3	''Life of Maid'' (''Maid-san No Hibi'') is a ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' SliceOfLife [[{{Yonkoma}} 4koma]] series from a {{doujinshi}} artist by the name of colonel_aki. This series stars the cast of the Scarlet Devil Mansion and their friends in the MagicalLand of Gensokyo. For the most part, "speech" is expressed through images (while many strips are completely silent), with only a few background signs, and the humor is character- rather than pun-based, making the series "translate" well.

6
7	----
8	!!The daily lives of the Scarlet Devil Mansion residence features examples of:
9	* AbnormalAmmo / TorpedoTits: Kind of. [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=236415&pool_id=81 Flandre slaps Sakuya on the back]] and...well...
10	* ACupAngst: Sakuya keeps trying to get a bigger chest using pads. (Mention this, and she'll hurt you.)
11	* AdoptTheFood: Yuyuko's cow was originally purchased to be butchered for a meal, but she decided to keep her as a pet and source of milk instead due to the fact that she was too adorable to kill.
12	* AnimalWrongsGroup: Yuuka is a one-woman ''Plant'' Wrongs Group.
13	* ArtEvolution: colonel_aki's artistic skill has been improving as the series goes on, including in his works outside of ''Life of Maid''.
14	* ArtShift: A little bit during ''Life of Maid'' [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=203654&pool_id=81 #11]] and #27.
15	** And when [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=177408&pool_id=81 Patchy loses her DS]].
16	** Again in [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=361864&pool_id=81 a strip with Kogasa]].
17	** Then with [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=494657&pool_id=81 Race Queen Marisa]].
18	** Once again [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1420350 after Patchy's makeover from Koakuma]].
19	* AssShove: When Patchy gets sick in strip #15, Eirin prescribes a spring onion up the rear as treatment (a real folk remedy that people used to use in Japan). [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Patchy doesn't take it well.]]
20	* BaitAndSwitch: One strip has Sakuya going back to the SDM at night, walking through a dimly lit back alley. A shadowy figure creeps closer, and Sakuya looks back with a creepy anxious face... and it turns out to be just [[{{Karakasa}} Kogasa]] trying to [[SillySpook surprise Sakuya]].
21	* BadassBiker: ZigZagged. Upon seeing a motorbike, Meiling [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=730472&pool_id=81 imagines herself]] as one, though [[DrivesLikeCrazy her reputation with vehicles is not the best in the world]]. She tries to ride it, and sure enough, she crashes into Nitori's lab. However, Nitori then fixes it up, and soon Meiling is driving it like a real off-road[[labelnote:*]]or rather, ''on-sea''[[/labelnote]] champion. Two weeks after the fact, however, she finds herself washed up on a remote island, eventually to be found by fishermen.
22	* BeachEpisode: Which is strange, since there are no oceans in Gensokyo.
23	* BerserkButton: Never, ''ever'' [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=583146&pool_id=81 defile Meiling's ramen]]. [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=593828&pool_id=81 It will not end well for you.]]
24	** Never mention Sakuya's pads if you don't want to end up knifed.
25	** If you live with Reimu, [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=87172&pool_id=81 never play for the other team]].
26	** Because it cannot be stressed strongly enough, ''[[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=901142 do not mess with Yuuka's sunflowers]]!''
27	*** Sakuya makes this mistake when she visits Yuuka's flower shop. End result: she walks away the proud owner of a new pot of sunflowers.
28	* BewareTheNiceOnes: [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=135969&pool_id=81 Keine]], who keeps a portable moon to were-ify herself and bring her wrath down on bad students.
29	* BigEater: Yuyuko in spades.
30	* ButtMonkey: Meiling happens to be the butt of most of the jokes, mostly involving Sakuya's knives.
31	** Rinnosuke, the unluckiest shopkeeper and food stand owner ever, the latter mostly because of the involvement of [[BigEater Yuyuko]].
32	*** When he was [[SantaClaus Santa]] and [[ItMakesSenseInContext lost his coat]], he was unfortunate enough to be caught by Youmu as he was [[NotWhatItLooksLike standing over Yuyuko in his loincloth]]. Also, he's received Flandre's chocolates.
33	** Patchy also gets the short end of the ButtMonkey stick a lot of the time. Virtually every time she goes out of the mansion (voluntarily or not), it ends in some kind of pain for her.
