{{quote|''New science teacher, Machiko Mai, is a young and attractive woman with healthy mind and body. Being around her makes everyone happy. Students like to play practical jokes on her, but no matter how many times they cause troubles, she does not get upset. She always tries hard to understand her students.''|Studio Pierrot's description of the series}}
 
''[[Maicchingu'''Maicching Machiko Sensei]]-sensei''''' is a series that could be best described as a loose compilation of [[Fan Service]] or [[Ecchi]], starring a female schoolteacher and her pervy students. It aired in [[The Eighties]] in Japan as a [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|kids']] [[Parent Service|show.]] It had a lot of controversy with the [[Moral Guardians]] but somehow managed to survive.
 
Machiko Mai, a young and inexperienced teacher, is taking her first job as a teacher to a group of elementary students. Unfortunately (for her), Machiko's students, leadled by resident troublemaker Kenta, think it's utterly hilarious to grope her, flip her skirt, or find new and exciting ways to get rid of her clothing. Even worse, the very universe itself seems to think it's funny too; despite her best efforts, almost every adventure ends up with her at least slightly humiliated (ie: stripped to her bare ''pantsu'' if not completely naked).
 
Add a cast of ninnies and perverts, a standard children's show plot, and you have one of the most infamous [[Ecchi]] series in history.
 
It is finally{{when}} getting an English release, 30 years after the manga started, courtesy of [http://rgfansub.wordpress.com/2010/10/20/maicchingu-machiko-sensei-1-an/ Anime-RG].

{{tropelist}}
* [[Action Girl]]: Despite being a victim of a ''lot'' of pranks, Machiko often gives back as much as she takes. She's more athletic than the rest of the staff (including the phys ed teachers), able to pick up skills like skateboarding in one or two tries, and knows martial arts of some kind -- several episodes involve her beating the crap out of someone who goes too far. (One memorable instance of this involved her breasts popping free from her shirt from a thief who had taken her as a hostage, which she used as a the start of a breast-and-karate-chop combo.)
* [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]]: Averted; see [[Nipple-and-Dimed]] below. The "Box" mangas went even farther, with Machiko's naughy bits being non-explicitly visible a few times.
* [[All Men Are Perverts]]: The entire school seems to be perverted.
* [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]]: Averted; see [[Nipple-and-Dimed]] below. The "Box" mangas went even farther, with Machiko's naughynaughty bits being non-explicitly visible a few times.
* [[Beach Episode]]: Of course.
* [[Because Destiny Says So]]: It does not matter how, it does not matter where, it does not matter when -- somehow, someway, Machiko ''will'' lose her clothing, usually in the most humiliating way possible.
* [[EveryBest OneKnown Remembersfor the StripperFanservice]]: Obviously, the main point of this series was fanservice so it's easy to overlook the fact that the show involved episodes about a [[Haunted House]], [[Sea Monster]], and more than a few episodes where Machiko and her students [[They Fight Crime|take on criminals]].
* [[Big Ball of Violence]]: One episode ends with all the characters getting into a fight with this effect. And, of course, [[Once an Episode|Machiko loses her top in the melee]].
* [[Body Paint]]: A couple of instances of this in the manga. [[Played for Laughs]], of course. It would have [[Comically Missing the Point|helped]] if Kenta's plan hadn't involved ''painting Machiko solid [[Blackface|black]]'' (instead of, say, trying to paint clothing or somesuch).
Line 30:
* [[Dogged Nice Guy]]: Yamagata-sensei, who frequently ends up getting mixed up with the student's plans, and [[Cannot Spit It Out]] about his attraction towards Machiko.
* [[Ecchi]]: One of the first TV Ecchi series. Relatively tame by today's standards, it still manages to do some things that would simply not fly on Japanese TV today -- like showing animated nipples<ref>(Although it could be said the censoring isn't for any particularly moral reasons, but to create [[DVD Bonus Content]].)</ref>. ''In the opening credits.'' ''[[Doraemon]]'', which was shown around the same era, was the same way (kids' show, mild [[Fan Service]] -- and infamously, the rename added [[Censor Steam]], amongst other things.
* [[Every One Remembers the Stripper]]: Obviously, the main point of this series was fanservice so it's easy to overlook the fact that the show involved episodes about a [[Haunted House]], [[Sea Monster]], and more than a few episodes where Machiko and her students [[They Fight Crime|take on criminals]].
* [[Fan Service]]: If you took out all of the fanservice, there would be very little of the series left.
** Although in some episodes, the fanservice honestly comes completely out of nowhere. For instance, at the end of one episode, a student [[All Cloth Unravels|pulls a thread on her sweater]] and exposes her in a skating rink, all within the last 15 seconds of the show. It was a typical cartoon up until that last moment.
*** Said sweater gag was used in the first live -action movie -- Machiko's crochet-like sweater gets a single thread snagged while at home, and by the time she makes the full run to her classroom, her shirt is gone.
* [[Flanderization]]: Machiko, particularly in the manga, ''particularly'' in the "Box" series of bonus comics the author released. Machiko goes from being a somewhat naive, good natured young teacher who accidentally gets stripped and groped a lot to being easy to talk into stripping ''herself'', and who often [[Innocent Fanservice Girl|doesn't even notice anything's wrong unless someone points it out to her,]] (and even then, she is more bemused than anything else).
* [[Freeze-Frame Bonus]]: One [[YouTube]] user noticed that while a guy was trying to pull a [[Naughty Tentacles|Naughty Tentacle]] octopus off of Machicko, you could see detailed nipples (Well MORE detailed nipples considering the series had no qualms with them) when the swimsuit was almost completely off. [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|Kids' show!]]
