Sleeping with the Girls: Difference between revisions

** In Volume II, he begins noticing that the pattern of beds he ended up in from the first "loop" is repeating itself.

* [[Action Survivor]]: The SI, natch.

* [[The All-Concealing "I"]]: Used to conceal the SI's name.

* [[Anti-Magic]]: The SI took a full power blast from Zoicite, causing Zoicite to think him dead, and only got winded. Later, one of the Number Cyborgs shot him with a pure magic blast, and not only did it not do any good whatsoever, but he ''didn't even notice when it happened.''

* [[Shotguns Are Just Better]]: Invoked when the SI passes on an M-16 and goes for the Mossberg 500 Tactical shotgun.

** Later becomes [[Justified Trope|justified]] when Washu provides him with upgraded futuristic ammo, including flechette, bolter and antimatter shells. A shotgun is simply far more versatile in the type and caliber of ammo it can be loaded with, without changing the gun itself at all.

** The SI refers to the [[Known Space|Kzinti Lesson]] after being reminded that being outside while [[Tenchi Muyo!|Mihoshi]] is [[Weaponized Exhaust|lifting off is a Bad Idea]]. Well, he doesn't really ''refer'' to it so much as ''shout the phrase loudly and repeatedly at himself while running for cover'', but hey, still a shout-out. Literally.

** His super suit is called the [[Half Life|HEV Suit]].

** One show that the SI starts to watch is ''Lock'N'Load'' with R. Lee Ermy.

** At one point [[Love Hina|Haruka]] is compared to [[Animaniacs|Slappy Squirrel.]]

* [[Shown Their Work]]: When the SI was running from Sailor Mars, the author got an actual map of the [[Real Life]] area surrounding the shrine to plot out the SI's route.

* [[A Simple Plan]]: The SI keeps running into the problem that, because of [[Rule of Funny|the laws of comedy]], all of his plans are doomed to backfire in "humorous" ways.

* [[This Is Sparta]]: When explaining an elf her chances to revenge on Those Who Hunt Elves.<ref>''[[Those Who Hunt Elves]],'' second arc</ref>

{{quote|'''SI:''' Let me make this absolutely clear. YOU. CANNOT. WIN.}}

* [[Unfazed Everyman]]: The main character has absolutely no special abilities, no magic powers, and had to get a medical nanobot injection just to ''survive'' the first [[Tenchi Muyo!|two]] [[Love Hina|worlds]] he ended up in. Of course, he's also been through boot camp and knows his way around firearms, so that's one small advantage.

* [[Unspoken Plan Guarantee]]: [[Invoked]].

* [[Upgrade Artifact]]: The nanobots and [[Clothes Make the Superman|protective suit]] Washu gives the SI after the near-disastrous first loop's conclusion.

* [[Voice with an Internet Connection]]: [[Tenchi Muyo!|Washu]] (whom the protagonists meets and befriends on the first "jump", and stays in contact with via a transdimensional communicator) has a bit of this.

* [[Who Would Want to Watch Us?]]: This is the common reaction fictional characters have when the SI explains where he's from. Later, [[Sailor Moon|Luna]] gets to watch a few episodes of the ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' anime.

{{quote|'''Luna''': This is surreal. I can see myself panicking, but the way this episode is cut, it's ''obvious'' that Rhett Butler has the final crystal piece.
