  • Heartwarming Moments:
    • In Sky Pirate Girlfriends (an edited-down Let's Play/Gag Dub of Skies of Arcadia), Vyce's heart-to-heart with Fina before the final boss is reinterpreted as Vyce (now going by Vyrsa) finally coming out as a trans woman to Aika, who responds by silently kissing her on the cheek. Even if Vyrsa's blatant transness was largely played for laughs throughout the playthrough, seeing Vyrsa finally accept who she is after spending a large part of the story denying it is still very gratifying to see.
      • Throughout the campaign, Vyce/Vyrsa's gender identity, despite being a source of comedy, is consistently treated with respect, and pretty much every main character accepts her like anyone else (even Galcian, who hates women to an almost comical extent, understands that Vyrsa's a woman). Quite a few transgender people have gone in the comments of the video to say that they weren't expecting to feel so represented in something so over-the-top and silly.
  • Never Live It Down: Even over 5 years after its creation, Brendan's "Vote" video (which was intended to be a video telling his American viewers to vote in the the then-upcoming presidential election, but came off to many as him saying that anyone who didn't vote Democrat was a bad person) is often bought up in discussions surrounding him. And if it's not that, it'll probably be his rather infamous remarks about Lovely★Complex, which caused such an uproar that Discotek Media and Sound Cadence (the studios working on the series' translation and English dub, respectively) cut ties with him over his handling of the matter.
