History Manga / KillMeBaby

** In fact, the ''actual'' title of the series is ''Kirumi-[=BeiBe-=]'', the phonetic approximation of "Kill Me Baby."
* GratuitousForeignLanguage: Yasuna, in the anime, particularly in the opening scene as a form of CouchGag for the first few episodes.

--> '''Yasuna:''' [[GratuitousChinese Nihao!]]

*** Unused character is a solid one of Vita from ''Nanoha'': a short-tempered, redhead girl with a braid and an IdiotHair who intrudes as a rival later into the plot (well, she tries) and definitely doesn't like not to be taken seriously. Her anime version also has a bit of a ShanaClone by virtue of her seiyuu.

** The series is a superficial WholePlotReference to ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha''. Not only Sonya looks almost exactly like a SuperDeformed version of Fate, her background and relationship with Yasuna also mirror Fate's ones with Nanoha in a tongue-in-cheek way. Yasuna is clearly meant to be the Nanoha to Sonya's Fate, although not as dramatically similar in design and personality (she still shares her brown hair, simpler hairdo, sweet personality and role in the plot, however).
*** Following the ''Lyrical Nanoha'' line, Agiri's character design and absurdly calm personality make her resemble an exaggerated, stoner-like version of Suzuka. Even her status as a ninja might be a reference to Suzuka's astonishing athleticism in the ''Nanoha A's'' manga.

Her anime version also has a bit of a ShanaClone by virtue of her seiyuu.

** When Yasuna fails to do any esper tricks, Sonya reacts by punching her in the style of Series/{{Ultraman}}'s growth powerup pose.

* 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 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.

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

* StatusQuoisGod: Some chapters of the manga imply that the characters die. However, by the next one Yasuna and Sonya are alive and well.

** In fact, the ''actual'' title of the series is ''Kirumi-[=BeiBii=]'', the phonetic approximation of "Kill Me Baby."

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
** The dubbed anime includes a line relating to Viagra. Yes, really.
** In Episode 3, Yasuna annoys Sonya with fake fortune-telling. At one point, she says that Sonya will lose her shoes, and Sonya responds "I know where I'm going to lose one of them."
** In the manga, GoryDiscretionShots are often used in order to show notable injuries or moments that would be too creepy for MangaTimeKirara. The most well known example by far is at the end of Chapter 89, when [[spoiler: Yasuna discovers what seems to be Sonya's corpse inside a safe.]]

* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: Huge versions of Yasuna and Sonya appear in episode 4 as eyecatches.

* JapaneseRanguage: The dub occasionally has an overly deep voice read off the eyecatch cards in this manner. It's probably on purpose.

*** Unused character is a solid one of Vita from ''Nanoha'': a short-tempered, redhead girl with a braid and an IdiotHair who intrudes as a rival later into the plot (well, she tries) and definitely doesn't like not to be taken seriously. Her anime version also has a bit of a ShanaClone by virtue of her seiyu.

** She also leaves on a mission in episdoe 13, much to Yasuna's despair.

Despite the 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.

* AlternateUniverse: All the volume prologues are this. So far they've parodied MagicalGirl shows, Momotaro, Dracula, TheWestern, 'Literature/TheWizardOfOz and the SpaceOpera genre.

* 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 insanity, and a third unnamed child assassin with braided hair and a Chinese fighting style was going to play TheDitz. However, Yasuna 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.

* GratuitousForeignLanguage: Yasuna, in the anime, particularly in the opening scene as a form of CouchGag.

** Chapter 89 is creepy even by the manga's standards.

** In the manga, GoryDiscretionShots are often used in order to show notable injuries or moments that would be too creepy for MangaTimeKirara.

** The unused character, who complains she doesn't even have a name, vows revenge on Sonya and Yasuna, then keeps missing the two when she tries to approach them at school in episode 3.

* 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 or standing inches away from an escaped zoo bear. [[https://mangadex.org/chapter/495594/13 A panel from the 7th volume's prologue implies this]].

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

* EnfantTerrible: Sonya.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: In Episode 3, Yasuna annoys Sonya with fake fortune-telling. At one point, she says that Sonya will lose her shoes, and Sonya responds "I know where I'm going to lose one of them."

