History YMMV / KazeToKiNoUta

* EvilIsSexy: Auguste Beau. Certainly in-story, where he's known as something of a lady-killer; readers' opinions, on the other hand, are considerably more mixed. (He does seem to have avoided DracoInLeatherPants status, however- probably because even his fans acknowledge that he's an irredeemable bastard.)

* TrueArtIsAngsty: It's an award-winner.

* ArcFatigue: The reader is taken out of the main story about halfway through the fourth volume and treated to ''six volumes'' (out of a total of 17) worth of uninterrupted {{backstory}}- and the scanlations are currently in the middle of that. To be fair, having three volumes about Gilbert's past does a lot to justify how the kid came to be so screwed up, but devoting two volumes to [[PosthumousCharacter the life of Serge's father]] after that is perhaps a bit too much.

* MagnificentBastard: Arguably, Rosemariné. No matter how much of a {{jerkass}} he is in the early volumes, he is just far too ''fabulous'' to hate.

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: When Pascal calls the seniors idiots for trying to prove their masculinity at the pub by out-drinking each other, pointing out that one's ability to consume alcohol is an individual issue based on physical parametres.

* NeedsMoreLove: Despite being an award winning manga that helped revolutionize shoujo ''and'' was made into an OVA special, the series itself has had little attention outside of Japan and (to a lesser extent) Italy. Even scanlations have only covered less than half of the manga so far.

* TheWoobie: Both Serge and Gilbert. Mostly Gilbert, though, as has already been mentioned above.

* TearJerker: [[TearJerker/KazeToKiNoUta Doesn't even BEGIN to cover it.]]

* CrowningMomentOfFunny: That one bunch of students hiding behind their own ''speech bubbles'' while spying on Serge and Rosemariné.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome:
** In story, Serge's fight with Jaques Dren is treated as this, securing his position as the most popular boy in school.
** Pascal standing up in the middle of a Latin exam and announcing- in perfect Latin- that it is a dead language and they should be learning more useful subjects such as science instead and then walking out.
** Pascal gets another one in volume 12, [[spoiler:where, as irony would have it, he gets the highest score in his class and is finally able to move up a grade]].
** Serge managing to block one of Blough's punches with a book.

* MoralEventHorizon" Auguste certainly crossed this line when he [[spoiler:raped Gilbert for the first time, so soon after the poor kid had already been raped by Bonnard]]. Alternatively, he crossed it a little ''before'' that with [[spoiler:his horrendous victim-blaming when Gilbert had just been brought back home after the Bonnard incident]].

* NightmareFuel" Two words: [[spoiler:Bonnard incident]]. Really, though, any scene involving [[spoiler:graphic rape]] belongs here.

* FirstInstallmentWins: There's a three-novel sequel called ''Kami no Kohitsuji''. Seriously. Good luck trying to find any info on it.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation - Since the series hasn't been fully translated, a few characters have gotten this.
* ArcFatigue: The reader is taken out of the main story about halfway through the fourth volume and treated to ''six volumes'' (out of a total of 17) worth of uninterrupted {{backstory}} - and the scanlations are currently in the middle of that.
