Lucky Star/WMG: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

 

She feels right at home cosplaying Haruhi, has perfected her voice, and is in character at work. In her regular life, she categorizes her friends in terms of [[Anime Character Types]], finds it perfectly acceptable to do things that only outrageous comedy characters can get away with, and is treated as a "legendary girl" of immense power by the bookstore owner in the same way the SOS-dan fears Haruhi. Also, look at her Haruhi ringtone -- it's not "God Knows" or "Bouken Deshou Deshou?", the usual songs. Haruhi was embarrassed about her performance of "God Knows" and obviously wouldn't know her own theme song. Instead, Konata's ringtone is "Koi no Mikuru Densetsu", from the student film that Haruhi was immensely proud of and no one else liked. The reason that Konata/Haruhi is so obsessed with ''[[Suzumiya Haruhi]] no Yuuutsu'' is because she has found her true self in the series and wants to immerse herself in the life she's supposed to lead as much as she can.

 

** Unless Haruhi decided to reset the calendar as well.

* Taking it further, ''Haruhi is what Konata would have been, if her mother had not died''.

*** It's interesting, actually. The possibility that Konata turned to games and anime after her mother died, instead of becoming God. It's actually quite common for people to turn inward when someone close to them dies.

 

== The shrine at which Tsukasa and Kagami work [[Sealed Evil in a Can|contains some evil spirit]]. ==

Hey, [[Creepy Twins|twins are magic]], right? Miko twins must be doubly so. They (or possibly just Kagami - Tsukasa's a bit too ditzy) have been sworn to secrecy about this evil spirit and must one day defeat it if it gets out, in which case [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_aMcB57hPM this] is the world's only hope.

* It must be [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Oyashiro-sama]], then. >_>

* Or they're the next Twin Shrine Maidens that will go to [[Fatal Frame|The Hellish Abyss]]. Meaning one twin will kill the other soon. Say, which twin ''is'' older?

** ...Konami?

*** We also refer to them as "Contra Code."

* ...

* [[Better Than Canon|The fans demand it]].

*** Well, Tsukasa's reaction to ''that'' does not seem like something [[Cloudcuckoolander|she]] would have if all Kagami really meant was {{spoiler|cosplay}}, I mean she saw Konata and Patty work and didn't really have anything to say about it.

*** It would be a bit of a surprise for ''Kagami'' of all people to start showing interest in cosplay, whether or not she's in love with Konata.

**** Nah. Don't make them the 'official couple.' It's more interesting if they have other SOs and just enjoy each other on the side.

**** Dunno about Konata, but for this Troper, that would be major [[Character Derailment]] of Kagami.

*** This Troper is a bit of a [[Comedic Sociopathy|Comedic Sociopath]], and likes to view the romantic situation this way: Kagami has a crush on Konata, who can't decide between Kagami and Miyuki...who's the only [[Straight Man|Straight Girl]] here ([[Incredibly Lame Pun|ha freakin' ha]].) Don't know where Tsukasa fits in, though she might have a slight siscon for Kagami (see further below).

** This seems to be the truth in a way. Kagami apparently likes Konata, but Konata is straight.

* In one of manga vol. 5's [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|fourth-wall-breaking]] Kadokawa Hot Line strips, Konata says that ''Lucky Star'' needs romance, and...

'''Kagami''': Now I'm even '''more against it!''' What do you mean, "It's cool!" }}

 

* I suppose Yutaka doesn't know it yet, then.

* This theory is advanced by the doujinshi "Lucky Point: Summer", which is largely about Kagami finding out about it.

* At least [[Tropers/Sam Curt|This Troper]] won't reject this hypothesis. It certainly explains why she wasn't a single bit annoyed with her 4'8", flat-chested body (compare with Yutaka who is rather self-conscious about that). Only a person who is coping well with some disease can treat it it has been happened.

** She's been shown as being bothered by it, though maybe this discovery shoved that concern aside. Perhaps in order to keep her friends from worrying about her impending death and bringing everybody down, she lies and says that "a line from a game" made her feel better about her body... thus shifting their worries to something more lighthearted.

** While it isn't on television in the US so far as I know, it was released on DVD.

* So that's why no one makes an [[Abridged Series]] of it? Well, this troper will be the first.

* There is in fact a Lucky Star Abridged Series out now. That crunching sound you heard was [[Divide by Zero|the universe returning to singularity form]].

 

*** Actually, it's better if Nagato is Minami, because they're both [[The Quiet One|quiet]]. And Koizumi might as well be Miyuki, if we're going personality wise.

