Has nothing to do with familiarity with in-universe fiction.


* GenreSavvy: Bipi, if you can call it that.

Added DiffLines:

* I Never Told You My Name: Subverted twice in Episode 5. The Mario roleplayer knows the name of the Bob-omb roleplayer (Boomer) by reading the nametag. Then another situation comes up with Goombella simply knowing Mario's name.


Added DiffLines:

* OneSteveLimit: Completely averted. The confusion is often a source of jokes.

!!Tales Retold contains examples of:
* AdaptationDistillation: A part of all the episodes, but most in Episode 5, as a direct parody of a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LN-c2XbXIGY Roblox project that uses footage from the game]].
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny:
* AuthorAvatar: Not so subtly with the W+L emblem Mario. {{Word Of God}} says it more represents a skilled [[PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor TTYD]] player.
* BadBadActing: It's a parody of a Roblox roleplay. What did you expect?
* CharacterExaggeration: Pretty much every character in Episode 5.
* ChirpingCrickets
** Characters don't even travel to "Crippling depression".
** When the 'battle' is over in Episode 5, but everyone's still in the room.
* DeadpanSnarker: Mostly the W+L Emblem Mario. Eventually needs a P-Up D-Down badge to distinguish himself from another character with the general same sprite.
* FacePalm: "Rougeport".
* FourthWallObserver: W+L Emblem Mario, naturally.
** To some extent also applies to other text on the screen.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: Episode 5 contains a scene that's interrupted by an in-universe advertisement, but you can still interpret what happens.
** In the same episode, Erth falls into a hole he just a few seconds ago warned the group to avoid.
* GenreSavvy: Bipi, if you can call it that.
* HypocriticalHumor: Erth warns the group to not fall into an invisible hole. Guess what happens.
* LongTitle: The original "Tales from Paper Mario RP" is not easily shortened.
* MediumAwareness: In the sense that each character's playing a game - namely, the Paper Mario Roleplay game.
** Mario in Episode 5 uses the information from a character's nametag to call him by name before he even said it. The character tries to rescue it by asking how he knows, only [[NotHelpingYourCase to point out the nametag anyway]].
* NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer: Since the parody already has so many characters making spelling and grammar mistakes, actual game screenshots of the source material making typos had to be added.
** To the static in the last part of Episode 4. In fact, all of the static was from another YouTube video.
* OhCrap: Happens to Color Splash Mario in Episode 3.
* PleaseSubscribeToOurChannel: Two of them in Episode 1.
* PlotHole: Bound to happen with so many roleplay plots making no sense.
** In the original Tales from Paper Mario RP, all the toads are gods of some kind.
** In Episode 5, characters compliment Koops for doing great in a battle. Bipi later points out he was never in the battle at all.
** 2 hoktils
* RunningGag: Literally.
** People losing 5 HP for no reason.
** The shotgun.
** Toads being gods.

* ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem: "FemaleGamer17xx" in Episode 3.
* ShoutOut: To [[PaperMarioCountdownToChaos The Rewind Chronicles]] music.
* SpannerInTheWorks: WL Mario by far, but the blue Shy Guy and Bowser in Episode 3 also take a piece of the pie.
* StylisticSuck: Among other things, the most obvious is the Microsoft Sam voice is used for every character (with different pitches), as well as every character except a select few constantly making spellinge rrors.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: A minor one. In Episode 5, when the blue Shy Guy keeps getting cut out of the camera he eventually rants with text that covers the whole screen. {{Interface Spoiler}} by the font and pitch, though.
