I don't like the first name basis embarrassment trope, it's dull and oh-so repetitive.
 
self-destruction

also smh people outside of Japan don't understand why some cultures find first name basis to be embarrassing outside of family members
 
Haha, using the first name IS embarrassing in their culture (if what we read from manga and anime is real).
It's like admitting that the two of you have an intimate relationship for everyone to hear.
 
@Lyanhyrt apparently it's not just a trope, it's apparently very common to use last name in Jap culture. Some exchange students came to my Uni back then from Japan and they addressed me with my last name when they had questions.
 
author that can actually move the relationship without 500+ chapters? what is this?
 
@SmartBirb They're just societal conventions. =.= Japan is just slower with the way they become familiar with others.

For a smartbird, that wasn't such a very smart comment.
 
For those that don't get the whole first name thing, instead of first names, imagine they are calling each other darling, honey, or sweetie. That's almost how it feels for them.
