YMMV / One Pound Gospel

• Aluminum Christmas Trees: The central premise of the plot is Kosaku's unintentional obliviousness to the nuances of Angela's faith, such as treating her being a nun as being interchangeable with her being a miko and thus considering it acceptable to pursue her romantically. This is justified because self-identified Christians are extremely rare in Japan — a rough comparison is comparable to Buddhists or Hindus in America — and the precepts of Christianity are largely unknown to the general population.
• Hollywood Pudgy: A staple. Kosaku is referred to as a fat pig most of the time because he can't manage to keep his weight stable despite looking quite athletic and muscular. Another such example involves a rival boxer named Matsuzaka who's been struggling to keep his weight up to Kosaku's level in order to fight him again. During the match, Matsuzaka does look slightly pudgy, yet everyone refers to him as "a whale". Of course, boxers below heavyweight have to be in incredible shape in order to compete, given the strict limits on what they can weigh, to the point that seeing any visible fat on these guys would be taken as a sign of being in sub-optimal shape for the bout. Some stories about real life boxers who have struggled with weight and eating habits talk about these fighters gaining as much as 40 to 60 pounds, (approx. 18 to 27 kg) in between fights, and then having to burn all that off in training.
• Jerkass Woobie: Ryuusei Kurenai is a host and will lure everyone in his host club to trick them into buying expensive things because his parents sold him to the club to pay a huge debt, and now he has to pay it off, and won't shut up about that... Except he's lying about it and will admit it. Then again, the only reason he's lying is that his debt is twice of what he says.
