time comes, he ends up falling in a pile with Uruka, Fumino, Rizu, Asumi, and Mafuyu, but the fireworks fail to go off. They start for real just as one of the aforementioned five is taking Nariyuki's hand to help him up, but a shadow hides which girl it is. In the anime, the second season's ending implies that it's Uruka. It's them in the manga, but there's alternate arcs for everyone else. | |

A bonus illustration shows that her use of them was one of the reasons that Nariyuki never met her while she was a student there and shows an instance when they just missed each other. | |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes? | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_5beef860 | comment |
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Mafuyu is terrified of cockroaches to such degree that the sight of one leaves her leaping in fear. Asumi is terrified of rodents ever since she witnesses a large nest of mice in a patient's home which the latter was raising. | |

Recognition Failure: In episode 4 of season 2, Nariyuki fails to recognize the pretty girl sitting next to him as Rizu after she gets an extreme makeover, including hair extensions and contact lenses, and new outfit from a hairstylist who went overboard to transform her looks. It's only after she invites him to her home, where she casually mentions that they'd be in trouble if she wasn't bringing lots of people there, that he then realizes he had been with Rizu all along. Status Quo Is God then kicks in, and Rizu tells Fumino the next day that she stopped wearing the hair extensions because they were too heavy, and goes back to her normal look. | |

With a Friend and a Stranger: The initial tutoring group has this dynamic, with Nariyuki as the protagonist, Uruka as the friend, and Fumino and Rizu as the strangers. Unusually for this trope, Uruka is actually introduced a few chapters after Fumino and Rizu as the third student Nariyuki is made to tutor. | |

Babies Ever After: Played with. At the end of Asumi's route, she indicates that she wants to have a child with Nariyuki somewhere down the line; her tankoubon reveals they have a whopping four children, the fourth already on the way. Similarly, the end of Mafuyu’s route has her ask her new husband Nariyuki how many children he wants to have; similar to Asumi, her tankoubon reveals she has two kids with Nariyuki. Rizu was eventually revealed to have children in her route post-series, but it was only one child. | |

Big Brother Worship: Nariyuki is the object of this from his younger sister, Mizuki, (which borders on Big Brother Attraction at times), like when she attempts to "seduce" Nariyuki through exposing herself◊. Mafuyu is also the object of admiration by her own younger sister, Miharu, who believes Mafuyu is perfect in every way (and who soon ends up jealous of her and Nariyuki's close relationship). | |

Logical Weakness | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_83641c73 | comment |
Logical Weakness: Because they are so talented at their specialties, Ogata and Furuhashi find it difficult to actually explain said concepts to others. This is why they need Nariyuki to tutor them. This issue also means that they are incapable of tutoring one another. A large part of their issues outside their subjects. Ogata is so logical and scientifically minded that understanding of the emotions behind a work of literature, be it author intent or the characters of the story, often eludes her. Furuhashi, on the other hand, is so naturally artistic and emotional that the hard numbers of science and mathematics quickly overwhelm her. | |

The next day, she confessed...to the dark-haired one. | |

Deconstruction: Of many of the assorted genius tropes, as the manga shows how Rizu and Fumino's talent left them without experience at studying, hence why they have so many hurdles to pursue their field of choice. This also extends to Reiji, whose knowledge of mathematics became useless when it came to mending his relationship with his daughter. | |

Accidental Pun | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_927d046a | comment |
Accidental Pun: The Kirisu sisters' old pet dog was named as Pero in the original Japanese (which referred to the Japanese onomatopoeia for 'licking'). The Viz translation of Chapter 46 kept the same general word as its name, but added in an extra R, making it into Perro. Thus, while in the original, it references the fact that dogs lick a lot; the Viz version's extra R then changing it into Perro - (which can mean 'dog' or 'doggy' in Spanish) - thereby still retains the simple dog-related naming theme (not unlike Spot or Fido in English). | |

Test Kiss: Played for laughs. Since Nariyuki has kissed Rizu twice, she has developed the penchant of offering him to kiss if he needs practice, albeit this being Rizu, she offers it more out of curiosity rather than from desire or lust (though it's implied that she's begun liking it). Nariyuki thus far has told her no, but if she keeps insisting… | |

Nobody Here but Us Statues: In chapter 96, in the clothing store that Uruka and Fumino followed Nariyuki to, the former pretends to be a mannequin to avoid his detection since he wasn't wearing his glasses. (Un?)Fortunately for her Nariyuki's job while there was to move the mannequins and so he had to hold her close in an embrace yet he never was the wiser that it was her. | |

Compressed Adaptation | |
| We Never Learn (Manga) / int_bdc94cd9 | comment |
Compressed Adaptation: The Anime Adaptation ultimately adapts about half of the manga's content before jumping ahead to a timeskip ending. While the ending is open-ended, it does leave the implication that Uruka was the "victor". | |

Hard Work Hardly Works | |

Hard Work Hardly Works: One of the key aspects of the series is averting this. Both Rizu and Furuhashi want to be able to study their true passions despite their initial lack of any talent at their respective subjects. Nariyuki himself was a poor student until he continually worked at his subjects to get to where he is now. | |

Offscreen Inertia: Averted for Hino-san, the student that Mafuyu encouraged to apply for a music academy and was rendered miserable from being unable to get in, which deeply affected Mafuyu and led her to discourage Rizu and Fumino from trying to achieve their difficult education goals. She was found by Nariyuki to be now happily playing in an independent band even though she didn't go to a music school and will always be grateful for Mafuyu's encouragement. | |

Contrived Coincidence: Just when things are looking south for Nariyuki and Uruka's attempt to patch things up with each other, Sawako texts Fumino about if she looks good in a ponytail. Fumino sends the wrong piece of advice to Nariyuki (complimenting the ponytail), but ends up resolving the problem anyway, since all that Uruka wanted was for Nariyuki to call her cute sometimes. | |

Judging from her second appearance, she apparently just wants to do different things and leaves the previous undertaking in someone else's hands. | |
