[[folder: Gameplay]]
* The standard GameOver message is "Hey! Why don't you just get up and dance, man?!" Apparently, trying to dance and failing is the same thing as sitting on your butt and not dancing!
* The course "Wanna's Train", in which you play [[Music/{{KARA}} "Wanna"]] [[OverlyLongGag five times]] in a row.
* "Bee" Another Nightmare (Double ??), a hilariously [[UnwinnableJokeGame impossible]] chart.
* Speaking of hilariously impossible charts, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmHMyWDTkxk VV D27]] from ''Infinity'' has so many gimmicks crammed into one chart that figuring out the steps themselves is only half the battle. Good luck trying to clear ''that'' with an A.
* "Pumptris Quattro"'s Single 17 chart, which is composed entirely of hold steps. The game will give out all Perfects for a hold note so long as you keep it held down the entire time, [[GoodBadBugs even if you "buffer" the note by holding it in advance]]. Some players' solutions to getting all Perfects on the chart? [[EasyLevelTrick Sit down on the panels for the entire duration of the song]].
** Unfortunately averted in ''XX'' as it is now required to tap on the holds. The official [=YouTube=] channel posted a video of the chart, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQMIZhG0sqA demonstrating what happens if you attempt the same trick now]].
** Although it is easy enough to pass by stepping on the arrows, Ugly Dee's Single 3 chart can also be cleared using the same trick.
* "Dawgs In Da House"'s Routine/Co-op chart. Yes, you and your partner are supposed to go "doggy style" for some parts of the chart. Have fun getting kicked out of the arcade!
* ''Infinity'' has the song "Girlz Buttz", a song that is about, well, "lookin' at [[XtremeKoolLetterz girlz]] [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin buttz]]". The video consists of various ''Pump'' players fooling around, while the Routine chart occasionally has either player holding down one set of panels while using their hands to hit the other panels, sticking their ''butt'' out in the process.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xfi_4IXq8q8 Mawaru Infinity]] from ''Infinity'' is a Crowning ''Mission'' of Funny. Highlights include:
** The player can obtain a bonus for "Summoning Roberto" if they get all Perfects minus one. This references an in-joke concerning Mexican player Roberto - an otherwise skilled player who became known for attempting full Perfect combos and failing because of one Great or Miss.
** When the player is asked to spin along to the arrows in the "Beethoven Virus" segment, ''[[InterfaceScrew the arrows themselves spin too]]''.
** The second Brain Shower segment is hosted by the Hwangdong Hunters, the protagonists of "DJ Otada". If the player using the left side of the pad gives out a wrong answer, Hwang (the ninja) will slash the player character's pants [[ComedicUnderwearExposure leaving their underwear exposed]].
*** On the other hand, if all players present give out the right answer (as seen in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZRSkfUtl7g this run]]), Hwang will [[WhenSheSmiles "smile"]] and give them a thumbs-up. [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments Awwww!]]
** The Defend! segment features the protagonist of "Beat of the War 2" fighting the evil spherical robots from "Canon-D". The player can hold the center panel and give her a chance to fight... [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential or miss the center note completely]] [[BlackComedy and watch as she loses balance and falls]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4OS5BLAP2U What if Tribe Attacker Co-Op X4 was done by only two people?]]
** Even better: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9QeA4KLk_g What if Bad Apple Full Co-Op X4 was done by only ONE person?]]
* Mope Mope is considered to contains the biggest troll charts in the game as intended. On the happy parts, it is very lighthearted and "simple." Once the song gets to the more glitchy and dark side, the DifficultySpike was taken in spades. Seeing people play this chart the first time cause the audience to laugh due to the trolling nature of the song.
** This was later on patched. The flashes in higher difficulties were meant to be a distraction challenge. However, they were caused due to inducing seizures in players.

[[folder: Background Animations]]
* Unintentional example: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_sbk549sMY "Baroque Virus"]] from ''Infinity'' (later crossed over to ''Fiesta 2'') would be a completely serious BGA... if it were not for two words: [[TranslationTrainwreck Iternal]] [[GratuitousEnglish Fight]].
** Amusingly, the BGA for the original version of the song featured as an unlock in ''Infinity'' features no such text. However, the BGA for that version contains the text [[MisattributedSong "Song by Engine"]] and "BPM 128", which is funny because both of those information are wrong - the composer is Zircon and the BPM is 135. It's most likely unintentional for the former because Engine is the name of the BGA's visualizer.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOCroiJB4Lo "Come Back To Me"]] from ''Perfect Collection''. The gun-toting protagonist of this BGA happens across an obstacle in his way - a blocked rail crossing. How does he deal with it? Why, [[TooDumbToLive by shooting at the barrier to lift it!]] Naturally, he's run over for all his trouble. Worry not, though; the immediate next shot [[RoboticReveal reveals that he is a robot or cyborg of some sort]], so he lives to fight another day.
