* In an episode of the animated AxisPowersHetalia, Germany/Italy/Japan are roasting marshmallows on the beach. In the background, soft appropriate music is playing. Germany talks about how he never wants to go home anymore now that Austria lives with him, and wonders how Austria is doing right now. Italy points out that Austria "has been right over there the whole time, you know." Pan to Austria... who is [[SorryILeftTheBGMOn playing the piano music]].
** "Oh no! Now the Spanish and Greek have started to chat to each other!"
** The "Red Devil" strip, when Germany has noticed that N. Italy has thrown the pin instead of the grenade.
** Episode 19. From Italy's training regimen to Canada's introduction to Italy failing at spying at the Allies' table (while Canada is in the background acting nonchalant and silly).
** England's drunken flailing and WaterWorks right in front of America. The next day, he's so ashamed, he wants to die and promises to give up drinking.
** All of Italy's noises. This troper likes the 'pic-ong' noise in episode three especially.
** England gets ill and America goes to check on him. And TheGrimReaper is there. HilarityEnsues.
*** In that same episode, when Hungary and Austria realize that [[DroppedABridgetOnHim Chibitalia is entering puberty.]]
** On the unintentional side of things, the [[GratuitousEnglish "English"]] preview for [[ItMakesSenseInContext America Cleans Out His Closet]]. Once this troper realized it wasn't in Japanese (hence the sudden lack of subtitles), she nearly popped a blood vessel in her eye. The line that took the cake, however, was undoubtedly. "I CAN HANDER IT."
** Japan goes on vacation with Italy to learn more about Italian culture. [[{{GotMeDoingIt}} The results]] [[{{OutOfCharacter}} must be seen]] [[{{NotSoStoic}} to believe]].
** [[{{SurprisinglyGoodEnglish}} "FUCK-ING LI-MEY."]]
** "Running Away With Su-san" was amusing enough, but then it got animated. From the sparkly, [[{{HoYay}} dating sim-esque]] title, to Finland's amazing scream at Sweden's face (with ScareChord!), to the climax, in which Sweden drapes his arm over Finland as [[{{WhatDoYouMeanItsNotAwesome}} the first movement of Beethoven's 5th Symphony plays.]]
-->"Warm now?"
-->"Terrfied now."
** From the English dub of the Meeting scene, we have gems like Switzerland saying, "MAN UP OR I'LL BEAT YOU WITH MY PEACE PRIZE!", and Germany explaining how to ask a question-
-->"Now, if you want to go, make sure you're prepared and raise your hand, but do so in a way that does not mock any salutes of my country's past."
** "FLYING MINT BUNNY! :D"
** "We don't have to kiss, do we?" "Nope! Unless you want to."
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSY_-MIs7qI France sent out PIERRE!]]
** "....they had all become [[{{PrecisionFStrike}} assholes.]] ^_^"
** "THIS WEATHERMAN IS PREDICTING A 99% CHANCE OF SHITSTORM, AND IT'S COMING RIGHT AT YA!"

* ''TengenToppaGurrenLagann'':

