Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A long time ago, the Earth had died. Humanity was on the brink of extinction, until out of the blue, a mysterious man appeared. His name is "Y", and he proposed to reconstruct the entire Earth using nothing but clockwork gears. And thus, the Clockwork Planet is created.A thousand years later...Naoto Miura is a high school failure who seems to only care about clockwork machines above all else, but what people don't know about him is that he has an extraordinary ability to hear and feel gears in motion, even from very long distances. Then, one day, a random container falls into his home, and inside the container is a clockwork automaton he has never seen before. With beautiful white hair, smooth skin, and a personality that can pierce through the hearts of many, her name is RyuZU, and with their faithful encounter begins a journey to discover the truth about the world around them.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Clockwork Planet is a series of light novels, written by Yuu Kamiya and Tsubaki Himana and illustrated by sino, composed of 4 volumes.

Hotter and Sexier: A relatively minor case: In the manga, RyuZU has her service hatch on the back, in the anime, between her breasts (in both cases Naoto had to bare her upper body to access the hatch, though). | |

Green-Eyed Monster: The entire male side of Naoto's school is clearly jealous that the lovely Ryuzu is giving him so much attention. Then the entire student body towards him when he is so casually friendly with the prodigy Marie. Ryuzu seems to suffer this anytime Naoto shows interest in any machine other than her. Even once getting jealous when Naoto showed interest in a tower. | |

Skewed Priorities: After something crashed into his house, Naoto is more worried at the fact he dropped his magazine in the bathtub. Then played for drama immediately after. Despite his house falling all around him, he can't help but want to fix Ryuzu. It is pretty much a trait of Naoto. Naoto seems to be more interest in trying to get Ryuzu to admit she has feelings for him than the fact his city is about to be destroyed. Marie even calls him out on this. | |

Flash Step: Ryuzu is able to move her giant scythe so fast that, even in a crowded classroom, the teacher is unable to see her use it to destroy and stop any pieces of chalk from hitting Naoto. During a later meeting with Marie's friend Princess Hoshi, when Hoshi concludes Naoto should be killed, Ryuzu is able to step behind her from across the room, and place her scythe on her neck. Note that before this, she was giving Naoto a lap pillow! | |

In the Japanese original, when Naoto expressed his interest in Halter's powerful and sophisticated cyborg body and didn't show any overt signs of lusting after RyuZU's, she suspected him to be gay, whereas the Funimation dub has her euphemistically say that she's "not his type". | |

Marie does care for Ryuzu and Naoto even though she bickers with them occasionally (and resorts to physical violence towards Naoto). Both Naoto and Ryuzu also does care for Marie despite their occasional squabbling. Ryuzu sometimes uses harsh words towards Naoto but she still harbors romantic feelings for him. | |

No OSHA Compliance | |
| Clockwork Planet / int_b47d95be | comment |
No OSHA Compliance: Taken to the logical extreme here. With an entire planet running on gears, there is a lot of exposed machinery that clocksmiths have to risk exposing themselves to in order to keep the mechanisms running. In the first novel, Marie had to repair a broken gear by hopping in-between the machinery with virtually no solid ground to stand on, and one misstep could've ended in death. This was even discussed beforehand where Naoto suggested bringing in a repair bot, but since they were in a time crunch to prevent the purge from happening, Marie had no other options but to risk her life repairing the gear. This even extends to the planet's surface itself, which is nothing but exposed gears with no solid artificial surface to cover them, thus, preventing land travel. Travel in-between civilizations is done either by aircraft or circumstantial cylinder trains instead. | |

Hope Spot: The Guild manages to fix the gravitational problems just in time to stop the purge. Only for the Army to initiate the purge anyway to hide the evidence of their mistake. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Clockwork Planet / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Marie's last name Breguet is a reference to French-Swiss luxury watchmakers Breguet. Her first name might also be a reference to Marie Antoinette...the watch aka Breguet no. 160, that is, originally commissioned for the Queen herself. | |

Armies Are Evil | |
| Clockwork Planet / int_c9aea8c8 | comment |
Armies Are Evil: The Army is willing to allow 20 million people die just to cover up their mistake. Even when the mistake is fixed, they still continue with the purge just to cover up any evidence of said mistake. They are also willing to purge an entire city on the belief that a secret might get out. | |

Writers Cannot Do Math | |
| Clockwork Planet / int_da1c8191 | comment |
Writers Cannot Do Math: The series loves to throw a lot of numbers around, especially when it comes to gears, but there are a few mathematical discrepancies found that don't match the actual equations well or are just plain wrong. This paragraph quoted from page 126 of the first novel. If the elevator was exactly moving 1,000 meters (1 km) per second at a distance of 8,200 meters (about 8 km), it would actually take the elevator eight seconds to reach the third floor from the surface, not eight minutes, clearly not enough time for Marie to forcefully interrogate the Technical Force officer for information. For the elevator to reach the third floor in eight minutes, it would have to be moving at a much slower speed than what is described in the novel. Estimates would put the actual speed of the elevator at around 17 meters per second. Another discrepancy found in the first novel is that Kyoto's core tower is mentioned to be 50,000 meters (50 km) in diameter. This is in reference to its width, since the tower's height is listed at 90,000 meters (90 km). However, if the core tower was actually 50,000 meters across, it would be much larger than even Kyoto itself, which contradicts the official illustrations in the light novels and manga showing core towers to be no wider than a couple of buildings in one block. The average width of a Japanese high-rise building is about 30 to 50 meters, so measuring the distance of an entire block of buildings would put the actual diameter of the core tower at around 150 meters. A reddit user named A_Wild_Noob_Appeared did some math concerning the gears in Ryuzu's body. The odd part about it comes down to mainly how little the gears could be, and how large the gears in the anime and light novel are shown to be. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
| Clockwork Planet / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: Marie and Halter seem to walk across Naoto and Ryuzu by pure luck. When Marie is suffering from a Heroic BSoD from believing that she got Naoto and Ryuzu killed, they climb out of the sewers, in the middle of a random part of the city, days later, right in front of her. Though in this case Naoto could easily track her by hearing. | |

Dub-Induced Plotline Change | |
| Clockwork Planet / int_e5c4e505 | comment |
Dub-Induced Plotline Change: In the Japanese original, Naoto called God stingy for not giving him an automaton. Due to religious censorship, the Funimation dub changed that to begging "fate" for one. In the Japanese original, when Naoto expressed his interest in Halter's powerful and sophisticated cyborg body and didn't show any overt signs of lusting after RyuZU's, she suspected him to be gay, whereas the Funimation dub has her euphemistically say that she's "not his type". | |

Humongous Mecha | |
| Clockwork Planet / int_e6f18344 | comment |
Humongous Mecha: The Yatsukahagi. It seems like the scientists from purged cities are building a really huge robot out of the cities that have been purged, using the gears from said cities for spare parts. It wields electromagnetism which is Kryptonite to the clockpunk automatons, and forbidden by international law. | |

Heroic Self-Deprecation | |
| Clockwork Planet / int_efbc288f | comment |
Heroic Self-Deprecation: Anytime Naoto talks about himself, it's usually this. Ryuzu tries to cheer him up by stating how only he could fix her. However, due to the fact that she has no filter, her compliments often don't help much. | |

20 Minutes into the Future: Ironic, since despite the fact that it is stated to be 1000 years in the future, everything is essentially the same as it is today, but with gears and clockwork automatons being common. | |
