10[=SilvaGunner=][[note]]the third letter is a lowercase "L"[[/note]] was a Platform/YouTube channel started in 2008 that uploaded [[GameMusic video game music]]... until it was removed for copyright violations in October 2010. Shortly after, fellow music uploader [=TimmyTurnersDad=] created [=GilvaSunner=][[note]]again with a lowercase "L"[[/note]] as a tribute, though after a storied career, it was sadly taken down in 2022. [[WellThisIsNotThatTrope This page isn't about either channel]] ([[ParodyDisplacement but you probably knew that]]).
11
12Si'''I'''vaGunner[[note]]the third letter is now an uppercase "i" instead of a lowercase "L"[[/note]] is a collaborative project that publishes remixes of game soundtracks, but mimics the video metadata from the aforementioned [=GilvaSunner=], thus [[BaitAndSwitch making the videos look like unedited music from various games]] when they are typically either something arranged InTheStyleOf the game's music or something remixed overtop of the music. All with a healthy dosage of RunningGags, many of them being {{meme}}s (for example ''VideoGame/SevenGrandDad'').
13
14[=SiIvaGunner=] was started in January 2016 by Chaze the Chat, who was inspired channels that posed as Creator/LittleKuriboh during the height of ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries''[='s=] popularity. It was originally known as [=GiIvaSunner=][[note]]with an uppercase "i"[[/note]] to better impersonate [=GilvaSunner=], but four months into its run history repeated itself and the entire channel was wiped from [=YouTube=], so when moving to the current channel it was [[MythologyGag rebranded to SiIvaGunner]]. The new channel also saw a shift to [[GrowingTheBeard having good remixes instead of simple memes]], and along with that the {{Kayfabe}} of posing as [=GilvaSunner=] morphed into an actual narrative.
15
16The [=SiIvaGunner=] channel continued uploading videos regularly until September 2016 when it was announced that the channel would be ending. However, it would see a special return for Halloween and Christmas that year. The Christmas special in particular featured an episodic series, but the seventh episode fell into DevelopmentHell for months, which led to the channel being UnCanceled. [=SiIvaGunner=] has continued uploading regularly ever since.
17
18In accordance with the above, the team has decided to sort the channel into seasons:
19* Season 1 covers 2016 up until the Halloween special return.
20* Season 2 began in December 2016 and extends to all of 2017.
21* Season 3 covers 2018 and a bit of 2019.
22* Season 4 covers the remainder of 2019 and all of 2020.
23* Season 5 covers 2021 and a bit of 2022.
24* Season 6 covers the remainder of 2022.
25* Season 7 began in February 2023 and ended in January 2024.
26* Season 8, the current season, began in February 2024.
27
28[[Administrivia/ExamplesAreNotRecent Please note that many examples on this page and in the sub-pages haven't been updated and still refer to the end of Season 1 as the end of the channel.]]
29
30A dedicated art collective called the SG Art Team handles the art for big events like the ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'', ''King for a Day'', and other smaller projects like fusion collabs. Despite this, they're not officially in direct affiliation to the channel: they've helped with non-[=SiIvaGunner=] collaborations, and they claim [[BlatantLies the "SG" in their name stands for "Sexy Grandpa"]] (despite their logo being a stylized Wood Man, a character also associated with the channel).
31
32The channel also has a spinoff music label, [=SiIvaGunner=] Fusion Records (shortened to SGFR as a parody of SBFR/salvation by faith Records). This label is dedicated to remixes and arrangements, and often releases their albums alongside a channel event to promote them.
33
34The channel can be viewed [[https://youtube.com/SiIvaGunner here]], its Website/{{Twitter}} can be found [[https://twitter.com/GiIvaSunner here]], and its Bandcamp [[https://gilvasunner.bandcamp.com/ here]]. It also has an [[https://highquality.rip official site]] that is used to host links to mods and albums, as well as the ''King for Another Day MOJO!!''.

174
175!!I only add high quality trope examples:
176[[folder:#-G]]
177* TenMinuteRetirement: The most egregious SeriesFauxnale. The channel uploaded what seemed to be a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4SlU7XQikU genuine goodbye message]], stating that the channel was fun while it lasted but that it's time to move on. In addition, all characters were removed from the channel banner, and the channel description was replaced with a single sentence that said "So long, grand cowboy." ...But one hour later, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrdKrtHkggE a new rip was uploaded]] and all the changes to the channel had been reverted. Rips continued like normal afterwards and the goodbye video was never mentioned again.
178* AbandonedCatchphrase: [=SiIvaGunner=]'s catch phrase is "I only upload high quality video game rips.", but this is almost never referenced on the channel after Season 1. {{Justified|Trope}} as the InUniverse [=SiIvaGunner=] character has been PutOnABus since Season 1. The phrase is still referenced on the highquality.rip website.
179* AbortedArc:
180** The storyline about Mr. Rental's crusade against mashups began with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sI3xt7QbSSI Options]] rip, and escalated from there, until rips on the topic abruptly stopped. This is because the creator of the arc stopped feeling like continuing, [[NoEnding and just left it unfinished]].
181** During the second reboot ARG, The Voice Inside Your Head revealed in a ''Pokémon'' ROM Hack that he engineered the reboot to protect the channel from a greater evil. This plot point was never built upon, as when The Voice eventually returned, his motive of protecting the channel seemingly disappeared in favor of him being anti-Snow Halation and other "weeb shit" just like much of the fandom was.
182** {{Subverted}} with the ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'' arc. It was seemingly aborted for Season 3 with [=SiIvaGunner=] returning as the host of the channel, but a lot of things hinted he was NotQuiteBackToNormal. The Season 3 finale made it clear - the ''CCC'' is still going strong, just [[StatusQuoIsGod in a way that makes it look like it isn't]] (the real [=SiIvaGunner=] character is still asleep, but Haltmann created an A.I. that acts just like him which now runs the channel). PlayedWith as well, since the two ''King for a Day'' {{Tournament Arc}}s actually do abort the ''CCC''; they take place in an AlternateUniverse that [[DimensionalTraveler Wood Man]] visited [[RuleOfFun for fun]].
183* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Two in the "Shop Fusion Collab":
184** The Trader is (presumably) human: ''Hollow Knight'' is entirely focused on bug-like creatures, so the ''VideoGame/HollowKnight''[=/=]''VideoGame/{{Darkwood}}'' segment has the Trader as a bug with sap leaking out of him.
185** As humans are long dead in the setting of ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}'', Cordelia is instead a sea urchin in the ''VideoGame/Splatoon3''[=/=]''VideoGame/DeadEstate'' segment.
186* AlternateRealityGame: [[https://www.reddit.com/r/GiIvaSunner/comments/4oxylf/recap_of_the_arg/ An ARG]] began on [[MeaningfulReleaseDate Father's Day]], which was shortly after the reboot. It led to [[spoiler:an audio file that revealed that more about the reboot. An extended version of the audio file]] was later [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN7ptE55rV4 uploaded on YouTube]]. [[invoked]]
187* AlternateUniverse: The High Quality Reboot is a CosmicRetcon by The Voice Inside Your Head to exchange the original [=SiivaGunner=] RunningGags for others, thus creating an alternate universe. [[spoiler:As The Voice Inside Your Head is effectively a god, he can create more alternate universes as he wishes. He tells Chad Warden about several other possible alternate universes, each containing their own set of RunningGags.]]
188** On June 17th 2017, a video is uploaded with an alternate version of the reboot's true ending called [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} Genocide ending]]. In it, [[spoiler: Chad kills Snow Halation, the Voice and later ''[[HeroKiller SiIva himself]]'', revealing this was his plan all along and taking over the channel]]. The following day is flooded with rips that mostly include Lego Pornstar's ''Abe's Dead'' (a.k.a. the 'Chicken and Chips' song), suggested to be [[spoiler: the work of this universe's Chad]]. A day later, a video called '...' is posted, where [[spoiler: Wood Man appears and reveals this is just an example of a timeline where Chad is more like his real life self than the idealized version from the reboot. Wood Man then admits he just did this for fun before bringing the viewers back to the main timeline]].
189* AnonymousBand: This is done to maintain Kayfabe. However, it's {{Averted}} in some places:
190** The featured channels list contains several contributors' channels.
191** All of the albums credit the creators appropriately, except in a few cases where placeholders such as "Barney Rubble" or other joke names are used. The albums also reveal the proper "names" for each rip.
192** Many contributors have playlists collecting all of their rips, which is in turn used by the [=SiIvaGunner=] Wiki to place the proper credit on most rips.
193* AntiFrustrationFeatures: The (unofficial) [=SiIvaGunner=] Wiki analyses the contents of each listed rip in great detail, including barely noticeable additions or possible references which is especially helpful for rips with more esoteric {{punchline}}s.
194* AntiHumor: Rips with large portions of the song left intact fit this trope, most notably [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnU1-kY2G9E "Dancing Mad (Beta Mix) - Final Fantasy VI"]], which goes for well over 11 minutes before [[spoiler:The Flintstones' theme is heard]].
195* AprilFoolsDay:
196** The second volume of his highest quality rips... which contained 245 copies of [[VideoGame/SonicHeroes Grand Metropolis]] in .flac[[note]]later reuploaded in .mp3 on [=SiivaGunner=]'s channel[[/note]], with 245 copies of the same image of Creator/KevinSpacey, and a few other images (including an entire folder of [[WebVideo/TheAngryJoeShow Angry Joe]] pictures) thrown in for good measure.
197** [=SiIva=] also uploaded the entire soundtrack of ''VideoGame/TheFlintstonesTheRescueOfDinoAndHoppy'' unedited, followed by three unedited songs that resembled The Flintstones' theme. Then he uploaded Grand Metropolis again.
198** The ''real'' [=GilvaSunner=] uploaded [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KH0vLOpxis Final Destination]].
199** In 2017, the channel and the real [=GilvaSunner=] swapped upload schedules (though their content still remained the same).
200** In 2018, the channel started a second Inspector Gadget takeover, now with WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic.
201** In 2020, the channel ripped songs from other April Fools joke games in lieu of their own gag.
202** In 2021, the channel began a mini-narrative about Mario becoming RetGone [[TakeThat as an extended jab]] to Nintendo's decision to remove the ''Super Mario 3D All-Stars'' collection on the same day. This is notable for being the only April Fools gag on the channel to be played for drama instead of comedy, as the rips uploaded used songs and covers implying loss or isolation as their "jokes."
203** In 2022, the channel instead released rips referencing Creator/LoganPaul, as it was his birthday.
204** In 2023, the channel released a series of Beta Mixes of existing rips, wherein the jokes of existing rips were slightly (or sometimes dramatically) altered, usually to reference the original rip or sometimes ''other'' related rips. This at first extended to rips that already had a Mix in the game (leading to things like "(Alpha Mix) (Beta Mix)"), [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment then to rips that already had "(Beta Mix)" in the name]], including rips that were ''already'' ripped earlier that day. Some rips even recieved [[OverlyLongGag multiple revisions]] with chains of "(Beta Mix)" that broke the video title character limit. This even extended to Beta Mixes of videos that ''[[SerialEscalation weren't even proper rips to begin with]]'', including album announcement videos, lore videos (including one Haltmann's Archives file that gave some lore on the event itself), and two Christmas Comeback Crisis episodes.
205** In 2024, the channel spent the day parodying music edit trends throughout the history of Website/YouTube, while also making faux appeals to the site's algorithm to spoof channels that do the same for real.
206* ArcNumber: 7, referencing the bootleg Mario/Flintstones game "7 GRAND DAD".
207** On most of Siiva's albums, the number of songs is a multiple of 7. Depending on the album, this count either includes or excludes songs that are only available through downloading the album.
208** The seventh rip of "Grand Metropolis" was the only one edited.
209** To celebrate reaching 7,000 subscribers, Siiva uploaded [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEV-uL8NDac an edited version]] of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86Q-psc5T4I a video]] that the real [=GilvaSunner=] had uploaded to celebrate reaching 150,000 subscribers.
210** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zvhi_z35-l4 Level 1 (Desert Bus)]]'' and ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2qsBTGwu9M Beloved Tomboyish Girl (Extended Mix)]]'' are both several hours long, and they both feature the WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones theme song at the seven hour mark. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w68Z4V_sA3g Overworld]] from VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaLinksAwakening only runs for nearly eleven minutes, but it features the Flintstones theme song at the seven minute mark.
