History WebVideo / AvatarTheAbridgedSeries

* ArmorIsUseless: "This papier-mâché armor is useless!"

'''Zuko:''' Uncle, I think I need a new pair of underwear.

--> "They're all lined up in a straight line with their guns pointed the same way... they're probably French."

* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Episode 9 again.
-->"Now that we can conveniently move, I have a convenient plan that conveniently involves these convenient vats of perfume they conveniently make at this temple!"
-->"How convenient!"
-->'''Bumi:''' So in other words, they went postal! Get it? Postal, mail delivery system...
** Yes? No? Maybe? Lobster?

* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Zuko
-->'''Aang:''' I don't even really have to dodge. He just kind of misses."

* NaughtyNuns: Once again, Episode 9
-->'''Sokka:''' Wow Bato, the nuns let you stay here for ''free?!''
-->'''Bato:''' Let's just say they haven't exactly seen a man in a while...

-->'''Pakku:''' Ohohoho!!!! Oh, you sure showed me lass! Ohoho--CHRIST ON A CRACKER!!!

* SarcasmMode- "''Sarcastic'' skepticism"

-->'''Sokka:''' LetMeGetThisStraight: you can invent tanks (invented 1915), jet skis (invented 1973), and a gi-''gantic'' friggin' ''drill'' (invented [[YearX 20XX]])... but the concept of a ''hot air balloon''(invented 1783)... eluuuuudes you. ...I hate this world and everyone in it.

--> '''Jeong Jeong:''' [[Franchise/StarWars Only a master of evil, Zhao]]

--> '''Katara''': *angry* You will be in a second!
* SideEffectsInclude: The side effects for Haru's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44yrY9YO3tc&list=PL2E5F4D8CC665D8FB&index=4&feature=plpp_video Sexyfine Shampoo]] are as follows: "Headaches, blood clots, green rashes, gonorrhea, albinism, thumb cancer, chocolate cravings, heroin addiction, pregnancy, ear mutation, increased risk of cyborg koala attack, the apocalypse, and Zutara." Your Millage May Vary if that last one is a case of ArsonMurderAndJaywalking or not.

* BringMyBrownPants: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24uo7dUf8hk Episode 5]].

-->'''Sokka:''' Oh c'mon, [[TemptingFate the writers don't hate me that muuuu....]]

* LeetLingo: from the generic "ROFLMAO learn to play n00bs!" (ep 5) to the less common "TTFN!" (ep 9).

* ManOfAThousandVoices

* WellDoneSonGuy: Zuko ("Time to make Daddy love me!")

-->'''Jin:''' You're lucky you're hot, you know that?

-->'''Sokka:''' Well Aang, because when I'm being pursued by people who want to kill me, I'd rather throw them off by walking through a dense forest than ''fly through an empty sky on a giant freaking bison''!
-->'''Katara:''' That may make sense, but since you're trying to be the leader, I'm guessing this is gonna fail horribly.

--->'''Bato:''' You should try to find your friend Aang.
--->''(One transition later, Sokka and Katara are being chased by a mercenary)''
--->'''Sokka:''' Why do I ever listen to ''anybody!?''

* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Steam. Powered. Jet. Skis.

* PunctuatedForEmphasis: "Give! Me! My! ''CHOCOLATE!''"

* StayInTheKitchen: Master Paku believes that if woman aren't healers or summoners they should be this.
--> Master Pakku: '''"So go learn to heal or get in the kitchen and make some babies!"''

* StockScream: there's a Wilhelm early in ep. 9.
* TemptingFate: "Wow, what a normal and uneventful day we're having, surely ''nothing exciting and life-changing could hap-'' "

-->'''Aang:''' So you think you're hot shit, huh, but I got news for yo' punk ass! You ain't got nothin'! Ho ho, what is this, loop-de-loops? Get that J.V. shit outta here, son!

*** He's handicapable.

* WhatTheHellHero: Aang gets the recieving end of this for laughs in episodes 9 with the map (''Then they wouldn't be paying attention to ME!!'') and in episode 10 with Aang trash-talking Teo (you remember, the kid in the wheelchair.)
-->'''Sokka''': ''Wow, Aang! You're an ass!''

* WrongGenreSavvy: Master Paku. His sexism is now a combination of StayInTheKitchen and the expectation that female protagonists must [[Franchise/FinalFantasy remain in the back row and heal or summon monsters.]]

