* Unlike [[TheLoad his brother]], Picky at least ''tries'' to help in the fight against Starman Junior, even if he's only doing 1 HP worth of damage. There is, however, a [[https://twitter.com/DannyPageoLight/status/1594911437654491139?s=20&t=zH9J5d4CfvSJ782TcaEqhA chance]] of Picky getting a [[CriticalHit Smash attack]] in on the enemy...[[AntiClimax for still 1 HP worth of damage]].

* In Threed, after obtaining the Jar of Fly Honey, Apple Kid will call you that he had a pizza delivery man deliver "Zombie Paper" to you. Believing Apple Kid to be a weirdo, the pizza delivery man not only decides to give the Zombie Paper to some random kid and pretend they're Ness (who is actually there for the delivery) but he ends up giving it to ''Paula''. Well, Ness ''does'' still get it in the end so it works.

* The Magypies, a group of six Magypsies. When you first hear about them, you learn that they are mystical beings who are "neither man nor woman".

The music for their "palace" is a saucy saxophone riff.

** One particular toilet houses some treasure... [[spoiler:And the Ultimate Chimera]]. It's as startling as it is hilarious.

** After a Pigmask destroy the tunnel from the Chimera Lab to Saturn Valley, the Mr. Saturn decides to make a flying birdcage as a mode of transportation for our heroes but needs one more bird. Afterward, several Mr. Saturns are seen holding hook-attached-balloons which they use for, as they put it, "fishing for birdies".

* Giygas. To some, [[NightmareFuel he's horrifying]]. To others, he's so over-the-top and cliche (or just plain strange to the point of SurrealHumor) that [[NightmareRetardant he loses all scariness factor]] and [[NarmCharm becomes one of, if not the funniest part of the game.]]
** Especially prevalent is the infamous [[SayMyName "NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS"]] line; [[HelloInsertNameHere abusing the name feature for Ness]] can turn the line into a [[InherentlyFunnyWords laugh]] [[ClusterFBomb riot.]]
