Maicching Machiko-sensei: Difference between revisions

{{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.)

* [[All Men Are Perverts]]: The entire school seems to be perverted.

* [[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.

* [[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).

* [[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.

* [[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.

* [[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!]]
