Kämpfer: Difference between revisions

 

[http://www.starchild.co.jp/special/kenpu/new/ A set of two OVAs] under the title ''Kämpfer für die Liebe'' ("Kampfer: Fight for Love") were released in spring of 2011. The first is a kind of sequel to the series and the second is pure [[Fan Service|waitress fanservice]]

{{tropelist}}

* [[Actor Allusion]]: In Fur die Liebe, due to Shizuku calling for both Natsuru's, [[Marina Inoue|Natsuru]] then goes back and forth as female Natsuru, normal self, [[Rio -Rainbow Gate!-|Rio]], [[Maria Holic|Matsurika]] and [[Getsumen to Heiki Mina|Mina]].

** On the main series, they say one to the plushies "Hey! You sound like [[Nana Mizuki]] / [[Yukari Tamura]]!

* [[Dogged Nice Guy|Dogged Nice Girl]]: Akane, Shizuku and Mikoto to male Natsuru, and Kaede to female Natsuru. See [[All Love Is Unrequited]] above.

* [[Don't Try This At Home]]: "Good boys should ignore the crazy lady." "Bad boys should ignore the crazy lady too."

* [[Dynamic Entry]]: Mikoto has one during episode 8. In a possible [[Shout-Out]] to [[Haruhi Suzumiya]], Natsuru suffers a kick to the head from her, which also sends him flying.

* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: In episode 5, {{spoiler|four Entrails Animals are thrown to the audience of the play. The unnamed background characters who recieve them reappear several episodes later as named White Kämpfers.}}

* [[Even the Girls Want Her]]: Episode 3 ''loves'' this trope; upon female Natsuru's arrival to the girl's side, the collective reaction of her new female classmates is to perform what is essentially a large, simultaneous group-glomp. Following that, the remainder of the episode features nothing but the rest of the school's female population depravedly fawning over her, with a few even going so far as to capture her and tie her up so they so they could play with her as much as they wanted. Natsuru, you lucky son of a bitch.

* [[Everything's Better with Penguins]]: Especially a tsundere penguin.

** Episode 8: [[Hell Girl|Ippenshindemiru?]] Of course, to drive the point home, [[Mamiko Noto]] gets to say it.

** Episode 9: Akane mentions that her brother (exact word: aniki) once told her "[[Gurren Lagann|Believe in the me who believes in myself]]". Natsuru also looks like [http://i46.tinypic.com/2w2mzw7.jpg Kamina] during [[Imagine Spot|Akane's dream]].

** The [["On the Next..."|next episode previews]] deserve special mentioning:

*** Episode 02: [[Star Wars|"Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away..."]]; Natsuru as Luke, Harakiri Tora as Obi Wan, and Shizuku as Darth Vader/Emperor Palpatine.