34	%%* CoolOldGuy: Youki Konpaku.
35	* CurbStompBattle: What Meiling wanted to be an [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=182040&pool_id=81 SDM vs. Eientei]] volleyball match ends up as one in which Sakuya teams up with Eirin instead.
36	** Happens to Meiling when she unknowingly fights against Patchouli in Gensokyou Fighter IV, with Patchy getting a FlawlessVictory, no less.
37	* DeepImmersionGaming: Gensokyou Fighter IV. Crosses over with BlandNameProduct.
38	* DefeatMeansFriendship: Meiling and Shou. They meet, they fight over one last piece of item remaining on the shelf, they get Master Spark'd by Marisa, they settle things in the arcade, and after defeating each other one time each, they're playing Strawberry of the Dead on Co-op mode and [[OhCrap brace themselves together for the incoming rage of their bosses for blowing their shopping money on the arcade]].
39	* DistractedByMyOwnSexy: Happens to Sakuya [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=194917 when she gets her new bra pads]]... [[http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=3228564 for 8 HOURS]].
40	* DopeSlap: Or rather Dope Punch when [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=617696&pool_id=81 Patchouli tries to take the lazy way out of cleaning the mansion]] to earn her [[UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS 3DS]].
41	* DraggedByTheCollar: How Sakuya and Eirin solve their problems with [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=137538&pool_id=81 Patchouli]] and [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=186903&pool_id=81 Kaguya]].
42	* DreamSequence: [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=157192&pool_id=81 Youmu has one]] where [[SheIsAllGrownUp Yuyuko is all grown up]].
43	** Yuyuko also has one with her [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=336189&pool_id=81 Cow]].
44	* DrivesLikeCrazy: Ah, [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=240082&pool_id=81 Meiling]], [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=239122&pool_id=81 Meiling]], [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=237891&pool_id=81 Meiling]]...
45	** Implied with Shou. When playing a match of the same driving game Meiling flunked earlier, she ''loses'' to Meiling.
46	* EverythingsBetterWithSparkles: As Yuyuko shows us in strip #53.
47	** Then there is the sparkle battle between [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=163854&pool_id=81 Yuyuko and the cow]].
48	* ExtremeOmnivore: Yuyuko. If it contains (or should contain) or looks like food, she will (try to) eat it. Including, but not limited to: [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=646801 Patchouli's console while it shows a picture of meat]], [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=440721 a fridge (literally)]] or [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=520652&pool_id=81 signs]] (result of the last [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=526439 here]]).
49	* FanService:
50	** [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=137538&pool_id=81 Patchy dressing/undressing.]] "[[Manga/SayonaraZetsubouSensei Don't open it!]]"
51	** [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=494657&pool_id=81 Race Queen Marisa.]]
52	** Strip #26 and #27 above, with Sakuya in her own little world.
53	** Adult Patchouli wearing a school swimsuit in ''Life of Maid-chan''.
54	** Adult Yuyuko wearing just a towel in ''Life of Maid-chan''. Unlike her normal "Life of Maid" appearance, "little" no longer describes her.
55	** Patchouli getting Remilia to [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1549818 cosplay as]] [[VideoGame/KanColle Shimakaze]] for Comiket.
56	* FiveFingerDiscount: Marisa indulges in a spot of [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=655140&pool_id=81 shoplifting]] from Rinnosuke's shop, unaware that Sakuya has just applied for a part-time job there and is [[TimeStandsStill more than capable]] of getting his goods back from her.
57	* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Scarlet sisters. Flandre is the foolish, Remilia the responsible.
58	* FrightInducedBunkmate: The 100th strip has Remilia and Flandre going to sleep with Sakuya after getting spooked by a [[{{Irony}} Dracula movie]].
59	* GivingThemTheStrip: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FGrepVxC-Q Santa Rinnosuke]] tries this in an attempt to escape from Marisa. It works, but also leads to an ''extremely'' unfortunate NotWhatItLooksLike moment when Youmu walks in on him standing over a sleeping Yuyuko in his underwear while breathing hard...
60	* HeavySleeper: Meiling can usually be found sleeping at the front gate, but only seems to be able to sleep sitting up. This is so ingrained that her body seems to have [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=202833&pool_id=81 memorized the position]]. At least until [[GravityIsAHarshMistress gravity]] [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=202834&pool_id=81 kicks in]].
