'''''Ben-To''''' (ベン・トー) is a comedic Japanese light novel series written by "Asaura," with illustrations by Kaito Shibano. The story was spun off into a manga prequel (''Ben-To Zero: Road to Witch'') and an anime adaptation that premiered in the [[Fall 2011 Anime|Fall 2011 season]].
A freshman high school student named Yō Satou sees some half-priced (translate: 4-hour old) pre-packaged bento (think: lunchboxes) in a nearby grocery store, and goes to grab one, only to end up unconscious on the floor of the store a brief moment later. He soon discovers that the half-priced bento are [[Serious Business]] in this neighborhood. A group of young punks referred to as "Wolves" fight each other in a series of ultra-violent brawls just to get one of the discounted packages, and Satou is warned to stay away from them if he values his life.

* [[Action Dress Rip]]: Played with. During her first fight, Shaga's wearing a dress she was forced into, and uses a pair of chopsticks to hike it up to her hip.
* [[A Day in the Limelight]]: Episode 9, for [[The Scrappy|Shiraume]]. It went pretty much [[Attempted Rape|the]] [[Yandere|way]] [[
* [[Affectionate Parody]]: Of [[Shonen]] [[Fighting Series]].
** [[Indecisive Parody]]: Once you get past the concept, you'll notice that a fair amount of the [[Hot-Blooded]] action is played completely straight.
Line 79:
* [[Godiva Hair]]: Two examples in the [[Pool Episode]]: Brunette, when her top bursts; and Nikaido's fantasy of Matsuba.
* [[Groin Attack]]: Seems like Ume's been listening to [[The Boondocks|Thugnificent's]] Single "Stomp 'em in the Nuts".
* [[Hair of Gold]]: Ayame
* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]: Ume. Just count many times she slapped Yō.
