* AlmostKiss: [[spoiler:Kaito almost kisses Ichika before being interrupted by Kanna]]
* AlwaysInClassOne
* AllJustADream: Subverted on several occasions.
* BarbieDollAnatomy: Perhaps the most bizarre subversion on film: Chiharu's cartoon camel toe!
* BeachEpisode: Episode 6
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Rinon seems scared of Ichika after the latter accidentally drops a knife in front of it. She also later calls Rinon to help teleport her to [[DatePeepers spy]] on Kaito when he's hanging out with Manami, and threatens to do something if Rinon doesn't comply.
* BlandNameProduct: "Fusika" = Fujica. Kaito has a [[http://www.super8data.com/database/cameras_list/cameras_fuji/fujica_p300.htm P300]] and Remon a [[http://www.super8data.com/database/cameras_list/cameras_fuji/fujica_zc_1000.htm ZC1000]].
* BlankWhiteEyes: Rinon when Ichika calls for it so she can tail Kaito and Manami.
* CannotSpitItOut: Kaito seemed like he was going to in episode 2, but Ichika stops him. Then it just gets kind of awkward as [[OneDialogueTwoConversations both are thinking different things altogether,]] and attempt to clarify it later. Manami later gets a bit flustered when she realizes both of them utilizing this trope.
** Seems to apply to Kanna as well towards Kaito. [[spoiler: Then Tetsuro at the end of episode 5 straight up tells Kaito that she likes him.]]
** Meanwhile, on the other side of the love polygon, [[spoiler: Mio finally spits it out once Tetsuro gives her a lecture about hiding her feelings from the group.]]
** [[spoiler: Averted as of episode 9, when Kaito finally confesses, and he and Ichika [[OfficialKiss finally share the first kiss they're both conscious for]], followed by a second after Ichika finishes listing off all the kisses Kaito [[IntimateHealing hadn't been conscious for.]]]]
** [[spoiler: Averted twice as of Episode 10, since everybody has confessed.]]
* CatSmile: Rinon's default expression.
* ChildhoodFriends: Tetsuro and Kanna. Kaito and Kaori.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Of the Unlucky kind:
** Tetsurou, towards Kanna.
** Kaori to Kaito
* ChildhoodMarriagePromise: Kaito had one with Kaori. He wasn't serious about it. [[spoiler: She was, however.]]
** [[spoiler: Sorta. In episode 7, she confides to Ichika that she was dumped by her boyfriend and was on the trip just to get over him, and was mostly on the rebound with Kaito.]]
* ClingyJealousGirl: Kanna towards Kaito, especially when she hears about Ichika living with him.
** Ichika gets quite jealous when she sees Kaito with Manami, [[spoiler:Tetsuro's sister]] in episode 4. Manami decides to tease them a little bit afterwards once Ichika shows up in the apartment.
** Both girls decide to question Kaito together in episode 6 after Kaori shows up claiming to be his fiance. Even Rinon seems a bit uncomfortable around the two women in that scene.
** In episode 5, Tetsuro tries to help Kanna get closer to Kaito. Kanna responds by saying that he'll find someone too, but he mentions to himself that it won't happen. Mio, overhearing this, and massaging Remon's shoulders at the time, suddenly presses a bit too hard after hearing him saying that.
** Mio managed a MegatonPunch to knock off Chiharu who tried to force herself on Tetsuro.
* CompulsorySchoolAge: Because the first thing a teenage HumanAlien that crashes on our primitive world would do is enroll in HighSchool. Implicitly justified by her obligation to keep an eye on Kaito while her nanotechnology is healing him.
* CoolBigSis: Nanami, though Tetsuro's sister Manami is a subversion.
** [[spoiler: Ichika]]'s older sister Emika counts as this when she shows up in the [[spoiler: eleventh episode]], as she ends up trying to [[spoiler: help Ichika and Kaito find a loophole in the alien's law that will allow them to remain together]].
* CordonBleughChef: Ichika. Grapefruit rice or ''Chocolate Curry'', anyone?
* CovertPervert: Kaito
* CrazyPrepared: How exactly did Remon-sempai get her hands on an 8mm camera, various viewfinders or the Dynamite Drink; and how did she know she would need them anyway?
** Even further, how'd she guess that a van [[spoiler:that's secretly a robot]] would be useful at the very moment they needed it?
* CryCute: Pretty much any of the girls when they turn on the waterworks.
* CypherLanguage: Lots of [[http://blog.neozeed.net/ano-natsu-de-matteru-cypher-i-love-this-serie alien script]], such as in [[http://yggdrasilradio.net/shampoo2.jpg this example]]. It's a substitution code for the English alphabet.
* DatePeepers: Remon, Tetsuro, and Mio all follow Kaito and Kanna around in episode 3. Ichika follows them as well, but doesn't quite catch up to them and instead runs into Kaito later.
