* AntiHumor - The show's particular brand of surreal humor often verges into this.

* JustForPun -- All things pun-related are thoroughly skewered. Why is the city of Tozeken shaped like a fish? Because the characters for "Tozeken" are the characters for "big-ass fish" upside down! ''Of course!''[[note]]That is, the characters in Zokainese. A language and writing system that does not exist.[[/note]]
** Another example is the apple sequence in episode 11.

* {{Tsundere}} -- This is apparently a socially acceptable way for the Zokainese to express affection for each other. More worryingly, so is being a {{Yandere}}.

* '''SurrealHumor'''

A rather strange web series that is a send-up of wacky SliceOfLife anime such as ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'' and ''{{Nichijou}}''. More properly, it's a parody of things that get {{lost in translation}} in media between one culture and the next, using the standard slice-of-life formula as a framework to do this, the jokes are incredibly surreal, often bordering on {{anti humor}} at times. The show itself follows the day-to-day exploits of [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} space cadet]] highschooler Gazunzun Zu'Bye and her circle of friends as they slack off through their high school career. If that sounds fairly typical, it's not. Gazunzun and co. live in an alternate universe where the continents are arranged differently, and in a nation called Zokai. Zokai's culture is a bizarre mashup of Japanese and American pop culture combined with flat-out weirdness, and much of it is never explained directly to the viewer, making what are technically puns and "pop culture references" totally nonsensical. Of course, ''these'' often ''are'' [[DontExplainTheJoke explained to the viewer]], [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext which frequently only makes things more confusing]]. The show is produced by Scribblebook Animation & Art.

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}} - Gazunzun is this. Strangely, the only things she does that seem to ever get a reaction out of anyone are things that we would consider normal.

--> ''You ate noodles with a fork?!''

* LostInTranslation -- This, and all related subtropes -- are lampooned endlessly. With frequent "translator's notes" appearing onscreen to explain what's been "lost". In actuality, these are rarely more than non-sequiturs. A good example is the aforementioned apple scene, wherein a character expresses confusion over whether or not apple pie is made with apples or dog meat. This is "explained" by the notes as "apple" and "dog" being the same word in Zokainese.
