* TranquilFury: When Yuko and Kiyoshi come home one night to discover that their kids have trashed the living room while fighting over the remote, a visibly seething Yuko calmly tells them that they'll all be sleeping on the sidewalk if they don't clean up this mess ''right now''. Cue the kids (and Kiyoshi) fearfully cleaning up under her watchful eye.

* FormerTeenRebel: Teenage Kiyoshi was a violent thug who didn't go to school and terrorized the neighborhood on a regular basis. Yuko's love changed him for the better, and nowadays he's both an HonestCorporateExecutive and a much calmer man (though God help you if you threaten his family or flirt with his wife).

* SheIsAllGrownUp: Arguably the central trope of the story, as the boys have to adjust to their old friend being ''very'' easy on the eyes. Reiko is fully aware of their interest and can occasionally be something of a [[TheTease tease]].
** HeIsAllGrownUp is arguably in effect as well. While a little more socially awkward than his friends, Nikki is an arguable example of NerdsAreSexy, while Mocchi is a pretty straight example of TallDarkAndHandsome, being OneHeadTaller than Reiko and apparently something of a {{Hunk}} - ''Reiko'' ends up ogling him[[https://twitter.com/TinaFate1/status/1689565804998885376/photo/1]] after they re-enact their childhood 'who's buffer' contest.

''Childhood Tomboy Friend'' is an ongoing webcomic series created by [[https://twitter.com/TinaFate1/status/1689565754658865152?s=20 TinaFate1]]. The series has also been edited into a series of Youtube shorts by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R064ZuANv3M Bread-n-Butter]]

The series is a slice of life ecchi comedy centered on Reiko, the titular tomboy, and her childhood friends, Nikki and Mocchi. The trio were thick as thieves in elementary school but at some point Reiko moved away. More than a decade later and she's back in town and happy to pick things up with her old best pals, but Reiko is far more ... ''womanly'' than either of the boys remember.

!Featured Tropes
* ChildhoodFriend: Nikki, Mocchi and Reiko. Reiko was separated from the boys years ago but was fond enough of them to remember and seek them out years later. Barring a few [[StupidSexyFriend hormonal hiccups]] they don't seem to have missed a beat.
* LongHairIsFeminine: Aside from the obvious affects of puberty, one of the major changes in Reiko's character design after the opening timeskip is her old BoyishShortHair has grown out well down her back.
* TheNicknamer: Reiko. In Episode 2, 'Nikki' is implied to a nickname... and a somewhat embarrassing one. 'Mocchi' might be a nickname as well, as only Reiko addresses the pair directly and neither boys' name has been confirmed.
* SheIsAllGrownUp: Arguably the central trope of the story, as the boys have to adjust to their old friend being ''very'' easy on the eyes. Reiko is fully aware of their interest and can occasionally be something of a [[TheTease tease]].
** HeIsAllGrownUp is arguably in effect as well. While a little more socially awkward than his friends, Nikki is an arguable example of NerdsAreSexy, while Mocchi is a pretty straight example of TallDarkAndHandsome, being OneHeadTaller than Reiko and apparently something of a {{Hunk}} - ''Reiko'' ends up ogling him[[https://twitter.com/TinaFate1/status/1689565804998885376/photo/1]] after they re-enact their childhood 'who's buffer' contest.
* {{Tomboy}}: Obviously. While 18-year-old Reiko[[https://twitter.com/TinaFate1/status/1689565754658865152/photo/4]] is arguably a GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak after puberty gave her a massive GirlinessUpgrade, as a child Reiko fit this trope to a T. 4-year-old Reiko[[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F2wQ5tfbAAEGOGq?format=jpg&name=large]] would rather roughhouse or play in the dirt than hang out with other girls, and adult Reiko still is boisterous and into classically "nerdy" things like anime and niche mobile games.
