History Manga / Mahoraba

* {{Bokukko}}: Shiratori retains his male speech patterns even after [[DraggedIntoDrag he was made to crossdress]], which allows Chiyuri to look at him before she [[{{does not like men}} gets used to men]].

With AnAesop in every chapter, ''Mahoraba'' is one of those "[[{{Iyashikei}} feel good]]" sort of mangas. The sort you've likely never read before.

The anime adaptation is free to stream on [[https://www.crunchyroll.com/mahoraba-heartful-days Crunchyroll]].

* BittersweetEnding: Manga Only: Wherein Ryuushi has fallen in love with ALL of Kozue-chan's personalities but [[spoiler: his love for her gradually cures her insanity and causes all her personalities, each lovely human-beings unto themselves, to be absorbed into her primary psyche, never to emerge again.]] Afterwards we are introduced to [[spoiler: Kozue-chan and Ryuushi's four daughters, who each [[GenerationXerox bore an uncanny resemblance to the four personalities whom their mother once transformed into]].]]

* ComedicSociopathy: In the beginning, mostly at Sayoko's expense, and quite a lot from Saki's side once [[spoiler: she hooks up with Ryuushi, because she's too embarrassed. She tries her best to avoid it, but fails a lot]].

** Shiratori's three art school friends. The plot for one of the drama [=CDs=] [[LampshadeHanging revolves around]] their trying to get names. The manga does give them names in the end: Ero Freak's name is [[spoiler: Yamabuki Tsubasa]], the yaoi fangirl is [[spoiler: Aizawa Risona]], and the 'normal' girl with the nail bat is [[spoiler: Amane Mizuho]].

* PercussiveMaintenance: Momono calls it the "Russian Repair Method": "Wish it to be fixed, and pound it." [[spoiler: It doesn't work]].

* InstantSeiza

* LoveYouAndEverybody: Nanako pulls this the first time we see her.

Compare with ''Manga/MaisonIkkoku'', which has a similar setup of a romance at a boarding house, but is more grounded and [[{{Seinen}} aimed at an older audience]]. Not to be confused with ''LightNovel/{{Maburaho}}'', which sits comfortably on the exact opposite end of the romantic comedy spectrum.

* PantyShot: None for the audience, but a few character-only ones happen for Shiratori's "benefit", such as the trope page image.

* HairColors

* TokenYuriGirls: Chanohata Tamami admits to Shiratori Ryuushi that she is in love with Aoba Kozue (who is completely oblivious), explaining her mean-spirited attitude.

First-Year College student Shiratori Ryuushi moves into the boarding house, Narutakisou. Under the tender care of Aoba Kozue, Narutakisou provides a home to people whose personal lives are all painful in one way or another; yet together, somehow, they make up a true family. Not only does Shiratori find a home at Narutakisou, but he also finds himself falling in love with a girl who is far more than she seems. Compare with ''Manga/MaisonIkkoku''.

Not to be confused with ''Anime/{{Maburaho}}'', which sits comfortably on the exact opposite end of the romantic comedy spectrum.

* RomanticTwoGirlFriendship:
** Michiyo definitely has a crush on Asami, which might even be something more.
** And Shiratori's arrival likely disrupts such a relationship between Tamami and Kozue, which explains Tamami's hostility toward him rather well.

** Michiyo definitely has a crush on Asami, which might even [[SchoolgirlLesbians be something more]].

* ZettaiRyouiki: Part of Kozue's leisurely wardrobe, and apparently an official part of Asami's middle-school uniform.

With AnAesop or SugarWiki/HeartWarmingMoments (or more likely, both) in every chapter, ''Mahoraba'' is one of those "[[{{Iyashikei}} feel good]]" sort of mangas. The sort you've [[SugarWiki/NeedsMoreLove likely never read before]].
