History YMMV / KeitAi

* ForcedMeme: ''Keit-Ai'' is an example of one that actually became a meme. It was originally posted over and over on "Write an Anime Plot" threads since 2011 as a RunningGag of sorts reminiscent of [[LoliconAndShotacon "Lolis skateboarding competitively"]], [[http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=2795296 "Imagine punching somebody so hard that they turn into a door"]], or [[https://www.lurkmore.com/view/Ghost_Slide "Ghost Slide"]] (another fake anime concept based on a 4chan in-joke).

* GratuitousJapanese: The [[https://www.fictionpress.com/s/3206139 original fiction]] version of ''Keit-Ai'' has a tendency to needlessly add Japanese words, terms, memes, and references to it, often to its detriment (like the way it insists on using "Iincho" instead of the English equivalent of ClassRepresentative).

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Or rather, Germans seem to love the ''Keit-Ai'' meme the most, as evidenced by these [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZEERtZjlLs two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jrw8AW8LMNk videos]] at least.

* CriticalResearchFailure: In the [[http://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/keit-ai/list?title_no=36825 webcomic]] version of ''Keit-Ai'', its "P.S. Face to Face" chapter features a data limit surcharge in US dollars instead of Japanese yen even though it's set in Japan.

* IncrediblyLamePun:
** For some people, combining the rōmaji versions of the Japanese words of "Keitai" and "Ai" constitutes a groan-inducing pun.
** Ditto for the English equivalent of the title, which is "Cel-Love".

* RationalFic: According to an anon on the Website/FourChan Literature Board, the original fiction version of ''Keit-Ai'' is an [[https://warosu.org/lit/thread/S8863909#p8866015 "underrated gem"]] of rationalfic.

-->'''Redditor:''' The strangest thing was that the posters and trailers for that film were actually shopped to make fake 'promotional material', ''[[AchievementsInIgnorance before anyone even knew what]] [[AccidentallyCorrectWriting the plot of Kimi No Na Wa was about.]]'' Then it came out, and the resemblances did not escape the attention of /a/.
