  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Oreshura v01 000g

Oreshura, short for Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru, is a 2011 light novel series.

Eita Kidou is a young boy that really hates the concept of "romance". The reason because of that? His parents abandoned him in the search of "true love", that apparently didn't exist between each other. With this fact on his mind, Eita rejects any confession, and concentrates on studying so one day he can enter medical school. He keeps that "anti-romance" opinion to himself though, preferring to only comes up with dodgy answers when any question related to romance comes to him.

That doesn't prevent him of having as best friend a girl, Chiwa Harasuki, a tomboyish, energetic girl.

One day, however, a girl called Natsukawa, envied and/or loved by several students of Kidou's school, asks him out, shocking everyone, even Kidou himself. But, as it turns out, Natsukawa don't wants a "true" romance, but a false boyfriend so boys stop trying to confess to her. And she chose Kidou exactly because she knows he isn't interested in romance and therefore he can't cheat on her and possibly ruin her plan.

But Chiwa secretly loves Kidou, and soon a "battle" initiates, between Kidou's childhood friend and "girlfriend".