61	** Yukari is [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=161367&pool_id=81 introduced as one as well]].
62	* {{Hikikomori}}: Patchouli and Kaguya are portrayed as such.
63	* HilarityEnsues: In the next panel and/or comic strip.
64	* IKnowMortalKombat: A likely DoubleSubversion. Meiling's [[DrivesLikeCrazy driving skills]] are put to the test in a video game parody of ''Manga/InitialD''. She does just as well as she does in real-life.
65	* ImagineSpot: A cold-addled Youmu has one where she thinks Yuyuko's moe-cow became a cow-youkai.
66	* InNameOnly: This version of Gensokyo is basically modern Japan with youkai. [[TropesAreTools This does, however, allow for a lot more variety in storylines and humor.]]
67	* KarmaHoudini: Tewi has so far gotten away with breaking Nitori's Robo-Marisa that ended up messing with Patchouli and Alice and...[[DudeNotFunny bursting Patchouli's sea tube.]]
68	* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Tewi's expires when she locks Remilia and Yuyuko in a shed. After seeing them in a [[InnocentInnuendo "compromising" position]], she opens the door... at which point Remilia unleashes a hungry Yuyuko on her.
69	* KissOfLife: [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=183848&pool_id=81 Hoped]] for by Patchouli from Marisa...
70	* LethalChef: Flandre in terms of making chocolate. Sakuya offers to help on Valentine's Day 2013, but ends up being shocked by her appalling cooking skills—and more so when the chocolate actually turns out ''decent'' that time!
71	* LoveTriangle: Alice, Patchy and Marisa. Which promptly gets subverted [[spoiler:when Marisa picks Reimu instead]].
72	* LoveMakesYouCrazy: Or at least blind; Patchy and Alice are easily swayed by a [[RobotMe robotic version of Marisa]] that Nitori made for a simple prank.
73	* MarshmallowHell: Yuugi tries to comfort a lost and terrified Flandre, [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=790793&pool_id=81 but]]...
74	* MesACrowd: Rinnosuke pretty much shows up in EVERY [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=71849&pool_id=81 shop]].
75	** Even in London, during a seminar for [[{{Meido}} maids]], ''[[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=436235&pool_id=81 he's freaking there]]''. [[LampshadeHanging Sakuya finally notices his omnipresence.]]
76	* {{Meido}}: Sakuya. In the "World Maid" arc, [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=375775&pool_id=81 Meiling replaces Sakuya]] as the Maid Chief and Youmu go to the titular, ShoutOut-filled seminar. Meiling starts by destroying the place.
77	** After that, it's [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=440721&pool_id=81 Flandre's turn]] to be head maid. At least she ''is'' assured to destroy the place.
78	** And after Remilia's rage clean, [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=450896&pool_id=81 everyone dresses as a maid]]!
79	* {{Miko}}: After [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=711758&pool_id=81 accidentally spilling some desserts]] onto Sakuya and Youmu's clothes, Reimu gets them to wear fresh miko clothes to invoke this trope (and get some extra help at the shrine as well).
80	** Some time later, Reimu enmikoes Flandre. The result is... [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=767730&pool_id=81 overwhelming]].
81	* MundaneMadeAwesome: Youki Konpaku as...SANTA CLAUS.
82	** Tenshi shows us how goalkeeping is done right in strip #255.
83	* MundaneUtility: Youki Konpaku uses his swords skills to...[[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=93005&pool_id=81 cut fish]]. Overlaps with MundaneMadeAwesome.
84	** Satori uses her mind-reading skills to give her the edge in ping pong against Flandre.
85	** And Sakuya's [[TimeStandsStill time-stopping ability]] proves quite useful in [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=655140&pool_id=81 stopping shoplifters]].
86	*** And [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=658409&pool_id=81 stopping gluttons]].
87	* NewJobAsThePlotDemands: Youki Konpaku repeatedly shows up working various different jobs, apparently to foot [[BigEater Yuyuko's food bill]]. To date he has been: a construction worker, a pizza delivery man, a cashier, a ski lodge attendant, an actor (stage, television, and video game), a MallSanta, a ''real'' Santa, and a soul collector working under Eiki Shiki (where he outperforms both [[{{Shinigami}} Komachi]] and [[OurDemonsAreDifferent Koakuma]]).
