Edith Anthrope (also known as Ms.Anthrope) is a fictional character in the Captain Underpants series.

Personality

Like all the teachers in Jerome Horwitz Elementary School, she is not very nice. She is the school secretary.Her name is a pun on the word,'misanthrope'. One possible reason why Ms. Anthrope is so nasty is because she continuously is made fun of by students and staff about her belly button, which is shown to be an outie in Book 4, Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants, when she wears a crop top on a school field trip. Her usual way of hiding her belly button is by covering it with clothing, which has little effect, since her belly button sticks out so much that it is very visible even underneath the clothing. She is probably so hateful toward George and Harold for the sole purpose that, in every comic book they made with her in it, they purposely drew a bulging outie belly button to further humiliate her.

Book 3

Ms. Anthrope has little more than a cameo in this book. Her only appearance is after she had some of the Incredibly Naughty Cafeteria Ladies From Outer Space's food. George and Harold tried to convince Mr. Krupp that the staff and student body were zombie nerds. She dressed like a nerd and smelled like a zombie even before the food, so Mr. Krupp wasn't convinced. But then she ate part of his desk and moaned "Must Destroy Earth." This convinced him to investigate the Lunch Ladies.

Book 4

When Ms.Anthrope came into the staff room with the other teachers,the fan was turned on and the paste came onto their bodies and she screamed.

Book 5

When Ms. Ribble sent George and Harold to Mr. Krupp's office, Ms. Anthrope told them that Mr. Krupp was on the phone. She then made the boys copy off the Friday Memo while she went to lunch. George and Harold, however, re-did the memo to fit their own silly ideas, and passed the Memos out, making the following week very strange. She appears at Ms. Ribble's Retirement Party, where, after Mr. Krupp hands over Harold's card that makes Ms. Ribble think Mr. Krupp has proposed to her, she tells them that she will arrange everything.

Book 6

After Melvin Sneedly the Booger Boy goes on a rampage, Mr. Anthrope is captured by him. Captain Underpants rescues her, but she becomes a plot device by kissing Captain Underpants with a lot of slobber. This works the same as pouring water on his head, so Captain Underpants goes back to being Mr. Krupp, and is eaten up by the booger boy.

Book 7

When Mr.Krupp was in Melvin's body,he demanded a cup of coffee from Ms.Anthrope.She got annoyed and along with the other people whom Mr.Krupp annoyed while inside Melvin's body,she chased him at the end of Book 7.
