Daria Morgendorffer: Difference between revisions

Line 187:
 
* [[Angela Li|Principal Li]] is Daria's other main foe and, unlike O'Neill, deliberately malevolent: the two have clashed, both verbally and all-out, on occasions. Li is eager to use Daria's academic achievements for the benefit of the school and, along with every other student, force and threaten her into "volunteering" and schemes. Daria will sometimes push back and sometimes brings down Li's schemes outright ("[[This Year's Model]]") and a number of times has had to clear up or navigate a mess Li's made ("[[Just Add Water]]", "[[Antisocial Climbers]]"). The principal had to begrudgingly give Daria an award for academic achievement at graduation and was ''very'' unhappy about it, while Jane was surprised Daria didn't assault Li with the award.
 
* Back at Highland High, [[Mr. Van Driessen]] made favourable comments about Daria's work ("[[U. S. History]]") and required her aid in "[[Beavis and Butt-head issue 27|The Great Bungholio]]", while Daria seemed concerned for him when he was injured in (non-speaking part episode) "Field Trip"; [[Coach Buzzcut]] leaves his stuff with her when he has to take potentially fatal action in "[[Water Safety]]"; and early science teacher [[Mrs. Dickie]] ignored Daria's protests and forced her to work with Beavis and Butt-head in "[[Scientific Stuff]]", saying it'd be a "learning experience" (did Daria piss her off at some point?).
 
While Daria doesn't think much of any of her teachers, at least during S1 - in "The Daria Diaries" she says she respects her superiors "if only I could find any", in regards to the faculty - the ''teachers'' often seem to think a lot of ''her'', with a few exceptions (Morris and Li) who are corrupt and powerful figures.
