Line 9:
* [[Absurdly Powerful Student Council]]: Averted. The student council has enough power to oversee student affairs and make sure that the school's image is kept moral.
* [[Adults Are Useless]]: They were the ones who allowed the current state of affairs to happen in the first place. And the ones critical of it, like the father of the terrorist Blue Snow simply kept quiet, allowing the madness to continue unabated.
* [[Bad Future]]: The whole series is set in one, where [[Moral Guardians]] and Political Correctness had already won the day over society.
* [[Big Brother Is Watching]]: In addition to the ever-present [[Moral Guardians]], the Peace Maker devices monitor a person's every single action for ''anything'' deemed illegal.
* [[But Not Too Foreign]]: Anna, who's implied to be of Western ancestry.
* [[Crap Saccharine World]]: Everything looks orderly, peaceful and ''moral'' on the surface. Never mind the authoritarian censorship, people having to wear Peace Makers at all times or the [[Unfortunate Implications]] stemming from how Japan's youth have no real idea of what sex even is thanks to said authoritarian censorship.
Line 20 ⟶ 22:
* [[Poor Man's Porn]]: Porn is considered contraband and hard porn is particularly difficult to acquire. As a result, the perverted terrorist Blue Snow shows a video of flies "body-melding" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mt-mNRU97kg and dubs it].
* [[Reality Ensues]]: The series does show the darker sides of what [[Political Correctness Gone Mad]] would look like when enforced for a prolonged period of time, which can make for some [[Mood Whiplash]] moments. {{Spoiler|Particularly in one scene where Anna almost rapes Tanukichi, not knowing how to handle her repressed sexual urges.}}
* [[Sanity Slippage]]: Anna increasingly finds it difficult to channel and repress her own sexual urges, which manifests in her becoming more unhinged as the plot progresses.
* [[Spiritual Licensee]]: ''Shimoneta'' is pretty much a more risque version of ''[[Demolition Man]]'' especially with its satire on political correctness.
* [[Vapor Wear]]: Blue Snow's "costume" whenever she's in action basically consists of a white sheet, panties for a mask and ''nothing else.''