--> '''Katara:''' "Well, at least we know we weren't in any real danger."
--> '''Bumi:''' "Oh no, I was ''definitely'' going to kill you."

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: All of the original uploads have been taken down from [=GanXingba=]'s channel by Viacom, and the series only survives on Youtube through low quality reuploads. Bonus clips, such as ''Zuzu's Date'', are nowhere to be found and could be considered lost.

*** Which in itself calls back a similar shout-out in Antfish's own series where Abdul has an ImagineSpot where he is crowned as "Fire Lord Abdul," and when he's snapped out of it, he screams "I WILL DESTROY THE AVATAR!" Aang, voiced by Gangxingba, pops in and adds his disapproval of this plan.

* PunctuatedForEmphasis: "Give... me... that... chocolate!"

--> '''Jin:''' You know what? Let's go back to my place and screw like rabbits!

--> '''Zuko''': I don't think rabbits can operate screwdrivers without opposable thumbs.

* CallingTheOldManOut: Katara calling out Master Paku about his ideals of female fighters

--> Master Paku: '''"So go learn to heal or get in the kitchen and make some babies!"''

'''Aang:''' Please. I'm the Avatar. You can't even bend! You don't stand a- (''crashes into tree with a loud thud'') Okay, seriously, ''what the crap''? [[WhoWritesThisCrap Who wrote this episode?]] [[spoiler: It was Zuko.]]

* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: Yeah, Aang's gonna go play with penguins now. Yeah, penguins, yeah!

* FunnyBackgroundEvent: In Episode 6, when the kids are cheering for Jet's speech, you can hear someone say 'sieg
heil' among the cheers. May also double as CrossesTheLineTwice.

* FunnyBackgroundEvent: In Episode 6, when the kids are cheering for Jet's speech, you can hear someone say 'sieg heil' among the cheers. May also double as CrossesTheLineTwice.

* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: In the first episode, Sokka, Aang and Zuko all mention the "iceberg pinata" explanation for a HumanPopsicle. Later, we learn that Aang and Zuko are both amazingly obsessed with eating Lucky Charms for breakfast.

* CutAndPasteTranslation: Will rearrange the order of episodes, paste two [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcIlpeaR48I (or more)]] episodes as one, and radically alter some plots instead of just abridging them. But this is likely more for RuleOfFunny than anything else.

[[http://avatarabridged.com/ Had its own website]] (now defunct). And then [[ScrewedByTheLawyers Viacom blocked the entire series, at least in North America]]

-->'''Sokka:''' LetMeGetThisStraight: you can invent tanks (invented 1915), jet skis (invented 1973), and a gi-''gantic'' friggin' ''drill'' (invented [[ExtyYearsFromNow 20XX]])... but the concept of a ''hot air balloon''(invented 1783)... eluuuuudes you. ...I hate this world and everyone in it.

* BadassMustache: In the "Day of Black Stache" special, Haru's mustache [[spoiler: which is so powerful that it can single-handedly defeat Fire Lord Ozai]].

'''Katara:''' An [[ThePollyanna optimist!]]\\
'''Sokka:''' And '''I'm''' a [[AgentScully skeptic!]] Skepticism, skepticism, ''skepticism''...\\

* CompletelyMissingThePoint: ''"Zuzu's Date"''. [[spoiler: At first]].

* AttentionWhore: Aang.

* TrashTalk: Aang loses it when a glider pilot "does the ancient Airbender equivalent of You Got Served."

** The Guy Aang's trashing? Teo. Sokka treats it as a WhatTheHellHero after the reveal.

* {{Yandere}}: One episode character Meng is turned into one. She calls Aang her lover and she follows after him when he leaves her village. [[spoiler:She goes as far as dressing as the Blue Spirit and even Zuko so that she could get Aang all to herself.]]

* EmoTeen: '''Zuko'''.

* WorthIt: Sokka's attitude to sacrificing the air balloon's fuel source to get rid of Music/KennyLoggins music.

* {{Yandere}}: One episode character Meng is turned into one.

* StalkerWithACrush: In fact, she is named Stalker Girl.

** And Jet's obsession with shoelaces alludes to one of [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited the Question's best known lines.]] "The tips of shoelaces are called aglets - their true purpose is sinister."

* CrazySurvivalist: Jet, leading the battle against the Martians... Er, Fire Nation, basically {{Expy}}ing a mix of [[VideoGame/MetalGear Solid Snake]] and The Question from ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited''.