** Ichika does it again when Manami forces Kaito to go shopping with her in episode 4.
* DeadpanSnarker: Remon oh so much. In her defense, she says just about everything deadpan, but then, every time she opens her mouth snark comes out.
* DidIJustSayThatOutLoud: Kaito does this during his ImagineSpot when he [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments realizes the Spot was not the least bit imaginary]]. [[spoiler:This gets him his InnocentCohabitation with Ichika.]]
* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: Episode 6 has a scene where a girl tries to force herself on Tetsurou. It's entirely PlayedForLaughs. She chases him around again in episode 7.
* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: Both Kanna and Ichika display this in episode 6 when Kaori, Kaito's childhood friend, who also claims to be his fiancee, shows up. It freaks him out when he sees their looks.
* EvilLaugh: Remon's delightful "Ufufufufu..."
* {{Expy}}: Yamano Remon is very evocative of [[Anime/PleaseTeacher Ichigo Morino]], right down to her signature EvilLaugh; except without the SoapOperaDisease. Fittingly, they have [[Creator/YukariTamura the same voice]].
** Ichika looks very obviously like teacher-mode [[Anime/PleaseTeacher Mizuho]].
** Kanna shares a very similar attitude, hairstyle, and hair colour to [[Manga/RanmaOneHalf Akane Tendou]].
* {{Fanservice}}: Downright subdued compared to other modern works, but still there.
* TheFederation: Inverted: we are the primitives who must be protected by their prime directive...[[spoiler: even if it means tearing the young lovers apart.]]
* FirstKiss: [[spoiler:Kaito and Ichika]] in episode 9. [[spoiler:Ichika]] counts it as her fourth as she's done mouth-to-mouth on him three times before for IntimateHealing. When he murmurs about how unromantic that is, she gives him a ShutUpKiss, which she counts as her fifth.
* FragileFlower: Nanami
* GargleBlaster: Yamano's Dynamite Drink (spiked lemonade). Which is apparently sold in cans.
* GenreSavvy: If Ichika were to tell Remon she was an alien, Remon's response would likely be [[SarcasmMode Well Duh.]] [[spoiler:Her actual response was "I suspected it."]]
** ''Everything'' Remon does as writer/director of the film too.
* GirlishPigtails: Remon.
* GoingCommando: Mio, mostly habitually and accidentally, due to her being raised as [[spoiler: a nudist]].
* GratuitousEnglish: Used Episode 3: "Men in Black!" and "My God!" Problems with her alien technology tends to provoke gratuitous "Engrish" exclamations from Ichika in general.
* HairDecorations: Mio and Ichika
* HandOrObjectUnderwear: Whenever we see Mio at home, she's nude with her naughty bits covered with a random stuffed animal (usually a giant panda).
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: A blink-and-you'll-miss-it shot in episode 6 has Manami passed out on Tetsuro's table with something like 10 empty cans of beer next to her. She's at it again at the end of episode 12.
* HereWeGoAgain: See TheStinger entry, below.
* HumanAliens: Well it's from the Onegai franchise, so what do you think?
* HeadPet: Rinon on episode 4.
* HumanAlien: Ichika
* IHaveThisFriend: Kaito and Ichika both talk about "Mr A" and "Ms B" with their friends. Of course they are [[BlatantLies purely fictitious]].
* ImagineSpot: Kaito, Ichika and Kanna get some based around the events of the previous night. Kaito lampshades this with, "Why am I having such unfortunate fantasies?"
** A reoccurring theme with Kaito. He also has a tendency to accidentally act out his side of them in real life, such as the time he prompted an "I don't swing that way" response from Tetsuro, [[spoiler: or when he accidentally invited Ichika to live with him.]]
* ImplausibleHairColor: {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d for Ichika; everyone stares at her strange crimson hair. Averted for everyone else, who have more subdued shades.
* IntimateHealing: Ichika does this to Kaito after he passes out at the end of episode 1. She gives him a kiss just as Kaito's sister and Kanna arrive home...
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Tetsuro in episode 3 seems to be heading this way with Kanna, but Mio, who likes him, calls him out on it, saying messing with others love life will come back to bite him. [[spoiler: He does it anyway.]]
** Kanna in episode 5 seems to be heading towards this trope, [[spoiler: until Tetsuro straight up tells Kaito at the end of the episode that she likes him. Played Straight in episode 9..]] She falls into this trope again in episode 9, although she's not very happy about it.
*** She invoked this trope's name almost word for word ''twice'' in episode 11.
** Similarly, Mio seemed like she was going this route [[spoiler: until Tetsuro points out that as her friends, she needs to trust them with her worries and feelings. She ''immediately'' confesses]].
** Kaori towards Kaito. [[spoiler: She tells Ichika she was on the rebound from getting dumped by another guy. But Kaori also warns Ichika that if she doesn't take him soon, she will.]]
