Tropedia

  • 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.

  • Crowning Moment of Awesome: As heavily implied on the main page, she is very, very good at Tetris. So much so that she participated in a tournament and cleaned house. Nintendo sent in two of their 'Nintendo Assassins,' (gamers who essentially get paid to be awesome at gaming) to beat her. She beat one of them and came close to beating the second, with a smile on her face the entire time.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome: Both Kingdom Hearts theme songs and "Beautiful World". Also, anything that ever gets remixed by PLANITb
  • Scenery Porn: Her video for Passion is just breath-takingly beautiful.
  • Tear Jerker: "Final Distance", given the story behind it: it's an orchestral ballad version of a cute little tune that appeared on her second album, rearranged to honor the memory of 6-year-old schoolgirl Rena Yamashita who was killed in the Osaka school massacre. Prior to her tragic death, she had won an essay competition with her writing about wanting to be a singer just like Utada.
    • Also the deeply wistful "Passion".
      • Another notable mention would be "Dareka no Negai ga Kanau Koro", the theme song to her director ex-husband's movie Casshern. One critic remarked that he didn't understand the movie until he heard the theme song. Then apparently it just clicked.
