YMMV / HTF - YouTube Copyright Lawsuit School

Go To

  • Anvilicious: As the short insists: Follow the copyright law and make original content if the user wants to keep their YouTube channel alive.
  • Bile Fascination: Many people have watched the short despite not getting a copyright strike just to know if it is as bad as people say it is.
  • Bizarro Episode: Even more so than the "101" collab short. Unlike it, there are no other Web Original representatives that work together on this short, so seeing this published as a YouTube standalone is considered unusual to the viewers. In the context of the show represented in this short, the use of text is more prominent even outside the YouTube interface when the show itself tends to avoid written text in episodes outside of Freeze-Frame Bonus and, being an educational short, the total lack of blood and gore stands out even more than "Subscriptions" despite the latter having no cartoon violence at all (the latter at least has bits of blood as Freeze-Frame Bonus).
  • Fanon Discontinuity: Despite Happy Tree Friends being known for having Negative Continuity, fans refuse to acknowledge this short's existence, not helped by it being published during one of the show's hiatuses.
  • Fridge Brilliance: Of course Russell the pirate is chosen to represent the user who violates copyright.
  • Misaimed Marketing: YouTube using a Web Animation known for being a gory Sadist Show set in a Sugar Bowl and cleansing it to educate viewers definitely baffled the show's fans and non-fans alike.
