History Characters / HimoutoUmaruChan

* FirstNameBasis: Only back in Akita is she addressed by given name. Averted in the dub, where lots of characters call her "Nana".

* LastNameBasis: Ebina's first name, Nana, was initially only mentioned in a bonus chapter and a splash page. Even Umaru, her best friend, refers to her as Ebina-chan. Averted in the dub, however.

* OnlyOneName: Downplayed. Everyone outside of Akita [[LastNameBasis addresses her as Ebina]], but back at home, she is addressed as Nana. Averted in the anime's dub; everyone just calls her "Nana", regardless of where she is.

* OnlyOneName: Downplayed. Everyone outside of Akita [[LastNameBasis addresses her as Ebina]], but back at home, she is addressed as Nana.

* FirstNameBasis: Only back in Akita is she addressed by given name.

* LastNameBasis: Ebina's first name, Nana, was initially only mentioned in a bonus chapter and a splash page. Even Umaru, her best friend, refers to her as Ebina-chan.

* BrattyHalfPint: In her chibi form she acts like a SpoiledBrat who endlessly whines and throws tantrums to get what she wants despite being 16 years old.

* DitzyGenius: In her chibi form at home, at least. She gets perfect grades in school, but at home she's a lazy slacker who doesn't even know what an Internet router is (which, of course, she finds out the hard way—by spilling Coke on it).

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Everything you need to know about Umaru is summed up neatly in the opening moments of the series; In public, she's a [[TheAce honors student who makes perfect grades and excels at everything she does with virtually zero effort]], yet is incredibly friendly, humble, and adored by nearly everyone around her. But as soon as she arrives back home, she turns into a lazy, bratty gremlin of a shut-in who would rather just eat junk food, play video games, and sleep all day, with Taihei walking in on her while she's napping with her school clothes and a bunch of snacks piled all over the floor.

* HeelRealization: Downplayed. In Chapter 92, Umaru is thrown off when Ebina says Taihei is nice, since he spends a lot of time reprimanding her. When she gets home and thinks it over, she realizes that brother is actually pretty selfless and she constantly takes advantage of it. The realization doesn't led to anything beyond offering her beanbag chair to him when he gets back from work, though.

* RapunzelHair: Hikari has very long hair that reaches past her knees.

* AmbiguouslyGay: She's very interested in Umaru, but it's unclear how much of that is admiration and a RomanticTwoGirlFriendship and how much of that are genuine feelings of love.

* BadlyBatteredBabysitter: This essentially sums up his home life.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Outside her home, she seems to be kind and sophisticated, when in reality, she is a manipulative, self-centered LazyBum.

* SchoolgirlLesbian: Has a huge and very blatant crush on Umaru.

* HeelRealization: Downplayed, but in Chapter 92, Umaru realizes that she's spoiled and Taihei's nice.

* ClosetGeek: Umaru is heavily invested in maintaining her outside image as a perfect girl who's supposedly not even allowed to read manga, while at home she's a lazy {{Otaku}} who's obsessed with anime and video games.

* NotSoDifferent: Taihei and Umaru are both very smart, kind-hearted, friendly and popular; the main difference is Umaru's lazy and selfish "Indoor" persona, something Taihei doesn't have.

* NotSoDifferent: There's actually a lot of parallels between her and Umaru, with both of them being Himoutos. Both girls present themselves as over achieving [[TheAce geniuses]] in public, but at home are [[TheSlacker slackers]] who lounge around obsessively eating food and being dependant on their older sibling. It's no wonder they gain a rivalry.

* AmbiguousSituation: It's left vague if her switching between her outdoor and indoor personas is just figurative or if she's actually a [[VoluntaryShapeshifting shapeshifter]] who causes a visible physical change in her appearance. There are instances where certain characters seem to have noticed the physical difference in her two faces. Kirie fails to realize they are the same person and believes her inside face is her little sister "Komaru".

* SlaveToPR: The only thing that can restrain Umaru's laziness and bratiness is her desire to be seen as perfect by everyone except her brother. Taihei tries exploiting this by spending as much time around Ebina as possible.

* VocalEvolution: Her voice changes between her outside and inside form. She sounds like a mature teenage girl while outside, while she reverts to young and childish inside.
