Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • "Here Sakamoto, Have Some Gum."
  • Manga chapter 9, a dialogueless attempt by Mio and Yuuko to build a house of cards that predictably ends in disaster. Mio weeps as if someone died.
    • Anime episode 17 adds orchestral music and Nano threatening to push over the cards with sleepy nose bubble.
  • The entire deer vs principal fighting scene. Never before has the fight of Man vs. Deer looked this epic.
  • Nano's dilemma with the cockroach under the bowl. The way she processes the situation in her thoughts is so much like your average action anime scene, with all the drama of having to disarm a bomb. It only gets funnier once Sakamoto shows up.

Sakamoto: How am I supposed to get it if you don't lift the bowl?
Nano: Lift it yourself!
Sakamoto: How am I supposed to do that?!

  • Any time Mai trolls Yuuko. Seriously.
    • Episode 4 is particularly epic in this respect.
  • Sakamoto's first words, and the events leading up to them.
  • This little scene in episode 5
  • The death of Dolph.
  • Any of Nakamura's failed attempts to kidnap Nano.
  • The popcorn scene in Episode 8.
  • Invincible aliens are immune to any and all attacks!
  • Any time Yuuko think she's doing something right, only for it to backfire immediately, and her off-the-wall reactions to it. Happens Once an Episode at least!
  • On episode 12, Yukko's face after discovering she doesn't have money in her wallet is just hilarious.
    • Also episode 12, Sakurai and the clerk at the coffee shop have a complete communication breakdown. Awkwardness ensues.
  • Episode 15: The whole sequence where Takasaki-sensei is completely confused and breaks down over Sakurai-sensei's and a student's relationship. He was actually her brother
  • Episode 16: Yuuko meets the Professor. Doubles as a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming because of how cute they and their interactions are.
    • Mio goes berserk when her Covert Pervert drawings get exposed and in the process of trying to collect them all attacks a cop, Yuuko, Oh Gentleman, and Sasahara's goat.
  • Episode 17: Nakamura-sensei's Pit Trap gets Nakanojo instead of the desired Nano. What does she do? Pull out an electric trimmer and shave off his mohawk.
  • Episode 18: Yuuko is playing one of those crane games. She has the toy firmly grasped in the claw and proceeds to bring it up... only for the claw to suddenly break off mid-ascension. Her face right afterwards is priceless.
    • Nakamura-sensei pours some paralytic powder into a cup of coffee, notices it's gonna overflow, promptly sips the excess coffee.
    • Yuuko is riding the train to a neighboring town to get to a Daiku Burger restaurant where she was supposed to meet with Mai. However, she keeps embarrassing herself, causing a little girl (A certain Tsundere's little sister, to be exact) to keep laughing at her. She eventually takes Yuuko to the DB, where she meets up with Mai, dressed in a full medieval armor. Believing it was Halloween, Yuuko grabs a pair of funny glasses and fake nose from her bag, puts them on, and says "Trick or treat". Misato then remarks how Halloween ended a week ago, while her sister is laughing so hard she's banging on the table.
    • In a random and surprisingly beautiful segment from "Helvetica Standard", a young woman is trying to get to an old library to find a book that she had read in her childhood. She eventually finds that book, and sits down to read it. She opens it... and finds a gun inside.
  • Episode 19: Mio attempting to jump over a pole. After a long Inner Monologue you're expecting a Crowning Moment of Awesome...instead, she jumps and nails Yuuko in the stomach with a headbutt. Yuuko tackles her as well so she lands on the mat.
  • Episode 20: Yukko's helping Mio with her manga, and grabs a mechanical pencil. She tries to click it... from the wrong end. Her scream explodes through the house, out into space and blasts through all of the planets (And Pluto).
  • Episode 22: What Nano wants as Christmas presents.
  • Episode 23: Sakurai-sensei finds her brother's porn magazine. Hilarity Ensues.
  • The Helvetica Standard from Episode 24: A girl convinces her friend to tell her the name of the boy she likes, promising one million yen if she reveals the secret. Immediately after being told, the girl tells the entire class and then plops down a stack of bills on her friend's desk.
  • Episode 25: Nakamura-sensei discovers the Shinonome Lab. Her paranoia promptly runs amok.
  • On the fan-made side of things, this video features the second opening of the anime set to the theme for Game of Thrones. In the poster's own words: "This shouldn't work."
