* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:Reiko bitch-slaps the demonic matriach to finalize her right to the house.]]

The sequel, ''Rose and Camellia 2'', involves youngest daughter Saori trying to claim the house from Reiko using the same methods as Reiko in the first game. It's available [[http://nigoro.jp/en/games/rose2/ here]], in English and without the need to play through the original.

* DualBoss: Lefti and Righti Mito are still treated as one target.

* MovesetClone: Lefti Mito and Righti Mito play similarly to Etsuko.
* NinjaMaid: Etsuko Mita, who can crawl and stand on the ceiling.

* RogueProtagonist: Or rather, Rogue ''Antagonist''. The sequel follows Saori instead of Reiko, who [[spoiler:''isn't'' evil but is now the final boss]].

From Nigoro, the same people who made ''VideoGame/LaMulana'', comes a 2011 UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash game called ''[[http://nigoro.jp/ja/games/rose/ Rose & Camellia]]''.

With Shunsuke, the eldest son of the Tsubakikoji family dead, his wife Reiko holds claim to being the head of the family and house. However, Shunsuke's sisters and mother object to this as Reiko was born a commoner. So with the family turning against her, what's a forlorn widow to do? Slap these bitches, of course! Join Reiko as she slaps all the women in the family until they accept her as the head of the household.

The basic mechanics are that you move the mouse pointer quickly over the face to the left to slap your opponent, and you move the mouse pointer quickly across the bottom of the window to the right to dodge. Think a {{cat fight}}ing ''VideoGame/PunchOut'' set in the Regency period with some Japanese anachronisms thrown in.

The sequel, ''Rose and Camellia 2'', involves youngest daughter Saori trying to claim the house from Reiko using the same methods as Reiko in the first game. It's available [[http://nigoro.jp/en/games/rose2/ here]], in English, now, and without the need to play through the original.

Nigoro has also made a VideoGame/LaMulana version where Mulbruk goes around fighting various other female characters for the title of main heroine. It can be played [[http://nigoro.jp/en/games/rose_l/ here.]]

* ExtremityExtremist: Everyone fights by slapping with only one arm except for the final boss of the first game who ''punches'' with only one arm. [[spoiler:The sequel's final boss subverts this in the climax, by ''using her other hand''.]]

* ImportantHaircut: Saori gets one at the beginning of the second game.

* {{Retraux}}: The cutscenes are overlaid with a sepia filter, and also resemble the cutscenes of the NES ''VideoGame/NinjaGaiden'' trilogy.
* RogueProtagonist: Or rather, Rogue ''Antagonist''. The sequel follows Saori instead of Reiko, who while not ''evil'' is now the final boss.

* ThresholdGuardian: Etsuko Mito challenges Reiko, not because she has a particular beef with her, but because she's testing her resolve and strength to make changes in the house hold.

There's also a sequel released called Rose and Camellia 2 where Saori, the youngest daughter tries to claim the house from Reiko using the same methods as Reiko in the first game. It's available [[http://nigoro.jp/en/games/rose2/ here]], in English, now, and without the need to play through the original.

* [[AttackItsWeakPoint Attack Her Weak Point]] : In the first game:

* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Zigzagged. Averted to high hell with the (attractive) sisters, twin maids, and the already ugly maid, [[spoiler: Giant demonic matriarch, and muscular, overly masculine cousin]], but played straight with the head of the family, and [[spoiler: Reiko herself]] in the sequel.

* CatFight: Ooooh yeah.
* [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Did You Just Bitch Slap Cthulhu?]]
* DifficultyByRegion, as the English version has a difficulty slider that can make the game easier.
* DualBoss: Lefti and Righti Mito, though they're still treated as one target.
* ExtremityExtremist: Everyone fights by slapping with only one arm except for the final boss of the first game who punches with only one arm.
* FlowerMotifs: Camellias for the '''Tsubaki'''kojis and roses for Reiko.
* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: Other than the ugly NinjaMaid, and Hanae's glowing eyes, it ''sorta'' makes sense. Then the final boss appears...
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: The mother Hanae and the cousin Haruhi

** How about the [[NinjaMaid maid that can crawl and stand on the ceiling?]]
