* OldShame: An In-Universe example with Kadota. When the manmade lake starts to lower during an annual draining, he notices something sticking out of it, and immediately jumps into the water to try and hide it. Unfortunately his old age works against him, and he nearly drowns. He then escapes the hospital a few hours later, and tries to return to the lake, but fails again. It's later revealed that when he was younger, he caused an incident with a festival that caused a parade float to sink into said lake, and he was trying really hard to hide it. And he ends up causing a StreisandEffect because it makes the townspeople more curious about it. Fortunately Yoshino and the others manage to salvage the situation and attracts a lot of visitors there, much to Kadota's embarrassment.
Added DiffLines:
* StockholmSyndrome: The senior citizens living in the nearby Warabiya village takes Yoshino "hostage" and declare their intention to leave the kingdom of Manoyama due to a planned cut to a bus route to their village. As this was the only lifeline to the outside world for many residents, Yoshino plays along with the seniors. They eventually reach a compromise where a smaller bus would arrive on demand, so as not to waste the city's resources on a bus that wouldn't get many passengers.
Added DiffLines:
* WhenLifeGivesYouLemons: Though never specifically spoken, despite repeated setbacks and failures, the girls never let those issues bring them down for too long, and instead use ThePowerOfFriendship and their ingenuity to try and make the best of the situation they're in. In one example, when a woodcarver continues to work on a statue that no longer has a paying customer, Yoshino has the Tourism board buy it and put it in the train station to show off Manoyama's artwork and culture.

They later had Ririko, but then divorced shortly afterwards, and Ririko's father was then reassigned overseas for the company he worked for.

Added DiffLines:
* HistoryRepeats: The girls find that most of their projects have previously been tried to be implemented before and failed; the main difference comes from the impression that at least the girls are learning from their mistakes, while it seems that the tourism board didn't learn themselves when they failed.
Added DiffLines:
* RealityEnsues: The main ethos of the series. In spite of their efforts of revitalization, the girls find that they're fighting an uphill battle against the public's apathy and the limitations that the bucolic setting brings them.

''Sakura Quest'' follows Yoshino Koharu, a young girl trying to look for a job in Tokyo, but who is only met with a series of rejections. However, she has a seemingly lucky break when she receives a job offer to work with with the tourism board of the economically struggling Manoyama village as their "Queen." With no other choice, Yoshino accepts the offer and travels to Manoyama only to find out that she was hired based on a case of mistaken identity and that her contract term is for one year instead of the one day, as she had initially thought. With nowhere else to go, Yoshino reluctantly becomes Queen of Manoyama.
In the wake of a nationwide movement during the Bubble economy period, a Manoyama is aiming to revive itself through a "mini-nation" tourism program; hiring the five leads as travel ambassadors with Yoshino as their queen. The series will follow a year's time of the five girls as they work in the tourism agency of a small failing town in an effort to reinvigorate it.