211*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhEAazYMdwM The rip of "Pause Screen"]] from VideoGame/WarioWorld (Which was uploaded during the reboot) features the Flintstones theme song at the 7 minute mark, but it quickly begins switching between the theme songs for The Flintstones, The Simpsons, and Family Guy, before moving on to other songs.
212*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rwZxFQunfo The rip]] of "Kakariko Village (Night)" instead features "I Play Pokémon Go Every Day" at the 7 hour mark.
213** After releasing his third album, [=SiIva=] took a seven day break and returned on June 7th.
214** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_3919660105&feature=iv&src_vid=fN7ptE55rV4&v=OtyN2ZPbARs this video]], Siiva goes to buy new ripping software after the program that he had been using up until that point stops working. What was the name of the old ripping software? "[=HQripper=] 7.0"
215** The number seven played a large role in the [[https://www.reddit.com/r/GiIvaSunner/comments/4oxylf/recap_of_the_arg/ Fathers Day ARG.]]
216** The reboot was supposed to end on July 7th (7/7), but the video ending the reboot was immediately taken down, presumably due to issues regarding the video's flashing lights. The reupload had an additional line from The Voice indicating that epileptic viewers might want to look away from the screen.
217** Including the "Behind the Scenes" Mr. Rental video and the BaitAndSwitch final track, there were a total of 7 videos uploaded after the announcement of the channel's ending.
218** There are a total of seven {{Greatest Hits Album}}s (one of which is in two parts), though two of them (2 and 5) were jokes.
219** The King for Another Day takeover lasted 7 days, ending on 7/7.
220* ArtifactDomination: [[spoiler:The Crown in ''King For Another Day'', before the finals between [[VideoGame/JetSetRadio DJ Professor K]] and Mariya Takeuchi, revealed that it was sentient and wanted the tournament to last forever, taking over Unregistered Hypercam 2 and turning him into [[OneWingedAngel Unrestrained Hypercam 2]] in an attempt to achieve that goal.]]
221* AscendedExtra: ''WesternAnimation/TheNutshack'' was only used in around one or two rips during the reboot, but after the reboot ended, the amount of rips using it raised significantly.
222* AscendedMeme: The album ''Somewhat Responsive to Requests'' was born from fans requesting for a Franchise/TouhouProject album, with both the album and the reveal referencing the "[=2hu=] album when/there will never be a touhou album" meme.
223* AssShove: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEE0oeTZW6c "Main Theme (Remastered Version) - New Ghostbusters 2"]]:
224-->'''Not Vinesauce Joel:''' And all of a sudden I find myself in a HauntedHouse, and I'm surrounded by 8-Bit Beasts! What the fuck? They're trying to shove a giant brick up my ass! Not good. And then I lie down in bed wiping my bloody butt...
225* AWildRapperAppears: Music/{{DMX}} appears in the middle of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EMuEZ_I6D0 "GO MY WAY!! (REM@STER-A)"]] (which is a "Snow Halation" mashup until then) before leaving shortly after.
226* BackstoryHorror: [=SiIvaGunner=] himself is completely harmless LivingStatue that just wants to create high quality rips, right? Well, no. According to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-BW3DGgJlw this piece of lore]], [=SiIva=] is a HumanoidAbomination from space that once killed a completely innocent person just to steal his computer.
227* BaitAndSwitch: Every single "high quality rip" is actually this (except for a ''very'' small number of rips [[DoubleSubversion that are unedited]]). Platform/YouTube frowns on this behavior, which likely played a role in the original channel's termination. The channel description has only a small hint to the true nature of the channel, with the insertion of the statement "(All content is willingly submitted by a team of content creators.)" into what is otherwise [=GilvaSunner's=] description copied word-for-word. Notable examples within the rips themselves below.
228** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xU_w9A_dL04 Main Theme (Anniversary Edition) - Wii Shop Channel]] rip does this ''three times over''. For the first 53 seconds, the percussion solo from the intro loops, making the listener think it's a blue balls upload. [[spoiler:Then the beat from [[Music/{{Drake}} "Hotline Bling"]] kicks in, making you think that he'll just do a joke that [[ItsBeenDone has been done before]]. And ''then'' -- since the [=SiIvaGunner=] tean can't actually use the real song without getting the video blocked for content -- it turns out to be the Music/KidzBop version of "Hotline Bling".]]
229** When [=SiIva=] uploaded three certain stage themes from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterII'', the rips themselves were unedited. However, these three themes are for the characters whose names were famously switched around during localization, and rather than present them under their Japanese[[note]]Boxer = M. Bison, Claw = Balrog, Dictator = Vega[[/note]] or International[[note]]Boxer = Balrog, Claw = Vega, Dictator = M. Bison[[/note]] names, [=SiIva=] [[TakeAThirdOption assigned Boxer's theme to Vega, Claw's theme to M. Bison, and Dictator's theme to Balrog]].
230** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBAYOXc-Js0 Intro]] rip for ''[[VideoGame/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus Monty Python's Flying Circus: The Computer Game]]'' is actually the It's Man opening from the first episode of [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus the show itself]], except instead of segueing into the show's title sequence, it cuts to the very end of ''WesternAnimation/TheNutshack''[='=]s title sequence instead (this, in conjuction with the nature of Monty Python's It's Man openings, refers to ''The Nutshack'' theme song's repeated exclamation of "IT'S THE NUTSHACK!"), followed by the Monty Python foot crushing the logo for the cartoon.
231** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi1tQ1r2DqU rip]] of [[VideoGame/GuiltyGear Holy Orders]] is actually Holy Orders?, the distorted version played when fighting Robo-Ky.
232** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEvZ5vj7McM Robo's Theme]] - VideoGame/ChronoTrigger plays about two seconds of [[JustForFun/{{Rickroll}} the obvious joke]] before spectacularly steering off-course. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvUCyQPx_kI OST Version]] sounds like it's about to do the same, only to play a completely different Music/RickAstley song (specifically "Together Forever").
233** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWJQnK0wxG0 Snowdin Town (Hard Mode)]] - VideoGame/{{Undertale}} plays like the original rip, complete with subtle Snow Halation... [[spoiler:and then "F**k Da Police" by the N.W.A. plays, and then 10 seconds later, Snow Halation's vocals play anyway.]]
234** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s97TK33xN5w Flash Man Stage (Alternative Mix)]] opens on a [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} Death By Glamour]] remix, until a certain guest crashes in and replaces the song with [[VideoGame/MarioKartDS Waluigi Pinball]].
235** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aKJMD1LRVw "Final Boss - 8-Bit Beast's Haunted House"]] switches halfway through from an impressive BossRemix to just the melody on a kazoo and silly vocal noises.
236** At the end of the ''[=SiIvaGunner=]: King for a Day Tournament'' event, a video titled "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ef30SjtoAM ONE FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT...]]" was uploaded on September 9th, 2018. Usually, any [=SiIvaGunner=] video with the word "announcement" in it is an indication that a new album had been released on [=SiIvaGunner=]'s Bandcamp page. However, about seventeen seconds into the video, "John Notwoodman" appears to explain that the final videos of the tournament had to be delayed and that regular rips would resume shortly. The "[[https://gilvasunner.bandcamp.com/album/strings-of-fate-siivagunner-king-for-a-day-tournament-original-soundtrack STRINGS OF FATE]]" album wouldn't see release until October 8th, at which point [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei36uxAmP-A a more traditional announcement video was published]].
237*** On the subject of ''King for a Day Tournament'', during the period when the members of the roster were being announced, the sixteenth and final contender was [[http://twitter.com/GiIvaSunner/status/1022498075833589761 seemingly teased]] to be Monika from ''VisualNovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub''... but the following day, [[http://twitter.com/GiIvaSunner/status/1022851776746278912 the teaser changed]] to one for the ''real'' final character, WebVideo/{{Etika|WNetwork}}.
238** There were three fake reveals in King for Another Day:
239*** [=SpawnWave=] in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLWq9tDipGE this rip recapping the April SiIvaDirect]], which is a bit obvious since the moments leading up to it wasn't framed as a trailer.
240*** {{VideoGame/Undertale}}'s Sans in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mi20Dzmbaxs Boss Battle Fusion Collab]], which was also a CallBack to Sans declining his invitation in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YezL6FeMhtg Papyrus's reveal trailer]].
241*** But WesternAnimation/MrBean in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hruVMCMFrd4 Troupple King’s Secret Song (Unused Version) - Shovel Knight]] is the biggest one of all, since for a whole day until the direct, people were led to believe that he was going to compete, up until he was finally deconfirmed near the end, in which his spot was replaced by [[Franchise/AceAttorney Law and]] [[Franchise/DanganRonpa Disorder]].
242** The titles of the videos uploaded for April Fools' Day 2024 seem like they're {{Spoiler Title}}s for what the switch would be if they were uploaded on any other day, only for them to not actually describe the songs. For example, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2vDH_EXAvM Buddy Holly by Weezer but in the Mario 64 Soundfont]]" is actually "Say It Ain't So".
243* BawdySong: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiiCm7hvqpI "Pumpkin Hill (OST Version)"]] and, to a lesser extent, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beNfj2tlQ1o "Unknown from M.E. (OST Version)"]] replace much of the original lyrics with lewd homoerotic references.
244* BeachEpisode: The [=SiIvaSummer=] All-Star Festival (June 18-September 7, 2020), which encompassed a few special activities/sub-events. The channel banner changed to a beach, with each activity adding a new character to it, wearing appropriate "vacation" attire.
245* BigBad:
246** The Voice Inside Your Head. In the Reboot storyline, he's the one behind the ContinuityReboot as he believes it will solve the community's BrokenBase over "Snow halation"[[note]]One comment from him during the second ARG indicates his true motive was to protect the channel from some unknown, greater force, but this has yet to be elaborated on[[/note]]. In the ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'', he pulled a HostileShowTakeover and wants to purge all anime despite it being the source for quite a few beloved RunningGags. %%InUniverse
247** DoubleSubverted with President Haltmann, the CorruptCorporateExecutive BigBad of VideoGame/KirbyPlanetRobobot. He starts as TheDragon to The Voice, but eventually pulls a TheDogBitesBack and takes the [=SiIvaGunner=] channel for himself. Compared to The Voice, Haltmann's takeover is actually relatively beneficial for the channel, and he doesn't seem to do anything bad at first. But then, almost a year later it's revealed that he locked the ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'' in a sort of GroundhogDayLoop so he can profit from the channel indeinitely, which is a problem for anyone with a RippleEffectProofMemory such as Wood Man.
248* BilingualBonus:
249** The name of the album that's themed around Yoko Shimomura's compositions is "il settimo grande padre", literally meaning "The Seventh Grand Father" (AKA 7 Grand Dad) in Italian. Also from the same album is a remix of "Scherzo di Notte" ("Night Joke" in Italian) from ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsI'' that uses the ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' theme song, titled "Scherzo di Momenti Divertenti" ("[[Memes/FamilyGuy Funny Moments]] Joke").
250** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9klRYpB-yMw "Captain Murasa - Touhou 12: Undefined Fantastic Object"]], the last 3 lines of the "log" popup are a Japanese translation of the "you just got beaned" text.
251* BittersweetEnding: The reboot arc [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eionH4HdkW8 ends with]] [[spoiler:Chad accepting the Voice's offer to merge the universes without Snow Halation.]]
252** In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B8ADYhE_ms true ending]], [[spoiler: Chad manages to bring Snow Halation back and defeat the voice... [[HeroicSacrifice at the cost of his own life.]] And as part of the ARG revealed, the [[GreaterScopeVillain real cause of the reboot]] is still out there.]]
253* BlackComedy: In spades depending on the rip. The Music/DaftPunk tribute rips make light of the "Epilogue" video announcing their retirement, with the Guyman-Boyfriend blowing up when he loses (much like how Thomas blows up instead), and the following video "Thorns" opens with Thomas-Senpai properly getting destroyed when he loses.
254* BookEnds:
255** The last rip before the announcement of the channel ending[[note]]Later just the end of Season 1[[/note]] was of [[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire "Battle! (Wild Pokémon)"]], the same song that the first rip was of.