* ''Pro'' featured [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDRF9fOueac a censored version]] of the [[{{Fanservice}} infamous]] BGA for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4rpLZfxciE "Ba Be Loo Be Ra"]] from ''Exceed''. This is, in fact, ''not'' the first time the video is [[{{Bowdlerization}} toned down]]. The animation was recycled from "It's My Party", a cancelled song in ''Prex 3''; among other changes, the woman's bikini was edited and covered with a miniskirt. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0M5eguEHwgc Just see for yourself.]]
* In the otherwise heartwarming [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcbQUh5fz04 "I'll Give You All My Love"]] from ''Exceed 2'', the protagonist, determined to make her potted plant bloom into a flower, ''overtakes a car on foot'' to get to the highest building in her hometown. The driver is left with an epic OhCrap expression.
** Immediately after, she is chased by two police officers. Her response? Why, use their police car as a trampoline and go on her merry way!
** [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation Depending on how you interpret the ending,]] the protagonist's flower may have left ''everyone in the universe'' in a hyper state - including the two aforementioned policemen!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=makUMTuPRlc "I Love You Baby"]] from ''Exceed SE'', later crossed over to ''Zero'', has two lifeguards try to impress a pair of beachgoers by posing dramatically. The video ends with the two punching each other ''for no apparent reason at all''. They weren't even fighting over the same girl!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiCJPXyb1z4 "My Brother is Street Singer"]] from ''NX''. Just as in the song, the protagonist of this video is a teenage girl with a lazy, mooching BigBrotherBully. Except, in the video, ''she actually gets to MegatonPunch him '''twice''' for his trouble.'' Doubles as an awesome moment for the girl for standing her ground.
* [[Music/SuperJunior Super Junior's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJt5JyxrtmE "U"]] from ''NX Absolute''. Two words: [[MoonwalkDance Moonwalking]] {{Dracula}}.
* [[Music/BigBang BigBang's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Dg8qy4lKeg "La La La"]] from ''NX Absolute'' has three boys engaged in what seems to be a paintball match with toy guns (and spray paint cans, in the case of the boy with a surgical mask). By the end, their game has angered an old woman enough to [[WhenEldersAttack drive them off her turf with a bat]]. If the question marks over their heads in the last shot are anything to go by, the boys didn't even get a clue!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV3RWZdgAGw "DJ Otada"]] from ''NX Absolute'' features an extremely bizarre take on an adventure RPG with a trio of [[BountyHunter bounty hunters]] as the protagonists. While the whole video is hilarious, what takes the cake is [[GratuitousNinja Hwang]], the trio's leader, accidentally striking [[BearyFriendly Teddy]] with one of his shuriken during the TrainingMontage sequence, as well as Hwang's exaggerated "OH NO!" reaction afterwards.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN9crovdwRk "X-Tree"]] from ''Fiesta'' ends with the heartbroken protagonist [[TransformationSequence transforming]] into a bigger version of himself in a Godzilla costume with a broken heart in the middle, just as if he were a MagicalGirl.
** This may be a reference to the equally comical [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcyGHW08-AM "Mr. Firefighter"]] from ''Zero'', which predates "X-Tree" by a few years and also has a rejected StalkerWithACrush transform into a cartoony Godzilla-like monster.
* Arcana Force from ''Prime 2''. A white rabbit, under attack by pig aliens, transforms into a MagicalGirl. She then defeats the pig aliens... [[KarmicTransformation by turning them into white rabbits identical to her previous form.]] At the end of the video, she can be seen holding one of the rabbits in her arms with a devious smile in her face.
%% * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NytLxwQ49h4 "1949"]] from ''XX'' tells the player to [[OhCrap DIE]] and references the [[NonStandardGameOver game over 'Why Don't You Just Get Up And Dance Man']] quote. Made worse that there is a D28 chart, making this [[ThatOneBoss the hardest non-long song chart in the game]]. No, literally HaveANiceDeath...
%% ** ... and then Immediately averted with the update 1.02.2 where it [[NeverSayDie removes the visible word DIE]]. It still doesn't [[EarnYourFun make the song any easier]] or less [[{{Pun}} deadly]].
* Brain Power's background is a modernized version of the original music video. If you thought [[MemeticMutation the song's chorus was hilarious]], there are two ways that make its ''Pump'' incarnation even funnier. First, despite the song saying the word "cocaine", the word was censored as [[{{Bowdlerise}} "COXXXXXXX"]] in the BGA alongside a censored stamp. To add humor, when the singer says "Killer Machine", [[SelfDeprecation it displays the Pump It Up XX machine itself]].