* {{Kimodameshi}}: One happens in episode 8.
* LittleMissBadass: Remon scares the hell out of all her classmates and friends, despite her less than intimidating appearance.
* LoveAtFirstSight
* LoveDodecahedron: Mio likes Tetsurou who likes Kanna who likes Kaito who likes Ichika [[spoiler: who is a HumanAlien and wasn't even sure what was happening]].
** A major part of the character development is people finally getting up the courage to confess, or otherwise pull the strings of the dodecahedron--namely, Tetsurou [[spoiler: told Kaito that Kanna loves him]], and Mio [[spoiler: finally confessed to Tetsurou after he didn't react with disgust at finding out she's a nudist]].
* LoveEpiphany: Ichika showed signs of it in earlier episodes, but seems to finally come to terms with it in episode 7.
* LoverTugOfWar: Slight one happens to Tetsuro in episode 7.
* MagicalGirlfriend: Ichika.
* MaleGaze: Repeatedly, mostly due to Ichika not fully grasping the concept of human modesty.
* MarshmallowHell: Kaito receives one on the first episode, though he was unconscious at the time.
* {{Megane}}: Tetsurou and Kaito.
* {{Meganekko}}: Ichika and Nanami.
* TheMenInBlack: A RunningGag is Ichika being terrified of them.
** [[spoiler: When they do show up, they turn out to be TheCavalry showing up at the behest of their leader: '''Remon.''']]
* MomentKiller: Remon is a master.
** Kanna does this at the end of episode 7.
* MythologyGag: Kaito mentions to Ichika that his 8mm handheld camera belonged to his late grandfather. Those familiar with ''Anime/PleaseTeacher'' can surmise that he is referring to Kei.
** Remon's school uniform is the same as the female student cast's, minus Ichigo, in ''Anime/PleaseTeacher''. In fact, Ichigo's school uniform looks very much like the featured school's in this series ...
* NakedApron: Mio in Episode 10. Continuing Mio's deconstruction of NudityTropes, it's not for {{fanservice}}--it's just what [[spoiler: nudists]] wear while cooking, after all.
* NewTransferStudent: Ichika
* NoRomanticResolution: Not for the main couple, but Tetsuro still seems unattached at the end, although Mio doesn't seem to mind it.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: When Nanami and Kanna walk in on Ichika's IntimateHealing for an unconscious Kaito, the towel she was wearing begins to fall down. Ichika instinctly moves Kaito's head to cover it, giving off a worse impression to both girls, and causing Nanami to faint in the very next episode.
* OneDialogueTwoConversations: In episode 2, Kaito seems ready to say something to Ichika. However, she stops him before he can say it. Then in episode 3, they sort of realize they both had the wrong idea about the attempted conversation. Kaito thought Ichika was going to tell their friends how she rejected his attempted LoveConfession. Ichika, on the other hand, thought he figured out she was really an alien and was going to reveal it to them, and didn't want him to say anything about it, lest she gets taken away and therefore wouldn't be able to find the location she came to Earth for.
* PerpetualSmiler: Remon
* PromotionToParent: Nanami.
* ProperTightsWithASkirt: Remon in her school uniform.
* PurelyAestheticGlasses: Ichika's glasses are actually a head-up display interface for her alien hardware.
* RaceAgainstTheClock: The group needs to find the place Ichika mentioned earlier in the series before [[spoiler:rescue comes because there's possible evidence of FirstContact and if they could find it, it could get Earth upgraded from a Class F Planet (Protected by a AlienNonInterferenceClause) and so Ichika wouldn't have to be forcibly rescued again.]]
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: A [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy heartbroken]] Kanna gives a scathing one to Ichika in episode 9, because by this point she [[HopelessSuitor finally realizes beyond a doubt that Kaito likes Ichika]], and yet Ichika just keeps dodging the subject altogether with him. [[spoiler: A few moments later, Tetsuro tries to comfort her, which puts Mio in the same exact situation with Tetsuro, and she [[CryCute sobs quietly]] nearby.]]
* RefugeInAudacity: Remon constantly drops hints that she may be much [[OlderThanTheyLook older than she looks]].
* RelationshipUpgrade: [[spoiler: Ichika and Kaito in episode 9.]]
* TheRestShallPass: Throughout Episode 11 and 12, each of Kaito's friends stay behind to ensure the pursuing drones do not capture Ichika.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Rinon fits the criteria pretty well, despite being, for all intents and purposes so far, a robot.
* RomanticRunnerUp: Kanna towards Kaito, and Mio towards Tetsuro. Made more painful by the fact that Kaito was told Kanna likes him, and Mio outright confesses to Tetsuro, and they still end up rejecting the girls.
