Kekko Kamen is a manga series written and illustrated by Go Nagai. It was originally published on Shonen Jump from 1974 to 1978.No-one has seen her face, everyone has seen her body. Kekko Kamen is a superheroine who apparently refuses to wear the skin-tight bodystocking so it was removed from her uniform. She fights injustice, mostly focusing on rescuing students from insane disciplinarians.Compare and contrast Maboroshi Panty, another manga illustrated by Go Nagai and serialized in Shonen Jump, which had a heroine who helped her father fight crime by wearing only gloves, boots, a scarf and two pairs of panties (one worn over her face like a mask) and featured Kekko Kamen's nemesis Satan's Toenail in the third volume. | |

Hotter and Sexier: For a series that has it's whole premise centered around fanservice, the games for the PC-98 make it straight up pornographic. | |

All Men Are Perverts | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_129749df | comment |
All Men Are Perverts: Satan's Toenail, in addition to seeking her defeat, lusts after Kekko Kamen, and several male villains in the series are shown to get off on the twisted punishments they inflict on the students. Exaggerated with one judo instructor whose fighting technique involves (and by that we mean consists entirely of) groping his female opponent's breasts. | |

Full-Frontal Assault | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_18ce8f1d | comment |
Full-Frontal Assault: This franchise is infamous for this trope and this trope alone. Kekko Kamen is never seen except in the nude — wearing only a mask, boots, and gloves. Exaggerated in the last chapter of the manga: not only do all six sisters don the "costume" of Kekko Kamen at the same time, but practically the entire female student body strips down to fight the bad guys. Also used by a one-shot villain and, in one memorable occasion, Satan's Toenail and the deputy headmaster. Kekko Kamen is rather embarrassed the first time and throughly Squicked the second. | |

Mr. Fanservice: Mr. Schwartzen. It's even exploited by him when he fights Kekko Kamen, using his good looks and big muscles to give her a taste of her own medicine by making her too distracted by how sexy he is to fight back. Fortunately, the other Chigusa Yuka is immune to his own sex appeal and is able to beat him effortlessly. | |

Mythology Gag: Just as the identity of Moonlight Mask was never explicitely revealed and simply had a character implied to be him, in this adaptation Kekko Kamen's identity is not revealed but Chigusa Yuka, who in the manga was one of the suspects, shows more than a few resemblances with Kekko Kamen. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Upon being told by Satan's Toenail that Kekko Kamen taking down the teachers to protect Mayumi could impair the lessons, study-obsessed student Igagari comes to the conclusion Mayumi hired Kekko Kamen to ruin his grade average and keep him from being hired in a high-paying job once he completes his studies. Upon recovering from the shock caused by his rant, Satan's Toenail wonders if he's stupid or what. | |

Keiko Natsuwada (the only sympathetic teachers) even pointed out that you can be hired at Sparta Academy only with a Class-A licence before rattling off the enormous skillset she had to learn to achieve her Class-A PE teaching licence. | |

Defeat by Modesty | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_66d4d0e6 | comment |
Defeat by Modesty: This actually happens multiple times: The topless, jungle woman villainess Mako Makimura is defeated this way after Kekko Kamen pulls off her loincloth, making her cover her privates and turning her into a much easier opponent for the naked heroine. This happens again when she decides to imitate Kekko Kamen by coming out wearing nothing but a mask, allowing her to overpower our heroine until the mask gets broken. One of the teachers tried to cause it with Kekko Kamen: having realized she copes with her nudity by hiding her face and identity but can actually be embarrassed, he had put a series of mirrors in the room before the only entrance to his private punishment room, hoping to embarrass her to the point she'd grab the pants he had left there and get stung by the poisoned stingers he had put inside. It fails... Because the pants were so ugly Kekko Kamen would have felt more embarrassed wearing them, so she powered through and killed the teacher before collapsing into a blushing mess. Ai Sapphire creates for herself a secret identity similar to Kekko Kamen, but wears a ribbon over her crotch because she's too embarrassed. This leads to her defeat in her first outing, as when she tries to distract the punishment teachers by jumping at them with open legs they are not distracted, so they manage to pin her down and embarrass her into surrender when they remove the ribbon. She later gets over it. Satan's Toenail's niece Akemi goes around with her prosperous breast exposed, so she seems impossible to defeat this way — then an almost defeated Kekko Kamen has her uncle trip and take off her entire dress and hits her while she's too embarrassed to react. | |

Villain Has a Point: While in the manga Mayumi is targeted by the teachers mostly due a combination of horrid luck and being the first person rescued by Kekko Kamen, here her grades are genuinely bad and would get on the teachers' bad side even in a normal school. Then again, part of her troubles at studying come from the teachers' antics (the first punishment she gets is when Teacher Ben drags everyone out in the middle of the night for a surprise test and she can't keep herself awake), and the fourth OVA hints she's not the worst student at Sparta Academy. | |

Internal Deconstruction | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_74911014 | comment |
Internal Deconstruction: Chapter 7 has a teacher correctly guess that the title heroine must actually be pretty embarrassed by her own schtick. He leaves a bunch of mirrors up to confront her with her own lack of dress, counting on her being embarrassed enough to put on a pair of booby-trapped pants he left out. She admits that if they weren't so ugly, she might have put them on. Sparta Academy is already a deconstruction of Japan's hardcore study/work culture, but Igagari is a deconstruction of the students having to study for so long and hard. He has a heart attack after seeing Kekko Kamen because of the poor health he has already developed from willful overwork and he realizes he has wasted so much of his life and not noticed anything else besides studying, like girls. At one point, Kekko's habit of launching herself at the enemy genitals first gets her struck hard there by a female opponent who wasn't distracted by it. | |

