A [[Wayback Machine]] archive copy from 2013 can be read [https://web.archive.org/web/20130127084732/http://tyrantking.net/yukari-is-free/ here].
'''Season 1'''- The first season began with Yukari Tanizaki suddenly deciding to kill her class, and their attempts to stop her/escape. The story then moved into the afterlife, as one by one the students either fell victim to her or to their own stupidity, and they began trying to find a way to return to Earth before it came time for their souls to be judged and assigned to an eternity in either Heaven or Hell.

'''Season 2'''- After successfully returning to Earth with no memories of the afterlife, the group faces an evil alternate dimension version of Chiyo-chan followed by a nation-wide zombie apocalypse. Tomo's sister [[Yotsubato|Torako]] joins the cast, Kaorin becomes an antagonist when Sakaki rejects her to be with Kagura, and Torako and Tardboy accidentally become porn stars after a video conference system films them having sex and broadcasts it all over Japan. After a series of close calls, which included the collapse of Japanese society, they are finally able to reach safety and are evacuated to Hawaii.

'''Season 2.5'''- A [[Breather Episode]], with the cast now living in Hawaii. Torako and Tardboy are trying to get used to being celebrities, and Tomo and Yomi are trying to film a porno of their own to get a piece of the action. Meanwhile a remnant of the evil Chiyo awakens and begins exerting control, Asagi begins trying to force Tomo into being her submissive sex partner like her sister was before her, Kagura becomes a celebrity in her own right, and Nyamo reveals that she is pregnant after drunkenly having sex with Kagura's father in Season 2. The season comes to an abrupt end when Tardboy is kidnapped, and Torako is shot and nearly killed trying to protect him.

The season comes to an abrupt end when Tardboy is kidnapped, and Torako is shot and nearly killed trying to protect him.
'''Season 3'''- The longest yet. Things are kicked off when Kagura is kidnapped by the same group who took Tardboy, leading the group back to Japan to rescue them both. Once there they encounter post-apocalyptic mech gangs, communist terrorist organizations, missing friends and family members, evil robot scientists, and the United States military, not to mention the big bad villain of them all: a nefarious clone-spawning pornography company straight out of Hell. The season finally ends with the cessation of hostilities between the United States and Japan, and much of the cast's evacuation (or return, in some cases) to Hawaii.

Not to be confused with [[Touhou|Yukari Yakumo]] [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|is free.]]
Line 56 ⟶ 58:
* [[Canon Discontinuity]]: Shin-Chiyo's rampage across North America, resulting in widespread destruction across the central United States and the separation of Florida from the rest of the landmass. (At which point it [[Artistic License Geology|drifts off into the ocean]].)
** [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Knuckles and Robotnik]] in Season 2? What are you talking about?
* [[CannotCan't StandLive with Them, CannotCan't Live Without Them]]: Sums up Yanda's feelings for Asagi.
* [[Catgirl]]: Two of them: the Catgirl News Anchor is just an anchorwoman wearing fake cat ears, while Hula Hoop is a Feline-Human Hybrid created by a [[Mad Scientist]] via splicing the DNA of his daughter and his cat.
* [[The Chew Toy]]: Kagura in Season 2 and up until {{spoiler|her death and resurrection}} in Season 3; Fuuka, Shimauu, and Sergeant Greene played the role for the remainder of the season.
Line 160 ⟶ 162:
* [[Made of Explodium]]: Turtles, apparently.
* [[Magical Girl]]: Padudu would easily qualify. Kokoro seems to be this, as much as she [[A Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Read|doesn't want to]].
* [[May-DecemberMay–December Romance]]: Ryusuke is at least twelve years older than Nyamo.
** Saburo Motani, age 32, and his quasi-girlfriend Yoko Tsumura, age 21, also qualify.
** And as a particularly creepy example, Yukari's relationship with Kyoto; she's 29, and he was ''15.''
* [[Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy]]: Tardboy and Torako.
* [[Mega Crossover]]: With ''[[YotsubatoYotsuba&!]]'','' [[Code Geass]]'','' [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'','' [[Full Metal Panic!]]'','' [[Touhou]]'', and ''[[Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex]]'', just to name a few.
* [[Men Are the Expendable Gender]]: If only one of a character's parents are revealed to have survived the [[Zombie Apocalypse]], odds are overwhelmingly in favor of it being the mother. With the exception of Ryusuke, fathers seem to survive as a set with their wives or not at all.
* [[The Milky Way Is the Only Way]]: Averted; intergalactic distances seem to pose no problem at all to the most widely-used methods of [[Faster-Than-Light Travel]].
Line 175 ⟶ 177:
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood]]: Ai only ever seems to refer to Sergeant Greene as "Twinkie."
* [[Near-Death Experience]]: {{spoiler|Torako}} at the end of Season 2.5 when she is shot trying to prevent {{spoiler|Tardboy}}'s abduction, and in Season 3 {{spoiler|Ai}} is shot defending the Dai Kagurren from BLU Team and {{spoiler|Sergeant Greene}} is shot by {{spoiler|Yukari}}. All come very close to dying, and one even winds up in the afterlife for a few minutes.
** Kokoro had one when she was gutpunched by Torako for endangering the entire group's lives. She had a brief out of body experience, and then it [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene|was never spoken of again]].
* [[NGO Superpower]]: The cast could almost be considered one of these, what with their fleet of [[Humongous Mecha]], [[Airborne Aircraft Carrier]], [[Cool Starship]], and the presence of at least one [[Person of Mass Destruction]] among their ranks.
* [[Nice Guy]]: Member 2, Koiwai, and Ryusuke Kagura fall under this, and Sergeant Greene could be considered a female example.
Line 209 ⟶ 211:
* [[Sex Slave]]: [[Big Bad|The Boss]] was planning to turn Tardboy and Kagura into these, essentially forcing them to have sex on camera in order to sell more porn DVDs.
* [[Ship Tease]]
* [[Shout-Out]]: To ''[[Achewood]], [[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]], [[Firefly]]'', and far too many others to list.
* [[Sibling Seniority Squabble]]: A bit of a one-sided example with Tomo and Torako. Tomo is constantly reminding everyone that she is a full ''four minutes'' older than Torako, to compensate for the fact that her sister is otherwise taller, more mature, arguably smarter, and can easily trounce her in a fight. Torako just goes along with it, since she doesn't like being at the top of the totem pole anyway.
* [[Sibling Yin-Yang]]: Again, Tomo and Torako Takino.
Line 249 ⟶ 251:
** Rei is currently occupying it as well.
* [[Wrench Wench]]: Yumi and Haru.
* [[Yandere (disambiguation)]]: Chihiro, after hooking up with Sakakuro, before Season 3.5.
** Kaorin, and her trying to kill Kagura for "stealing Sakaki" from her. Enough said.
* [[Zombie Apocalypse]]: Most of Season 2.
