History PlayingWith / YamatoNadeshiko

** Ryuji is TheIdiotFromOsaka (Amerikamura, in particular) who actively eschews Japanese traditions, [[DelinquentHair styles his already punkish pompadour into increasingly idiotic shapes]], is a loud, bombastic, and overall BoisterousBruiser, doesn't give a rat's ass about how his family thinks, and manages to zigzag being a PaperTiger MilesGloriousus (being that he seems weak and tries to act tough, but can really defeat Sakura and all of her family and friends despite being comedically outnumbered).

** Sakura is a street girl who ''looks'' the part with long dark hair in a HimeCut and is regularly polite to others but this is because she can't find anything to cut her hair, her politeness is really TranquilFury and she refers to herself with {{Bokukko}}. Then she married a noble who fell in love with her and at their wedding she is a picture perfect YN in [[KimonoIsTraditional appearance]] and [[{{keigo}} speech patterns]]. However, this is because she rehearsed with tutors and is a {{tomboy}} in private. Then her family castle is besieged by {{Samurai}} from a rival clan and she takes up a {{naginata|sAreFeminine}} [[MamaBear to protect her family]] and fights [[BattleCouple beside her husband]]. When the siege is over, she washes blood off her kimono, of which [[LadyOfWar none is hers]].

** Sakura really isn't a YamatoNadeshiko. Maybe she's a {{Tomboy}}, a TomboyWithAGirlyStreak, or hell, a girl with personality, it doesn't matter. Despite that, she's forced to be a Nadeshiko in very much the same way that say, English girls were forced to be a ProperLady. When she protests, they call her mannish and "not a true Japanese girl". She succumbs to the pressure, abandons her personality, and becomes a BrokenBird.

* '''Parodied''': Sakura's hair is so long she trips on it and her body is hidden by exaggerated and puffed up traditional clothing. She speaks in nothing but flowery haiku that no one understands. She conducts a tea ceremony with beer and [[CantHoldHisLiquor is quickly drunk as a skunk.]]

** Sakura might not show it, but she her self esteem is damaged because she puts others' needs always before her own. Alternately, she puts the needs of others before herself because she has such low self-esteem.

* '''Straight''': Sakura is somewhat pretty and she has a demure personality. She is also devoted to her friends, family and the man she loves. She writes haiku and performs tea ceremonies. However, while she's certainly polite, she's not a pushover, and can be firm when she needs to be.
