History YMMV / MariKari

** Either Mari is unaware that Kari is dead owing to her extreme [[TheDitz airheadedness]] or she ''is'' aware but [[AngstWhatAngst has no reason to be sad about it]] since she can still interact with her sister's ghost because, in a way, she was never technically gone.
** Kari's reaction to seeing [[spoiler:Mari kiss Larry on the cheek. Is it directed at Mari for putting the moves on her crush, or at Larry for reacting positively to her sister's advances? [[TakeAThirdOption Or is she mad at them both]] for essentially making her a {{third wheel}}?]]

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: While the cartoon is mostly overlooked in America during its initial run, the cartoon was featured in a video about gory American cartoons by Japanese [=YouTuber=], Kirin, leading to a surge in popularity 8 years later. As a result, most of the fanart related to the show are from Japanese fans.
* {{Moe}}: Mari, with her cheerful, if at times a bit [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} kooky]], personality and cute character design. Kari as well, to a lesser extent, thanks to her [[EyesOutOfSight eye obscuring bangs]], subverting the CuteOversizedSleeves trope, and her [[AllLoveIsUnrequited unrequited crush]] on Larry. It's no surprise that [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff Japanese viewers]] found them endearing.
