History Headscratchers / Nichijou

** "Most people think that it's natural for a girl to draw yaoi" Most people in ''fandom'' world might indeed not have much of a reaction, and that's nowadays. You may be forgetting that Mio's friends and acquaintances in the anime aren't explicitly anime/manga fans, nor does Mio announce herself to the world as a yaoi/manga fan/artist the way someone like Konata from ''Manga/LuckyStar'' might (later her friends do help her with a manuscript, but it was probably a SFW one). Regardless, even without getting to the fact that it's yaoi specifically, most people (let alone teenagers) would likely be, much like Mio is, mortified if their romantic (one might even say, uh, "spicy") fanfiction/drawing was seen by their, for the lack of a better word, "normie" friends.

* Why was Mio so panicked when someone saw her Yaoi Manga? Most people think that it's natural for a girl to draw yaoi, because yaoi often associated with women, right?

** A totally made-up game where players have a round of rock-paper-scissors and the winner climbs a stair per mora of any word.

* I don't understand the stairs game. What are they doing?

*** THANK you!

** They have one uniform for cold months (the yellow & red one in Nichijou), and one uniform for hot months (the white & blue one in Nichijou). Of course, the designs (especially of the winter type) vary wildly between schools.

* Probably a question about Japanese schools (or even schools with uniforms in general) but, Why do they have two uniforms they switch back and forth from, that EVERYBODY wears that day? Are there assigned uniform days or something?

** After 172 chapters, only three involve the Fe Kingdom, all of which are in the anime. As for cruelty: Keep in mind the "entertain me or I'll drop you to your death" scene was AFTER the men had mutineed. She may have been plenty nice, but after what they did she wasn't anymore, to them at least. (Also, being Yukko's daydreams, continuity's not important.)

* Is there any more plot to the Fe Kingdom skits that the anime missed? I want to know why the princess was so cruel as to drop henchmen out of the blimp for not entertaining her (it would explain why they staged a rebellion in the first one). Also, possible fridge brilliance; is the blimp from the kingdom or is it actually THE Fe Kingdom?

** And the fact that Nano's surname not being a secret at all doesn't hint Nakamura that her objectives WOULD come around pretty grievously for her career as a teacher, if she ever achieved capturing Nano... At very least, she'd be wronging someone from the Director's family.

** …hang on, I've got to add the "Professor is an orphan/has absentee parents/got emancipated (she ''does'' have a Ph.D. after all) and deliberately created Nano as a nanny/replacement parent" hypothesis to the WMG page.

** She could have also, upon noticing the eraser in the first door, simply opened the door without stepping forward. But yeah, Yukko wouldn't do something like that because she wouldn't find it funny.

** Yukko's big on the {{Boke and Tsukkomi Routine}}. So yeah, RuleOfFunny demands that she don't just remove it.

* Yeah yeah, RuleOfFunny. But could Yukko just not remove the chalkboard eraser from the lower door in episode 10? [[http://i.imgur.com/k9kBu.jpg Not like she couldn't reach it.]]