-->'''Simon''': You made it work out well. As expected from you, Leeron.\\
'''[[CampGay Leeron]]''': I'm not satisfied with words of praise, I want your burning heart!\\
'''Viral''': Can I kill him?\\
'''Simon''': Not now.
** Also, the increasingly bizarre faces on the member of Team Gurren (especially [[{{Gonk}} Attenborough]]) during Leeron's explanations left this troper in stitches.
** And, of course, the scene where Kamina [[IJustShotMarvinInTheFace almost shoots his own nuts off]].
** ThisTroper don't remember if the line was exactly the same in the original, or even if it [[{{Narm}} was really suppose to be funny]], but feels he must add this line of dialogue from the dub (especially thanks the completely serious way it's said):
--->'''Viral''': We took some bad damage just now. That thing is too big. I just don't think our drill is gonna be enough!\\
'''Simon''': [[WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer You mean we're gonna need to use]] [[BiggerStick an even bigger]] [[ThisIsADrill drill]]?
** The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6EO4_1t8qc US dub's blooper reel]], primarily because it has SteveBlum - [[CowboyBebop Steven]] [[BigO Jay]] [[SamuraiChamploo freaking]] [[{{Toonami}} Blum]] - ramping Leeron's CampGay [[UpToEleven up to 11]].
--->'''Yoko:''' Ug, you and your creepy toys.
--->'''Leeron:''' Honey, you couldn't ''handle'' my creepy toys.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Myq0y9Fl2A&fmt=18 This]] speaks for itself.
** The uncut version of Episode 6 -- the obligatory HotSpringsEpisode -- is absolutely freaking hysterical from start to finish, as it is literally all about Kamina's mission to see Yoko's bare breasts. Highlights include, but are not limited to: Kamina throwing hysterical screaming fits of rage every single time a chance to see the girls naked is snatched away from him; Gimmy sticking his finger ''up Simon's bum'' when ordered by Kamina to "find a hole", sending Simon flying into the air and thus able to see the nude girls for a split-second -- the sight of which prompts Kamina to smack his ''own'' bum repeatedly while demanding that Gimmy stick a finger in it; Kamina's success in eventually getting Simon to join him as an enthusiastic participant (drilling a hole in the wall while singsonging, "Drill drill drill drill...", no less) in the quest to see Yoko's breasts... and that's not even half of it.
*** The aftermath of that episode's battle. Yoko jumps up and down while the girls are cheering, and after a whole episode of it stubbornly staying on, her top flies off... to the Crowning Music usually reserved for awesome drilling-through-stuff moments. Even Lagann sports a hilarious expression.
** The show's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAAOQHhoyzA dub trailer]] had this text speed past the screen at the end:
-->"Producers are not responsible for random fits of giddy delirium. Well, okay, maybe we are, since we produced the show that induces said giddy fits of anime induced happiness, but if you watch anime you have to expect that sometimes and we're not paying to have that grin on your face surgically removed no matter what, so there. Remember to eat and take in liquid while watching marathon sessions (defined as non-stop viewing sessions lasting more than 6 hours) and PLEASE go to the bathroom if you feel the urge, that's why they invented pause buttons. Also, chew your food slowly, close your mouth while eating, bathe regularly and always say please and thank you when asking for the creamed corn. Gurren Lagann is a work of fiction and any resemblance to actual personalities is not only purely coincidental, but also indicates that people who see said resemblances are probably living way too deep in their own fantasy worlds. Do not attempt to imitate behavior or actions seen on this show, unless you are a really hot babe who wants to dress up like Yoko, in which case, we're all for it. Gurren Lagann is available at the finest video retailers, if they don't have Gurren Lagann tell them to get it for you. Now!"
** ... THEY PUT ''KITTAN'' IN CHARGE OF ''LEGAL AFFAIRS!''
** Combined with MoodWhiplash on one occasion. [[spoiler:Simon is arrested, and put in those old-school wooden handcuffs, kind of like a stockade. Cut to the wide angle, and we can see Boota is wearing a smaller but otherwise identical pair of cuffs.]]
** Boota's reaction to [[spoiler:Yoko's return. Just that shot of him running as fast as he can...]]
** Episode 7, three words: "...Who are you?" The head tilt just ''makes it''.
*** And Viral's quote "PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!" had me in stitches.
** Lagann-Hen has Lordgenome [[spoiler: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stOA_u3tWHI HAAAKAAAAIIIING]] Cathedral Lazengann]]. Also counts as a [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome crowning moment of awesome]]
** Also from Lagann-Hen. During the redone dream sequence, Kamina and Simon are chatting away, when Kittan pops out of the box, saying "Hey, hey, don't forget about me!". There's a pause where both of them stare at Kittan, and Kamina breaks the silence witha quirky "who are you again?" with the above mentioned head tilt just adding icing on the cake.

