Line 5:
(''a.k.a. Frenzied Family Diary'', or ''Diary of a Crazed Family'')
A thousand years ago, En'''ka''', an evil dragon thing, was defeated, but died cursing that its child would [[The End of the World
The Top Six "Most Likely To Destroy The World":
Line 18:
In addition to those character types, ''KKN'' uses the following tropes:
* [[A
* [[A God Am I]] - Kyouka constantly [[Third Person Person|refers to herself]] as a goddess to be worshiped and obeyed without question. ''Constantly''. But that's just her ego talking.
* [[Anime Theme Song]] - There are '''[[Credits Jukebox|eight]]''' endings, [[Image Song|one for each member of the family]]. These are randomly shuffled around the various stations broadcasting the show.
Line 45:
* [[Dysfunction Junction]] - ''Everyone'' comes with a [[Dark and Troubled Past|dark past]], as Kyouka and Ouka discuss when Ouka starts looking over the backgrounds of his new children.
* [[Engaging Conversation]] - Raichou, after tasting a dessert Pierre made.
* [[The End of the World
* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: Raichou is seen [[Funny Background Event|in the background]] in every episode up to 13.
* [[Everything's Better
* [[Expy]] - Senko, as a [[Rozen Maiden|Suigintou]] wannabe, before losing the Gothic outfit and becoming {{spoiler|Chika}}. [[Mind Control|You are now imagining her calling Yuuka "junk".]]
* [[Fantastic Voyage]] - In an attempt to cure Ouka of ancient [[Nanomachines]], everyone but Yuka shrinks down and travels inside his body to fight them off. Ginka goes [[Guns Akimbo]] while in there.
Line 59:
* [[Hot Springs Episode]]
* [[I Am Spartacus]] - Done in the final episode {{spoiler|when Kyouka is possessed by Water}}. Everyone claims to be the true Great Destroyer. Even Chika tries to get in on it even though she ''definitely'' isn't the true child of Enka.
* [[Jerk
* [[Karma Houdini]] - Dr. Gebok, a cyborg [[Mad Scientist]] who [[Moral Event Horizon|Crossed The Line]] in Hyouka's backstory ({{spoiler|bringing in a girl to be his one and only friend and then tricking Hyouka into killing her to break him of his pacifism}}) and wrecks all kinds of havoc in the present, is treated as a comical figure and never gets off worse than [[Out of Sight, Out of Mind|being blasted off like Team Rocket]].
** Chika also has some of this, since she does get off rather well for {{spoiler|torturing Yuka for most of her life}}.
Line 71:
* [[Mars Needs Women]] - Episode 11 tells the story of Hyouka falling in love with a human girl.
* [[Maybe Ever After]] - At the end of the series, {{spoiler|Ginka and Chika}} [[Your Mileage May Vary|appear to be on a date]].
* [[Minion
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood]] - "Pierre". In a bit of a subversion, Pierre reveals to Ouka later on that he doesn't mind the name. Since Kyouka assigned it, not like there's much room to challenge it anyhow. Also played straight with Yuka's classmate Yamaguchi. No matter how much she tries, she just can't get his name right.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]] - Kyouka's [[Jerkass]] attitude turn Mujaki from a [[The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything|nice pirate]] into a ruthless one.
* [[Not Blood Siblings]] - Chika's love for Ginka.
* [[Nurse
* [[Official Couple]] - {{spoiler|Kyouka and Ouka, of course.}} Takes them as few as 5 episodes.
{{quote| {{spoiler|'''Ouka''':}} And I do like you. Did you not see that?<br />
Line 92:
* [[Secret Project Refugee Family]] - The premise of the show, more or less.
* [[Shinigami]] - Ouka has one as an [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]]. She also has sisters. This seems to be a title for Monster Slayers in Ouka's organization. Specifically individuals who have slain a thousand monsters earn the title of "Shinigami" and the right to wear the hanya mask that signifies that status.
* [[Shipper
* [[Ship Tease]]: {{spoiler|[[Like an Old Married Couple|Kyouka and Ouka]] are pretty much the [[Official Couple]], [[Sickeningly Sweethearts|Hyouka and Kiriko]] blush around each other frequently, Yamaguchi has an obvious crush on Yuuka, [[Childhood Friend Romance|Madara]] is in love with [[Oblivious to Love|Teika]], the cat girl and waiter have kissed, and [[Victorious Childhood Friend|Chika]] and Ginka were last seen in a very date-like atmosphere.}}
* [[Shout-Out]] - Quite a few Western movies, for example, the pirate episode had {{spoiler|Gekka}} turning giant, singing a nursery rhyme, and pulling a ship down in an obvious rendition of the second ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]'' movie.
** There is also a blatant one to ''[[
* [[Something Completely Different]] - Episode 12, "Picked up a Cat on Monday" plays like something out of an [[Eroge]], with only Ginka and Kyouka making appearances...and Ginka's in drag the whole time. Episode 20, "The Forest of Vitamin C" is a complete and total [[Mind Screw]] from start to finish.
* [[Super Window Jump]] - Ouka and Kyouka jump through a window in their hurry to get to the balcony.
Line 108:
* [[Viewer Gender Confusion]] - There is some difference in opinion about Pierre's actual gender. (In the manga, he tells Kyouka he's male.)
* [[Wave Motion Gun]] - Hyouka is armed with a really, really big one that comes in quite handy.
* [[What Happened to
* [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?]]? - It's the question Oasis came to Earth to find out. Chika and Madara end up giving her the completely wrong impression of what love is. And then there's Kyouka's tendency to base her "love" on whatever she sees in TV and manga...
* [[Whip It Good]] - Chika, in her continuing attempts to get Ginka to act manly, pulls out a whip. [[Too Kinky to Torture|He likes it.]]
