History Characters / Katawashoujo

* NoPeriodsPeriod: [[CrowningMomentOfFunny Hilarously]] adverted with her.

* {{Tomboy}}: Rin has the appearance of a tomboy with her short hair and pants, but this is more due to her physical limitations than personal preference. She would have obvious problems with a skirt, so she's allowed to wear the boy's uniform for convenience's sake.

Lilly's route features a brief appearance by her older sister near the end of the demo. She lives some distance from Yamaku High School. While they were still living together, Lilly didthe cooking for both of them.

* WhenSheSmiles

--> '''Rin:''' I prefer to do it horizontally, IfYouKnowWhatIMean.

** [[DragonBallAbridged That thing's a guy!?]]

* FlatWhat:

* CuttingOffTheBranches

--> '''Hisao''': I have never heard somebody talk so heatedly and defensively about absolutely nothing before.

* MemeticMutation:
** HNNNG!
** After a large number of commenters spammed the above in response to one too many cute pictures, several moderators said that anyone commenting with "a certain onomatopoeia" would be banned. This, of course, led to several comments of "A CERTAIN ONOMATOPOEIA!"

* ArtEvolution: Her sprite was [[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_PlVSuZAj1is/TKWaxm3ZabI/AAAAAAAAAU8/bP9I2V3prqw/s1600/emidevelopment.jpg upgraded]] to look slightly more mature and to be more in line with the other girls.

* FanServicePack

* MemeticBadass: Emi as Horatio Caine.
* MemeticMutation: "Am I [[strike:popular]] [[{{Working}} poplar]] yet?"

* MemeticMutation:
** "[[{{Squick}} Gimme the chocolate, Hisao!]]"
*** [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/921 What's so bad about that?]]
** Hanako as a StringyHairedGhostGirl. Occasionally [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/1289 parodied]] in [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/1267 fanart.]]

* TheWoobie

* MarySueClassic: WordOfGod is that Lilly's first draft was "the most cliched Mary Sue character ever".

* MemeticMutation:
** On the Shimmie site, [[YamatoNadeshiko "Lilly is too classy for X."]] X being anything ranging from arguments to silly acts.
** Also, her rivalry with Shizune: "Who's there? ... No answer, must be that deaf bitch."

* [[FacePalm Face Sole]]: [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/facesole.jpg Observe!]]

* IfYouKnowWhatIMean:
-->'''Rin:''' I prefer to do it horizontally, IfYouKnowWhatIMean.[[hottip:*:Get [[AllMenArePerverts your mind]] [[ThatCameOutWrong out of the gutter!!]] [[DontExplainTheJoke She's talking about painting.]]]]
* LastGirlWins: If you take her route. .

* MemeticBadass: Rin is the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crippled_Masters Crippled Master!]]
* MemeticMutation:
** [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/879 Rin in]] [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/1054 a tin bin.]] That makes me grin.
** Rin [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/930 is]] [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/828 hugging]] [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/935 you.]]
** The problem is in your pants.

* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible: Even Rin seems to have little idea of exactly what she's painting at times.

* FirstGirlWins: If you pick her path
* ManipulativeBitch: In her defense Hisao is probably giving her too much credit and most of her plans are done completely by chance. Although he does point out there is something suspicious about someone whose favorite game is {{Risk}}.

* MemeticMutation: "Why does she need glasses if she's deaf?"

* HollywoodPudgy: Misha is often the butt of fat jokes in the fandom. Despite still being a slim and incredibly attractive girl, just with an additional half an inch of width.
* MemeticMutation: On the on-site image gallery, all anonymous users have the name "Shiina 'Misha' Mikado". It has thus become common for users to call out Misha for saying something stupid/irrelevant/etc, followed by "Wait, I'm Misha." This is a reference to her ThirdPersonPerson tendencies when translating for Shizune.
* [[{{ptitlelwo4ixfv9qsp}} Name's The Same]]: [[{{Pita-Ten}} Not the first overly energetic, pink-haired Misha.]]

