Sister Claire: Difference between revisions

''Pregnant nun, Holy Crap!''

 

 

 

Sister Claire's best friend and [[Big Brother Mentor|mentor]], Sister Catharine, is unfortunately extremely allergic to cats, which is why Claire is forbidden to play with them. Unfortunately for Catharine, Claire can't seem to stay away from her [[Non-Human Sidekick|best cat-friend Snowy]] for long, and this brings down harsh punishment from the terrifying Sister Marguerite, [[Sink or Swim Mentor|who finds every excuse to torment Claire with cruel and creative punishments.]]

* [[Because Destiny Says So]]

* [[Catgirl]]: Sister Cat {{spoiler|A.K.A Grim}}

* [[The Chew Toy]]: Poor Claire just can't catch a break.

* [[Chewing the Scenery|Chewing the]] [http://www.sisterclaire.com/comics/2010-10-18-munch.jpg Crockery]

* [[Easter Egg]]: Yamino loves throwing in homages and references for readers to find. Some are more subtle, others are direct homages, such as [http://www.sisterclaire.com/?p=410 the Powerpuff Girls 10th anniversary page, featuring Claire and the PPG sharing a cake.]

* [[Femme Fatalons]]: Sister Cat.

* [[Filler]]: Gabrielle taking Claire to an undersea nightspot in order to relax. It's a good kind of filler, though, building character and the relationship between the two characters

* [[Friend to All Living Things]]: Sister Claire loves all animals, but especially cats. She's a vegetarian for this reason.

** {{spoiler|Turns out the cat thing might not be coincidence.}}

* [[Have You Tried Not Being a Monster?]]: The twins, even going so far as to have deliberate [[Yuri]] symbolism all over them. But in their case, it's not forbidden love ([[Twincest|...maybe]]) {{spoiler|but forbidden psychic powers}}.

* [[Jerkass]]: Sister Marguerite, '''''AND FUCKING HOW.'''''

** The artist admitted that Marguerite was based on a nun teacher she once had. She does say she knows that not all nuns are so scary.

* [[Kindhearted Cat Lover]] going nearly to [[Crazy Cat Lady]] extremes.

* [[Knight Templar]]: {{spoiler|A few of the nuns toward withcraft. Even if said person isn't truly evil.}} Justified as {{spoiler|[[Shell-Shocked Veteran|the older nuns are still reeling from a war with witches]] and [[Properly Paranoid|know that there are some still out there.]]}} Considering Clarie's case, this is tragically ironic.

* [[Little Hero, Big War]]

* [[The Messiah]]

* [[Sexy Mentor]]: Sister Catherine. AND Gabrielle.

* [[Shout-Out]]: To ''[[Rose of Versailles]]'' with Sisters Rosalie, Antoinette and Oscar.

** The title page of Chapter 2 calls back to [[The Graduate]].

** Anytime the nuns' students are shown, pay attention; one of them might be Yamino, and the rest are invariably cameo appearances by characters from shows Yamino is particularly into, like [[Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt|Panty and Stocking]], or [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|human versions of ponies]].

** The sequence in the above link gives off a feel like [[The Crucible]].

** One of the new banner ads features a kitten dressed up like [[MS Paint Adventures|Nepeta]], with the phrase "Got Kitten!" (a reference to the "Got Tiger" [[Memetic Mutation|meme]]).

*** Yet another banner ad is drawn in the style of [[Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff]], with reference to [[Homestuck|blue ladies]].

* [[Sink or Swim Mentor]]: Catharine claims Sister Marguerite is one, but it's becoming increasingly apparent that she just really misses her job as a witch hunter, and Claire's mistakes are just convenient excuses to vent her pent-up sadism.

* [[Sssssnaketalk]]: Subverted. He has a lisp.

* [[Strange Syntax Speaker]]: Talk like [[Star Wars|Yoda]], Mother Superior does.

* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: [http://www.sisterclaire.com/?p=342 "There's nothing suspicious or weird happening!"]

* [[Three Faces of Eve]]

{{quote|When it comes to pain, I'm a professional. And I '''love''' my job.}}

* [[Valley Girl]]: Sisters Rosalie and Marie talk like them.

* [[Virgin Power]]

* [[Wacky Cravings]]: Om nom wooden mugs nom nom.

* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: Most of the nuns such as Olga and Marguerite {{spoiler|and, according to Catharine, Grim.}}

* [[What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?]]: Despite the cute and colorful style, the comic has an edgy quality that may not be suitable for children.