** Near the end of the eleventh episode, [[spoiler:Tetsuro]] asks [[spoiler: Mio]] out to a movie sometime, just the two of them. They happen to be [[spoiler: [[ChaseScene evading an alien robot/rescue pod/terminator while riding a small scooter]]]] at the time.
* RunningGag: Tetsuro always dies a few seconds after appearing on-screen in the movie they're filming. {{Lampshaded}} when Kaito asks him how many times he's died in the movie.
* ScaryShinyGlasses: Happens to Ichika when she strangles Rinon helping her follow Kaito around in episode 4, and again when Kaito finds her standing behind him while at Tetsuro's apartment with Manami later.
* SceneryPorn: The attention paid to the backgrounds can not be ignored.
* SecondYearProtagonist: Ichika
* SecretKeeper: All of the main cast promise not to reveal that Ichika is an alien, although they're not really shocked by it at all either when they first find out.
* SempaiKohai: Ichika and Lemon are always referred to as "sempai", which one would expect at a Japanese school. But things get interesting when ''Manami'' calls Lemon Sempai too.
* SequelHook: [[spoiler: Lemon studying Rinon, who is technically ''a spaceship.'' Then immediately averted, see TheStinger below.]]
* TheSeventies: though the actual time period is not specified, you'd be forgiven if you thought this series was set in the seventies. Manami's car, film cameras instead of video, (can one even get Super-8 film anymore?) the dial phones, the apparent lack of any computers or cell phones, and the complete lack of all non-alien high tech all appear to place this work in the late seventies or early eighties at the latest, an impression reinforced by Ichika's and Kaito's "back then" past-tense narration. Only Tetsuro's caller ID phone seems remotely contemporary.
** If we assume that HighSchoolOfTheDead as show in the movie theater is the real-world show, that would make 2010 the earliest possible timeframe.
** The {{Bland Name|Product}} {{Magic|TheGathering}} game being played in one episode would point to no earlier than the [[TheNineties mid-nineties]].
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Deconstructed with Mio. She's a modest ShrinkingViolet who was raised as a nudist, and tries to hide this fact from others due to her feeling that this makes her a weirdo. Some of her beliefs still leak out, however--she has a tendency to forget about panties, she can't sleep unless she's nude (even in a group), and her idea of a "modest bathing suit" was a bikini more daring than even [[MsFanservice Ichika's]] (which she hid with a hoodie).
** "Mio is a nudist" was a popular fan theory given how frequently she was shown casually nude at home in previous episodes, until she outright confirmed it in episode 7 in response to Tetsurou's stalker calling her an exhibitionist.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Both Kaito and Ichika deny this when Manami asks about it. She then {{t|heTease}}eases them both a little bit about it, but gets flustered at how [[CannotSpitItOut dense both of them are about their feelings]].
* ShipperOnDeck: Kanna attempts to do this in episode 5 when Remon suggests that Tetsuro and Ichika be the main actors. It backfires horribly on her though, as he gets himself "killed" twice in the film (the second time claiming to be the brother of the first guy who "died"), and Kaito is forced to take part in playing the new male lead.
* ShoutOut: Someone in the Episode 3 preview says [[Anime/PleaseTeacher "This is a top priority!"]]
** Kaito and the teacher were watching HighSchoolOfTheDead in the theatre.
** The region of Japan that [=AnoNatsu=] is set in is [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitakami,_Iwate Iwate Kitakami]], though shown from different angles the school that the cast goes to and some of the surrounding areas match the same locations used in {{Escaflowne}} (the scenes set on Earth anyway) almost exactly.
** Generally when ever aliens comes up, [[LampshadeHanging which is a lot]] [[GenreSavvy for some reason]], visual and audio allusions to Film/MenInBlack will happen as well.
* ShrinkingViolet: Mio. Yes, the ShamelessFanserviceGirl is also a ShrinkingViolet, leading to some very odd trope mixups.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is it Remon or Lemon?
* StalkerWithACrush: Kaori's friend, who comes on ''way'' too strong to Tetsuro, culminating in what amounted to a ''near rape.''
* StealthHiBye: Remon is a master of this.
** [[spoiler: Considering her status with the Men in Black, she may actually be using some sort of teleporter.]]
* TheStinger: A blink and you'll miss it one in episode 7. [[spoiler: There is another ship en route to Earth.]]
** A second one after the credits of episode 10. [[spoiler: Ichika's sister comes to rescue her.]]
** A third one at the end of 12. [[spoiler: The movie is being watched many years later, and has one more scene: Ichika is seen wearing the outfit Kaito's sister bought her, and she mentions that [[HereWeGoAgain her ship broke down again]].]]
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Both Kaito & Ichika use a "Boy A/Girl B" analogy to describe their problems to Tetsuro & Remon. Not long after, Tetsuro & Remon themselves both call Kanna "C".
* TheTease: Manami in episode 4 does a smirk on her face and starts teasing Kaito and especially Ichika when she realizes that Ichika showed up in the apartment and was trying to drag him out of there.
