''[httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20130526081119/http://daresensei.net/ Dare Sensei]'' is a [[Web Comic]] written by Mary Bell and illustrated by the Palcomix Team that presents a version of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' as it may have been conceived by Japan. In this dimension, Rassilon visited Earth in 247 BC and returned to Gallifrey with knowledge of the era's most advanced culture — the Japanese. <ref>(That the Japanese can barely be said to have existed as a race, let alone super-advanced or anything like they are today, in 247 BC is another matter altogether. Then again, this ''[[Willing Suspension of Disbelief|is]]'' an [[Alternate Universe]]. [[MST3K Mantra|Just go with it.]])</ref>
 
Said traditions were quickly instituted, with subsequent (re)generations turning more and more "Japanese". Gallifrey even saw a substantial increase in the female population, which resulted in women holding various positions among the ruling class. While the Japanese appearances continued, the trends and architecture eventually fell out of favor.
Line 17:
* [[Alternate Universe]]
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Chameleon is far more mobile than her male counterpart.
* [[The Artifact]]: [[Brave Scot|Jamie McCrimmon]], the only human who wasn't changed into an anime character (his appearance is based on ''Who'' photos). He's pretty much the same [[Doctor Who/Recap/S22 E4/E04 The Two Doctors|hairy-legged Highlander]] we know.
* [[Bond Creature]]: The TARDIS has a mental link with the Sensei. Chameleon seems to have a bond as well, since she has apparently been heard singing in the back corridors.
* [[Catch Phrase]]: The website tagline is "''[[Doctor Who]]'' as you've never seen it before."
* [[Captain Ersatz]]: Characters are deliberately borrowed from anime, with some attempt being made to match personalities ([http://www.daresensei.net/what.php?artists notes here]{{Dead link}}). For example (as listed [http://who.daresensei.net/index.php?sensei_0 here]{{Dead link}}), the Doctors are based on:
** Ichi Sensei/First Doctor: [[Yu Yu Hakusho (Manga)|Genkai]].
** Ni Sensei/Second Doctor: [[Jarinko Chie|Takemoto Chie]].
** San Sensei/Third Doctor: [[Candy Candy (Manga)|Candice Audrey]].
** Yon Sensei/Fourth Doctor: [[The Law of Ueki (Manga)|Marilyn Carry]].
** Go Sensei/Fifth Doctor: [[Emily of New Moon|Ilse Burnley]].
** Roku Sensei/Sixth Doctor: [[Fushigiboshi no Futagohime (Anime)|Princess Altessa]].
** Nana Sensei/Seventh Doctor: [[Ranma ½ (Manga)|Saotome Nodoka]].
** Hachi Sensei/Eighth Doctor: [[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Sakaki]] (credited as "Sakaki Hiragana").
** Kyu Sensei/Ninth Doctor: Saotome Ranma (son/daughter of Nodoka).
** Ju Sensei/Tenth Doctor: [[Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl (Manga)|Osaragi Hazumu]].
** Ju Ichi Sensei/Eleventh Doctor: [[Zettai Karen Children (Manga)|Shiho Sannomiya]].
* [[Deliberately Monochrome]]: Memories involving Ichi Sensei. Rather appropriate on the first two occasions, but not so much for the third.
* [[Does Not Understand Sarcasm]]: Chameleon, to Ichigo.
* [[Doppelganger]]: Chameleon seems to enjoy mimicking Tina's appearance, which she doesn't like.
* [[Fiery Redhead]]: Ichi Sensei and Kyu Sensei, the only two redheaded incarnations.
* [[Flash Back]]: So far, the comic has shown brief "clips" of ''[[Doctor Who/Recap/S1 E1/E01 An Unearthly Child|An Unearthly Child]]'', ''[[Doctor Who/Recap/S2 E2/E02 The Dalek Invasion of Earth|The Dalek Invasion Of Earth]]'', ''[[Doctor Who/Recap/S10 E1/E01 The Three Doctors|The Three Doct]]''-er, ''Sensei'', ''[[Doctor Who/Recap/S18 E7/E07 Logopolis|Logopolis]]'', a point presumably between ''Dalek Invasion'' and ''[[Doctor Who/Recap/S2 E3/E03 The Rescue|The Rescue]]'' where Ichi Sensei enters the story proper, and something with Yon Sensei and Meena regarding an erupting volcano. The site also has [http://gallery.daresensei.net/palcomix/doctor910.jpg the last moments]{{Dead link}} from ''[[Doctor Who/NS/Recap/S1 S27/E13 The Parting of the Ways|The Parting Of The Ways]]''.
* [[Gender Flip]]: Relatively few, but still some major players.
** '''Male-To-Female:''' The Doctor, the Master, the Brigadier, and Kamelion.
Line 46:
* [[One Head Taller]]: Jamie, compared to Ni Sensei (who herself is shorter than her ''Who'' counterpart).
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: The Sensei and the Mistress.
* [[Shapeshifter Mode Lock]]: While the TARDIS may look [[Bigger Onon the Inside|pretty much the same]] inside, the exterior is stuck as a Japanese police box.
* [[Shout-Out]]: Considering that 99% of the cast are anime characters (the exceptions being Jamie and Davros), this comes with the package.
