''Sentai School'' was one of the very first manfra [French [[Animesque]] comics] edited by Semic Manga and then by [http://www.mangakami.com// Kami] between 2003 and 2008.It was written by Philippe Cardona and Florence Torta, and drawn by Philippe Cardona. It debuted as a doujinshi before it was published in ''Coyote'', a French anime magazine.
 
It's about a Japanese [[Super -Hero School]] where the students/ heroes are sentai or shonen. At first a boys school, it becomes coeducational in volume 2, introducing magical girls or [[Action Girl]]. The story is an [[Affectionate Parody]] of manga, especially sentai and others well known in France. Nearly every character is a spoof of famous manga characters: For instance, Oscar sensei the costume teacher looks like the real Oscar, ''[[Rose of Versailles]]'' heroine. There are two poor and starved children, named Remi and Sarah, that spoof heroes from ''Sans Famille'' and ''[[A Little Princess]]'' animated series among others. Moreover, savvy readers will notice [[Shout -Out|Shout Outs]] to monsters that look like [[Doraemon]] or Mike from ''[[Monsters Inc.]]'', and bit players like Maetel from ''[[Galaxy Express 999]]'' in an airport.
Characters page is on its way.
 
Line 41:
* [[Arch Enemy]]: Stratequerre and Ultra-sama are, since nursery days. Doctor Poulpy (Spoof of Doctor Octopus, of course) is also one for Peter Naraignee.
* [[Badass Cape]]: There's a class for it. Actually, there's even Badassness classes.
* [[Bad Job, Worse Uniform]]: After realised that Bibi just found a job, Viper imagine what it can be and the uniforms that goes with are worse and worse: a crab mascot for a restaurant, a [[Meido]] uniform for a bar, a sexy cosplay or a [[Playboy Bunny|bunny outfit]] for a nightclub.

{{quote| How did that get here??? }}
* [[Luke, I Am Your Father]]: Parodied obviously when Major Anaconda, the American Trial Arc [[Big Bad]], tells {{spoiler|Angus}} he is his father. He expects a [[Big No]] that [[Angst? What Angst?|don't come]]. Plays it totally straight (and [[Crosses the Line Twice]]) when he tells {{spoiler|Debbie Breakfoot}} he also slept with her mom, so [[Brother-Sister Incest|she's her love interest's]] [[Incest Is Relative|half sister]]. He then proceeds to one-up himself by picking random members of the court audience and listing his relation to them.
* [[Mundane Ghost Story]]: Toa tells one around the campfire in "Resident Sentai", with a flashlight aimed up under his face, and it sounds like a sum-up of [[Junji Ito]] 's works.
* [[Not That Kind of Doctor]]: [[Black Jack|Dr. Kiriko]] is the [[Academy of Evil|Villain Academy]]'s nurse.And because he's the only one to have a medicine doctorate among all others teachers.( [[Choudenshi Bioman|Doctor Man]],[[Mazinger Z|Doctor Hell]] , [[Jikuu Senshi Spielban|Doctor Bio]],and [[Inspector Gadget|Doctor Claw]]. )
Line 132:
* [[Running Gag]]: The school keeps on exploding, due mostly to the five heroes. Also, Toa's name is mistaken for a pronoun, or when nobody notices that he was missing.
* [[School Play]] : Yes, it was [[Romeo and Juliet]]. Yes, Bibi plays Juliet. And... Tofu was Romeo, but Bibi plays a hundred differents tricks to make the scenario derail and end alone on scene with Hongo, who was playing Mercutio. Oh, and Koji was [[You Are a Tree Charlie Brown|the tree]].
* [[School Uniforms Are the New Black]]: Sentai School and Villain's school ones have [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]. Bottom is clear for the villains, and black for heroes. And if in Villain's School all jackets are black, in Sentai School they're in a different color for everyone (fit with personality or [[Shout -Out]] to the original character clothes).
* [[Screams Like a Little Girl]]: A Freddie Mercury look-alike does this, making the students believing he was a [[Distressed Damsel]].
* [[Shipper On Deck]]: Viper, for Bibi and Hongo. {{spoiler|She even use a [[Mind Control Device]]}}
* [[Shout -Out]] :So, so, ''so much'', you can't count them. But trying to is half the fun.

* [[Writing Lines]]: While doing it on a black board, Hongo say he find that ridiculous. Cue agreement from [[Shout -Out|Bart Simpson]] next to him.