* ThrowItIn: In-universe example. When Kaito and his friends start filming in episode 5, Remon has a basic idea of what to film, then has the actors ad-lib lines and improvise. Tetsuro uses this opportunity to jump into the frame claiming to be part of the Men In Black, and promptly gets "shot" by Ichika's gun. He does it again in a later scene, this time claiming to be the first guy's brother, and once again gets "shot", this time by Rinon. Later they add a Kaiju, a Kaiju-sized super sentai (Tetsuro again) and the model airplane Tetsuro was shown building earlier. Lampshaded when Kaito asks him "Do we even know what this film is about anymore?"
** Remon later uses Kaori in the film as well in episode 6 when she shows up. Both [[ClingyJealousGirl Kanna and Ichika]] are not pleased about that.
* TwoScenesOneDialogue: combined with IHaveThisFriend.
* {{Tsundere}}: Kanna mostly, Ichika falls into this trope a couple of times early on.
* UndeadTaxExemption: Ichika's unique quirkiness in cooking, unfamiliarity with Japanese society/culture, and different hair color is attributed to her being a ForeignExchangeStudent. (and without documents, how did she get into school in the first place?) Rinon also largely gets {{Hand Wave}}d as a result of this trope as well.
** [[spoiler: It turns out this is a result of Lemon using her [[TheMenInBlack Men in Black]] connections to help out.]]
* UnmovingPlaid: Kaito's duvet.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: Ultimately, Kanna for Kaito, Tetsurou for Kanna, and Mio for Tetsurou. Although the series ends with everyone aware of the other's feelings.
* TheUnReveal: No one seems surprised at all by the fact that Ichika is an alien by the time she reveals it in episode 9.
* TheUnseen: Tetsuro's brother in law. [[spoiler: Turns out he's a squad leader in TheMenInBlack.]]
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Crimson Red Hair]]: Ichika. Justified as she's a HumanAlien. Subverted as ''everyone'' thinks it's unusual.
** This is despite the fact that everyone has a unusual hair color, but apparently crimson red is just too weird.
* WeNeedADistraction: [[spoiler: Tetsurou, Mio and Kanna distract the rescue robot for Kaito and Ichika to reach the lake in Episode 11.]]
* WhamLine: [[spoiler:"She loves you. Tanigawa Kanna... loves... Kirishima Kaito."]]
** False Wham Line: [[spoiler:It never gets dealt with.]]
* WingdingEyes: Arisawa has hearts in her eyes when trying to jump Tetsurou.
* {{Wingdinglish}}: The alien script's words mirror English-language words.
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Remon. [[spoiler:[[WildMassGuessing Of course, that's assuming she really is Yamano Remon, 17 years old and not Morino Ichigo, 30+ years old.]]]]
* ZettaiRyouiki: Mio.

* {{Expy}}: Yamano Remon is very evocative of [[Anime/PleaseTeacher Ichigo Morino]], right down to her signature EvilLaugh; except without the SoapOperaDisease. Fittingly, they have [[Creator/YukariTamura the same voice]].
** Ichika looks very obviously like teacher-mode [[Anime/PleaseTeacher Mizuho]].
** Kanna shares a very similar attitude, hairstyle, and hair colour to [[Manga/RanmaOneHalf Akane Tendou]].
* {{Fanservice}}: Downright subdued compared to other modern works, but still there.
* TheFederation: Inverted: we are the primitives who must be protected by their prime directive...[[spoiler: even if it means tearing the young lovers apart.]]
* FirstKiss: [[spoiler:Kaito and Ichika]] in episode 9. [[spoiler:Ichika]] counts it as her fourth as she's done mouth-to-mouth on him three times before for IntimateHealing. When he murmurs about how unromantic that is, she gives him a ShutUpKiss, which she counts as her fifth.
* FragileFlower: Nanami
* GargleBlaster: Yamano's Dynamite Drink (spiked lemonade). Which is apparently sold in cans.
* GenreSavvy: If Ichika were to tell Remon she was an alien, Remon's response would likely be [[SarcasmMode Well Duh.]] [[spoiler:Her actual response was "I suspected it."]]
** ''Everything'' Remon does as writer/director of the film too.
* GirlishPigtails: Remon.
* GoingCommando: Mio, mostly habitually and accidentally, due to her being raised as [[spoiler: a nudist]].
* GratuitousEnglish: Used Episode 3: "Men in Black!" and "My God!" Problems with her alien technology tends to provoke gratuitous "Engrish" exclamations from Ichika in general.
* HairDecorations: Mio and Ichika
* HandOrObjectUnderwear: Whenever we see Mio at home, she's nude with her naughty bits covered with a random stuffed animal (usually a giant panda).
