** The most hilarious of all of these is Fukua, who ''actually got new art specifically for this''. What does she do? Why, perform Shadow the Hedgehog's pose from the ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' box art, of course! To add to the hilarity, she's inexplicably holding either a banana or a ''burger'' in her pointing hand.

* An update in early February 2024 re-introduced the Soviet Announcer, now voiced by Gary Schwartz. Yes, as in ''[[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 THAT]]'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJQ_Qq4LptY Gary Schwartz]]. No lines were removed (in fact, a few were added, mainly just to reference Heavy), meaning that we essentially have ''semi-official recordings of Heavy doing [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders DIO's time stop]]'', among other things.

* The entirety of DLC candidate [[AnimeChineseGirl Feng]]'s EpicFail of a backstory. While originally meant as a joke, it's now considered to be canonical:
** Natives of Feng's homeland are practitioners of geomancy, but Feng is incredibly bad at it. So much so, when she tried rearranging the furniture in her apartment, [[MundaneMadeAwesome the resulting feng shui was so bad]] ''[[MundaneMadeAwesome that it opened a portal to the afterlife]],'' which is how she got her [[HeadPet ghost birds]].
* While the first half of Double's ending is pure horror, the other half shows us Aeon's room. Which is a cluttered mess filled with everything from a Samson wig, a Painwheel backpack, the Necronomicon, and a Ms. Fortune body pillow. Especially funny because this means that one of the ''Skullgirls'' equivalents of God is a cringe-inducing fangirl.

* Normally, we really don't put one character here and call it a day, but with ''[[RealityWarper Peacock]]'', that is probably the quickest way to actually get it done for listing Peacock's moments of humor. Case in point, her attacks, all being based around cartoon-ish ideas, ranging from POKING the character, [[EpicFail MISSING a football kick]] [[ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}} Charlie Brown]]-style, [[MusicalAssassin singing a DEADLY note on a rock guitar]], pulling characters into a BigBallOfViolence, using miniature '''CANNONS''', using AbnormalAmmo for her guns like baseballs, ''BOWLING BALLS'', and '''[[Franchise/SuperMarioBros BULLET BILLS]]''', and even having one of her ShadowOfImpendingDoom attacks be Avery on a '''''STEAMROLLER!'''''[[note]]And yes, Avery ''does'' shout "[[MemeticMutation WRYYYYY!]]" when the steamroller hits.[[/note]] She has to be seen in gameplay to be believed.

** Hell, even her DummiedOut alternate ending wasn't pulled because it was a DownerEnding (like most of the scrapped endings for other characters), [[GainaxEnding but solely based off of how off-the-wall it was]]: First, [[SweetTooth Peacock wishes for all of the world's oxygen to be turned into chocolate]]. The [[ArtifactOfDoom Skull Heart]] ''[[EveryoneHasStandards REFUSES]]'' to grant [[WhoWouldBeStupidEnough this clearly idiotic wish]]. Then, Peacock wished for [[PreciousPuppy everybody to be turned into puppies]]. The Skull Heart refused to grant ''that'' wish as well. [[HilarityEnsues Cue the]] AxCrazy HeroicComedicSociopath and the OmnicidalManiac EldritchAbomination [[MoodWhiplash bickering with each other, calling the other]] [[WorstWhateverEver "The Worst Wisher/Wish Granter Ever"]].

** At the beginning of Annie's story mode, she fights Robo-Fortune. It's not an attack, her show's production team found Robo-Fortune outside, fixed her up, and offered her a role as MonsterOfTheWeek. Aftwards, Robo-Fortune does her piano-cat impression for Aileen.

* Filia and Squigly meet in the latter's story mode. Filia tells Squigly and Leviathan that she's lost her memory and Samson is helping her find the Skull Heart so she can use it to get better. Leviathan accuses Samson of taking advantage of Filia's amnesia, manipulating her into going after the Skull Heart because he wants her to be turned into a Skullgirl. Samson responds by being a {{jerkass}}, insulting Squigly's appearance and then telling Filia that she can't trust this undead chick, who ''has'' to be working for the Skullgirl. At this point both [[NotSoAboveItAll Squigly and Leviathan]] [[KickTheSonOfABitch want to beat the crap out of Samson]].
