Line #93 Tropers/Lebrel


1	Rummaging around for tropes not on the sandbox page that are candidates for JapaneseTropes (aside from the UsefulNotes ones):
2	* VisualKei - often crops up as a trope (musicians or wannabe musicians or just aping the style)
3	* BifauxnenAndLadette
4
5	Listed on AnimeSettings (which is apparently ''common'' settings, not ''anime-specific'' settings):
6	* ElevatorSchool
7	* TokyoIsTheCenterOfTheUniverse
8	* TokyoTower
9
10	And potentially some of the tropes on AnimeHair:
11	* IdiotHair
12	* PrincessCurls
13	----
14	Took a look at the {{UsefulNotes.Japan}} page; there's a whole bunch of different kinds of pages.
15
16	There's historical/background information about people/ places/events in Japan (marked UN according to my impression)
17
18	There's "notes about Japanese culture that would be matter-of-fact in Japan but causes foreigners to go ''huh?''" (marked "trivia" according to my impression).
19
20	There's stuff that is used in Japan as a trope, particularly Japanese cultural stuff that gets exaggerated or portrayed inaccurately in fiction for plot purposes or to make it more interesting (marked "trope" according to my impression)
21
22	And a lot of them overlap.
23
24	I'd suggest moving the ones that are clearly tropes onto index pages like JapaneseTropes or StockJapaneseCharacters, etc, and linking the UN/Japan page to the indexes as SeeAlso; that would clean things up immensely. There might also be value in a "famous Japanese people" index.