**** The Nagato-Minami things is not new, due to [[Hey, It's That Voice!|having the same seiyuu]]. Not to say Minami was said to be having the most book smarts in her circle.

 

== [[Family Guy|Brian and Stewie]] are [[The Multiverse|Multiverse]] versions of Konata and Kagami. ==

* Tsukasa is Osaka ([[Cloudcuckoolander]], flat-chested) minus the [[Kansai Regional Accent]]

* Miyuki is a [[Composite Character|composite]] of Yomi's [[Meganekko]] and Chiyo’s [[The Smart Guy|encyclopedic knowledge]].

* Minami is Sakaki ([[The Quiet One]], [[Huge Schoolgirl]], both are from rich families, unhappy about the size of their chest, albeit from opposite ends of the spectrum, and have the same kind of relation with Yutaka/Chiyo), minus the [[Animals Hate Him|Animals Hate Her]] and athletic ability.

** No minus athletic here either, one needs to see her [[Chronic Hero Syndrome|skills at being a helper]] in the recent volumes.

* Misao is Kagura ([[Bokukko]]), <s> minus the athletism</s>.

** No need to "minus;" Misao is actually athletic, [[All There in the Manual|based on character sketches]].

* Hiyori is Kaorin ([[Romantic Two-Girl Friendship]]) with Sakaki's [[Animals Hate Him|Animals Hate Her]]

* Ayano is Chihiro ([[Satellite Character]])

 

== ''Lucky Star'' is a post-Instrumentality rewrite of ''Azumanga Daioh'' ==

 

== Tsukasa is Existentialist. ==

** Patricia Martin and Sojiro Izumi are both connected to Power Rangers by voice actors, which is connected to Kari in a shout out in Digimon: The Movie, which is connected...you guessed it, back to Lucky star with Misao.

** The Nagato-Minami things is not new, due to [[Hey, It's That Voice!|having the same seiyuu]]. Not to say Minami was said to be having the most book smarts in her circle.

** Tsukasa has many Mikuru aspects though, like the cooking/cleaning trait, and the pushover personality.

* Miyuki of Lucky Star is a dead reference; it's Akira Kogami and Mikuru from Haruhi who share voice actors.

* Shiraishi of Lucky Star and Taniguchi of Haruhi have the theorized connections.

* Yutaka of Lucky Star is a loose connection to Emeri Kimidori of Haruhi.

* Tamara of Lucky Star and Mimi of Digimon Adventure - Loosely connected.

The clues are out there.

== [[Keroro Gunsou|Sgt. Frog]] is the hidden mascot of a huge conspiracy in the world of Lucky Star. ==

It's the aliens. They're mind-control devices! That's why it's on the cell phone strap, and the backpack clip, and a bunch of stuffed animals! The cell phone increases the power while holding it to the side of your head, the backpack clip/purse deco clip is within a couple feet of your head for a couple hours or several hours each day, and the stuffed animals broadcast subliminal messages to your dreams as you sleep! It's got to be stopped!

** [[Stealth Pun|Hahaha... Stealth]]

* This show may not be directly produced by Bandai, but its references to Gundam are.

 

== Kagami and Tsukasa are Len and Rin, respectively. ==

#. Tsukasa bears a striking resemblance to Rin.

#. The fact that Kagami means "mirror", and is one character off from "Kagamine"

Now there's just the question of whether he has a skeleton, or whether his physiology is like that of, say, an [[Everything's Squishier with Cephalopods|octopus]].

 

{{spoiler|This is why no one remembers her (or vice versa) when she's introduced as a "new" character in volume 7.}}

* {{spoiler|So is Patricia actually in a coma and projecting her spirit into the country where she was most happy...or perhaps even dead with [[Unfinished Business]]? Konata did actually say "she's got nowhere to go". Nowhere in the living world, that is.}}

 

== Konata bothers Kagami so much because she knows Kagami has a crush on her. ==

== Lucky Star is actually what goes on in between scenes or seasons in a Magical girl show. ==

* This could also explain the weird hair colors since most slice of Life animes don't have those.

* Also why Konata is the only one who is interested in videogames and manga, they get enough of that in real life.

*** As I have written on the main article years ago, all the Hiiragi girls have a [[Religious And Mythology Theme Naming]] going on-- on a Christian analogy, their names would be "prayer," "mass," "grail," and "priest." There's at least nothing to speculate on the name alone.
