History VisualNovel / Tayutama

%%* DropTheHammer -- Mashiro's primary weapon, even when she's in her loli form.

Based on the VisualNovel by Lump of Sugar, adapted into an anime in the spring of 2009. A fandisc, ''Tayutama -It's happy days-'' was released in 2009, and an UpdatedRerelease is planned. A sequel visual novel, ''Tayutama 2 -You're the Only One'', was released in 2016, with it's own fandisc, ''Tayutma 2 -After Stories-'', released the year after.

* AfterTheEnd -- The very last scenes in the anime appears to be the sunken ruins of Japan similar to a scene in ''Evangelion''...we don't get to know how it happens, and there wasn't any hint about it ever going to happen at all during the series...and the only purpose of that scene is to show the two main characters reuniting (both appearing to not have aged at all).
* AllAnimeIsNaughtyTentacles -- Episode 4's fight with Nue.
* BattleAura
* BitterSweetEnding -- While they stop the BigBad, and seemingly reform him, Mashiro still ends up dying, or at least going into a long sleep. Either way, they don't get to spend time with each other until a DistantFinale where it seems the city he lived in is in ruins.

* CensorSteam -- Episode 9 has one during Mashiro's dream sequence.

* DefeatMeansFriendship -- Nue and Houou the Phoenix after being beaten. The lesser spirits seem to fall into this trope as well, and don't seem to cause trouble after Mashiro tells them not to. [[spoiler: In the end also including Oryu, the dragon]].
* DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale -- After Sankuro jokes about Ameri having a crush on Yuri, she punches him in the chest.
* DropTheHammer -- Mashiro's primary weapon, even when she's in her loli form.
* EyesAlwaysShut -- Sankuro.

* MeaningfulName -- Mashiro gets her name after professing delight over a marshmello, and literally translates to "pure white" (which matches her Kurirami outfit).

* MurderTheHypotenuse -- As Ameri watches Mashiro, slowly win Yuuri's heart, she decides (with no small amount of influence from the Dragon) that Yuuri shouldn't have to risk his life with all this magical nonsense. She concludes that the only way to keep Yuuri safe is to drive Mashiro away... with a little help from the villain. In case this you didn't realize this a bad call, she gets bat wings, DullEyesOfUnhappiness, and a dark purple aura.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero -- After Yuri tells Ameri to escape on her bike, she accidentally causes it to crash into the wooden seal, causing it to unleash all the spirits trapped there.
* TheOjou -- Mifuyu, an honor student of Flawless.
* PowerGivesYouWings -- The Phoenix grants a pair to Yumina, Ameri gets a pair from the Dragon. Yumina's are golden and angelic, therefore good. Ameri's are black and leathery, therefore not good.
* SealedEvilInACan -- And SealedGoodInACan in Mashiro.

* TokenMiniMoe -- Nue.
* {{Tearjerker}} -- The final episode...who could have thought this show contained such tearjerking moments...
* {{Tsundere}} -- Ameri.
* UnluckyChildhoodFriend -- Poor Ameri.

* ThemeTuneCameo -- The KaraokeBox session from episode nine uses this one.

* ZettaiRyouiki -- Ameri, appears to be a Grade B.

She ends up living at Yuuri's house, ending up married to him after a kiss.
