Taiki: The Webcomic

A webcomic by Laura Knatt

Taiki the Webcomic is a humorous Slice of Life webcomic about a high school girl named Taiki who has to deal with her sexuality, her friends and Tammi, and the girl she's secretly in love with.

Tropes used in Taiki: The Webcomic include:

• Aerith and Bob: They're all real names, but it appears to be an odd mixture of Japanese and English names for no given reason.
• Alpha Bitch: Tammi.
• Armoured Closet Gay: Being attracted to girls--and only girls--means you're gay, Taiki.
• Better as Friends: Alex and the person in her love triangle who doesn't get her.
• Bifauxnen: Alex.
• Boyish Short Hair: Alex, Taiki, Nikki, Raine, Kimi, Kris, Natalie, Jessi. The author seems to love this trope, God bless 'er.
• Closet Key: Alex to Taiki.
• Coming Out Story: for Taiki.
• Everyone Is Gay: Averted. Big time. With Alex!
• Gayngst: Averted. So far, at any rate...
• Incompatible Orientation: Alex for Taiki. Alas.
• Instant Fanclub: Kai has one. Pitty for them he already has his eye on Alex.
• Late Arrival Spoiler: Alex is a girl. (Even if it wasn't unmarked here, you would have figured it out from Lesbian Webcomic + Love At First Sight.)
  • And Kai wants her.
• Love At First Sight: Taiki falls fast for Alex. A subversion, shockingly enough, in that Alex is straight.
• Love Triangle: Taiki and Kai both love Alex. Alex only loves Kai.
• The Not Love Interest: Nikki for Taiki. Also Alex for Taiki.
• One of the Boys: Alex.
• Platonic Life Partners: Taiki and Nikki.
• Put on a Bus: Alex and Kai at the end of Volume 4. Justified in that this take place in a high school and they graduated.
• Schoolgirl Lesbians: Five of 'em that we know of.
• Slice of Life
• Stealth Hi Bye: Haruka is a ninja.
• Tomboy: Alex, full stop. Also Nikki, Taiki, Raine, Kimi...
• Wham! Episode: At the end of chapter 3 Alex kisses Kai.
