History YMMV / TheWallflower

* UncannyValley: Some find the male leads creepy looking.

** One time, when Sunako was being harassed by Kyohei's fangirls and the guys told Kyohei to say something to stop it, he [[http://www.mangareader.net/221-15796-13/perfect-girl-evolution/chapter-86.html announced he was going out with Ranmaru.]] In a later chapter, when Kyohei was being haunted by the spirits of said fangirls, he actually [[http://www.mangareader.net/221-56985-27/perfect-girl-evolution/chapter-100.html kissed Ranmaru in his sleep.]] In both cases, the fangirls [[YaoiFangirl didn't seem to mind.]] Ranmaru, on the other hand...

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: It's easy to interpret this one of two ways. Either "The need to fit societal definitions of beauty is more important than being yourself!", or "Supposedly 'ugly' women can be beautiful, too, with just a little love and care!".
* FranchiseZombie: It could have ended quite happily after the 12th volume, been forgiven by ending after the 15th/16th and at least redeemed by ending at a nice round 20. It got so bad that by the time they hit 29 volumes and a little over 100 chapters, even the ''scanlators'' had given up. Thankfully, it finally ended in 2015, but by that time they had over ''36 volumes worth of material'' before the big finale occurred.

* LostAesop: The intended moral is "There are different kinds of 'ladies' than the prim and proper in ballgowns kind" or "BeYourself, but have some situational awareness." This gets fuzzy at times....

* {{Rule Of Cool}}/{{Rule Of Funny}}/{{Rule Of Drama}}/{{Rule Of Fun}}: The fuel of the series.

* NarmCharm: This series is just ridiculous; the characters are always screaming, the conflicts that arise are driven solely by RuleOfFunny and/or RuleOfCool with no regard reality, the ways the characters solve the conflicts are ham-fisted at best, the [[OffModel animation is wonky]], the moral is [[UnfortunateImplications questionable]], and in the end, [[StatusQuoIsGod nothing is ever really accomplished.]] But you know what? It's ''fun.''

* TearJerker: In the JDrama, [[spoiler: Kyohei bursting into heart-broken sobs right after his mother has a breakdown, screams that she shouldn't have given birth to him, and his father forbids him to see her (to make matters worse, this is the scene right after Kyohei's mother seems to accept him again and has asked him to come home more often)]].
** There is not one person alive that is immune to Kyohei's tears.

* EndingFatigue: The manga doesn't seem to know how to end right now. Or, at all.
** And once it finally did end in early 2015, it was a looong time coming.

** This troper always interpreted the moral as either being, "There are different kinds of 'ladies' than the prim and proper in ballgowns kind" or "BeYourself, but have some situational awareness." Then again, the [[LostAesop moral does get fuzzy at times....]]
* HoYay: Mostly involving Yuki, specially in the episodes centered around him.

** Not to mention Kyohei clinging onto Takenaga in a very loving manner. He usually only does this when [[ClingyJealousGirl Noi]] is around, though.

* RuleOfCool/RuleOfFunny/RuleOfDrama: This series' bread and butter.

** I always interpreted the moral as either being, "There are different kinds of 'ladies' than the prim and proper in ballgowns kind" or "BeYourself, but have some situational awareness." Then again, I agree the [[LostAesop moral gets fuzzy at times....]]

* SeasonalRot[=/=]FranchiseZombie: It could have ended quite happily after the 12th volume, been forgiven by ending after the 15th/16th and at least redeemed by ending at a nice round 20. We're up to over a hundred chapters and 29 volumes with no end in sight, and by this point even the ''scanslators'' have given up.

* AccidentalNightmareFuel: Sunako is this to most people.

* {{Large Ham}}: The Landlady. There's shades of it in Sunako, too.
