YMMV / Vete A La Versh

Go To

  • Arc Fatigue: Beyond the Broken Base around the more story-driven Christmas Special, the fact that they are released once a year can make the half of the fanbase interesed on seeing them get annoyed for the wait.
  • Base-Breaking Character: Cati the ladybug. Most of the comments of the episodes she stars in seem divided between those who think is an hilarious character and not any worse that all the others types of Black Comedy the series uses or those who see it as an offensive gay stereotype that has nothing but one joke. The character was quietly dropped after Season 3 however.
  • Broken Base: The Christmas Specials from Season 3 onwards started developing a much more serious and continuity-based storyline that the rest of the series. Fans seems divided between those who enjoy the ocasional change of the setting and those who think the series is way too ridiculous for the creator's attempts to make more serious episodes to work and think they all fall into Narm, other fans also disliked because they feel it killed the original joke and don't see the point on watching them.
  • Catharsis Factor: Most of the top comments on the Musical video "Entiendes" are about fans glad of seeing Mecoboy and the other members of the band finally getting sick of Darkar's bullshit and beating the shit out of him after 5 seasons and 14 years of constantly terrorizing the people around him specially Mecoboy is hard to deny he earn it this one. Special mention goes to the brief moment where he falls on his knees crying and starts begging for mercy.
  • Creator's Pet: Darkar. He appears in all the works of the author, to the point that many wish they stop using him for at least a couple of episodes. He's also both a Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist and a Karma Houdini in most of his appearences making some fans sick of him always getting on top of the situation.
  • Ensemble Dark Horse: For a minor one-off posthumous character, Darkar's mom is extremely beloved by the fanbase, arguably for being one of the few unambiguosly nice characters in the series. Making her death all the more sad.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: A running gag is that Darkar never owns up to anything that's clearly his fault. As Mecoboy tells him, he's become so skilled at explaining away his guilt that he's managed to convince himself as well. It's all Played for Laughs, until Season 5 reveals Darkar indirectly killed his adoptive mother after she got poisoned for trying to save him from a poisonous flower. It's quite likely that accepting responsibility for what he's done would break him.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: In 2012, a Peruvian artist named ximsol182 made a fanart featuring genderswapped versions of Darkar and Mecoboy. Years later, an Affectionate Parody of Vete a la Versh named Besame la Panosh aired on Youtube, featuring a similar concept. What's more, the creator was Peruvian as well.
  • Just Here for Godzilla: Some The Legend of Zelda fans had admitted to not care about the remaining episodes but finding the parodies of their games to be quite spot on and just bother in checking those.
  • Memetic Molester: Miguel Joaquin, an obvious Shout-Out to Michael Jackson. He even has a movie called "When Pedophiles Attack". Also Jorge the penguin and Darkar's Gramps.
  • Redundant Parody: "Puchamon 2" is mostly an Overly Long Gag around how useless Metapod is with the trainers being unable to do much that tell him to harden, in Pokémon: The Original Series this is exactly what happened in Metapod's first appearence.
  • Tear Jerker: Season 5, Episode 11. FULL STOP.
  • What Do You Mean, It's Not for Kids?: Despite its cartoony art style, the series relies on Vulgar Humor and has constant swearing. It still spawned a notorious Periphery Demographic of children, however
