History YMMV / ThatDudeInTheSuede

* FunnyAneurysmMoment:

* GrowingTheBeard: Suede's profile and popularity ''exploded'' after he began his Pokemon episode reviews.

* MST3KMantra: Applied to the three subjects Suede will never address in ''Pokemon Journey'': The MetaNarrative of 10-year olds being allowed to WanderTheEarth and fight dangerous wild creatures, Ash's unaging nature, and the show's battles not following the rules of the games.

** In his review of "Enter The Dragonite", after he has a blackout upon remembering that Ash won the Orange Island League, he makes a joke saying he sees why Ash [[TemptingFate will never win a league]]. Shortly after that, [[Recap/PokemonS22E47EnterTheChampion a certain major event happens]]. Suede then admits that his viewers will not let him live that comment down.

* DanBrowned: In his "Pikachu and Pichu" review, Suede insists real-world animals have been retconned out of the ''Pokemon'' franchise, claiming that they haven't appeared since the St. Anne episodes. Not only have there been several post-St. Anne [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Animals_in_the_Pokemon_world appearances by real world animals]], the "Pikachu and Pichu" episode itself had a statue of a real-world horse.

* HilariousInHindsight: In his [[Anime/PokemonMewtwoReturns Mewtwo Returns]] review, he complained about Mewtwo's claim that he and his clones can never live among normal Pokemon despite there being absolutely no evidence supporting this fact. Later, we find out that [[Anime/PokemonGenesectAndTheLegendAwakened Mewtwo CAN live among normal Pokemon]]!

** Hell, Suede himself. The guy was on the site for a couple of months before disappearing for over two years, and yet look at the size of his Wiki/TVTropes page relative to any of the other Channel Awesome contributors' (Save for Doug, Linkara or Spoony).

* AnticlimaxBoss: In ''WebVideo/SuburbanKnights'' Part 5.
* [[AwesomeMusic/NewMedia Awesome Music]]: His theme songs, especially ''Animenia'''s ("How Do You Have Your Tea?" by Urbantramper).

* DanBrowned: In his "Pikachu and Pichu" review, Suede insists real-world animals have been retconned out of the ''Pokemon'' franchise, claiming that they haven't appeared since the St. Anne episodes. Not only have there been several post-St. Anne [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Animals_in_the_Pok%C3%A9mon_world appearances by real world animals]], the "Pikachu and Pichu" episode itself had a statue of a real-world horse.

** In his ''Suede's Pokemon Journey'' video series, Suede gave an F grade to "Ditto's Mysterious Mansion", one of the most well-liked and well remembered of the original Kanto episodes, on the grounds of it sending a harmful message that someone who's different from the norm ought to be shunned and abused, and that abusive tactics can be "for your own good" and should be lauded when it gets results that are to the benefit of the abuse victim. The majority of commentators on the video expressed outrage and disagreement, many of them expressing that such a message did not and would not occur to viewers of the episode at all, so Suede had to be really reaching with his interpretation of what the episode's supposed "moral" was in order to justify giving the episode an undeservedly low grade.
** Again in that same series, many were put off by his review of "Holy Matrimony!" getting stretched out longer than the usual videos due to him dedicating a large part of it's time talking about LGBTQ issues and how the character of James might have a positive effect on gay or trans viewers of the show, even showing commentary on the matter from [[WebVideo/JesuOtaku Jacob Chapman]]. Commentators accused Suede of getting on a political soapbox and talking about issues that had no place being talked about in a video about a children's anime whose creators likely didn't give the issues any thought. A few of them did think the topic was worth covering, but that it should have been saved for the later episode "Go West, Young Meowth" since that episode actually inspired Meowth's voice actor, the late Maddie Blaustein, to come out as trans and transition.

** The questionable comments about Jew Wario using a female avatar in the first Pokemon movie review is harder to sit through after [[WebVIdeo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara's]] ex-girlfriend Iron Liz, as well as later host WebVideo/JesuOtaku, came out as trans.[[note]]Though, at least in note of this, Suede and Linkara switch their tone in the second episode to be in support of JW's genderswap.[[/note]]

** The ''Anime/Pokemon4Ever'' review was inevitable for this concerning Creator/JewWario's death. ''Especially'' with him [[PutOnABus leaving the]] [[TheCharacterDiedWithHim review]]. Suede notes this and advised those who don't want to feel like it's TooSoon or too harsh for them to skip to a point where the review begins proper.
*** In the Pokémon 2000 review, [=JewWario=] gets the line, "Not everything is a cry for help!"

* UnexpectedCharacter: In direct contrast to the below mentioned example, ''no one'' was expecting JO's guest (audio-only) appearance in episode 47 of "Suede's Pokemon Journey". Even less expected since he wasn't named at first and his voice had changed significantly due to the progress he's been making in his transition.

* PanderingToTheBase: The good angel in his ''TriGun'' review convinces him to listen to his fans by saying that it will make him more money.

* BileFascination: The man seems to have none, since most of the terrible american anime he references in his "Top 11 American Anime" video, while initially recieving negative reception, got more positive ones by the end of their runs.
* BrokenBase: According to his ''{{Trigun}}'' review, half his viewer base hates him for not being more like WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic and the other half hates him for being too much like WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic.
