Line 55:
* ''[[Toradora!]]'' deconstructs many of the character archetypes seen in typical [[Harem Anime]]. Taiga answers the question of what kind of experiences could give a person a childish tsundere personality in real life.
* ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'' brutally deconstructs many of the most beloved [[Magical Girl]] tropes. Namely: the mascot, the henshin item, and the "perks".
** On the contrary, ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'' takes tropes from older Magical Girl titles such as ''[[Magical Princess Minky Momo]]'' and ''[[Shamanic Princess]]'', and plays them straight. It only looks like a deconstruction to younger (under 30) viewers because it builds on what were previously [[Unbuilt Trope]]s... which makes it a [[Reconstruction]].
* ''[[Code Geass]]'' has Kururugi Suzaku as an effective deconstruction of [[Lawful Good]] characters such as Amuro Ray in ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]''.
* ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''. Boy howdy.
Line 61 ⟶ 62:
* ''Secret Plot'' and [[Meaningful Name|"Secret Plot Deep"]] initially/ostensibly comes off as another [[Hot for Teacher]] / [[Hot for Student]] H-manga series about [[Hot Teacher|hot teachers]] and the various boys they seduce, specifically [[Biggus Dickus|Masaki]] ''then'' it sets in how much of a [[Crapsack World]] they live in:
* ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]]'' is widely regarded as the first deconstruction of the Magical Girl genre, at the same time it deconstructs various fairy tale archetypes including the prince, the princess, and the witch.