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: A blink-and-you'll-miss-it shot in episode 6 has Manami passed out on Tetsuro's table with something like 10 empty cans of beer next to her. She's at it again at the end of episode 12.
* HereWeGoAgain: See TheStinger entry, below.
* HumanAliens: Well it's from the Onegai franchise, so what do you think?
* HeadPet: Rinon on episode 4.
* HumanAlien: Ichika
* IHaveThisFriend: Kaito and Ichika both talk about "Mr A" and "Ms B" with their friends. Of course they are [[BlatantLies purely fictitious]].
* ImagineSpot: Kaito, Ichika and Kanna get some based around the events of the previous night. Kaito lampshades this with, "Why am I having such unfortunate fantasies?"
** A reoccurring theme with Kaito. He also has a tendency to accidentally act out his side of them in real life, such as the time he prompted an "I don't swing that way" response from Tetsuro, [[spoiler: or when he accidentally invited Ichika to live with him.]]
* ImplausibleHairColor: {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d for Ichika; everyone stares at her strange crimson hair. Averted for everyone else, who have more subdued shades.
* IntimateHealing: Ichika does this to Kaito after he passes out at the end of episode 1. She gives him a kiss just as Kaito's sister and Kanna arrive home...
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Tetsuro in episode 3 seems to be heading this way with Kanna, but Mio, who likes him, calls him out on it, saying messing with others love life will come back to bite him. [[spoiler: He does it anyway.]]
** Kanna in episode 5 seems to be heading towards this trope, [[spoiler: until Tetsuro straight up tells Kaito at the end of the episode that she likes him. Played Straight in episode 9..]] She falls into this trope again in episode 9, although she's not very happy about it.
*** She invoked this trope's name almost word for word ''twice'' in episode 11.
** Similarly, Mio seemed like she was going this route [[spoiler: until Tetsuro points out that as her friends, she needs to trust them with her worries and feelings. She ''immediately'' confesses]].
** Kaori towards Kaito. [[spoiler: She tells Ichika she was on the rebound from getting dumped by another guy. But Kaori also warns Ichika that if she doesn't take him soon, she will.]]
* {{Kimodameshi}}: One happens in episode 8.
* LittleMissBadass: Remon scares the hell out of all her classmates and friends, despite her less than intimidating appearance.
* LoveAtFirstSight
* LoveDodecahedron: Mio likes Tetsurou who likes Kanna who likes Kaito who likes Ichika [[spoiler: who is a HumanAlien and wasn't even sure what was happening]].
** A major part of the character development is people finally getting up the courage to confess, or otherwise pull the strings of the dodecahedron--namely, Tetsurou [[spoiler: told Kaito that Kanna loves him]], and Mio [[spoiler: finally confessed to Tetsurou after he didn't react with disgust at finding out she's a nudist]].
* LoveEpiphany: Ichika showed signs of it in earlier episodes, but seems to finally come to terms with it in episode 7.
* LoverTugOfWar: Slight one happens to Tetsuro in episode 7.
* MagicalGirlfriend: Ichika.
* MaleGaze: Repeatedly, mostly due to Ichika not fully grasping the concept of human modesty.
* MarshmallowHell: Kaito receives one on the first episode, though he was unconscious at the time.
* {{Megane}}: Tetsurou and Kaito.
* {{Meganekko}}: Ichika and Nanami.
* TheMenInBlack: A RunningGag is Ichika being terrified of them.
** [[spoiler: When they do show up, they turn out to be TheCavalry showing up at the behest of their leader: '''Remon.''']]
* MomentKiller: Remon is a master.
** Kanna does this at the end of episode 7.
* MythologyGag: Kaito mentions to Ichika that his 8mm handheld camera belonged to his late grandfather. Those familiar with ''Anime/PleaseTeacher'' can surmise that he is referring to Kei.
** Remon's school uniform is the same as the female student cast's, minus Ichigo, in ''Anime/PleaseTeacher''. In fact, Ichigo's school uniform looks very much like the featured school's in this series ...
* NakedApron: Mio in Episode 10. Continuing Mio's deconstruction of NudityTropes, it's not for {{fanservice}}--it's just what [[spoiler: nudists]] wear while cooking, after all.
* NewTransferStudent: Ichika
* NoRomanticResolution: Not for the main couple, but Tetsuro still seems unattached at the end, although Mio doesn't seem to mind it.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: When Nanami and Kanna walk in on Ichika's IntimateHealing for an unconscious Kaito, the towel she was wearing begins to fall down. Ichika instinctly moves Kaito's head to cover it, giving off a worse impression to both girls, and causing Nanami to faint in the very next episode.
* OneDialogueTwoConversations: In episode 2, Kaito seems ready to say something to Ichika. However, she stops him before he can say it. Then in episode 3, they sort of realize they both had the wrong idea about the attempted conversation. Kaito thought Ichika was going to tell their friends how she rejected his attempted LoveConfession. Ichika, on the other hand, thought he figured out she was really an alien and was going to reveal it to them, and didn't want him to say anything about it, lest she gets taken away and therefore wouldn't be able to find the location she came to Earth for.
