Kanako Miyamae Does Not Like Men, to the point of breaking out in hives when she comes in contact with them. Hoping to find her true (female) love interest, she attends Ame no Kisaki Girls' School where her parents met. Except she missed the school and wandered onto a private estate. As if fate had led her there, she sees a perfect girl before her and falls in love at first sight.Fate really enjoys toying with people. Mariya Shidou, her perfect girl, is actually a boy in disguise, the grandson of the school's ex-chairwoman, and is one hell of a dick. In order to keep herself from being kicked out of the school, Kanako is forced to cooperate with Mariya against her will.Maria†Holic is a seinen manga by Minari Endou, which ran in Monthly Comic Alive from 2006 to 2014. It was adapted into an anime for the early 2009 season by Studio Shaft, which means another layer of randomness is added to what's already there. Sentai Filmworks licensed the anime for release in February 2010, while Tokyopop released the manga in English. A second season of the anime aired as part of the Spring 2011 anime season.Initially released sub-only by Sentai Filmworks in 2010, it got an all new English Dub in January 2014 (featuring Monica Rial and Jessica Calvello working together for the first time since Excel♡Saga, 11 years earlier).Compare and contrast: Otoboku - Maidens Are Falling For Me and The Beautiful Skies of Houou High. Has nothing to do with ×××HOLiC or SOUND HOLIC.A character page is under construction. | |

Half-Identical Twins | |

Half-Identical Twins: Shizu, Mariya's twin sister who looks all but identical, except she's an actual girl (and is Mariya's complete opposite personality-wise). Also, Mariya has a mole under his left eye, while Shizu has one under her right. | |

All Men Are Perverts | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_129749df | comment |
All Men Are Perverts: Almost all males so far have at least some perversion. An exception is Mariya: his crossdressing seems more tied into his planet-sized ego. And despite being in an all-girls' school, he's never actually done anything with it. If anyone's a pervert, it'd be Kanako (Good Lord, it'd be Kanako...) | |

One-Gender School: The main setting, Ame no Kisaki Girls' School. The series as a whole is a parody of works in the Yuri Genre that are set in similar all-girls' schools. It's later revealed that Shizu attends a nearby all-boys' school while disguised as a boy. | |

The Cameo: (deep breath) Cures Peach, Berry & Pine, Miku & Rin, Number 6, Yumi & Sachiko, Sae, Hiro, & Yuno, and Kaede, Meru and Kafuka. All in one episode. Not to mention (pitch black skinned versions of) Houki, Cecilia, Rin, Charlotte and Laura in episode 2 of Alive. Cure Peach and Berry return in the 7th episode of Alive during Kanako's swimsuits dream, but this time their hair colours are switched: Berry's is blond and Peach's is blue. | |

"Do It Yourself" Theme Tune | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_20b5cce7 | comment |
"Do It Yourself" Theme Tune: The opening for both seasons ("Hanaji" and "Runrunriru Ranranrara") are sung by Yuu Kobayashi, and the second season's opening for the first 2 episodes ("Mousou Senshi Miyamae Kanako") is by Tomokazu Sugita. The two seasons' ending themes, however, are covers of Yellow Magic Orchestra's "Kimi ni, Mune Kyun" and Linda Yamamoto's "Dounimo Tomaranai", as sung by Kobayashi, Asami Sanada and Marina Inoue. | |

Wardrobe Malfunction: Poor Ayari suffered this... twice. Both incidents even happened at the same feast. The first was as a child, when Shizu (then posing as Mariya) stumbled on her and accidentally revealed her panda-print panties. The second was as a teenager, after Mariya saved her from falling off her float. Cue pan-down shot of Ayari's breasts and Kanako staining the statue of the Virgin Mary with her epic nosebleed. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Mariya, while a big jerk, sometimes shows a genuinely nicer side. He doesn't mind having to take heat from Ayari on Shizu's behalf after the latter accidentally exposed Ayari's panties as children, is willing to cede chairmanship to Shizu, saves Ayari from falling off her float, and, despite enjoying torturing Kanako psychologically and emotionally, he frequently gives her helpful advice. Of course, he's quick to explain away all these rare instances of kindness on his part as a façade-maintaining measure. His heart of gold is showing out more in Alive. For instance, he always bails Kanako out of problems she accidentally caused herself, even if he need not to, like her dilemma over her gift for Sachi for the latter's birthday and the conundrum that arose concerning her own birthday when she was unwittingly leading people on. Also despite making fun of Kanako for being a lesbian, he doesn't seem to really mind it, being more disgusted by her perverted urges. He even tries to stop her when they are about to go out of controll like in episode 10. | |

Comedic Sociopathy | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_4a4d6f7c | comment |
Comedic Sociopathy: Mariya psychologically harasses Kanako with zest, partly so she wouldn't reveal his secret, but partly for the pure amusement. This involves things like showering Kanako with gasoline and waving around a lighter, until Kanako "apologizes for her behavior". Kanako is practically reduced to a obedient serf by a mix of blackmailing, bullying and seduction. Remarkably, the show manages to remain a tongue-in-cheek comedy. | |

Not Distracted by the Sexy: Mariya has shown no perverse inklings at all despite the opportunities his venture could present. Hell, beyond taking the time and effort to mess with Kanako (and maybe Shizu and Father Kanae), he's a model student and an Onee-sama to boot. | |

