{{quote| ''"The Devil's Black Rabbit of an Unknown Time."'', aka, ''"A Dark Rabbit Has Seven Lives."''}}
 
Kurogane Taito is a freshman in Miyasaka High. Being rendered unable to perform karate due to an accident, he believed himself to be a normal guy. But an accident that should have killed him occurred. And the lost memories of a childhood love with the vampire, Most Ancient Sorcerer, Saitohimea, came flooding back from nine years ago. Soon he was once again plunged into the mysterious, with the destinies of their allies and foes already woven and foretold in an ancient prophecy of epic proportions.
 
Based on a [[Light Novel]] by Tayaka Kagami, it'''''A Dark Rabbit Has Seven Lives''''' (いつか天魔の黒ウサギ, ''Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi'', literally The Devil's Black Rabbit of an Unknown Time) has an ongoing [[Manga]] illustrated by Shiori Asahina, and an [[Anime]] series for [[Summer 2011 Anime|Summer 2011]] produced by ZEXCS. It also has a [[Spin-Off]] series, ''Gekkō Kurenai's GekkouStudent noCouncil SeitokaishitsuRoom (Gekkou紅月光の生徒会室, Kurenai's StudentGekkō Councilno RoomSeitokaishitsu)''.
 
{{tropelist}}
* [[Absurdly Powerful Student Council]]
* [[AIA.I. Is a Crapshoot]]: Magical version happens at episode 4 & 5. And it's on the [[High Octane Nightmare Fuel|level]] of [[System Shock|SHODAN]].
** To elaborate, in episode 4, Himea is revealed to have a male personality called Bahlskra, made by Himea herself in order to ward off her loneliness. It goes apeshit over Taito by taking over Himea and attempts to kill Taito multiple times.
** In episode 5 the rapture (or Bliss, depending on the translation) spell, also made by Himea herself sometime in the past, goes [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]] over Taito. Much of the episode 5 is spent on Taito's attempt to recover Himea's true personality, despite [[Not Distracted Byby the Sexy|endless attempts of seduction to the point of Himea being fully naked last half of the episode]].
* [[Bland-Name Product]]: The soft drink Dr. Cinnamon.
* [[Breather Episode]]: [[Hot Springs Episode|episode 12]]. MUCH [[Hilarity Ensues]], especially on the guys' part.
* [[Cursed Withwith Awesome]]: Kurogane Taito {{spoiler|can only be killed SIX times (the Seventh time will [[Killed Off for Real|kill him for real]]) and Fifteen minutes after the first death they reset again.}}
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: [[Eldritch Abomination]] are almost regular [[Monster of the Week]] in the series.
* [[Did You Just Romance Cthulhu?]]: Two of the lead female characters are extradimensional entities.
* [[Die for Our Ship]]: In-universe -- Taito/Haruka shippers (read: all their classmates) are more than willing to give him [[Death Glare|Death Glares]] if he refuses to eat [[Through His Stomach|her lunch]] and/or make her cry.
{{quote| '''EAT IT!!!!!'''}}
* {{spoiler|[[Enfant Terrible]]: Hinata.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Evil Twin]]: Hinata, to Gekkou.}}
Line 32 ⟶ 31:
* [[Good Thing You Can Heal]]: {{spoiler|Taito}} must be killed seven times before he stays dead. So in any fight against any opponent, you can put good money on him dying at least six times.
* [[Idiot Hair]]: Himea.
* [[Immortality]]: Taito has a type VI ([[Blessed Withwith Suck|Immortality only]]) version of immortality.
* [[Immortal Life Is Cheap]]: Taito is given an powerful fire spell by Himea that is normally forbidden since it is as lethal to the wielder, but in his case...
* [[Innocent Fanservice Girl]]: Mirai is the series premiere source of Panty Shots.
Line 41 ⟶ 40:
* [[Let's You and Him Fight]]: Taito and Himea vs. Gekkou and Mirai in episode 2, until Hinata [[Conflict Killer|arrives]].
* [[Mood Whiplash]]: Happens from the beginning to the point of instant HSQ. Cute girl confesses her love. Then [[It Got Worse]] happens.
* [[Multicolored Hair]]: Himea, Haruka, Mirai and Aomi - basically an instant indication that a character is non-human or at least unusual, yet goes unnoticed by everyone around them.
* [[Named Weapons]]: Gekkou's sword Spell Error.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Taito gets a hilarious one when he finds out that {{spoiler|the two Spell Breakers that antagonized him previously are now his new classmates.}}
* [[Our Angels Are Different]]: The Tenma, who can also be called the Seraphim.
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]]: Saitohimea's description is read as "Most Ancient Sorcerer".
* [[Our Zombies Are Different]]: Taito is effectively an undead.
* [[Patient Childhood Love Interest]]: Haruka. Not so much though after episode 8, though she apparently likes to use the "sad face" facade too much.
* [[Phrase Catcher]] -> [[Catch Phrase]]:
{{quote| '''To Gekkou''': "Who do you think you are?"<br />
'''Gekkou''': "[[Insufferable Genius|A genius]]." }}
* [[Power Dyes Your Hair]]: Mirai.
Line 58 ⟶ 57:
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: Taito and Himea have these.
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Mirai and Gekkou respectively.
* [[Required Secondary Powers]]: inverted, Taito's immortality effectively becomes one when Himea gives him a second, more offensive ability: the power to wield Cursed Flame with his fists.
* [[School Uniforms Are the New Black]]: Gekkou is always seen wearing his school uniform.
* {{spoiler|[[Self-Made Orphan]]: Hinata killed his parents.}}
* [[Shock and Awe]]: Mirai.

Line 71 ⟶ 70:
* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]: Taito's is light blue.
* [[Yandere]]: Saitohimea when she has the "Bliss" spell take over her personality (As detailed in the AI is a Crapshoot above).
{{quote| '''To Taito''': "Do I have to kill all the women who distract you?"}}
* [[You Cannot Grasp the True Form]]: The Tenma.
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: Saitohimea's hair goes from purple to blue... And no-one bats an eyelash. Did I mention it sparkles?
