Hikari drags Yuki to the stairwell where the girls are hanging out, tells her to stay quiet and out of sight, and then she gives the two a scathing TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, where she informs them that she's putting everyone in the school on notice that she will not tolerate smack talk and rumor-mongering, and will be there to shut it down the moment it happens.

Tetsuo Takahashi, a biology teacher at Shibasaki High School, was always intrigued by Demis - how much does the fact differ from the fiction? How do they deal with their conditions? How do they socialize with humans? He had one ambition that goes back to his college years - to conduct research into Demis, interview them and learn more about them. Unfortunately for him, his many attempts ended in failure - either the government didn't want to aid him, or because he just couldn't find Demis out on the street - most of them [[TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse don't look that much different from normal humans]]. In fact, despite his deep interest in the matter, Takahashi has yet to actually meet a Demi.

* TranslationMatchmaking: The title ''Interviews With Monster Girls'' was chosen by Kodansha to imply a connection with ''Film/InterviewWithTheVampire'' and ''[[Manga/MonsterMusume Everyday Life with Monster Girls]]'', works that don't have much to do with it. The term "Demi-chan" would be consistently translated as "demi-girls" in the subtitles, let alone the fact that, in-universe, calling demi-human girls "monster girls" is offensive.

* HornyDevils: The succubi in this universe is a mixture of folklore and Hollywood variants. While like in the folklores the succubi are not fed by sexual vampirism, but their seductive powers and beauty more aligns to the Hollywood type. As for who can be affected by their seductive powers, though, they are a bit unconventional: the power to induce EroticDream is equal-opportunity, while the rest of their seductive powers is dependent on sexual orientation. In any rate, Satou is a ReluctantMonster, and goes to great lengths to avoid seducing anyone.

Crosswicking a new trope!


* FantasticalSocialServices: Demihuman support is considered social welfare in this universe:
** Vampires, like Hikari, are provided rations of blood to help keep them healthy.
** Succubi like Sakie are provided with remote housing if they need, to prevent PowerIncontinence.
** Succubi also are the subject of a special investigative branch that looks into incidents of sexual harassment involving succubi, whose job is to determine if the incident was caused by PowerIncontinence, a [[ExploitedTrope deliberate use of their powers]] to test their limits, or if someone was targeting succubi with the hopes of [[BlamingTheVictim claiming that the succubus caused it.]]



* MonstersAnonymous: Demi support is considered social welfare in this universe:
** The government rations human blood to vampires.
** The succubi is an interesting case. Due to their PowerIncontinence, they may innocently or [[ExploitedTrope intentionally]] cause otherwise innocent {{muggles}} to commit sexual crime, they are actually under surveillance by the authorities. Although for the ReluctantMonster bunch (such as Satou), the government does provide assistance in {{def|ied}}ying this power incontinence, such as provide houses remote enough that they won't other others.

* PseudoRomanticPhase: This trope's Japanese background is alluded to when Hikari and Takahashi discuss the [[HemoErotic sexual]] [[KissOfTheVampire undertones]] of sucking blood, as Hikari feels quite awkward at the thought of biting a boy since she doesn't have any experience with boys and hasn't even kissed anyone yet, and Takahashi guesses that she probably feels so much more comfortable imagining biting Yuki because they're both girls and it's therefore easier to play off as a joke.