256** One of the first rips to get popular was the rip of ''VideoGame/SuperMario64''[='=]s "Slider", which was a simple bait-and-switch into the ''Flintstones'' theme; it became one of the most re-ripped songs as a result. On the last day of continuous rips, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiaYiWPKRVw N64DD version]] was uploaded as one of the last ones, and started the same way (albeit with Joel's infamous Grand Dad freakout overlayed onto it)... only for it to stop partway through to let [[ContinuityCavalcade just about every other running gag do their own rendition of it]].
257** After uploading the "Title Theme - 7 GRAND DAD" GrandFinale rip (as it seemed at the time), [=SiIvaGunner's=] profile picture changed to [=GilvaSunner's=] original picture of Timmy Turner's dad from 2009.
258** The first of DJ Professor K's songs released in ''King for a Day'' was "Artificial Amateurs", composed by Cryptik. The end of his journey and the last song of his takeover (both in broadcast and in release, at least before the ''VideoGame/LikeADragon'' rip) is marked by "Blading These Streets", also composed by Cryptik.
259*** His takeover starts with him proudly announcing his radio station and his credentials from winning the tournament. His last appearance for the event has him do much the same, but since the day is technically over he hesitates when describing himself and switches to say he's reading the credits.
260** One of the last rips to be released before [[Franchise/SuperMario Mario]] was {{Unperson}}ed in April Fools' Day was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lo_Vy6zsxcw Goodnight Mario - Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]], a short clip that features Mario being rolled by another Mario to fall off. In turn, one of the first rips after Mario was restored was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PW4783iwneg Good Morning Mario - Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]], which is the same clip played backwards.
261** The Shop Fusion Collab loops around to the first song in the mix (the Wii Shop theme), but since the Wii [=eShop=] has no mascot, its representative ends up being Music/{{Drake}}, referencing the long-running joke of the Wii Shop theme being mashed with "Hotline Bling".
262* BootstrappedLeitmotif: [[Franchise/LoveLive Snow Halation]] tends to be associated with Nozomi thanks to Music/TripleQ having her featured in artwork of his Snow Halation mashups, and her role in the Christmas Comeback Crisis. Thing is, Snow Halation is officially centered around [[TheLeader Honoka]], as she sings the sole solo line in the song, and is in the center for the last third of the performance. This might have to do with an episode focusing on Nozomi being partially focused on the (in-universe) creation of the song (with an episode including a performance of the song following afterward), and how she appears in the center of the group formation for the first third.
263* BreakoutCharacter: WesternAnimation/TheNutshack and [[Series/LazyTown We Are Number One]].
264** The Nutshack, while originally introduced as an [[StylisticSuck intentionally bad]] running gag to be the "villain" after the Reboot ended, proved popular enough both on and beyond the channel (mostly via "The Nutshack but..." videos) to be kept on as a regular meme on the channel, even being raised to one of the "holy trinity" alongside Grand Dad and Snow Halation.
265** We Are Number One, meanwhile, was a [[BatmanGambit deliberate]] [[invoked]][[IntendedAudienceReaction attempt]] to create a running gag that would be popular amongst fans after the disastrous [[TheScrappy Green de la Bean]] gag. It worked far better than expected: the song became incredibly popular even outside the channel, with "We Are Number One but..." videos rapidly eclipsing their "The Nutshack but..." inspirations in popularity, enough so that when the [=GoFundMe=] for Stefán Karl Stefánsson's[[note]]Robbie Rotten's actor, who sung We Are Number One[[/note]] cancer treatment came to light, it was fully funded in a matter of hours. This earned mainstream media attention, and a thank you message from Stefán in which he - and the actors for the Rottens - sung "We Are Number One" live on stream; in addition, the audio stems for the song were released separately [[ApprovalOfGod so that it would be easier for fans to "keep memeing"]]. Despite all of that, We Are Number One, at the time, was only a minor meme, until the Christmas Comeback Crisis, when the usage of it skyrocketed, much like The Nutshack before it.
266* BrokenRecord: A RunningGag that is often used on songs that have easily loopable measures. The track in question will have a singular part of it looped over and over again until the end of the rip, where it continues as normal just before the video ends.
267* BrownNote: The bean robots in the ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'' are equipped with speakers that [[SensoryAbuse blast "BITCH YOU" and "BRRTESO"]] at people to disable them.
268* TheBusCameBack:
269** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylco87FyYjU Vocal Mix]] of ''Wolf girl with you''[='=]s Title Theme features the first true appearance of Loud Nigra since the reboot.
270** [[spoiler:Despite Snow Halation being erased during the merging of the universes in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eionH4HdkW8 Normal Ending]] of the reboot, in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B8ADYhE_ms True Ending]], it makes its return.]]
271* BusCrash: After several weeks of absence, Mr. Rental eventually made a return in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiaYiWPKRVw Slider - Super Mario 64DD]], where he is presumably killed during a standoff with the police.
272* ButtMonkey: ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure''-related rips are often StylisticSuck (most obvious with the [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureBattleTendency Bloody Stream]] rips); this got increasingly prevalent as the first season went on, culminating with an entire album full of StylisticSuck rips as a [[TakeThatAudience jab]] at the people who wanted them. Notably, ''[=JoJo=]'' songs that are remixed but are under a different series' title (usually with ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' games) have been known to be consistently good. Songs that are actually under the series' name (such as from ''VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureEyesOfHeaven''), however, are usually bad on purpose. This died down after the first season.
273* CallBack:
274** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUDaUo6rJBk Final Boss (Phase 2)]] from ''VideoGame/Splatoon1'' incorporates his previous rip of [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} sans.]] as it fades out.
275** After the reboot, a few of his older, more famous ''Flintstones'' remixes (i.e. ''VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire'''s battle theme, [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Kokiri Forest]], and [[VideoGame/Splatoon1 the Splatfest theme]]) got paralleling ''Simpsons'' remixes.
276*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmfG_X2en_g The "Remastered" version]] of "donacdum" from ''VideoGame/{{Payday2}}'' is actually a reboot version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KS31dkUfuLM the original video]] ([[http://gilvasunner.bandcamp.com/track/donacdad NBGMusic's "donacdad"]]), with Joel's voice samples replaced with [[https://www.youtube.com/user/AlWikowonkavitz AlWikowonkavitz]] doing a Joel impression.