* MoodWhiplash: The last third of the SeasonFinale - [[spoiler: What starts out as a regular gag sketch of Yasuna trying to disrupt one of Sonya's assassination assignments ends with her [[ItMakesSenseInContext stuck in a pit]] [[TearJerker tearfully begging Sonya not to leave, because she's terrified for the safety of]] [[IJustWantToHaveFriends one of her only friends.]] Cue Sonya helping her out of the pit and claiming her mission was cancelled due to a "change of plans".]]

* FieryRedhead: The unused character, [[MulticoloredHair partially]].

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

** Is that [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Kyubey]] in Episode 1 of the anime?
** Also, let's not forget [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 a certain well-dressed gentleman]] from everyone's favorite war-themed hat simulator in episode 4.

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

* SpotTheImposter: In anime episode 4, two enemy assassins from different groups target Sonya and coincidentally disguised themselves as Yasuna. Their disguises are perfect, down to her stupidity—neither of them actually manage to attack her. The real Yasuna finds them in the spare classroom, and she inexplicably joins them and taunts with them that Sonya can't attack any of them since she can't tell which one is real. They fail to realize that Sonya doesn't care much for Yasuna's safety, so [[KillusBoth she just attacks them all at once,]] rightly guessing that [[IronButtMonkey the real one would just shake it off.]]

* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: narrowly Averted, we see Sonya returning from an underwater mission in episode 5.

* TitleDrop: The 13th and final episode of the anime is appropriately named "Kill, Me, and Baby".

* {{Tsundere}}: Sonya.
** [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Yasuna in vol. 1 (anime episode 4).
** It also counts as {{breaking the fourth wall}}.
*** Yasuna actually breaks the fourth wall in the dubbed version.

* ThreeShorts: Similar to the ''Manga/SquidGirl'' anime.

* WithFriendsLikeThese: Yasuna would have to be ''very'' lonely to keep coming back to Sonya, who in turn would have to be likewise to not only put up with her for so long, but even rescue her from alien octopi in the opening sequence.

* {{Yandere}}: Although not in-universe, the ending song has the line "I love you so much so that I want to kill you".

* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Sonya and Yasuna have a few moments like these (like in the last episode of the anime), and their rarity only [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments adds to their sweetness]].
* BadassAdorable / CuteBruiser: Sonya definitely qualifies as this.

* MoodWhiplash: The last third of the SeasonFinale - [[spoiler: What starts out as a regular gag sketch of Yasuna trying to disrupt one of Sonya's assassination assignments ends with her [[ItMakesSenseInContext stuck in a pit]] [[TearJerker tearfully begging Sonya not to leave, because she's terrified for the safety of]] [[IJustWantToHaveFriends one of her only friends.]] [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments Cue Sonya helping her out of the pit and claiming her mission was cancelled due to a "change of plans".]]]]

* ActionGirl: Sonya, though it would make sense since she's an assassin.

* AmusingInjuries: A LOT. 99% of them fall on Yasuna. The few times Sonya does get hurt though, Yasuna tends to laugh. Which then gets Sonya mad, and she further punishes Yasuna for it.

* BlankWhiteEyes: Displayed on Sonya and Yasuna from time to time.

* BrainBleach: Sonya and Yasuna's expressions after opening Agiri's boxes in the wrong order in the last episode. Agiri is shown to have recovered the end of the last segment.

* BlackComedy: The show runs on this, as any violence depicted is PlayedForLaughs.

* 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 or standing inches away from an escaped zoo bear.

* DualWielding: The Volume 1 cover shows Sonya wielding pistols and Yasuna wielding an eggplant and a banana.

* PuniPlush

** In Episode 11, Yasuna uses a "Carrot 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, with "Carrot" standing in for ''Kirara Carat''.

* ThreeShorts: Similar to the Manga/ShinryakuIkaMusume anime.

* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Sonya and Yasuna have a few moments like these (like in the last episode of the anime), and their rarity only [[HeartwarmingMoments adds to their sweetness]].

* MoodWhiplash: The last third of the SeasonFinale - [[spoiler: What starts out as a regular gag sketch of Yasuna trying to disrupt one of Sonya's assassination assignments ends with her [[ItMakesSenseInContext stuck in a pit]] [[TearJerker tearfully begging Sonya not to leave, because she's terrified for the safety of]] [[IJustWantToHaveFriends one of her only friends.]] [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Cue Sonya helping her out of the pit and claiming her mission was cancelled due to a "change of plans".]]]]