* PerpetualSmiler: Remon
* PromotionToParent: Nanami.
* ProperTightsWithASkirt: Remon in her school uniform.
* PurelyAestheticGlasses: Ichika's glasses are actually a head-up display interface for her alien hardware.
* RaceAgainstTheClock: The group needs to find the place Ichika mentioned earlier in the series before [[spoiler:rescue comes because there's possible evidence of FirstContact and if they could find it, it could get Earth upgraded from a Class F Planet (Protected by a AlienNonInterferenceClause) and so Ichika wouldn't have to be forcibly rescued again.]]
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: A [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy heartbroken]] Kanna gives a scathing one to Ichika in episode 9, because by this point she [[HopelessSuitor finally realizes beyond a doubt that Kaito likes Ichika]], and yet Ichika just keeps dodging the subject altogether with him. [[spoiler: A few moments later, Tetsuro tries to comfort her, which puts Mio in the same exact situation with Tetsuro, and she [[CryCute sobs quietly]] nearby.]]
* RefugeInAudacity: Remon constantly drops hints that she may be much [[OlderThanTheyLook older than she looks]].
* RelationshipUpgrade: [[spoiler: Ichika and Kaito in episode 9.]]
* TheRestShallPass: Throughout Episode 11 and 12, each of Kaito's friends stay behind to ensure the pursuing drones do not capture Ichika.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Rinon fits the criteria pretty well, despite being, for all intents and purposes so far, a robot.
* RomanticRunnerUp: Kanna towards Kaito, and Mio towards Tetsuro. Made more painful by the fact that Kaito was told Kanna likes him, and Mio outright confesses to Tetsuro, and they still end up rejecting the girls.
** Near the end of the eleventh episode, [[spoiler:Tetsuro]] asks [[spoiler: Mio]] out to a movie sometime, just the two of them. They happen to be [[spoiler: [[ChaseScene evading an alien robot/rescue pod/terminator while riding a small scooter]]]] at the time.
* RunningGag: Tetsuro always dies a few seconds after appearing on-screen in the movie they're filming. {{Lampshaded}} when Kaito asks him how many times he's died in the movie.
* ScaryShinyGlasses: Happens to Ichika when she strangles Rinon helping her follow Kaito around in episode 4, and again when Kaito finds her standing behind him while at Tetsuro's apartment with Manami later.
* SceneryPorn: The attention paid to the backgrounds can not be ignored.
* SecondYearProtagonist: Ichika
* SecretKeeper: All of the main cast promise not to reveal that Ichika is an alien, although they're not really shocked by it at all either when they first find out.
* SempaiKohai: Ichika and Lemon are always referred to as "sempai", which one would expect at a Japanese school. But things get interesting when ''Manami'' calls Lemon Sempai too.
* SequelHook: [[spoiler: Lemon studying Rinon, who is technically ''a spaceship.'' Then immediately averted, see TheStinger below.]]
* TheSeventies: though the actual time period is not specified, you'd be forgiven if you thought this series was set in the seventies. Manami's car, film cameras instead of video, (can one even get Super-8 film anymore?) the dial phones, the apparent lack of any computers or cell phones, and the complete lack of all non-alien high tech all appear to place this work in the late seventies or early eighties at the latest, an impression reinforced by Ichika's and Kaito's "back then" past-tense narration. Only Tetsuro's caller ID phone seems remotely contemporary.
** If we assume that HighSchoolOfTheDead as show in the movie theater is the real-world show, that would make 2010 the earliest possible timeframe.
** The {{Bland Name|Product}} {{Magic|TheGathering}} game being played in one episode would point to no earlier than the [[TheNineties mid-nineties]].
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Deconstructed with Mio. She's a modest ShrinkingViolet who was raised as a nudist, and tries to hide this fact from others due to her feeling that this makes her a weirdo. Some of her beliefs still leak out, however--she has a tendency to forget about panties, she can't sleep unless she's nude (even in a group), and her idea of a "modest bathing suit" was a bikini more daring than even [[MsFanservice Ichika's]] (which she hid with a hoodie).
** "Mio is a nudist" was a popular fan theory given how frequently she was shown casually nude at home in previous episodes, until she outright confirmed it in episode 7 in response to Tetsurou's stalker calling her an exhibitionist.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Both Kaito and Ichika deny this when Manami asks about it. She then {{t|heTease}}eases them both a little bit about it, but gets flustered at how [[CannotSpitItOut dense both of them are about their feelings]].
* ShipperOnDeck: Kanna attempts to do this in episode 5 when Remon suggests that Tetsuro and Ichika be the main actors. It backfires horribly on her though, as he gets himself "killed" twice in the film (the second time claiming to be the brother of the first guy who "died"), and Kaito is forced to take part in playing the new male lead.
