In the Clear Moonlit Dusk Vol. 1

Product Information

She has been dubbed the school's "prince" by virtue of her boyishly attractive appearance and casual disposition. Yoi is at first not trying to have much to do with him, but his persistence in chasing her, as well as him (barring their first run-in) always treating her as a girl and not a Prince or a boy makes her soon fall for him. At first he tries to avoid it and downplay his feelings, but soon even he has to admit that he's behaving differently towards her than anyone else.

Love Confession: Ouji ends up telling Yoi that he has feelings for her and quickly hugging her after she spends the day with him picking out a gift for his younger sister. Yaoi Fangirl: One of Yoi's friend Nobara, upon hearing that Ichimura is pursuing Yoi, is seen excitedly holding a magazine that has "BL" (short for "boys' love") written on it and says "I'm making progress. Yoi is well aware of the fact that she looks androgynous enough to pass for a young man and can even accept that, but she doesn't really enjoy being treated like a Prince or constantly mistaken for a boy.Bifauxnen: Yoi's slim body, shortly cropped hair, and lower voice gives her a somewhat androgynous appearance, which has led to most people who just quickly meet her confusing her for a very beautiful young man.

The Ingenue: Despite her princely demeanor and appearance, Yoi's personality is more in line with this trope. Something about a Rose: Like many Bifauxnen and prince types before her, Yoi is often depicted with roses and Bishie Sparkle when she is coming off or doing something particularly princely.He is the first boy to acknowledge her as a girl, and her attempts to distance herself prove futile as he seems to have set his sights on her. Lascivious Beauty Mark: Big Man on Campus Ichimura has a beauty mark near his mouth and is a known ladykiller in school; he hooks up with girls freely and doesn't stay tied down for long.

I Just Want to Be Normal: Said word for word by Yoi to Ichimura when he says that she really looked like a real prince defending a girl in need. I'm a big fan of her other works, Hirunaka no Ryuusei and Tsubaki-chou Lonely Planet, and so far Uruwashi no Yoi no Tsuki seems to measure up. After crashing into her earlier and learning that Yoi is a girl, upperclassman Ichimura, who is also unhappily nicknamed "Prince" because of his good looks and familial wealth, takes an interest in Yoi and attempts to casually pursue her. Paired with her more boyish looks and consideration towards others, girls in particular, she comes off as a Bifauxnen, much to her annoyance.Therefore, the title can be understood as a statement on love, particularly a beautifully subtle love, which suits the slow burn of the relationship that happens between the two leads. Yoi's friends shout out Boys over Flowers and Whisper of the Heart when discussing the merits of a guy with a lot of romantic experience like Ichimura pursuing the inexperienced Yoi. The chemistry between them is really steamy and I think the story is turning out like how the friend perceives it to be like a sweet BL romance. We later learn this is because since middle school, she's been somewhat unfavorably compared to her older and more traditionally feminine sister by the boys in her class. It is not included in promotions available to our main range products, as stated in our terms of service.

Ichimura's so moved by her appearance that he doesn't want any of the friends he came with to also see her like that, lest they too realize just how beautiful she is. She is fawned over by girls of all stripes because of her Bifauxnen looks and accidental princely treatment towards women and is otherwise ignored by guys who often mistake her as one of them.For over a century, Kodansha has relentlessly pursued quality and creativity, which allows us to continuously reimagine what could be. Yoi Takiguchi has long legs, a deep voice, and a handsome face…in other words, Yoi is such a good-looking guy that most people don’t notice or care that she is, in fact, a girl. Insecure Love Interest: Yoi has a complex about her somewhat androgynous looks, so she easily gets overwhelmed and confused by Ichimura's pursual of her as well as embarassed about public displays affection.
