alt title(s): Akane Iro Ni Somaru Saka
Junichi Nagase is known around town as the feared "Geno Killer". One day while out for a walk, he saves a girl from some delinquents trying to cause trouble. That girl was Yuuhi Katagiri. In a fit of impulse, Junichi ends up kissing her, only to find out that because his parents saved her father some time ago, she is now engaged to be his fiancee. Yuuhi then starts living in his house to try and assemble a report on Junichi to prove to her father why they shouldn't be married. The rest of Junichi's class goes to great lengths to tease the couple, so as it goes,
Hilarity Ensues.
Based on a
Visual Novel by feng. A PS2 port with a new voice cast and
no sex scenes,
Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka Parallel, was released about a year later. Adapted into an anime for the Fall 2008 season.
Tropes in
Akasaka include:
- All Just A Dream — Once the OVA ends, there follows a random and unexpected sequence of Akane-iro suddenly becoming a mecha show. It was all in Junichi's head.
- Anime Theme Song — Two endings/Image Songs apiece for the six main girls in the show, bringing it to a total of twelve.
- Arranged Marriage
- Beach Episode — The bonus OVA.
- Brother Sister Incest — Junichi and Minato are teased and accused of this by everybody, though they continually deny it. Much incest ship tease ensues. Minato wins in the end.
- Canon Sue — Minato seems to be one.
- Covert Pervert — Karen's mind immediately assumes the worst about Yuuhi and Junichi in episode 11. As Nagomi says, "in these situations, the one who gets the most excited is also the dirtiest."
- Cloudcuckoolander — Nagomi Shiraishi, who claims to be "nine parts tsun and never dere with humans".
- Fan Service — The "Hardcore" OVA. Holy shit.
- First Kiss — Junichi gives Yuuhi her first one without thinking.
- Fish Out Of Water — Yuuhi
- Friend To All Living Things — Minato, who makes friends with the bears instead of being devoured.
- Gainaxing — Tsukasa, oh so much.
- Hot Springs Episode — With bears.
- Ho Yay — From Yuuhi to Minato: "I love Junichi, but I love you as much, Minato!"
- Also Junichi and their teacher.
- I Want My Beloved To Be Happy
- Lethal Chef — When Yuuhi cooks, things tend to explode.
- Ojou — Karen Ayanokouji, complete with Princess Curls and a Noblewomans Laugh. Tries way too hard to impress. Yuuhi as well, though it's not her dominant character type.
- Naughty Tentacles — Nothing in the show proper, but Yuuhi demonstrates a great fear of her recurring nemesis, the giant octopus, for this reason.
- Peek A Bangs — Nagomi
- People In Rubber Suits — Karen tries to orchestrate a mock stage show of her versus an octopus monster, which ends up going down in flames. Literally. Yuuhi panicked and set off the fireworks too early.
- Porn Stash — Yuuhi discovers Junichi's while snooping around his room. Minato knows all his hiding places, to her surprise.
- School Festival — It may not be Ashford Academy, but thanks to Mitsuki's mischief, Junichi gets to pilot a Humongous Mecha...which immediately collapses.
- School Newspaper Newshound — Tsukasa, the camera-happy type of girl.
- Shrouded In Myth — The legends of Junichi's reign as "Geno Killer" are still spreading thanks in no part to his friends, when he's really lazy and mostly harmless.
- Skinship Grope — As with any Hot Springs Episode, it happens.
- Student Council President — Mitsuki
- Tsundere — Yuuhi. Enforced by the fact that she's voiced by none other than Rie Kugimiya.