The Seven Mysteries | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_5f6b941c | comment |
The Seven Mysteries: Kanako is responsible for all of them, generally due to profuse nosebleeding. Kumagai-sensei later tells her that the school's seven mysteries change annually, but seven other mysteries about God have never changed, ranging from the genuinely mysterious ("How old is she?") to mundane Fridge Logic ("Why are Virtual Boys not banned along with the other electronics?": she later claims she likes things with a tragic history...). If anyone happens to learn all seven mysteries, the dorm manager will do... well, something, anyway. | |

Tsundere: Matsurika refers to herself as "100% tsun with no dere at all." Kanako herself calls Mariya one (at least deep in her head) given Mariya's behavior towards his female relatives (e.g., twin sister Shizu and cousin Ayari). He also tends to explain away any good behavior towards his classmates as a face-saving measure for him and/or the school, possibly in order to cover-up his deep-seated sense of kindness. Of course, he'll complain all the while... even as he saved Ayari from falling off a float during a Catholic festival. Kanako also refers to Honoka as one. | |

Medium Awareness | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_884e513b | comment |
Medium Awareness: When one episode has pop-up notes on idioms and other random factoids, Mariya and Matsurika somehow become aware of them towards the end of the episode. Mariya himself indicates he cosplays in maid and Naughty Nurse Outfits to provide fanservice during an episode, noting how little screentime he's gotten. In the omake at the end of volume 1, Kanako states that she's just read through the volume itself, and Mariya answers a letter from a male reader who asks Mariya to marry him, and responds in no uncertain terms how he feels about such propositions. In episode 4 of Alive, Kanako comes to the conclusion that Mariya is prosecuting her because he wants her spot as the main character of the show (which isn't helped by the fact that his name is on the title). Matsurika just tells her that it's the least of her concerns. In episode 8 of Alive, Mariya and Matsurika are so disgusted with Kanako that they revoke her right to speak for the entirety of the next episode. Sure enough, she's being prevented from doing so. | |

Heir to the Dojo | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_9235ee1b | comment |
Heir to the Dojo: Their late grandmother's will subjects Mariya and Shizu to an inheritance competition in which both are to attend single-sex schools (both of which their grandmother once served as chairwoman) whose gender population is opposite theirs and under each other's names. Thus, Shizu attends the all-female Ame no Kisaki as "Mariya", while Mariya attends the all-male Mihoshi no Mori as "Shizu". Whoever keeps their gender secret for the next three years wins chairmanship for both. Shizu claimed victory due to Kanako learning of Mariya's gender. The latter, however, pulls off a comeback victory due to an indisputable technicality: Kanako learned of his gender before he attended school (and is currently blackmailing her into keeping it a secret), while she learned of Shizu's while she's already in school. Nevertheless, he's willing to overlook this technical victory in favor of Shizu... by asking her to kiss his feet. | |

Year Inside, Hour Outside: For failing all of her tests, Kanako was sent by God to... somewhere so she can spend a year studying for everything. She comes back a week later with lampshades abound about how long it felt for her and the various changes that happened in the interim. Turns out most of the "changes" were set up in some way by Mariya just to mess with Kanako's head, or by sheer misunderstanding. | |

Surreal Theme Tune | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_a71980f8 | comment |
Surreal Theme Tune: The OP tune itself is mostly straightforward, but the imagery associated with it in the title sequence pushes it into absurd territory. The theme tune is sung from the point of view of a young lesbian who is tortured by a Creepy Crossdresser. Except it's sung by Yuu Kobayashi (Mariya). It would fit as a mockery by Mariya. The second season turns it up another notch by essentially having a Tokusatsu song as an opening theme. | |

Hypocritical Humor: Kanako states that she hates those who "get excited by high school girls exposing a bit more skin due to the seasonal change of attire." Considering what she just did a bit earlier in the episode... There's also Mariya constantly insulting Kanako for being a disgusting pervert. Coming from a guy who seems to have come to enjoy his life in drag. | |

Cool and Unusual Punishment: For her crime of biting Yonakuni (which, as he is a pet, is counted as personal property damage in Japan), the jury for Kanako's trial in the fourth episode of Alive sentences her to... a night getting lectured by Father Kanae.

Nosebleed: Kanako. Frequently and with such force that she rivals Ikuto. Also the name of the first season's opening theme, for that very reason. When she volunteers to help with the girls' physical examinations she actually ends up in the infirmary after blacking out from blood loss. Stains the left cheek of a statue of the Virgin Mary with her blood after seeing Ayari's Wardrobe Malfunction (and consequently becoming one of their school's Seven Mysteries). And she turns the whole world red from a nosebleed in season 1's final episode. | |

Sparkling Stream of Tears: Several times, by various characters, complete with incredibly overwrought music. | |

Brick Joke | |

Brick Joke: The pendant is noted as being significant in an early episode and in the very last; it's subverted because we only get to see Shizu gasp in shock upon seeing it and the show ends before she can say anything about it. | |

Shown Their Work | |
| Maria†Holic (Manga) / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: The writers are aware of what Christianity is, and a rare serious moment has Ayari explaining to Kanako just who "Maria-sama" is; the origins of Christmas, and how non-Christian (like most Japanese) students get along with the Catholic school's nuns-and-rosaries environment. (Even if one isn't praying to a specific God, you can be thinking about friends or loved ones, or reflect on your behavior with others.) Also, it's explicitly stated that the nuns do not force their beliefs on anyone. Alive also mentions how crash dieting isn't helpful and often just leads to problems and one can possibly rebound, and gives a basic outline of how dieting should actually go (namely [paraphrasing Mariya]: following a sensible plan, cutting back caloric intake and exercising properly). The entirety of the next episode is dedicated to the consequences of Kanako's forced diet. | |
