History Manga / HanamaruKindergarten

* OverprotectiveDad: A light case with Aoi's dad.

* LoveYouAndEverybody: Yamamoto says this once in episode 3. Mercifully it was to Anzu, not Tsuchi.

* YakuzaPrincess: Hinagiku is the daughter of a yakuza clan's leader [[spoiler:and is more in control of the "family" than he is]].

* {{Gainaxing}}: Yamamoto in her swimsuit [[spoiler:and the grown-up Anzu from the dream]]. [[{{Trope Namer}}Although Gainaxing in a Gainax produced show seems redundant, somehow.]]

* KissingCousins: Daichi, [[spoiler:Yamato's cousin, tries to start a relationship with her in chapter 83.]]

* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler:Mayumi/Hanamaru-sensei]] and [[spoiler:Yamato and Tsuchida in a LastMinuteHookup]]

** As befits a manga published by (and an anime sponsored by) Square Enix, Tsuchida often plays [[DragonQuest Dragon Quest IX]] on his DS.
*** We also see him playing [[DragonQuest Dragon Quest VIII]] twice......on his [[BlandNameProduct "Pony"]]].

* ArtShift: ''[[http://manga.animea.net/hanamaru-youchien-chapter-1-page-10.html This]]'' is the first look we get at the girls in the manga, a very deliberate attempt to make the readers think this will be a serious romance/drama in the vein of ''Kodomo No Jikan''. Then on the next page we get a [[http://manga.animea.net/hanamaru-youchien-chapter-1-page-11.html better look at them]].
** Episode 11's ending is animated in a notably different style from the rest of the show. Episode 8's is as well, using a watercolor style.

** When the teachers go to sing karaoke in episode 10, one of them is singing "Northern Lights" from ''ShamanKing''.

Based on the manga by Yuto and produced by Creator/StudioGainax, the series aired on Creator/TVTokyo in the winter 2009/2010 season.

** She gets much better by episode 11 though.

* NoMouth: Hiiragi

** Likewise in the manga.

* ShrinkingViolet: Koume

* HeyItsThatVoice: Yamamoto-sensei is what happens when [[Manga/{{ARIA}} Akari Mizunashi]] became a kindergarten teacher minus the [[CloudCuckooLander absent-mindedness]].
** And [[LightNovel/ShakuganNoShana Tsuchida]]-[[LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero sensei]] [[Creator/SatoshiHino too]].
** [[Creator/KojiYusa Hanamaru-sensei]] used to be [[Series/KamenRiderDenO a lot better with women]]...

* [[ActorAllusion Director Allusion]]: The references to the [[Anime/FullmetalAlchemist 2003 anime adaptation]] of ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' and ''ShamanKing'' were likely because Seiji Mizushima directed all three anime.