88	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Nitori creates a robotic clone of Marisa to fool around with Patchy's emotions, which works very well. However, Tewi, befitting her troublesome nature, steals the control device in a fit of mischief. In fighting for the controls, they cause Robo-Marisa to flail wildly and eventually break its head off, much to Patchy and Alice's horror. Tewi (and Suwako, who was also involved), [[KarmaHoudini of course]], [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere runs away]] before Patchy and Alice find out who caused this whole mess.
89	* OhCrap: Patchy's expression when she realizes [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=549463&pool_id=81 she left her yaoi under her bed when Sakuya was cleaning her room]].
90	** Shou and Meiling when they realize they spent their shopping money on the arcade...[[FromBadToWorse right as Sakuya and Byakuren are coming towards them.]]
91	* OriginalCharacter: One. A cow.
92	* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Remilia and Flandre turn out to be [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=147515&pool_id=81 really scared of Dracula movies]].
93	** Also, sunlight has no effect on them whatsoever.
94	* {{Pixellation}}: Meiling and Reisen as a result of the volleyball match.
95	** As well as Patchy's weight after eating every other strip when Meiling stole her lunch on Patchouli's first day back to school.
96	** Once more with Flandre's LethalChef chocolate-making skills.
97	* PowerTrio: Flandre, Suika, and Cirno. Sometimes a TerribleTrio also.
98	* RedEyesTakeWarning: Sakuya, when she is pissed off. Occasionally overlaps with GlowingEyesOfDoom.
99	** Same with Reimu, when she found her moocher buying drinks from the other miko team.
100	* RobotMe: Nitori makes a Robo-Marisa to screw around with Patchy's emotions. [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=700743&pool_id=81 Marisa herself]] is surprised to discover her robotic clone after its head falls off.
101	* TheRunaway: The arc starting with #262 has Flandre running away from the mansion after she and Remilia get into a fight over the television[[note]]Remi wants to watch the news, Flan wants to watch ''[[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Madoka Magica]]''[[/note]], but ends up getting lost. In the end there's a tearful reunion thanks to Yugi.
102	* {{Running Gag}}s:
103	** Sakuya's [[ACupAngst breast envy]] and her handy uses for time-stopping. She also tends to get caught up on things to the point she forgets about everything else, including feeding the rest of the SDM inhabitants.
104	** Meiling's crazy driving, her sleeping, and her being the recipient of Sakuya's most frequent wrath.
105	** Yuyuko's habit of cleaning out every food shop Rinnosuke owns and eating anything that even remotely looks like food.
106	** Rinnosuke running a random shop that pops up in a given strip. Lampshaded by Sakuya at a few points.
107	** Patchy's crush on Marisa, her endless quest for a DS only for a tragedy to befall said DS, her yaoi, and her hikikomori lifestyle in general.
108	** Reimu's ever-empty donation box and her competition with the Moriya Shrine.
109	** Marisa's habit of stealing things.
110	** Keine's portable moon and her CAVING tendencies.
111	** Mokou playing with old-school toys and games, mostly because Keine can't afford to give her as much as Kaguya and Patchy are able to buy.
112	** Youki Konpaku working odd jobs all over the place.
113	** ...and possibly more.
114	* SchoolSwimsuit: Patchouli attempts to get the others to wear them, to no avail.
115	--> '''Patchouli:''' "Weird... This school is weird!"
116	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Suwako and Tewi after the whole Robo-Marisa scheme falls apart.
117	** Sakuya, when she realises she doesn't have enough money to pay for Meiling's ice cream at Letty's ice cream shop. She does it again when, while attempting to breakdance, she accidentally sprays the crowd with knives.
118	* SerialEscalation: How lazy can [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=190609&pool_id=81 Meiling]] get?
119	** As well as [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=189843&pool_id=81 Yuyuko's]] eating habits...
120	*** Behold, the [[http://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/1615387 Yuyuko of Liberty]].
121	* SexySantaDress: The third [[ChristmasEpisode Christmas Special]] features, Reimu, Sakuya, Yukari and Eirin [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=743936&pool_id=81 each wearing one]] when they team up to deliver the year's Christmas presents to Gensokyo's residents. Reimu and Sakuya's are at least warmer-looking than Eirin and Yukari's.
122	* ShoutOut: Arguably on a par with ''Manga/LuckyStar'', as this has shout-outs and references to various anime and video games.
