6	----
7	!!Tropes:
8
9	%% * AmusingInjuries: Happens to Gan-chan a ''lot''.
10	%% * AnimatedActors:
11	%% -->'''Skuld:''' I thought we were off today!
12	%% * ButtMonkey: Gan
13	* BrainwashedBride: Gan-chan intends to propose to his love interest, but the enchanted rose he planned to give her accidentally ends up in Urd's hands. Urd, under the love spell placed on the rose, accepts his accidental proposal, which leads to their unexpected marriage as long as the enchantment lasts.
14	%% * CanonImmigrant: The ninja trio.
15	%% * GagSeries: Emphasizes humor and parody throughout all 48 episodes.
16	%% * NegativeContinuity: Especially for Gan. Lampshaded in the finale.
17	%% * NoDialogueEpisode: The rainy day episode.
18	%% * NoFourthWall
19	* OutOfGenreExperience:
20	** Episode 25/26 would at first glance seem to be [[DieHardOnAnX a parody]] of Film/DieHard. Except there is no parody involved as the show suddenly decides to become a genuine action thriller complete with guns, villains and seemingly no jokes (until the end, that is) whatsoever. The standard ending theme is also replaced with a movie style text crawl featuring some appropriate epic sounding music.
21	** Episode 28 is a NoDialogueEpisode following Urd walking around town on a rainy day. There is no jokes or even a story really being told. Just Urd and her emotions being viewed through a more muted than usual color palette while soulful piano and violin music plays in the background.
22	* ParodyNames: "Chu Hard" (Die Hard), "Gabira" (''Gojira''/Godzilla)
23	* ShoutOut:
24	** A manga of the main series is shown.
25	** They also reference Stallone's ''Film/{{Cliffhanger}}'' in a two-parter involving a runaway air conditioner.
26	** Episode Two has Skuld, Urd, and Gan riding on mecha. Not all that surprising, until you consider that [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Skuld's Unit Zero is blue, Urd's Unit One is purple, and Gan's Unit Three is red.]]
27	%% * SpinOffBabies: Sort of. The entire series is based off one of the powers the Goddesses displayed in the manga.
28	%% * SuperDeformed: The goddesses effectively spend most of the day in a MouseWorld.
29	%% * TalkingAnimal: Gan and the other rats.
30	* TheVoice: Keiichi. Lampshaded in one episode where a confused Gan wonders who and what the college student obliquely mentioned in the opening narration is.
