History VideoGame / RoseAndCamellia

* TheBattleDidntCount: [[spoiler:Reiko as the final boss in the sequel.]]

* BigFancyHouse: The setting for the main games.

* IAmNotLeftHanded: [[spoiler:Reiko catches what would have been the decisive blow against her in the sequel, and sends Saori flying with a single slap, no matter how well you performed.]]

** The TrueFinalBoss of the La-Mulana spinoff [[spoiler:Lumisa Kosugi]] really gives off [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Yang Xiao Long]] vibes.

* TearsOfAwe: The tears that slip out of Lady Hanae as you fight her turn into this at the end of the match, as she hopes your slapping prowess can take on [[spoiler: Madame Camellia, the final boss]].

* TheUnintelligible: [[spoiler:Tiamat]] speaks in an ancient language that is subtitled as various symbols, resulting in Mulbruk ignoring her.

The sequel, ''Rose and Camellia 2'', involves Saori trying to claim the house from Reiko one year later 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.

** Camellia's is her nose.

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

* TheChosenOne: As Reiko vows to defeat [[spoiler: Grand Madame Camellia]],Lady Hanae wonders out loud if Reiko is perhaps "The Rose Bride of Legend."

* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: Other than the ugly NinjaMaid and Hanae with her glowing eyes, it ''sorta'' makes sense. [[spoiler:The final boss, Madame Camellia, is the demonic matriarch who has lived for centuries.]]

* LifeMeter: Health is depicted as roses, with weak slaps only shrinking a rose to half its size.
* LighterAndSofter: ''Rose & Camellia & La-Mulana'' is this for ''VideoGame/LaMulana'' proper. In the place of the original game's heaps of lore and melancholy, sometimes dark plot, there is a comedic story of Mulbruk beating up the other female characters [[spoiler:including the Mother, the ''creator of all life on Earth'']] to earn the title of "heroine of La-Mulana."

* MovesetClone: Leftie Mita and Rightie Mita play similarly to Etsuko.

* NintendoHard: The mouse movement-only control scheme makes critical hits and dodges quite difficult.

** Lumisa Kosugi really gives off [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Yang Xiao Long]] vibes.

** Lumisa Kosugi really gives off [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Yang]] vibes.

** Lumisa Kosugi really gives this troper [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Yang]] vibes.

** Lumisa Kosugi really gives this troper [[WesternAnimation/RWBY Yang]] vibes.

* NinjaMaid: Etsuko Mita can crawl and stand on the ceiling.

* RapidFireFisticuffs: In the console and mobile versions, it's possible to seize the opportunity to perform the "Slap Rush", a rapid flurry of slaps that will likely finish off the opponent.

** The first opponent in the third game is "Apoko Kurito", who's a female version of [[Franchise/{{Rocky}} Apollo Creed]] complete with [[WearingAFlagOnYourHead wearing red, white and blue]] sports garb and slapping with boxing gloves.

** FlexibleTourneyRules: That said, most of the other participants don't play fair in the slightest. Apoko [[Main/BoxingBattler punches]], Win Bourbon swats at Rightie with a tennis racket and will even attempt to bludgeon her with the handle, Yumi inexplicably grows an extra pair of arms and [[Main/FinalBoss Mei]] will begin punching and even ''kicking'' when she TurnsRed.

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