History Manga / KillMeBaby

* AllegedLookalikes: An audio variant in the episode 4 dub. One of the fake Yasunas ''looks'' exactly like the original, [[CuteButCacophonic but definitely doesn't]] [[EvilBrit SOUND like her.]]

* WrongGenreSavvy: Subverted. The ''Zombie Baby'' chapter has Yasuna use herself as a distraction to clear out some zombies, but the weapons she takes with her (a wooden stake, a garland of garlic, and a Christian cross) all correspond to ''vampires'' rather than zombies. [[DumbassHasAPoint She somehow was correct]] in that [[OurZombiesAreDifferent all of the zombies burn away in sunlight]], just like vampires.

Despite the [[DeathbringerTheAdorable disturbing title]], '''''Kill Me Baby''''' (or '''''Baby, please kill me''''' depending on the translator, though the anime adaptation uses the former as the main title, and both in the eyecatches), is a {{Yonkoma}} gag strip created by Kaduho serialized in ''Magazine/MangaTimeKirara'' revolving mostly around slapstick humor.

* IronButtmonkey: Nothing ever stops Yasuna for long. Submission moves, limb fractures, punches to the face, she just keeps doing whatever she was doing.

* DumbassHasAPoint: For all of Yasuna's incorrect assumptions, her inquiry about Sonya hurting the wrong people if they so much as innocently touch her has some merit to it since Yasuna herself was the victim of her reflexes, even when she wasn't trying to prank her or get on her nerves.

* EveryEpisodeEnding: While the manga chapters end wherever they feel the joke should end, the anime's episodes always end with Yasuna and Sonya coming home from school.

* HighlyVisibleNinja: Ridiculed. During Sonya's not-birthday, Agiri (a genuine ninja) gives her a present of a very stereotypical ninja outfit (think ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyTactics'' Ninja class). Yasuna then mocks and laughs at Sonya's so-stereotype TheThemeParkVersion appearance. Things obviously end painfully for Yasuna.

* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: The anime's episode names feature three or four things ("A, B, and C" or "A, B, C, and D") that relate to the episode which, when written in Japanese, are all in hiragana.

* OnTheNextEpisodeOfCatchPhrase: "Now what will you do, Yasuna Oribe?"

* DissonantSerenity: Agiri never changes the sleepy, cheerful tone of her voice regardless of whether she's eating, buying a new phone, fighting a rival assassin from an enemy organization, standing inches away from an escaped zoo bear, [[https://mangadex.org/chapter/495594/13 or even killing people]].
** Except in the dub, where Agiri will occasionally ditch the voice either to snark or say a one liner.

* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: Narrowly Averted, we see Sonya returning from an underwater mission in episode 5.
** She also leaves on a mission in episode 13, much to Yasuna's despair.

Despite the [[DeathbringerTheAdorable disturbing title]], '''''Kill Me Baby''''' (or '''''Baby, please kill me''''' depending on the translator, though the anime adaptation uses the former as the main title, and both in the eyecatches), is a {{Yonkoma}} gag strip serialized in ''Magazine/MangaTimeKirara'' revolving mostly around slapstick humor.

** In Episode 3, Yasuna (using two spoons) and Sonya (imitating the transformation pose) give one to ''Series/{{Ultraman}}''. Yasuna does it again (with a mask) in Episode 5.

* DreamEpisode: Parts of Episode 11 are this.

** In Episode 11, Yasuna uses a "Carat Max Forward Miracle" magic spell. Individually, these words are the names of the ''Manga Time Kirara'' magazines other than the main subtitle-less one that serializes this manga.

* LamePunReaction: When Yasuna realizes she doesn't have enough snow to make a full snowman, she fashions it into a daruma instead. Feeling proud of herself, she cheerfully states that it's a ''real'' snowman now (in Japanese, they are called ''yuki-daruma''), which makes Sonya destroy it in bad pun-fueled anger.

* HandPuppet: Yasuna makes some for chapter 25/episode 5.

** One chapter covers a parody of ''Literature/TheTaleOfTheBambooCutter'', with Yasuna in the role of the Cutter and Sonya in the role of Princess Kaguya. The story ends before it can even properly begin, since the Bamboo Cutter marvels over theglowing bamboo before losing interest and only recalling it to a friend (played by Agiri). Meanwhile, poor Kaguya is stuck in the bamboo shoot, having grown to adult proportions.

* FracturedFairytale: The Wonderful Wizard of Kill, which parodies ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz''.

* {{Tareme Eyes}}: [[OrdinaryHighschoolStudent Yasuna]].

* DemotedToExtra: At the end of the first volume, the manga's creator mentioned that Yasuna was initially supposed to play the "straight" girl to contrast with Sonya's HairTriggerTemper, and a third unnamed child assassin with braided hair and a Chinese fighting style was going to play TheDitz. However, Yasuna [[CompositeCharacter eventually absorbed the third girl's personality]] and became the crazy girl to Sonya's relatively "straight" role, while the other girl was relegated to the extra material outside of the story.
** MauveShirt in the anime, due to being voiced by Creator/RieKugimiya. And all of her appearances are PlayedForLaughs while utilizing this trope.

* FestivalEpisode: Chapter 24/Episode (...), where they stumble upon a street festival on the way home.

* BadassAdorable: Sonya definitely qualifies as this.

* BearsAreBadNews: Chapter 9 (Episode 2 in the anime).
* BefriendingTheEnemy: Yasuna's goal.

* TheComicallySerious: Sonya tends to sound this way when talking to Yasuna.

* TheDitz: Yasuna. She ''thinks'' she's in High School. Maybe.

* FestivalEpisode: Chapter 24.
* FleetingPassionateHobbies: Yasuna has a tendency to go and buy the latest thing she sees on tv, or the latest fads she sees, such as attempting to perform psychic acts after watching one on tv.

* GirlishPigtails: Sonya.
* GivingUpTheGhost: Yasuna in episode 2 after Sonya puts her to sleep to help her get rid of her hiccups.

* KillUsBoth: Parodied. Sonya does this not [[SpottheImposter out of desperation,]] but because she's sick of Yasuna's antics and didn't ''care'' she was in her way.

* LittleMissBadass: Sonya. Simply trying to touch her will result in losing the use of your arm.
* LittleMissSnarker: Sonya ends up doing this a lot towards Yasuna.

* PuniPlush: Invoked UpToEleven, as Kaduho's other big work Kagaku Chop and his doujins often have more regulated proportions.
* RapunzelHair: Agiri

* ThreeShorts: Every episode of the anime has three segments, which are said in the title.

* {{Tsurime Eyes}}: Sonya again.

* AssassinOutClassin:

* HypocriticalHumor: Yasuna, in a rare display of not using and trickery, decides to throw a Christmas party for her friends. Sonya, the assassin who regularly takes out dangerous weapons in and outside of the classroom, chastises her for setting up a hotpot when those aren't allowed on school grounds.
