History Manga / AoHaruRide

''Ao Haru Ride'', (also known as ''Aoharaido'' by short), is an ongoing shoujo manga by Io Sakisaka since 2011, following the success of her previous work ''StrobeEdge''. It is currently serialized in the magazine ''Bessatsu Margaret'' and compiled in four volumes.

* TheDogBitesBack: When Futaba finally tells Asumi and Chie to back off from Yuuri (which ends up with her losing their trust completely), Yuuri doesn't hesitate to toss in a very initimidating comeback in front of the entire class.
* FirstNameBasis: Futaba starts addressing Kou by his first name just a couple of days after they meet again in high school, reason being that [[DoNotCallMePaul he doesn't want to be called "Tanaka-kun"]] and she feels that he would be a stranger to her if she calls him by his legal last name, Mabuchi. This leads a lot of characters into thinking they're closer than they claim to be, like Tanaka-sensei, Kominato, Yuuri, Touma, and Yui. Kominato starts calling Kou by his first name in vol. 2 after becoming his friend during the events of the HorribleCampingTrip.

* DoesNotLikeMen: Futaba in the prologue chapter, except she warms up to Kou because he's "different."
