Line 8:
=== Episodes of this series provide examples of: ===
 
* [[A Date Withwith Rosie Palms]] - Shigure attempts this in Episode 1, but, due to censorship, he's resigned to imagining Tohru in a bikini...only she's flat chested!
** Later on it almost becomes a [[Brick Joke]] in Episode 5, with Tohru's cousin's (or Grandpa's) "Fun Time Socks"...
* [[Affectionate Parody]] - Isn't it obvious?
Line 42:
** [[Rocky III|Eye Of The Tiger]] is used frequently for comedic affect, usually in montage form, specifically in Episode 2 and 4.
** I See The Light from ''Tangled'' is used at the end of Episode 5, but this is played straight and dramatic.
** The end of [[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|Paris Burning]] is used when a overly dramatic scene pops up.
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]] - All of Kyo and Yuki's fights. Kyo is always crushed.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]] - Yuki is this trope, and Uo has shades of it.
* [[Deus Ex Machina]] - Lampshaded in Episode 4.
* [[Devil in Plain Sight]] - Hana, right down to [[The Omen|Ave Satani]] playing when she appears.
* [[Dude, She's Like, in Aa Coma]] - In the very first episode, Shigure almost takes advantage of Tohru. Yuki even compares it to the [[End of Evangelion]].
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]] - Constantly in Episode 5, and is even referenced by name!
* [[Grumpy Old Man]] - Don't take Grandpa's Fun Time Socks...
Line 58:
* [[Lampshade Hanging]] - Yuki IS this trope.
* [[Larynx Dissonance]] - Also averted. The guys play guys, and the girls play girls. The only exception is Yuki.
* [[Leaning Onon the Fourth Wall]] - The series hasn't broken it yet...but they're all aware they're a show, and reference it frequently...
* [[Les Yay]] - Uo and Hana unabashedly ask Tohru for lesbian sex in Episode 6.
* [[Lovable Sex Maniac]] - Subverted in that Shigure has all the qualities, but all the characters, save for Tohru, want to kill him.
Line 72:
* [[Shout-Out]] - Several of Kyo's lines consists of some shonen or mecha reference, most notably either [[Gurren Lagann]], [[Dragonball Z]], or [[G Gundam]].
** Additionally, Tohru has a habit of stealing food from [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Shinji Ikari]]...
** ''[[Men in Black (Filmfilm)|Men in Black]]'''s "flashy thing" is compared to Hatori's mind erasing power.
** There's an entire gag about [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]] in Episode 2.
** Apparently, Haru keeps mistaking Kyo for some guy named Kakarot.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]] - Yuki thinks that Tohru is one of these initially, not to mention the entire Prince Yuki Fan Club IS this trope.
** Also, Kagura, seeing as how she stalks Kyo obsessively too.
* [[Yandere]]: Kagura is a mild form of this, even in the Abridged universe.