277** The rip of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTtA33u7yw0 Bowser's Theme]] from ''VideoGame/{{Super Mario 64}}'' is one of the few pre-reboot rips to feature the ThemeTune for ''VideoGame/TheSimpsons'' (one of the main {{Running Gag}}s of the reboot). During the reboot, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDjUGhaP3U0 Beta Mix]] of the same song was released, now featuring the theme tune for ''The Flintstones'' instead.
278** The High Quality Reboot began with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywwcZn5bp1Q Snow halation]], which features Windows crashing and rebooting, cutting off right before the welcome screen. One of the videos that marked the fake end of the reboot is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qw3JHp6eR98 Start-Up Opening]], which incorporates the Windows 98 startup sound.
279** Before the reboot, a rip of the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuXaS9LnIdU 3DS Mii Maker theme]] is actually an amature video of someone trying to make a Peter Griffin Mii, only to end up creating a Fred Flintstone one. Towards the end of the reboot, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5NXhEByWHY a similar Mii Channel rip]] was made that flips the premise.
280** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLXJUr1-MlE Nintendo Direct 9.1.2016]] video is one to the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcwqpDIr9LQ Sony E3 Conference 2016]] video, in that they both feature remixed clips of ''Series/TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir'' where Will freaks out over his missing video games, and they both end with InMemoriam[[invoked]] segments (the original video for the lack of Platform/PlaystationVita announcements, the later video for Platform/WiiU losing its exclusivity to Platform/Nintendo3DS).
281** ''Stagg Street Arrangements'' includes a bonus cover of "Everyday Goodbyes" by "Bob Dylan", referencing the earlier album dedicated to him.
282** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPN8xb0aQ0M This rip of Dogbass]] from ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' contains the melody of Dogbass merged into the ''Series/{{Seinfeld}}'' theme as well as some other sound effects and parts of songs from the game like the Temmie Village chirps and music. It got quite popular for [=SiIvaGunner=] standards, with over 100,000 views. This rip was referenced in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eM-seDU0eDI Main Theme (Short Version) - Deluxe Seinfeld Scene It? The DVD Game]], where the concept was practically reversed.
283** During April Fools Day 2021 (which was themed around Mario being {{unperson}}ed from his own franchise in reference to various products related to [[MilestoneCelebration his 35th anniversary]] being withdrawn from sale after March 31st), we have [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro9ssQ-c-Ko the unexpected return of Gangster Mario]] (whom the channel previously dedicated [=MAR10=] 2020 to). [[spoiler:He ends up getting killed again 13 seconds into the rip, after which his ghost rants about the poor treatment the channel has given him since his first death, referencing the ''King For Another Day'' tournament (in which he appears in the side materials as a janitor) and DJ Professor K's subsequent takeover.]]
284** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XskUN8MT2FA BIG SHOT (Alternate Route)]] from ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}'' fittingly contains one during the original song's own CallBack - during the reprise of ''The World Revolving'', sources that the latter song ripped were used, such as the ''Film/SpaceJam'' theme and '[[Series/LazyTown We Are Number One]].
285* CerebusSyndrome: The ContinuityReboot led to several darker, SensoryAbuse-laden rips - as well as the development of an actual story [[spoiler:that ultimately ends with the reveal of [[GreaterScopeVillain an unseen higher power]], the merging of two universes, and the seeming death of Chad Warren and the Voice Inside Your Head]].
286* {{Cliffhanger}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOB3ibvOwpI The OST version rip]] of [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolidVThePhantomPain "Sins of the Father]]" was uploaded on the day the parallel universe storyline was supposed to officially come to an end. The last seven seconds of the rip has the video glitching out and cutting to black, with the last thing heard being a familiar voice saying [[WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}} "Let's check it out."]]
287* ClosingCredits: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFL3swEr7Hc "Curtain Call"]] from ''VideoGame/Mother3'' acts as this for the entire channel, crediting every single contributor by name.
288* CoconutMeetsCranium: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKDlqdsw1i8 CG! Coconut gun!]]
289* CompressedAdaptation: [[http://gilvasunner.bandcamp.com/track/cave-dungeon-extended-mix-unextended-mix The album release]] of ''VideoGame/SuperMario64''[='=]s "Cave Dungeon (Extended Mix)" retains the [[WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants Jellyfish Jam]] ending, but the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7LGgB5hBMQ twelve]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIH_OZ13M6o hour]] [[OverlyLongGag buildup]] was replaced with the song's original intro.
290* ContentWarnings: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKDBaw6rGL0 "Stage 1-4 Intro - Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine"]] opens with a warning: "This rip contains images of beans that some viewers may find uncomfortable. If you become irritated or start acting irrationally, immediately stop viewing and consult a doctor." This was an early remake of one of the deleted Green de la Bean rips, and it still features the character but without the SensoryAbuse that originally accompanied it.
291* ContinuityReboot:
292** It began on June 17th, 2016, when [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywwcZn5bp1Q this]] "Snow halation" video featured the channel "crashing" ala Platform/MicrosoftWindows. Immediately after, many changes became apparent.
293*** The channel icon changed to an odd, anaglyphic version of the normal one.
294*** The channel's banner became bereft of Grand Dad and company ([[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Homer Simpson]], [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Peter Griffin]], and [[VideoGame/TheIdolMaster Haruka Amami]] eventually took their place).
295*** His Twitter name had "*reboot*" appended to it.
296*** "Please read the channel description" and "I only upload high quality video game rips" became "Read the channel description, please" and "I upload high quality video game rips only".
297*** The main RunningGag of the channel went from being ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'' to ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' and ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy''.
298** The reboot ended on July 8th, 2016, when the Voice Inside Your Head's MergedReality proposal [[spoiler:is accepted by Chad Warden, and all the aforementioned changes have reverted to what they were before]], with the exception of the channel icon (which became an unaltered photo of the statue of Antinous, the source of the real [=GilvaSunner=]'s icon) and banner (in which Homer, Peter, and Haruka were gone and Grand Dad was back in the lighthouse, but Nozomi and Loud Nigra were still absent). [[spoiler:24 hours later, Chad brings back Snow Halation himself, and all of the changes are completely reverted, for good (though it took nearly two weeks for Homer, Peter, and Haruka to be added back into the lighthouse to reflect the new status quo).]]
