Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Good Morning Call is a Netflix Original Romcom. A live-action adaptation of the 1997-2002 Ribon-published Shoujo manga of the same name created by Yue Takasuka, it runs on an even mixture of Rule of Funny and Rule of Drama and, oh, did we mention the Romance Tropes? 'Cause there's many.High School girl Nao rents her own Tokyo apartment after her parents move away to the country so she can finish school in the city. Too late she realizes the apartment she now calls home has also been leased to her schoolmate Uehara, both of them having been tricked into signing the contract. Despite their initial horror they quickly must agree that due to a lack of funds they'll have to share - and no one can know about it either, as neither the school nor their families would allow the underage students to live together. Very soon, trouble arises when Nao's group of friends starts getting nosy, and Nao has to realize that there's suddenly a whole number of boys in her life vying for her attention ...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Here there be spoilers for the first season. The second season debuted on Netflix in late 2017.

Canon Foreigner: Daichi was an original character created for the live-action series. Most of the new cast members in the second season are also original characters, as it was a sequel with an original story.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Uehara behaves callously towards Nao, his family, and anyone else he finds annoying, although he's notably polite in his work environment. Beneath it all he's someone who has serious issues with forming relationships, which has something to do with growing up an orphan and experiencing a rather bad case of unrequited love at a young age.Though Uehara's admittedly very slow about showing it, by the last few episodes he can admit his feelings for Nao to himself and her and clearly appreciates being around people who care about him.

Just Friends: Played for drama. It seems like every every time a girl and boy spend enough time with each other, if they already don't have a crush, at least one ends up falling in love with the other. Saeko believes its inevitable while Nanase & Natsume tries to subvert this with Daichi and Nao respectiviely.

Green-Eyed Epiphany: Uehara comes very close to one after seeing Nao having fun with Issei who has aked her to pretend to be his girlfriend for a day in ordner to get out of a pickle. Note that this is some time after Nao and Uehara officially get together, and the latter had apparently had no objections to Issei's unusual idea.

Cool Old Lady: The Landlady allows the two Main Characters to live together when they explain their circumstance. Later, when the school discovers them, she arranges that they be moved into separate housing, as demanded by the school... However, as the school failed to specify details, she arranged the houses to be so close their doors are mere meters apart. She also arranges the original apartment they rented to be available in three years time so that they will have a home to come back to when they are married.

Can't Live with Them, Can't Live Without Them
 Good Morning Call / int_d904a7fd

Can't Live With Them, Can't Live Without Them: The basic premise of the story. Uehara keeps saying he wishes for the unwanted living situation to be over and to live alone, and so does Nao, though she quickly grows out of it. Then, in the final episode, Uehara's wish comes true - but by now he's come clean about his feelings and doesn't want Nao to leave.

Interrupted Intimacy: At the hot springs Nao and Uehara end up sharing a room together. Nao, worried about the implications of sleeping alone in the same room as Uehara, flinches whenever he so much as stretches so Uehara decides he'll sleep elsewhere. Nao runs after him and tells him she wants to be with him and the two embrace. Uehara notes how hot Nao is and she replies she feels dizzy... and then passes out - a consequence of standing around in the cold for so long earlier in the day.
