History Manga / Fuuka

** Thanks to the Anime's AdaptationAlternateEnding, this gets PlayedStraight.

* CharacterTitle: Played with, as there are 2 different central characters with the given name "Fuuka". [[spoiler:Initially, it's assumed the title refers to Fuuka Akitsuki; however, she dies in a car accident early in the series, which makes it appear as though it's become an ArtifactTitle. However, the band continues to bear her name and soon afterwards another "Fuuka" appears and joins the remaining members of The Fallen Moon... Who then rebrands as The Blue Wells, this time in reference to the second Fuuka.]]

** Taken into full-on {{Ecchi}} with the [[https://tieba.baidu.com/p/5064385760 anime-exclusive Epilogue comic]] packaged with the Blu-Ray copies of the Anime, [[spoiler:where Yuu gets into an AccidentalPervert moment with Fuuka, leading to a somewhat "very steamy" moment between the two of them in her room.]]

* MeanBoss: The band's label boss, Amaya. She provides her artists with conditions that are near-impossible to fulfill, and demands that they repay large sums of money if they cannot meet the conditions. [[spoiler:She apparently believes this kind of behavior will somehow motivate them to do their best and become better than the Hedgehogs]].

** TheLancer: Fuuka

* AndTheAdventureContinues: [[spoiler:The anime, having averted Fuuka's infamous death by truck, ends with Yuu and Fuuka officially beginning a relationship and the group preparing for more concerts. Meanwhile, Koyuki forms the band Rabbitz and the Hedgehogs plan their comeback. In the epilogue, Yuu and Haruna return to the shrine where Fuuka first declared her desire to be a singer to reaffirm their hopes for the future.]]

* CharacterTitle: Played with, as there are 2 different central characters with the given name "Fuuka". [[spoiler:Initially, it's assumed the title refers to Fuuka Akitsuki; however, she dies in a car accident early in the series, which makes it appear as though it's become an ArtifactTitle. However, the band continues to bear her name and soon afterwards another "Fuuka" appears and joins The Fallen Moon.]]

* ThemeNaming: Not exactly apparent at first glance, but the members of Kanaria have their names based on the [[KatanasOfTheRisingSun Imperial Japanese Navy]]'s ''Mogami-Class'' Heavy Cruisers [[spoiler:(including Le Bard's Manager, Akira Mogami, who played bass with them during their heyday)]]. This also extends to their sound engineer who bears the name of the youngest ship of the said class ''Kumano''.

* OfficialCouple: Yuu and Akitsuki are an item from the first chapter and start dating pretty early into the manga.

* SparedInTheAdaptation: [[spoiler: Fuuka's infamous death by truck is completely averted in the anime, as the truck driver stops just short of her before the plot changes.]]

* AlwaysSecondBest: Koyuki and Sara. Both of them have crushes on Yuu, but both come up short and lose Yuu to Akitsuki. After [[spoiler: Akitsuki dies, it seems that they are on the brink of losing to Aoi]]. This tends to happen with the band itself as well; they're often inconsistent in live performances, but when they put it together and put on a great show, they almost always get shown up by another band, whether its Le Bard, the Rabbitz, or the Hedgehogs.

* DroppedABridgeOnHer: [[spoiler: The most famous twist in the series is the fact that the titular character Fuuka Akitsuki gets run over by a truck in Chapter 36 without warning. Toyed with again when Aoi almost gets hit by a truck 80 chapters later.]]

* ShoutOut: In the anime, there's a couple in a restaurant that look suspiciously like [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Jaune Arc and Pyhrra Nikos]].

Yuu Haruna is a cell phone and Twitter addict who just moved into town. Out on his way to buy dinner while engrossed in his phone, Yuu bumps into a mysterious girl, Fuuka Akitsuki (the [[SpinOffspring daughter of Yamato Akitsuki and Suzuka Asahina]] from ''Manga/{{Suzuka}}''), who breaks his phone thinking he was trying to take a picture of her panties. What follows is Yuu's adventures in making friends and starting a rock band.

* GayMoment: Invoked by Mikasa to tease Yuu anytime Yuu expresses admiration for him and how comfortable he is with himself. Mikasa switches targets to Nachi after he joins the band, presumably because Nachi is far easier to work up.

* {{Tsundere}}: Almost all of the girls have the personality type to some degree. All of the members of Yuu's harem will hit him if they think he's doing something perverted [[AccidentalPervert (which of course he never is)]].
