The GenderFlip version of ''Franchise/TokimekiMemorial''. After the big economic dropout that was ''Tokimeki Memorial 3'', Konami decided to step into otome game territory, a genre in expansion at the time. The first game was released in 2002 for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation2 with a huge commercial success, with two sequels and various remakes after that and forming a franchise of its own: the "Girl's Side" branch. Its sweet, funny, and at times painful atmosphere has gained quite a fan following, with all three games' UsefulNotes/NintendoDS versions and both versions of the third being the only [=TokiMemo=] games to date to receive complete fan translations.

The GenderFlip version of ''Franchise/TokimekiMemorial''. After the big economic dropout that was ''Tokimeki Memorial 3'', Konami decided to step into otome game territory, a genre in expansion at the time. The first game was released in 2002 with a huge commercial success, with two sequels and various remakes after that and forming a franchise of its own: the "Girl's Side" branch. Its sweet, funny and painful at times atmosphere has gained quite a fan following, with the first two games' DS versions being the two only Tokimemo games translated into English (both were [[FanTranslation fan translations]], though)

The game follows the same mechanic as the male versions: you're playing as a freshman in a Japanese HighSchool, and you'll spend your three years of school time studying, participating in club activities, working part-time, meeting other students (both male and female) and getting closer to them in the hope of getting the confession of love of a male classmate at the place of legend of your High School on Graduation Day.

Each game's cast of characters fits neatly into a standard array of types: the [[TheAce prince]], the studious {{megane}}, the sporty guy, the artsy guy, the fashionable guy, the [[SempaiKohai kohai]], the [[TeacherStudentRomance teacher]]... How each type is executed varies quite a bit from game to game, [[CastOfSnowFlakes giving players a wide selection to choose from]] of LoveInterests. Obviously, there's also the ChildhoodFriend, normally considered the TrueEnding of each game.

The ''Girl's Side'' games also have a few unique additions: the "Best Friends" mode, where the heroine and a guy have a close friendship that doesn't develop into love (at least in the heroine's side), the "Rival" system, where a female character and the heroine fight for the same guy, and the third game's the "3P"/"PVP" system, where the heroine can date two guys at the same time.

The character sheet is [[Characters/TokimekiMemorial here.]]

----
!!This game provides examples of:

