Bamboo Blade/YMMV


 * Alas, Poor Villain: Episode 20 opens with a Show Within a Show example in Shinaider.
 * Crack Pairing: on fanfiction, one of the strongest of these is Toyama x Kirino.
 * Ear Worm: The opening. Of both the show proper and the Show Within a Show.
 * Here's the opening song, and the ending song. It can get pretty addicting to listen to after hearing it a few times.
 * The ending as well, after listening to it one too many times. "I'm calling the Star Rise..."
 * Les Yay: Depending on how you interpret Saya and Kirino's Romantic Two-Girl Friendship. The scene late in the anime when Saya,, pushes Kirino down onto her bed is especially fraught.
 * Moe: Tama-chan all the way!!
 * Nightmare Fuel: Reimi. Her Leitmotif sounds like bending metal mixed with static.
