The story revolves around a young girl named Fubuki who is entered in the Best Of Arcade Gamer video game tournament. She seems incompetent; but she has a secret weapon in the form of the Passion Panties, a magical pair of panties that give her the ability to play video games really well while upside down and shooting electricity out of her hands. But there's an evil organization of muscle men dressed as [[Galaxian|Galaxians]], led by a woman dressed as a Galaxian flagship; they come from some kind of parallel dimension and are commanded by a mysterious [[Hey, It's That Voice!|but familiar voice]]. Fubuki also has to deal with other competitors, including her rival, who wields a pair of '''black''' Passion Panties and ''doesn't'' suck at video games without them!
 
...so it's basically an anime adaption of ''[[The Wizard (Filmfilm)|The Wizard]]'', except with the cast replaced with cute girls, the Power Glove replaced with the Black Passion Panties, and [[Nintendo]] replaced with [[Sega]].

''Arcade Gamer Fubuki'' provides examples of:
 
{{tropelist}}
* [[Americans Are Cowboys]]: Melody Honey.
* [[Animeland]]
* [[Blind Idiot Translation]]: Okay, not quite as bad, but one has to wonder how the translators managed to translate Glass Joe (said ''[[Gratuitous English|completely in English]]'' and a ''[[Punch -Out!!]]'' reference to boot) as Joe Dallas. One common explanation for it is because [http://www.animenewsnetwork.comcc/buried-treasure/2009-04-09/buried-garbage-arcade-gamer-fubuki the subtitler loathed it] and thus [[They Just Didn't Care|didn't care]].
* [[Button Mashing]]: [[Zig -Zagging Trope|Both averted and not]]. Fubuki seems to be just randomly hitting buttons and winning when using her magic panties, but other times games are played believably or at least the punching of the joysticks by a boxer named after a '[[Punch -Out!!]]'' character is explained.
** There was also a brief scene where Hanako played ''[[Decathlete]]''.
* [[Crossover]]: Arashi, the protagonist of ''[[Game Center Arashi]]'' appears in both anime and manga briefly, and, in the manga, there's even an antagonist from the same series.
Line 28 ⟶ 27:
* [[Lawyer-Friendly Cameo]]: There's a conveniently unnamed guy in a karate uniform who works at a rather SEGA-esque company and beats people up for not respecting the game, is [[Hey, It's That Voice!|voiced by]] [[Hiroshi Fujioka]], says "Play until your fingers break!", and stops a missile with his bare hands.
* [[Luke, I Am Your Father]]: {{spoiler|The main villain is Fubuki's father.}}
** The fact that he's also {{spoiler|[[Segata Sanshiro (Advertising)|Segata Sanshiro]]}} is a much bigger twist.
* [[Marshmallow Hell]]: Fubuki suffers this during her first encounter with [[Fan Service|Melody Honey]]
* [[Pac-Man Fever]]: [[Zig -Zagging Trope]]. The show uses real footage of actual games and believable techniques half the time. The other half, we have upside down girls shooting electricity while flashing their panties atop clashing tornadoes of water.
* [[Panty Shot]]: Practically the entire premise of the show!
* [[There Was a Door]]: Mr. Mystery opts to jump through Fubuki's window rather than use the freaking door.