Laser-Guided Karma: Satan's Toenail and the disciplinary teachers bragged more than once that nobody would look in the death of a student because there's a high suicide rate due the enormous stress. In the Grand Finale it turns out that not only the police and the Ministry of Education had started wondering why the apparent best school in Japan had such a high student suicide rate, the Kekko Kamen sisters were actually investigating for them, and they've finally obtained a ministerial decree to shut down the school. | |

In a rather "unusual" example, the female students grow progressively desensitized to be naked in public and the various sexually charged punishments inflicted on them by the teachers, with Mayumi once saying that, just that once, Kekko Kamen had arrived too soon because she was enjoying it (cue Flat "What"). | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Chigusa Yuka being actually a pair of twins that shares Kekko Kamen's identity is hinted at in all four OVAs, but as the production stopped with the second pair it was Left Hanging. | |

Collective Identity | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_ae8038f1 | comment |
Chigusa Yuka or rather the twin sisters Chigusa and Yuka, Koichi Omote, Keiko Natsuwada, Kaori Wakatsuki and Kei Kurenai share the same body type, eye shape and color, and eyebrows, with all of them except Kaori being suspected to be Kekko Kamen at least once. They're sisters who share Kekko Kamen's identity. | |

The Lad-ette: Keiko Natsuwata, the short-haired, masculine, P.E. teacher who knows all about martial arts and doesn't mind using them on people who try to hurt her or her students. She is actually thought to be Kekko Kamen for this reason. | |

Costume Copycat: In one chapter, Kekko Kamen is framed by a naked masked woman (un)dressed like her who commits a robbery, and this leads the heroine to confront the woman to clear her name. | |

All Amazons Want Hercules | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_c0fda9f6 | comment |
All Amazons Want Hercules: Surprisingly enough, Kekko Kamen is extremely attracted to Heroic Builds, to the point she was initially helpless against Schwartzen because she was too turned on to fight, thought she can beat him once Chigusa Yuka gives her a blindfold. As in the second fight Kekko Kamen was able to maul him even after removing the blindfold, it's implied that only one of the Chigusa Yuka twins is this trope and they merely switched for the fight, with the second using the blindfold to justify the change. | |

Insane Troll Logic | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_c5f0119c | comment |
Insane Troll Logic: Two examples: Biology teacher Mr. Ben, somehow, comes to the conclusion that Mayumi is a cat because when he tried to dissect her pet cat Miitan she called it "her best friend", and only a cat can have a cat as best friend. Upon being told by Satan's Toenail that Kekko Kamen taking down the teachers to protect Mayumi could impair the lessons, study-obsessed student Igagari comes to the conclusion Mayumi hired Kekko Kamen to ruin his grade average and keep him from being hired in a high-paying job once he completes his studies. Upon recovering from the shock caused by his rant, Satan's Toenail wonders if he's stupid or what. | |

Fan Disservice | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_c660bc15 | comment |
Also used by a one-shot villain and, in one memorable occasion, Satan's Toenail and the deputy headmaster. Kekko Kamen is rather embarrassed the first time and throughly Squicked the second. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Many, oh, so many: The entire series is one big one to Moonlight Mask (Gekko Kamen, geddit?), Japan's first tokusatsu hero. The theme song of Kekko Kamen (written by Go Nagai himself for the manga) is even a slightly rewritten version of "Who Is Moonlight Mask?" with a different melody, and the series also provides the first Villain of the Week (based on the character implied to be Moonlight Mask) and Satan's Toenail himself (based on one of the villains). The various Villains of the Week are thinly veiled parodies of the characters of various manga, anime, film series and telefilm, including Nagai's own Harenchi Gakuen. Then in the Grand Finale Nagai threw away any pretense of subtlety and introduced Super Golden Batman, who flat-out admits he's the son of the Golden Age Superman, Golden Bat, and Batman (even Kekko Kamen is weirded out when he meets him). | |

Red Herring: In the first episode Chigusa Yuka was implied to be Kekko Kamen, only for Kekko Kamen to appear the same time as her. Actually Subverted: as any manga reader knows, Chigusa Yuka it's actually two twins that share the identity. | |

Naughty Tentacles: Possibly the first instance in modern media, one of the tortures Mayumi has endured was beings thrown into a fish tank packed like sardines full of octopi. After she's, rescued she laments that she wishes Kekko had taken a bit more time to do so. | |

Sidekick: Chigusa Yuka is very athletic and a skilled fighter and is quite familiar with Kekko Kamen, hinting she's this to the superheroine. Subverted because, as shown in the manga, Chigusa Yuka it's actually two twins and they're both Kekko Kamen. | |

| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_f10d3363 | comment |
Distracted by the Sexy: The whole point of Kekko Kamen's "costume": foes that would otherwise be a match for her or even stronger are distracted and can't properly fight her. It doesn't always work (and Satan's Toenail actually employs a few female combatants precisely because they wouldn't be distracted), but most of the times it does. | |

Running Gag: Characters of the Week that have been defeated apologize to the author of the work they're parodying. The variant where the original author actually answers appears three times: Osamu Tezuka appears to the Astro Boy and Princess Knight parodies to demand who they are, and Go Nagai shows up to forgive his self-parody from Shameless School. | |

| Kekko Kamen (Manga) / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Satan's Toenail's plot in the third OVA is surprisingly nice, that is bringing in the android Hanako Tanaka and having her get the students to increase their efforts through her example as a student, and even having her give private lessons to Mayumi because of her bad grades. It's only after Mayumi's grades get worse due mistaking Hanako for Kekko Kamen and being distracted by her crush on the heroine that he gets back to his usual madness. | |