* The episode of Anime/{{Pokemon}} where James is trying to avoid being dragged back to his mansion home by Jessie and Meowth. He stalls with a tragic story about running away in his childhood, in the winter, with only his faithful Growlithe by his side. [[SnowMeansDeath Somehow it ends with him freezing to death]] [[spoiler: Dog of Flanders, anyone?]]. Cue the heartwrenching music and [[OcularGushers waterfall tears]].
-->'''Jessie''': That's such a sad ending!
-->'''Meowth''': That poor kid!
-->'''[[EyesAlwaysShut Brock]]''': I can't believe James is gone!
-->'''Ash''': I miss him!
-->'''Misty''': (the [[OnlySaneMan only one]] not crying) JAMES IS STANDING RIGHT HERE!!
** "If they built a temple to honor Psyduck, they weren't hidden -- they were ''lost''." - Brock circa season 2
** A hilarious yet shocking case of GettingCrapPastTheRadar in Lorelei's showcase episode... "I know what she's doing! It's... it's... ''perverse psychology!''"
** The ''Advance Generation'' episode ''Berry, Berry Interesting'': there's never a serious moment here. Best part is the moral: never allow [[LethalChef May]] to make food for the Pokemon.
*** This troper remembers her first try at Pokeblocks had Combusken lying face-down on the ground, they were so horrible! Well, Beautifly liked them...
*** It didn't just drop Combusken, it KO'ed Ash's ''entire team''. Not even Takuto and his team of ubers flattened then that quickly.
** During the Kanto Pokemon League...
--->'''Misty''': "You can stuff your greedy little face ''after'' we find a Pokemon Center!"
--->'''Ash''': "[[ITakeOffenseToThatLastOne My face is little]]?"
** "I am a flaming Moltres!" James finds out that, according to a horoscope-like book, his inner Pokemon is the legendary Moltres. Cue sudden burst of confidence and hilarious observations:
--->'''Meowth''': That outfit... where'd he get it?
--->'''Jessie''': I think that costume [[DoubleEntendre came right out of his closet]].
** Even though it's been used for {{Shipping}} proof, this exchange from "Poke Ball Peril" is hilarious. To set it up, Ash and Misty, who are traveling without Brock have been captured by Team Rocket and the TerribleTrio takes notice:
--->'''James''': Jessie, I think we've accidentaly captured a pair of very romantic creatures in our little cage!
--->'''Jessie''': (making lovey-dovey eyes)You mean? Daaaaawwww!
--->'''Meowth''': Dey're loveboids!
--->'''Ash''': (Ash and Misty look at each other for a second before turning away, blushing) You're crazy!
--->'''Misty''': Crazy is right! [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend Never in a million years!]]
--->'''Jessie''': (Jessie and James are doubled over while Meowth is rolling on the floor) But you're blushing!
** During one of Team Rocket's thefts at a clinic, they dress up as Swiss hikers (ridiculous accent included) with Meowth practically mummified in bandages:
--->'''Jessie''': Our precious Meowth was hurt in a [[NoodleImplements bizarre yodeling accident]]...
** It probably [[{{Narm}} wasn't SUPPOSED to be funny]], but dubs mess all sorts of things up. In the tenth movie after everyone realizes that Darkrai is [[spoiler: the good guy]], Ash says "I'm sorry, Darkrai!" Darkrai glares. (The way Ash says it sounds kind of fake, and boy can Darkrai tell.)
** Even [[PokemonSpecial the manga]] has its moments. As an example, to determine a Zigzagoon's medical condition, Sapphire [[AssShove sticks her nose up its butt]].
** The way Corphish defeats Katie's Golduck in the Hoenn League is this and possibly its CrowningMomentOfAwesome -- managing to listen to Ash while confused, it swims up behind Golduck and...cheerfully shakes its hand. Then uses Vice Grip to shake it harder, then spin it over its head, and finally throw it to the other side of the battlefield to set up for the deciding Bubblebeam. That's right -- Corphish defeated an opponent by [[{{Keet}} being]] [[{{Jerkass}} itself]].
** Despite it not being the punchline, this troper loves Misty's fake name from episode 42 of the Swedish dub:
--->'''Brock''': Caesar Sallad.
--->'''Misty''': [[IncrediblyLamePun Ann Ananas]]. (Anne Pineapple, also a possible [[ActorAllusion refence to Anna Book]], the voice actress)
--->'''Ash''': Tom Atsås. (Tom Atosauce)
*** It's even funnier in the English dub, where Misty's name is "Ann Chovie".
** "Pikachu is [[strike:unable]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eM6AGVmlbU unwilling to battle!"]]
** In Episode 157, "Gotta Get A Gible!" Gible is caught by one of Team Rocket's HumongousMecha. They jump over a canyon to get away from Ash, and he runs to the point where he ALMOST makes it over the canyon when he jumps. Ash used [=ExtremeSpeed=]! [=ExtremeSpeed=] missed!
** It hasn't aired yet in English speaking countries, but DP 164,"Pochama(Piplup) Goes Astray!" has a rather brilliant moment that serves as part of the episodes plot. Piplup always ends up on the receiving end of Gible's failed Draco Meteor attacks, and eventually has a go at it. When Gible then decides to try to nom on Piplup's head... well let's just say that the penguin Pokémon [[http://www.filb.de/anime/eppics/dp/164/page/2 finally]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmjSDkZXPzk snaps (Skip to 3:20 for the scene in question)]]. This is followed up by Piplup envisioning Ash and Dawn scolding Gible, and how Piplup sees Dawn.
*** Not to mention that, when Piplup snaps out of its delusion, we see that it's actually been nuzzling up against ''Pikachu'', who is just sitting there with a -_- look on its face. It then pats Piplup on the head in a "there there" sort of way, then runs off to be with Ash, Dawn, and Brock.
** In the episode "Where No Togepi Has Gone Before!" the main villain is a Togepi that's causing trouble. It's used Attract to take over Pikachu, Piplup, Croagunk, and Meowth. Brock's solution? Call out Happiny to smack all four of them back to normal.
** The ending to "Farewell, Team Rocket! Meowth's New Love!" has Meowth's over-the-top reaction to his love interest, a Glameow, [[spoiler: evolving into Purugly, complete with images of random large things shattering.]]
** From the first episode
--->'''Dexter''': Rattata the forest Pokemon.
--->'''Ash''': But this isn't a forest, it's an open field?
--->'''Dexter''': Sometimes it comes to open fiels to steal food from stupid travelers.