299* CoverVersion: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbzVGlzF0XI "6 PM - Animal Crossing"]] is a rendition of [[Music/YellowMagicOrchestraAlbum "Simoon"]] by Music/YellowMagicOrchestra.
300* TheCoverChangesTheMeaning: Well, the ''Remix'' changes the meaning, but the [=KFAD=] song, "Thank You, Everybody!" is a mashup of Fragile by Tatsuro Yamashita and "Thank You" by Tyler, the Creator (which happened to sample from the song the previous song). While "Fragile" originally was a sweet song about the singer thanking their lover for how they improved their life, while "Thank You" turned the meaning into the singer thanking their lover but saying that they also broke their heart, "Thank You, Everybody!" uses both songs to create a song that has the singer thanking the ''listener'', especially if you put in the context of the song in the tournament, being one of the last songs to be released before the winner was announced.
301* CreepyCircusMusic: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Su4o4CxqAI0 Mad Jack Battle (Beta Mix)]]" combines the frantic brass and strings of [[VideoGame/DonkeyKong64 Mad Jack]]'s battle theme with the equally frantic melody of "[[VideoGame/{{Deltarune}} The World Revolving]]." Mad Jack's creepy laugh is heard multiple times throughout the video to add to the effect.
302* CrownOfPower: The crown in the "King for Another Day Tournament" video possesses Unregistered Hypercam 2 near the end of the tournament to turn the wearer into Unrestrained Hypercam 2.
303* CulturalCrossReference: The channel frequently throws jokes in some rips that only foreigners may understand, especially Brazilian ones. [[MeaningfulReleaseDate In the day September 7th]] the channel ran twice in 2016 and 2017 a specific example of this trope in a couple of rips to celebrate the Independence Day in the country.
304* CurbStompBattle: From the first tournament, the biggest landslide was Reggie Fils-Aimé vs. Thanos [[spoiler:75.4%-24.6% in Reggie's favor]]. The second tournament somehow managed to top it with the biggest landslide in ''both'' tournaments with [=MissingNo.=] vs. [=HOBaRT=] [[spoiler:'''78.1%-21.9%''' in [=MissingNo.'s=] favor]].
305* DarkerAndEdgier: Rips on the [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Q9CaWvV5_x90Z9VZ5cxmg Flustered Fernando]] side-channel lean heavily in this direction, as the entire point of the channel was to upload/re-upload rips that couldn't be left on the main channel for fear of alienating viewers and being flagged. These include all of the bean rips, all of the 9/11 rips, a series of rips "celebrating" the 10-year anniversary of the Michael Richards Laugh Factory incident, the infamous Pupa scene, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking an unaltered, HD version of the I Love Egg song]].
306* ADayInTheLimelight: Every so often, the channel will upload a lot of rips focusing on one joke or source, usually on a relevant anniversary or date; see MeaningfulReleaseDate.SiIvaGunner.
307* DeaderThanDead: In the King for a Day tournament, Ajit Pai is treated as this after losing to ComicBook/{{Thanos}}, who inflicted CessationOfExistence on Pai's stock icon in his victory screen. Pai doesn't even show up for the final character shot.
308* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: The album title for "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2J_g4fJKWIo Unknown from M.E. (OST Version)]] - VideoGame/SonicAdventure" is "Knuckles from K.N.U.C.K.L.E.S. & Knuckles: Knuckles in Knuckles the Echidna feat. Knuckles from the Knuckles the Echidna Series [Knuckles of the Year Edition] & Knuckles (Full Version & Knuckles)."
309* DidntWeUseThisJokeAlready: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcwqpDIr9LQ Main Theme - Sony E3 Conference 2016]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLXJUr1-MlE Main Theme - Nintendo Direct 9.1.2016]] both use the same clip of ''Series/TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir'', with Will's dialogue edited to ask "Where the [[Platform/PlaystationVita Vita]] games?"/"Where the Platform/WiiU games?" A memorial for the console then appears (complete with somber ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' music), but in the latter rip, [=SiIvaGunner=] faintly says "Wait a second, didn't we already make this joke before?"
310* DoubleSubversion:
311** The ''Demo'', ''Alpha Mix'', ''Original Mix'', ''Alternate Mix'', ''Unused'', and ''Unused Demo'' versions of [[VideoGame/SonicHeroes Grand Metropolis]] are this. The AprilFoolsDay videos were originally this too, but were renamed to BaitAndSwitch titles indicating them as [[BlatantLies "APRIL FOOL'S REMIXES"]] the day after.
312** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gM35fzwFPA K.K. Cruisin']] from the Gurando no Mori album is just a genuine jazz cover of the original song, with no twists.
313** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dyiko56Dk5A Fossil Falls - Super Mario Odyssey]] was also a genuine jazz cover with no twists.
314*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkGxd_lfw6k Play a Mini-Game!]] is also just a jazz cover with no other twists.
315* TheDragon: [[spoiler: Woodman]] works for the voice, and [[spoiler:keeping the Voice alive is why he hijacked the channel.]]
316* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness:
317** The earliest videos had the image change into a more fitting one when the ruse was revealed (i.e. showing Grand Dad when the ''Flintstones'' theme kicked in, which can be seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9eMRFPtKbA here]]). [=SiivaGunner=] has re-uploaded some of them, but they now have a constant image throughout.
318** The ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'' rip of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMS2j_TbTVk "The Evil King Bowser"]] features [=SiIvaGunner=] speaking, but his voice was provided by Microsoft Sam, rather than [=VoiceForge=]'s Wiseguy.
319* EasterEgg:
320** Certain rips begin to incorporate another song as they fade out. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=my82UjjENcE "The Grand Finale - Mario & Luigi Bowser's Inside Story"]], for example, incorporates a bit of [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} "Megalovania"]] mere seconds before the video ends. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXa3VSCI2NI "Tutorial - Friday Nght Funkin'"]] does the same thing, only soundlessly.
