History Manga / NozoXKimi

* BleachedUnderpants: While it’s still quite {{Ecchi}}, it’s much softer on the sexual side of things than its predecessor ''Nozoki Ana'', which was PornWithPlot that often turned into borderline hentai.

* BuxomIsBetter: One of the issues Nozomi and Kimio try to resolve is a case of two friends who are mutually pining for each other, but the girl has ACupAngst and the boy thinks too much about big boobs to really find her physically attractive.

* {{Gainaxing}}: Makino’s breasts move about exaggeratedly when she tries to so much as walk steadily, which is the source of her DCupDistress.

* AmbiguousDisorder: It’s never quite understood why Nozomi was such an EmotionlessGirl for most of her life. She’s been expressionless and disinterested in everything ever since she was born, to the point of not even crying when she’s hurt. Even after seeing Kimio in her locker sparks her first sense of excitement, her behavior is still quite odd. Furthermore, she’s TheSocialExpert and can easily deduce how other people feel, but also has NoSocialSkills and struggles to understand how her words impact people. Her strong attachment to Kimio and obsession with “showing” and peeking at people’s true selves have a weirdly sexual element to them.

* SpiritualSuccessor: To Honna’s previous work, ''Manga/NozokiAna''. Like its predecessor, it centers around the male protagonist’s blackmail-induced voyeurism/exhibitionism relationship with his female classmate/neighbor, only this time, they’re high school students living across from each other rather than college students living next door.

* ProtagonistTitle: The original name that the manga went by was the names of the two leads.
* PunBasedTitle: ''Nozo × Kimi'' is a homophone for “peeping.”

* PantyShot: There’s an abundance of these throughout the manga. Nozomi in particular is subject to this, which is further exaggerated by the fact that she often intentionally flashes these at Kimio.