* ''HidamariSketch'', third season- During Nori and Nazuna's welcoming party, Miyako attempts to break the ice by pulling out a conversation die. The die looks inconspicuous enough, with the visible face showing "Introduce yourself". She gives it a roll... and gets "Do you like hamburgers?", to which she gives an enthusiastic "Yes!" and everyone else gives looks of bewilderment.

* ''HigurashiNoNakuKoroNi'' would like to ask, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmTNNeTZDYU "What is so wrong with guys being perverts?"]]
** It's funny because [[strike:you don't think]] it's true.
** This troper will never look at cakes the same way again.

* Inuyasha has quite a few...pretty much anytime Miroku shows his perverted side, or anytime he's called out on it, or anytime Kagome shouts "SIT!" or...
* The fifth episode of ''RozenMaiden'' covers a hysterical in-house "war" among the dolls, which Jun gets caught up in, over the theft of a strawberry. It's funny enough to make the next episode (where the villain Suigintou gets serious) verge on MoodWhiplash.
*TokyoMewMew: Ichigo's Failed attempt at speaking English. (Spanish in the dub)

** No love for [[http://www.onemanga.com/Black_Lagoon/14/07/ Eda's reaction]] when Gretel starts throwing money in her face?

* In ''ThePrinceOfTennis''... Just watch Kaidoh becoming everyone's ButtMonkey in "Kaoru's misfortune".
** And having Inui as the ButtMonkey in the OAV's? ''Even MORE hilarious''.
** Episode 71 of the anime. That's all.
** The Horror of Comedy Tennis. FULL STOP.
** Tezuka Zone. Dinosaurs. 'Nuff said.
** The revelation about [[spoiler: Atobe]]'s wig.
** The entire Yakiniku episode, but particularly Shishido's "HeroicSacrifice" (complete with Ohtori's "[[SayMyName SHISHIDO-SAAAAAAN!!!]] ;-;") and when Tezuka accidentally yanks down Inui's pants.
*** ''Any time'' Inui loses his pants, in fact.
** ''All'' of the chibi episodes, and the "[insertnameofsport] no oujisama" ones. Ooishi tends to get especially funny in them (like in the bowling episode, and when he's the mom in the chibi family episodes...). Also, Tezuka and bonsais... And most of the mini-dramas in the radio program.

*[[LupinIII Lupin III]]: [[FUNimation FUNimation's]] DVD release of "Voyage to Danger" contains an audio-only easter egg with [[spoiler:Lupin and Zenigata (voiced by [[SonnyStrait Sonny Strait]] and Phillip Wilburn, respectively) singing the theme song whilst being drunk]].