* AccidentalKiss: A mechanic in the second game causes the heroine to have one with one of the guys - which guy it happens with is selected based on the player's answers to the personality quiz on the first day. If it's a guy she hasn't already met, it doubles as a CrashIntoHello.
* TheAce: Kei Hazuki in [=TMGS1=] and Teru Saeki in [=TMGS2=]. They're good-looking, smart, athletic and all-around talented, and as such fill the role of the "prince type" for their respective games. The third game breaks from the pattern by having two "main" guys, the Sakurai brothers, neither of whom quite fit the "prince" mold.
* AlwaysIdenticalTwins: The Sakurai brothers. They even changed their hairstyles so people would stop mistaking one for the other. [[spoiler: It turns out later that they aren't blood related, they just happen to resemble one another that closely.]]
* BeautifulDreamer[=/=]SleepCute: A common source of CG events, such as coming across one of the guys napping at school.
* BeautyContest: The "Rose Queen" contest in [=TMGS3=]. The heroine must win it to obtain certain endings.
* BigDamnKiss: At the end of the love confessions, used from ''2nd Kiss'' onward.
* BookDumb: Madoka Kijyo in the first game; Harry and Chris in the second, among others. Each game has at least one or two guys who fails exams without remorse.
* BrokenAce: The Ace characters of each game also tend to fall into this trope. Kei in the first game is a mild example, mostly in that he's very introverted and too much of a doormat to say no to people when they ask him to do things even if it means he's so tired he falls asleep during exams. Saeki in [=TMGS2=] is a much more dramatic example.
* TheCameo: All the [=TMGS1=] guys make a cameo in the background in [=TMGS2=]. In [=TMGS3=], Himuro, Amanohashi and Tsukushi have small appereances.
* CannotSpitItOut: The Girl's Side games lack the "confess at this spot on Graduation Day" legend used by the main branch games as justification for why everyone wants to save their LoveConfession for that specific day. As a result, none of the guys in these games can ever manage to express their feelings clearly to the heroine before that point, and should any of them get close, the heroine proves [[ObliviousToLove utterly incapable of taking the hint]].
* CastFullOfPrettyBoys: Naturally.
* ChickMagnet: A few of the guys in each game. Saeki in the second game is probably the most dramatic example; he can barely turn a corner at school without getting mobbed by fangirls.
* CrashIntoHello: A common method of meeting classmates both male and female, starting with Kei in the first game.
* ContinuityNod: In the second game, Shiho still works at the flower shop, and the museum still does displays of Shiki's artwork. And in the third, Junpei is a big fan of Kei, and you can buy a shirt with his photo in it.
* CustomUniform: Many of the guys, especially the artsy and fashionable types, make modifications to their school uniforms. Himeko in [=TMGS2=] takes it even further, wearing a heavily customized ''pink'' version of the Hanegasaki uniform.
* CuteSportsClubManager: Tamami from [=TMGS1=]. The heroine can also become the manager of a sports club, usually the baseball club.
* DatingSim
* {{Delinquents}}: Jin from the first game and the Sakurai brothers from the third.
* TheFaceless: The heroines. The closest thing we get to see of their faces are their super-deformed sprites in the activity sections. There's also a CG in [=TMGS3=] where we can see the heroine smiling, but most of her face is bleached out.
* FlowerMotifs: The primrose legend in [=TMGS3=].
* ForTheCelOfIt: The "Boys' Life" section in the PSP port of [=TMGS3=].
* GenkiGirl: Natsumi in the first game; Haruhi in the second. The protagonist of each game also tends to come across this way.
* HelloInsertNameHere: The EVS system has the player provide the pronunciation of their name using kana, allowing the guys to actually call her by any of a fairly broad selection of Japanese names pre-recorded for this purpose. The tone of voice doesn't always match up with the rest of what they're saying, but it's still an impressive effort.
* HugeSchoolgirl: Shiho in [=TMGS1=], Tatsuko in [=TMGS2=], and Karen in [=TMGS3=].
* ImageSong: All the capturable guys have one.
* JapaneseHonorifics: As in most of the main branch games, the player can choose what honorifics to use on the dateable guys, and what forms of address they're willing to accept from the heroine depends on how much they like her.
* JustFriends: A heroine pursuing more than one guy can eventually tell one of them she just wants to be friends. This activates "Best Friends" mode, in which they go out on platonic dates and the friend-zoned guy gives the heroine relationship advice while still clearly in love with her himself. It's up to the player whether the she sticks with her first choice or runs to the arms of her best friend at the last minute.
* {{Joshikousei}}: The female characters and the heroine.
* KindheartedCatLover: Kei in the first game; Wakaouji in the second.
* {{Leitmotif}}: All the capturable characters (both male and female) have one.
* LoveTriangle: If the player activates the "Rival" mode or the "Pride VS Pride" mode (where two male characters fight over the heroine)
* MeaningfulName: The second game's PS2 subtitle, "2nd Kiss", may be a reference to how the heroine can kiss the same boy twice if she had her AccidentalKiss with him. And the first game's DS subtitle, "1st Love", may apply [[spoiler: if the player follows Kei's route, as the heroine was his first love.]]
* MiniGame: A few. There's the three sports festival minigames, the homemade Valentine chocolate minigame and the pillow fight in the second year's school trip.
* MultipleEndings: You can get a love ending, a JustFriends ending, an ending where you reject the first guy's confession and you accept the second... the number is larger with each installment.
* NintendoHard: '''Kei'''.
* [[spoiler: NotBloodSiblings: The Sakurai brothers aren't related. Ruka was adopted by Kouichi's family as a child after his parents died in an accident.]]
* TheOjou: Mizuki from [=TMGS1=] and Hisoka from [=TMGS2=]. Karen from [=TMGS3=] is from a rich family, but tries to stay away from this trope.
* OneTrueLove: The childhood friend endings. In the first game we have [[spoiler: Kei]], in the second there's [[spoiler: Teru]] and in the third both Sakurai brothers could apply, but the TrueEnding is probably Ruka's.
* PlayerPersonalityQuiz: On the second game, it determinates the guy the heroine will accidentally kiss.
** The first part of the test determines what her starting parameters are.
* RuleOfFunny/ RuleOfRomantic/ RuleOfDrama: Like the male installments, it is diluted in around 40% romance, 40% funny, and 20% drama.
* RummageSaleReject: The system the game uses for the protagonist's clothing choices tracks which overall style each piece belongs to and how warm the outfit will keep her, but isn't otherwise concerned with whether or not the individual articles of clothing in any way go together. Going out of one's way to dress according to trends and/or a guy's favorite style and color can frequently land headfirst into this trope, especially in the third game, which allows even more layering of pieces and mixing of styles.
* SailorFuku: The Habataki female uniform in [=TMGS1=]. In [=TMGS3=], it's changed to a blazer.
* SayItWithHearts: The [=TMGS3=] heroine when she's in a close relationship with a guy.
* SecretCharacter: Each game has at least one. The DS version of the first game adds one (making it two), the DS version of the second game adds two (making it three) and the PSP version of the third adds one (making it '''five''', the largest number of secret characters in any Tokimemo game)
* SequelDifficultyDrop
* SchoolPlay: The heroine can take part in one as the main character in her third year if she's close enough with any of the main guys. The plays are based on fairytales or are actual theatre plays.
* ShoutOut: In the third game, you can buy Shiori's yellow headband and [[VideoGame/LovePlus Manaka]]'s white ribbon.
* ThreesomeSubtext: The "3P" mode.
* UmbrellaOfTogetherness:
** How the heroine first meets Shouta in [=TMGS2=] through sharing an umbrella.
** If the heroine chooses the right option, it's how she meets [[SecretCharacter Akagi]]. They shelter from rain under one umbrella.
* UpdatedRerelease: The first ''Girl's Side'' game was originally for PS2, but got a DS port subtitled ''1st Love'', that added a new character (later there was a remake of the DS port subtitled ''1st Love Plus'' that fixed some bugs of the system) The ''2nd Kiss'' game, also originally for PS2, got another DS port with two new characters subtitled ''2nd Season''. The ''3rd Story'' game was first released for DS and later got a PSP port subtitled ''3rd Story Premium'', with a new character and animated sprites.
* VictoriousChildhoodFriend / UnluckyChildhoodFriend: All the games have one. The outcome depends on the player's choices.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: In the third game, Karen is the tomboy and Miyo the girly girl. In the second game, the heroine can be the girly girl to Tatsuko's tomboy.
