[[Describe Topic Here|One can describe Dead Leaves here.]] Alternately, one can describe the end result of an [[X Meets Y|unholy fusion of]] ''[[FLCL]]'' and ''[[Superjail]]'' [[This Is Your Premise on Drugs|made after doing a rhino-sized dose of super-distilled crack cocaine and LSD]].
Line 28:
** A bit of [[Reality Subtext]] (see below) makes this especially funny and heartwarming.
* [[Ax Crazy]]: Retro, The Warden, Triple-Six, and a lot of the inmates qualify for this trope.
{{quote|
* [[Badass]]: Retro, Triple-Six, and Triple-Seven
* [[Batman Can Breathe in Space]]: This trope briefly occurs in the first part of Retro and Triple-Seven's fight.
Line 34:
* [[Click Hello]]: Pandy's baby makes its introduction to the world by pulling out a pistol and shooting the warden through the stomach -- just before ''it births itself''.
* [[Cloning Blues]]: Being a clone without the "mutation gene cluster" makes an inmate exceptionally expendable. One inmate remarks:

* [[Clothing Damage]]: Pandy goes from the top half of the prison uniform, to... half of that, during her fight with Triple-Six.
* {{spoiler|[[Daddy Issues]]: The Warden}}
* [[Dark Action Girl]]: The Warden
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Retro's delivery was a bit too amped up to be called "deadpan", but Pandy tossed out some cool snarks.
{{quote|
* '''[[Deranged Animation]]''': "Animation that dispenses with all semblance of reality, and sanity, taking the viewer into a nightmare world where anything goes"? Check.
* [[Disney Death]]: Unlike the aforementioned inmates, {{spoiler|Retro}} does come back, though {{spoiler|he}} subverts the trope by lacking a body upon return.
Line 51:
* [[Gag Penis]]: Chinko Drill, one of the inmates, has a large drill for a dick.
* [[Groin Attack]]: After one particular explosion, Chinko Drill finds himself landing dick-first into a pile of rubble.
{{quote|
** He later uses his drill as a weapon to attack 777 as an actual Groin Attack.
* [[Humongous Mecha]]: Used as mere cannon fodder during the initial car chase.
* [[Immune to Bullets]]: Triple 6 and Triple 7.
{{quote|
* [[Ironic Nursery Tune]]: Actually a children's story, but close enough.
* [[Large Ham]]: Retro, oh so much in the dub, especially when he fights.
{{quote|
'''Retro''': "My ass! OH DEAR GOD, it's sucking my ASS!" }}
* [[Laser-Guided Amnesia]]: Pandy and Retro have no memory of their past, but know how to get out of their straitjackets and handcuffs, and know their way around the prison.
Line 80:
* [[The Power of Love|The Power Of Love(making)]]: Sex breaks Pandy and Retro out of their cell. No, really.
* [[Prison Rape]]: And oh, dear Lord, it's done by [[This Is a Drill|Chinko.]]
{{quote|
* [[Pregnant Badass]]: Pandy, through most of the movie.
* [[Reality Subtext]]: A twofer: not only are the English voices of Pandy and Retro married in real life, but [[Amanda Winn-Lee|Pandy's voice actress]] became pregnant with their first child while working on the movie.
Line 86:
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: The original script plays out as an action movie with small pockets of comedy here and there. The dub of the OVA, however, borders on [[Gag Dub]] -- while keeping the original script as intact as possible.
* [[Right Through His Pants]]: Pandy and Retro have sex while wearing the prison's standard outfit (best described as an overgrown straitjacket).
{{quote|
** Pandy chides Retro for initially trying to enter the wrong hole.
* [[Rule of Cool]]
