Miyuki-Chan in Wonderland
Poor Miyuki-chan is Late for School. As she hurries down the street, a girl in a bunny outfit skateboards by. The bunny girl enters a portal, and Miyuki-chan falls in. It's like Wonderland, except with an entirely female cast and being significantly more perverted (in more of a Fan Service style, as opposed to being pornographic). After a series of misadventures, Miyuki-chan wakes up, is late for school, and as she hurries down the street, a girl in a bunny outfit skateboards by.
The next part involves her getting sucked into the looking glass. Similar craziness ensues.
And that was just the Anime version. The Manga version has even more adventures for her as Miyuki keeps dreaming Homoerotic Dream after Homoerotic Dream.
The standard Miyuki-chan adventure goes like this:
- Miyuki is doing some mundane task or viewing some fiction.
- Things start getting a lot stranger. Miyuki will likely be sucked into the fiction.
- If it hasn't already, the world becomes much Hotter and Sexier. Les Yay abounds.
- Miyuki protests most or all of what's happening.
- Miyuki wakes up.
- Some evidence shows up that it wasn't just a dream or she's still in the dream.
Probably CLAMP's most titillating work ever (at least one that was deliberate).
Tropes used in Miyuki-Chan in Wonderland include:
- Adaptation Distillation: Just covers the first couple chapters.
