Lost Forever was being misused. That's not the meaning of the trope. It's for when content inside a videogame can be gotten by Save Scumming or starting over your game. Commented out Zero Context Examples. Improved indentation. Due to the spoileriffic nature of All Just A Dream, and because it's a Zero Context Example, I'm inclined to delete it — better to list this work in that trope's page. Never spoiler tag a trope's name (don't list it in the first place if its very existence on the list gives away too much). Don't change a trope's name with potholes. Removed Word Cruft.

->''Long ago in ancient times, there were cool forces that raged explosive ninja battles for the throne. But there was one group that decided to rise up, and enter victory for which the other groups could not partake! It was a beautiful display of power and beauty and strength. However, another group decided to stand up to this apocalyptic world with elegant samurai! And thus, today's world was born. But that isn't what this story is about. This story is about a girl in modern-day Tokyo night.''
-->-- '''OpeningNarration''' from the first episode


''Tsuki Desu'' is a Website/YouTube and Nico Nico hosted {{Fanime}} series by Anthony W.H., started in the Spring of 2012. [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Najika Tsuki]] attends the night school Sugoi Gakuen Academy School in modern-day Tokyo, living a seemingly normal life (albeit with [[RunningGag no friends]]). She pines after StudentCouncilPresident, Yukari Bueno, spends her free time with cats, and laments that she definitely has no friends. But that all changes when NewTransferStudent Chitose Miyamoto shows up one day, and he seems to want to be Najika's friend....!

This is the second series released by master fanime creator Anthony, who already released a fanime of similar QUALITY, known as QuestOfLaizen

!!Tropes that ''Tsuki Desu" provides an example of:

* AccentUponTheWrongSyllable: Sakooruh and Cheetoes are good examples. Though Chitose, when Yukari pronounces it right, Chitose specifically asks him to call him Cheetos. More of an InSeriesNickname.
* {{Adorkable}}: Najika, at times.
* [[spoiler: AllJustADream: The special.]]
* AmazingTechnicolorBattlefield
* AnimeHair: Principal Daisuke...looks like he has a giant green mustache on his head.
* AnimeThemeSong: The intro "Drivin' Through The Night" from IkkiTousen, and the ending theme "Tokimeki no Doukasen" from FushigiYuugi.
* BigBad: Daisuke.
* BilingualBonus: Najika works for one episode at [[GratuitousJapanese Hazukashi Diner]]. Hazukashi means [[spoiler: I'm embarassed]].
* [[spoiler: BiTheWay: Sakura definitely crushes on Kurokana Kobo at first, and later feels something far stronger for Najika.]]
* CanonWelding: The last few episodes heavily imply QuestOfLaizen took place in this verse's past.
* CaptainErsatz: Anyone who is familiar with the *ahem* popular fanime Yin Yang will see quite a few similarities between the two.
** [[spoiler: Episode 5 gives us Bunny and Kitten, who are unmistakable copies of Jessie and James from {{Pokemon}}]]
* CerebusSyndrome: The plot becomes far more intense after [[spoiler: Najika goes back in time.]] Made all the more obvious because the [[EyeCatch Eye Catches]] that referenced previous fanime vanish right around then.
* {{Corpsing}}: Listen to the way Najika says SUH-KER-UHH's name in the Christmas special. You can tell she's trying not to laugh.
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Count how many times "Tsuki Desu" is mentioned in the first episode, or how many times Najika muses on her lack of friends.
* {{Deuteragonist}}: Yukari, with Chitose as the Tritagonist. [[spoiler: The same applies to their [[IdenticalGrandson ancestors]] in Feudal Japan after they replace them in story role, with King Yukari playing SupportingLeader with Cheetos as his KnightInShiningArmor NumberTwo.]]
* TheDragon: Kureno.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: The school bullies' reaction to Cheetos

* OurZombiesAreDifferent: [[spoiler: Yukari was brought back to life via magic, and can remove his body parts at will and use his bones as projectiles. Being a zombie doesn't seem to affect much besides [[DullSurprise his voice acting]], though.]]
