Ookami-san: Difference between revisions

* [[Boy Meets Girl]]: {{spoiler|The ploy Machiko tried to use to get Ryoshi to fall for her, complete with [[Panty Shot]] advertising.}}

* [[Breather Episode]]: Episodes 7 and 12, which follow some fairly serious drama episodes.

** Is there a stigma in the anime world between this trope and [[Black Lagoon|those names]]?

* [[Buxom Is Better]]: Disciplinary Committee Chairman Momoko Kibitsu is revered mostly for her "talents".

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Majolica.

* [[CPR Clean Pretty Reliable]]: Done in Episode 9 between {{spoiler|Ringo and Shirayuki}}, since it's a [[Pool Episode]]. It's actually kinda [[Narm|narmy]].

* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: Ryoko gets one in the beginning, and later Shiro delivers one to Ryoshi, but the fight is interrupted before they can finish it after Ryoshi manages to land a powerful blow on Shiro.

* [[Cuteness Proximity]]: If the [[Improbable Weapon User|deceptively adorable cat boxing gloves]] didn't cue you in, then her absolute ''deredere'' breakdown in the presence of the dogs in episode 2 should have made it clear that Okami-san ''loves'' cute things.

* [[Distressed Damsel]]: Averted. While the delinquents in Episode 2 have kidnapped and bound Ryoko, she's not sitting still and waiting for a rescue. We see her actively trying to cut her own ropes before the rest of the team show up to lend a hand.

** Played straight in episode 12.

{{quote| '''The Narrator:''' Now children, Urashima-san transforms into a man-amongst-men whenever Ryuguu-san [[Squick|"extracts his essence"]] from him.}}

* [[Dragged Into Drag]]: When Otsu falls sick, everyone offers to help her for the day by dressing up in [[Meido]] costumes...even the boys. Though Liszt didn't mind.

* [[Easy Amnesia]]: While trying to save a [[Cat Up a Tree]], Ryoko loses her memory of the past few years, reverting back to age 13. She's normal by the end of the episode.

* [[Empathic Environment]]: Ryoshi and Shiro have a dramatic confrontation in the middle of the rain.

* [[Everyone Can See It]]: Nearly everyone in the club gets a smirk on their face when Ryoshi and Ryoko are near each other.

* {{spoiler|[[Evil Former Friend|Evil Former Boyfriend]]: It's implied that Ryoko and Hitsujikai had something going until the whole attempted rape thing.}}

* [[Hair Antennae]]: Chuutaro Nezumi has them in the shape of mouse ears. Alice also sports an ant-like pair.

* [[Handsome Lech]]: Taro. He has a "perfect gentleman" persona that only emerges when Otohime "extracts his essence".

** And Mimi Usami? She's [[Rie Kugimiya|TEH RIE]]! She is not lovable in any way though.

** Introduced in episode 5 is Shiro Hitsujikai, who certainly sounds like a [[Junichi Suwabe|certain]] [[Fate Stay Night|Archer-class servant]].

* [[Hit Stop]]: In Ryoshi and Shiro's fight.

* [[Hope Spot]]: {{spoiler|Ryoshi had one during his fight with Shiro when he thought about why he was fighting and what Saburo said to him before the fight.}}

* [[Hypercompetent Sidekick]]: Though Liszt is nominally the president, it's Alice who does all the work.

* [[Identity Amnesia]]: {{spoiler|Ryoko has an interesting variation of this in episode 7 where she reverts back to her pre-assault persona.}}

** Interestingly, even the narrator is surprised at some of what happens, as is Ringo, who outright believes she must be hallucinating.

* [[Improbable Aiming Skills]]: Ryoshi.

* [[I Owe You My Life]]: Otsu is incredibly determined to pay back debts to people, for good reason. Though Ryoshi didn't want her becoming his live-in maid either.

* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: Mimi Usami.

* [[Mary Suetopia]]: Otogibana City and Otogi Academy are set up to provide a secluded environment where the students can better themselves and use their free will, but Onigashima High was placed there to provide an idea of the negative outside forces the real world has.

* [[Massive Numbered Siblings]]: Himeno and her seven younger brothers and sisters. {{spoiler|Though it would total eight, if you counted Ringo.}}

* [[Meaningful Name]]: [[Theme Naming]] is also present, with everyone's names drawing from the fairy tale that provides their motif.

* [[Ojou]]: Otohime, the daughter of a large and powerful corporation.

* [[Older Than They Look]]: Ringo is a high schooler, but looks much younger.

* [[Bokukko|Orekko]]: Ryoko fits both the "masculine pronoun" and "tomboyish appearance" parts of the trope.

* [[Gondor Calls for Aid|Otogi Bank Calls For Aid]]: Liszt called in some of the favors the Bank had raked up in the request sale to get some back-up at the Big Battle at Onigashima High Part Two.

* [[Pettanko]]: Both Ringo and Ryoko. It's the one thing that always gets a rise out of them, and is responsible for the narrator getting punched.

* [[Pet the Dog]]: Quite literally for Ryoko.

* [[Product Placement]]: Hitsujikai's computer seems to have Windows 7 onboard, even with recognizable Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player icons on taskbar and also network, sound and alerts tray icons. Liszt is also seen with an Ipad.

* [[Promotion to Parent]]: Himeno had this happen to her somewhere in the past.

* [[Punch Punch Punch Uh Oh]]: Happens when Ryoko punches the delinquent boss in the second episode.

** And again when Ryoshi punches the same guy in episode 5.

* [[Sweet Tooth]]: Majolica.

* [[Teenage Wasteland]]: Essentially Onigashima High School, complete with dust flying around and decrepit walls filled with graffiti.

* [[There Are No Adults]]: Well technically there are, but they're pretty nonexistent. Otherwise one would have to wonder how all these fights happen in the first place. Especially at Onigashima High School.

* [[Tomboy]]: Ryoko is one of the more extreme examples of this trope -- her syntax and Japanese grammar is ''completely'' masculine, up to and including using the coarse-masculine pronoun of "ore" (as opposed to the feminine "watashi" and "atashi") when referring to herself.

* [[Training From Hell]]: Failure to dodge Saburo's assaults in training result in being kicked with ''steel-toed boots''.

** The three Tonda brothers, aka the [[Three Little Pigs]], invoke this trope with -bu and -buhi, then subvert it when the third one speaks normally.

* [[Whip It Good]]: Momoko.

* [[Wholesome Crossdresser]]: You'd never know it, but Liszt is damn good at crossdressing. He even has a disturbingly good female voice for just such an occasion, and was good enough to [[Even the Guys Want Him|get the judo team on a group date with him.]]

** It's no wonder since said female voice is acted out by the seiyuu of [[K-On!|Ritsu]]
