Line 29:
** [[Downplayed]] in the S season, where we see very little of the senshi at school, but nearly every episode starts with them studying for their exams (until they are inevitably distracted, either by the [[Monster of the Week]] or by some more mundane crisis).
** Averted in ''Sailor Moon SuperS''. They're all on summer break. During the Manga they've shifted to High School during this arc but it was pushed back an arc for the anime. The timing pretty much ends up the same by the end though.
* [[MaiMy-HiME]] does this as well. With one exception, the girls are more concerned with boys, food, classes and part-time jobs (or if they're not in school, with their own affairs) than with destroying monsters, though they are more than happy to do so when they show up.
** Later on in the series, this becomes increasingly averted {{spoiler|as the battles of the HiMEs end up partly destroying the school, and most of them either drop out, disappear, or otherwise stop caring about what's going on in school because they're too busy trying to kill each other.}}
* All but one of the Idiot Rangers in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' are powerful fighters on Negi's team. Kaede and Ku Fei in particular were strong fighters even before the start of the series, yet their first major obstacle in the series was to receive adequate scores on their final exams.
Line 147:
* Who could forget ''[[Batman Beyond]]'', since this was a major dilemma for the Batman-who's-still-in-high-school Terry McGinnis. A lot of sub-plots in the episodes revolve around this, and even a few major plots do, like when Terry takes his schoolwork on the job in "The Eggbaby". Rather coincidentally, a lot of the villains and problems in the show ALSO come out of Terry's high school.
* For ''[[Winx Club]]'', this would be the girls' daily routine.
* Same thing with Sam, Alex and Clover of ''[[Totally Spies!]]!''
* ''[[Transformers Prime]]'': Though its more like "Wake Up, Go To School, Help The Giant Robots Save The World."
* Averted in ''[[Iron Man: Armored Adventures]]''. Tony Stark has very little interest in keeping up with his school life and would much rather be working on new armour in the lab or flying around, saving the world. Nevertheless, he seems to have made friends pretty easily despite never being in a high school before and taking very lengthy "bathroom breaks" seemingly every other day.
