3''Megami Paradise'' is a MagicalGirl OriginalVideoAnimation based on an RolePlayingGame.
4
5The story takes place in an all-female utopian world, ruled over by the [[TheHighQueen Mamamega]], who is in charge of the Astro Star, a magic item that absorbs all the evil in the land and keeps it a nice place to live. Whenever the Astro Star reaches its limits of evil-absorption, the Mamamega purifies it and hands it and her leadership position over to the next Mamamega. As the story begins, the newly appointed Mamamega has chosen a young woman named Lilith to be her primary shrine maiden and has tasked her with recruiting two more shrine maidens. However, no sooner has Lilith formed her group when they encounter a rival group of women who are plotting to conquer their utopia and put the Astro Star to more nefarious purposes.

8!!Tropes:
9
10* ActionGirl: Juliana and her EvilCounterpart Rouge.
11* AffablyEvil: Angela is quite sweet, even sporting TaremeEyes. Still a villain, though.
12* AnimeOfTheGame: It was based on a RolePlayingGame.
13* BubbleGun: Rurubell's main attack, although it's slightly less useless than it sounds.
14* ChainmailBikini: Yamimama pairs this with a long skirt slit up both sides.
15* TheChosenOne: Lilith, the Mamamega's newly appointed shrine maiden.
16* ClothingDamage: Stashia's harp attack shreds all of Maharaja's clothes clean off.
17* {{Fanservice}}: The main raison d'ĂȘtre of this OVA.
18* FieryRedhead: Juliana, to match her tough swordswoman personality.
19* FurAndLoathing: Yamimama wears a furry wrap/boa.
20* GenkiGirl: Rurubell is energetic, childish, and averse to giving up even when she's in way over her head.
21* TheHighQueen: The Mamamega serves as the virtuous and competent ruler of Megami Paradise.
22* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Numerous examples, like when Lilith and Rurubell fall backwards and conveniently land in the 69 position, or when Maharaja captures Lilith and creepily licks her cheek while Lilith blushes.
23* LadyOfWar: Stashia is the most elegant and cool-headed of the heroes.
24* LittleMissBadass: Pastel might look cute, but she's a very dangerous villain.
25* MagicWand: Rurubell and Pastel each use one.
26* MagicalGirl: An early example of this genre being pitched squarely at a male demographic.
27* MagicWarrior: It's set in another world, but otherwise all the tropes match up.
28* MagicalIncantation: Used by Lilith and Rurubell.
29* MindControlEyes: The girls under the control of Maharaja's harp.
30* MusicalAssassin: Stashia can fight with a magic harp, as can her EvilCounterpart, Maharaja.
31* MsFanservice: Maharaja combines NavelDeepNeckline, detached sleeves, and StockingFiller, and she [[WhipOfDominance fights with a whip]].
32* NoblewomansLaugh: Maharaja pulls one off, complete with the classic hand gesture.
33* OneGenderRace: The world of ''Megami Paradise'' is entirely inhabited by women.
34%%* PluckyComicRelief: Rurubell
35* PointyEars: Angela has these, for reasons that go unexplained.
36* RoseHairedSweetie: Rurubell is the "cheery and optimistic" variety.
37* SensibleHeroesSkimpyVillains: The villains' outfits tend to be more revealing than the heroes', with the exception of [[LittleMissBadass Pastel]].
38* StockingFiller: Maharaja wears thigh-high stockings.
39* {{Stripperiffic}}:
40** Maharaja, Rouge, and Yamimama. Also, when Yamimama is sapping Lilith's power, she [[{{Fanservice}} naturally]] strips her down to her underwear and lays her out on a stone plinth. And of course even the underwear [[ClothingDamage shreds off]] towards the end of the power-sapping.
41** Juliana is also the one exception to the SensibleHeroesSkimpyVillains rule since her outfit combines a CleavageWindow, a LeotardOfPower, and HighClassGloves.
42* WhipOfDominance: Maharaja is a skilled bullwhip fighter, which befits her status as {{Dominatrix}}-themed villainess with her haughty and domineering personality who wears a {{Stripperiffic}} leather outfit.