* WildMassGuessing: Why ''is'' she there, anyway? The fanbase have taken it UpToEleven. [[hottip:*:To date, the fans have speculated that Misha's disability is: deafness, compulsively obsessive loudness disorder, traumatic brain injury, awesome-itis, born with a tail, autism, asperger's syndrome, male, cancer, aids, liver problems, mutant, obsessive compulsive disorder, brain tumor, gender dysphoria, epilepsy, thalassemia, hologram, [[HaruhiSuzumiya alien, time traveler, esper]], {{hermaphrodite}}, arrhythmia, anosmia, synaesthesia, African trypanosomiasis, osteoporosis, [[OurZombiesAreDifferent zombie]], ménière's disease, nerve degeneration, [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment futanari]], not a virgin anymore, progressive hearing loss, albino, demonic possession, neurofibromatosis, [[{{House}} lupus, not lupus]], tinnitus, eustachian tube dysfunction, crazy bitch syndrome, suicidally depressed, [[CuttingOffTheBranches no route]], peanut allergy, smallpox, pearly penile papules, methylmalonic acidemia, homeless, {{batman}}, keratoconus posticus circumscriptus, colostomy, diabetes mellitus, Leigh's syndrome, [[DeadAllAlong dead]], [[TheUndead undead]], congenital analgesia, [[ObfuscatingDisability not disabled]], two appendixes, Angelman's syndrome, osteogenesis imperfecta, speed addiction, [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment penis]], amputated ears, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Lesch-Nylan syndrome, hemophilia, werewolf, dyslexia, rich, [[SchoolgirlLesbians lesbianism]], obesity, dissociative identity disorder, infertility, teen pregnancy, puppet, dandruff, vertigo, [[HigurashiNoNakuKoroNi Hinamizawa syndrome]], [[OurVampiresAreDifferent vampire]], werepoodle, amnesia, apathy, robot. A KS dev has confirmed that she [[http://s895.photobucket.com/albums/ac153/AriasV/?action=view¤t=MishasDisability.png broke a nail in 3rd grade.]]]]

* CaptainErsatz: Subverted. Kenji bears an obvious resemblance to HarryPotter, but any thoughts that he might be a remotely similar character disappear as soon as he opens his mouth. And refuses to shut it.

* [[EvenEvilHasStandards Even Crazy Has Standards]]: Men who like futanari porn are not welcome in Kenji's army.
* FanNickname: Harry Potter, or Kenji Potter. You don't need to ask why, right?

* OnlySaneMan: Kenji is convinced he is this.

* MemeticBadass: [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/1632 Fuck. Yes.]]

* FanWank: Speculated to have had a [[PairTheSpares past relationship with Kenji]].

Lilly's route features a brief appearance by her older sister near the end of the demo. She lives some distance from Yamaku High School. While they were still living together, Lilly did the cooking for both of them.

* FanWank:
** Fan works and non-canon art [[TokenShipping pair]] her with Shizune's still unseen younger brother [[AttractiveBentGender Hideaki]].
** Non-canon art also casts her as being in TheMafia or the {{Yakuza}}. It helps that she appears to be DressedToKill.

** FridgeLogic: She must ''really'' be a bad cook if her blind younger sister did most of the coooking.

* DroppedABridgetOnHim: Seems to be inevitable, since some fans still hope that Hideaki will be female. However, since Hideaki has yet to make a canon appearance, it could [[SweetOnPollyOliver go the other way]] around [[RecursiveCrossdressing as well.]]

* TokenShipping: Often shipped with fellow crossdresser Akira.

* BeautifulDreamer: Neatly describes the fandom's response to Suzu, the narcoleptic student.
* {{Jossed}}: WordOfGod says that Molly is not a ''Katawa Shoujo'' character and her appearance was merely a cameo.

* ShipTease: [[http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/post/view/1828?search=yuri Naomi and Natsume]] as mentioned above.

* ManipulativeBitch: Although her personal brand of manipulation seems to be "Do what I ask, or I'll make sad puppy dog eyes at you". Still works though.

* PersonalSpaceInvader: As exemplified by [[http://dl.katawa-shoujo.com/pr/wallpapers/misha_wp_1600x1200.png this wallpaper]].

* ShoutOut: Ritsu Tainaka?? Lelouch???

* ShoutOut/{{Expy}}: Ritsu Tainaka?? Lelouch???