* ShoutOut: Someone in the Episode 3 preview says [[Anime/PleaseTeacher "This is a top priority!"]]
** Kaito and the teacher were watching HighSchoolOfTheDead in the theatre.
** The region of Japan that [=AnoNatsu=] is set in is [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitakami,_Iwate Iwate Kitakami]], though shown from different angles the school that the cast goes to and some of the surrounding areas match the same locations used in {{Escaflowne}} (the scenes set on Earth anyway) almost exactly.
** Generally when ever aliens comes up, [[LampshadeHanging which is a lot]] [[GenreSavvy for some reason]], visual and audio allusions to Film/MenInBlack will happen as well.
* ShrinkingViolet: Mio. Yes, the ShamelessFanserviceGirl is also a ShrinkingViolet, leading to some very odd trope mixups.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is it Remon or Lemon?
* StalkerWithACrush: Kaori's friend, who comes on ''way'' too strong to Tetsuro, culminating in what amounted to a ''near rape.''
* StealthHiBye: Remon is a master of this.
** [[spoiler: Considering her status with the Men in Black, she may actually be using some sort of teleporter.]]
* TheStinger: A blink and you'll miss it one in episode 7. [[spoiler: There is another ship en route to Earth.]]
** A second one after the credits of episode 10. [[spoiler: Ichika's sister comes to rescue her.]]
** A third one at the end of 12. [[spoiler: The movie is being watched many years later, and has one more scene: Ichika is seen wearing the outfit Kaito's sister bought her, and she mentions that [[HereWeGoAgain her ship broke down again]].]]
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Both Kaito & Ichika use a "Boy A/Girl B" analogy to describe their problems to Tetsuro & Remon. Not long after, Tetsuro & Remon themselves both call Kanna "C".
* TheTease: Manami in episode 4 does a smirk on her face and starts teasing Kaito and especially Ichika when she realizes that Ichika showed up in the apartment and was trying to drag him out of there.
* ThrowItIn: In-universe example. When Kaito and his friends start filming in episode 5, Remon has a basic idea of what to film, then has the actors ad-lib lines and improvise. Tetsuro uses this opportunity to jump into the frame claiming to be part of the Men In Black, and promptly gets "shot" by Ichika's gun. He does it again in a later scene, this time claiming to be the first guy's brother, and once again gets "shot", this time by Rinon. Later they add a Kaiju, a Kaiju-sized super sentai (Tetsuro again) and the model airplane Tetsuro was shown building earlier. Lampshaded when Kaito asks him "Do we even know what this film is about anymore?"
** Remon later uses Kaori in the film as well in episode 6 when she shows up. Both [[ClingyJealousGirl Kanna and Ichika]] are not pleased about that.
* TwoScenesOneDialogue: combined with IHaveThisFriend.
* {{Tsundere}}: Kanna mostly, Ichika falls into this trope a couple of times early on.
* UndeadTaxExemption: Ichika's unique quirkiness in cooking, unfamiliarity with Japanese society/culture, and different hair color is attributed to her being a ForeignExchangeStudent. (and without documents, how did she get into school in the first place?) Rinon also largely gets {{Hand Wave}}d as a result of this trope as well.
** [[spoiler: It turns out this is a result of Lemon using her [[TheMenInBlack Men in Black]] connections to help out.]]
* UnmovingPlaid: Kaito's duvet.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: Ultimately, Kanna for Kaito, Tetsurou for Kanna, and Mio for Tetsurou. Although the series ends with everyone aware of the other's feelings.
* TheUnReveal: No one seems surprised at all by the fact that Ichika is an alien by the time she reveals it in episode 9.
* TheUnseen: Tetsuro's brother in law. [[spoiler: Turns out he's a squad leader in TheMenInBlack.]]
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Crimson Red Hair]]: Ichika. Justified as she's a HumanAlien. Subverted as ''everyone'' thinks it's unusual.
** This is despite the fact that everyone has a unusual hair color, but apparently crimson red is just too weird.
* WeNeedADistraction: [[spoiler: Tetsurou, Mio and Kanna distract the rescue robot for Kaito and Ichika to reach the lake in Episode 11.]]
* WhamLine: [[spoiler:"She loves you. Tanigawa Kanna... loves... Kirishima Kaito."]]
** False Wham Line: [[spoiler:It never gets dealt with.]]
* WingdingEyes: Arisawa has hearts in her eyes when trying to jump Tetsurou.
* {{Wingdinglish}}: The alien script's words mirror English-language words.
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Remon. [[spoiler:[[WildMassGuessing Of course, that's assuming she really is Yamano Remon, 17 years old and not Morino Ichigo, 30+ years old.]]]]
* ZettaiRyouiki: Mio.
