!!This book provides examples of:
* AttemptedRape: Yasuo tries to do this to Hatsue--going so far as to pin her down--but is promptly cut off by a pesky hornet.
* AntiClimax: One of the biggest complaints with the story is that all the problems get HandWaved away if not outright ignored completely at the ending of the book.
* BookDumb: Shinji.
* ComingOfAgeStory
* DisappearedDad: Shinji's father died during a bombing attack in World War II.
* HollyWoodHomely: Chiyoko.
* JerkAss: Yasuo.
* LoveAtFirstSight: Shinji to Hatsue, and vice-versa.
* LoveTriangle: Two of them. Shinji has a crush on Hatsue, and as does Yasuo. Fair enough. Chiyoko happens to like Shinji, but unfortunately for her, he barely knows she exists, and her low self-esteem makes the situation especially problematic for her.
** When Chiyoko realizes this, she uses Yasuo to spread a rumor claiming that Shinji and Hatsue had slept together. She does regret it later on.
* ThanksForTheMammary
* YamatoNadeshiko: Considering that the book can be described as Mishima's love song to traditional Japanese culture, it's unsurprising that Hatsue fits this trope perfectly.
