Recap / Nana Moon Episode 2

Go To

"Eh! An Elf Tutor??" (诶!精灵导师??): Keke, after meeting Amy for the first time, is brought to the King of Moon Haven to seek help in getting back to Earth, and takes in the scenery of Moon Haven as she goes to his castle. When she arrives, Keke learns she is the human of prophecy who is intended to save Moon Haven from a disaster, and she receives a badge to help her transform and is dubbed the moon genies' guru.


"Eh! An Elf Tutor??" contains the following tropes:

  • Accidental Kiss: Liz yells as Grunt and Grumble while they're hanging from a tree, causing them to swing a little. Grunt accidentally swings into Grumble and ends up with his pig snout touching Grunt's face. Since pressing a snout like this is the pig equivalent of a kiss, Grunt isn't delighted.
    Grunt: WAAAAAAAAAH!!! What do you think you're doing?! Get away from me! I can't believe you let your snout touch my face! That's really disgusting!!
  • Cave Behind the Falls: On the train ride to the Moon Haven castle, Keke sees a waterfall up ahead and is worried that she'll be soaked. Thankfully, an opening appears through the water, and Keke opens her eyes to find that the waterfall has a tunnel behind it leading into the caves of Moon Haven.
  • Establishing Character Moment: Many gadgets are seen in a hallway leading up to the King's throne room, and Amy explains those are his inventions, setting up his Gadgeteer Genius nature. We then see him being knocked to the bottom of the throne room by one of his new inventions.
  • Eye Pop: Grumble helps Liz down a tree, not realizing Grunt was eating through the tree to get her down. Grumble sees the tree falling on him, and his eyes pop as part of his scared expression.
  • Scream Discretion Shot: The camera briefly moves to a shot far away when Grumble screams after having been kissed by Grunt by accident.
  • Second Episode Introduction: The King is introduced in this episode.
  • Toilet Humor: One of Keke's early instances of getting the badge to work involves her making the King's crown shinier... except it places poop where the crown would be instead.
  • Transformation Sequence: Parodied; Keke gets the badge to transform her into a less Super-Deformed girl with a new outfit... only for her to open her eyes and find nothing happened. She's distressed by this and questions if anyone else saw that (all Amy saw was a bright light).