123	** Here's one for [[VideoGame/MonsterHunter Monster]] [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=245643&pool_id=81 Hunter]].
124	** ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' gets [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=231193&pool_id=81 one]] too.
125	** ''Manga/HaruhiChan'' with the "DA-ME" (NO) sign in strip #54.
126	** [[Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya Endless Eight]] (strip #101).
127	** [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=149870&pool_id=81 Meiling]] tries to sneak past Sakuya in a [[VideoGame/MetalGear cardboard box]]...
128	** [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=137538&pool_id=81 Patchy refuses to go to school]] and is willing to fight using a [[Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha very familiar wand]]...
129	** Here's a game! [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=431414&pool_id=81 Count the maid references]]!
130	** [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=447617&pool_id=81 Remilia]], [[Manga/TomorrowsJoe dead in the ring]].
131	** [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=566260&pool_id=81 Patchy makes a chocolate of herself for Marisa]], only for a [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica traumatic scene]] to be reenacted.
132	** Remilia is dogpiled in her sleep and has dreams of [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure being crushed by a steamroller]]. "[[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=174484&pool_id=81 WRYYYYYYYYYYYY!]]"
133	** [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=761251&pool_id=81 When running away]], Flandre wears a [[Literature/{{Bakemonogatari}} familiar backpack]].
134	** As mentioned above, the arcade in Gensokyo has [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIV Gensokyou Fighter IV]], with ''Touhou'' counterparts of the ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' characters, no less. There's Reimu as Ryu (as seen on the cabinet), Meimei (Meiling) as Chun-li, Pachii (Patchouli) as Cammy White, and [[StealthPun Blaka]] (Cirno) as Blanka. The odd one out is the Sakuya version of [[VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters Oswald]].
135	** In the same arc above, Meiling as [[Manga/InitialD Initial M]].
136	** It's not a good idea to [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=455397&pool_id=81 slack off in Keine's music class]]. She doesn't just transform, she gets possessed by the spirit of METAL—much like [[Manga/KOn a certain teacher from a rather popular recent anime]].
137	** Meiling's usual facial expression is a reference to Konata Izumi from ''Lucky Star''.
138	** [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=942587 One of the more recent arcs]] has Patchy playing "[[Literature/SwordArtOnline Staff Art Online]]" with Kaguya and Mokou for hours on end, resulting in a severe case of bloodshot eyes.
139	** When Meiling crashes a broken kart in an amusement park, [[VideoGame/ElShaddaiAscensionOfTheMetatron the world]] [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=494652&pool_id=81 thinks it wasn't her time]].
140	** When Remilia finds Meiling on the news, Flandre shows up to change the channel to her favorite [[BlatantLies happy]] and [[GenreDeconstruction cheery]] [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica magical girl anime]].
141	** #354 has Meiling and Shou competing against each other in ''Strawberry of the Dead'', both a BlandNameProduct-version of ''VideoGame/HouseOfTheDead'' and one of colonel_aki's other doujinshis.
142	* SpinOffBabies: Kind of. ''[[http://danbooru.donmai.us/pool/show/1571 Life of Maid-chan]]'' is a spin-off that reverses everyone's ages.
143	* SuperDeformed: Around half the cast are portrayed as children.
144	* TearJerker: Played for laughs InUniverse with Yuuka's [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=121372 story involving her sunflowers]].
145	* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Meiling's and Reisen's reaction to Sakuya and Eirin teaming up in the volleyball match.
146	** Nitori when she faces Patchouli's and Alice's wrath after the Robo-Marisa stunt.
147	* ThrowTheDogABone: [[http://hijiribe.donmai.us/posts/2077174 The recent convention arc]] (continues for about 4 more pages) is a case for Patchy, as she leaves the house and everything goes fine for once.
148	* TimeStandsStill: When Sakuya is involved, it tends to happen. [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure ZA WARUDO!]]
149	* TrashOfTheTitans: Patchouli's room is nightmarishly messy. She also spontaneously ''generates'' trash when forced out of her room.
150	* {{Tsundere}}: Sakuya is apparently one of these towards Meiling.
151	* WaddlingHead: Yukkuris are pets, and very expensive ones, at that.
152	* WorkOffTheDebt: [[http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=114621&pool_id=81 Poor Meiling.]]
