Yamato Nadeshiko Tv Tropes, Basic Trope: A woman who conforms to classic Japanese ideals of femininity. "Yamato Nadeshiko" (JP) is a term for a female character who is a representation of the Japanese ideal of a perfect woman. She is also devoted to her friends, family and the man she loves. Born as Kaidou's daughter and groomed from a young age to be his heir, Yamato instead developed a profound admiration for the legendary samurai Kouzuki Oden. 2. Breaking the expression down: "Yamato" is one of the older (and thus fancier) names for Japan and the Japanese culture; "Nadeshiko" is Japanese for Dianthus superbus, otherwise known as the carnation, a wildflower native to the Japanese highlands. 1. There are numerous self-referential anime references, particularly to the series Space Battleship Yamato (the name Nadesico is a play on the phrase "Yamato nadeshiko", which represents the traditional Japanese ideal of femininity, and also the name of a flower). Straight: Sakura is somewhat pretty and she has a demure personality. Welcome to Yamato!!