321** Other videos have abnormal descriptions. For example, [=25M=] from ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong'' changes "Please read the channel description" into "HOW MUCH OF THE CHANNEL DESCRIPTION CAN YOU READ?", and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnYhR3ysSEc SUPERHOT]] has the description almost entirely full of the word "{{VideoGame/SUPERHOT}}".
322** The description of each [[Franchise/LoveLive "Snow Halation"]] upload contains a quote from a member of μ's.
323** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaEkLM50y74 "Green Hill Zone (REVXB) - Sonic the Hedgehog"]] has [[spoiler:the video very briefly zooming out to show a sprite animation mimicking a sequence from [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGoToTheMovies what the rip is referencing]]]]. It's very easy to miss for listeners that aren't paying attention to the video itself.
324* TheElevatorFromIpanema: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnfSf2uhFww "The Smol from Tokyo,"]] which accompanies the elevator ride to Floor 77 in CCC Episode 11, is a remix of "The Girl from Ipanema." (The vocals are taken from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8_FKs5tIXs "5PM (OST Version)"]] from ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingNewLeaf'', one of several [=SiIvaGunner=] rips based on this tune.)
325* TheEndingChangesEverything: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVS5wsXyOxs Behind the Scenes - Mr Rental: The Video Game]] reveals that [[spoiler:the Mr. Rental seen in the main Mr. Rental rips was actually an EvilTwin, [[http://www.mrrental.com.au/your-options/ownership-option Mr. Own]], while the Mr. Rental seen in the ''Looney Tunes'' title theme rips was the real one, who was GoodAllAlong]].
326* EndOfSeriesAwareness: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPzL6vI3Uqg "Staff Credits"]] from ''[[VideoGame/SuperMonkeyBall Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz]]'' (posted the day before the channel's end) says "Finally, the time has come, it's the last r-r-rip with a Coconut Gun."
327* ExactWords: Some uploads will give you what the song's title describes.
328** "[[https://gilvasunner.bandcamp.com/track/we-love-burning-town-feat-a-burning-town We Love Burning Town]]". [[spoiler:It's a burning town.]]
329** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcTdrLDuDWY "All at Once"]] is apparently [[SensoryAbuse every single rip and/or meme from [=SiIva=]'s channel up to that point]].
330** The high quality rip of the song "End of the World", from ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsI'', indeed features a song named "End of the World". However, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX7Oc6Qc6us the song in the video]] is actually the finale version of the second opening theme of the 2014 anime adaptation of ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders''.
331** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnA0-dAen7A Silence]]'' from ''VideoGame/FZero''. [[spoiler:Until the end, that is.]]
332** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txZxRDvpJ9g This rip]] of [[VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance Against the Black Knight]] is [[spoiler:actually a rip of the battle theme of [[VideoGame/ShovelKnight another Black Knight]]. The inverse is done in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-RoJoqOFrc this rip]] of The Defender (Black Knight Battle)]].
333** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzM9X4lq_JA High Drop]] from ''VideoGame/{{Killzone}}'' 2 is actually a skit where one of the soldiers does drop from a great height.
334** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0qeiAWRsBg Launch Base Zone (Act 1)]] from ''VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles'' is really a Genesis remix of the ''Sonic & Knuckles Collection'' version's theme.
335** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUti4FG-fl4 Three Minutes Clapping]] from ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou'' is literally that.
336** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIcbDjyQeWw "Original Mix"]] of It's Showtime from ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' is quite literally the song Showtime from ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}''. (Fitting enough since its developer, Creator/TobyFox, created numerous songs for the webcomic.)
337** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEUPgf-rRTE Dream Land]] from [[Franchise/TouhouProject Lotus Land Story]] is a remix of [[VideoGame/KirbySuperStar Gourmet Race]], or in other words, Dream Land from ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros64''.
338** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSWCIQOgF5E Gallery]] from ''VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureEyesOfHeaven'' features a literal gallery... [[spoiler:...Of WebVideo/AngryJoe pictures, set to a remix of Roundabout.]]
339** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_clIyM_pGWo Metal Scratchin' (Blazy Mix)]] from ''VideoGame/SonicRush'' is literally just the sounds of metal scratching against metal.
340** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1JlIbQeSR0 Theme of Friends]] from ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts358DaysOver2'' is "I'll Be There For You". In other words, it is indeed the Theme of ''Series/{{Friends}}''.
341** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNlKQEMHUvg A Few Musical Notes from Game Developer Toby Fox]] plays the first four notes of Megalovania. So the rip delivers exactly what was promised: a few notes from a song done by Toby Fox.
342** Inverted with [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dmKTA41VbJA Silencio]] from OFF, which consists entirely of loud noises.
343** On April 23rd, 2022, Siiva posted a countdown for a video titled "The Fusion Collab Everyone's Been Waiting For". It turned out to be a fusion collab based on the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQUyidbX3EA YouTube Premiere waiting room countdown music]].
344* EvilOverlooker: On July 21st, 2016, fans have noticed the Platform/YouTube channel art was updated to feature a very, very faint image of the head of Tito Dick (one of the stars of the infamous cartoon show ''WesternAnimation/TheNutshack'', the theme song of which having risen to prominence in the channels video game rips since the end of the reboot). Since then, Dick's head had become a bit clearer. Throughout the month of August 2016, Tito Dick's opacity would fluctuate randomly ranging from almost invisible, to very visible, until the tower disappeared at the end of the month.
345* FadeToBlack: [[spoiler:The merging of the universes ends with a clip of Honoka from the music video for Snow Halation fading away.]]
346* FandomNod: Deliberately [[InvokedTrope invoked]] in the lore. The team is ''very'' aware what the fans think of each RunningGag. For example, the reboot was caused by the [=SiIvaGunner=] fandom's [[TheScrappy extreme hate]] towards "[[Franchise/LoveLive Snow halation]]", represented by the channel crashing because of a problem with the file "HALATION.SYS" which was caused by "COMMUNITY_DISCOURSE". During later videos, The Voice Inside Your Head makes nods to the various shenanigans that occurred throughout the reboot videos' comment sections, such as the "[[Franchise/{{Kirby}} Dedede]] Squad". The ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'' videos go even further with this, for example turning Green de la Bean, a meme the fans absolutely hated, into an antagonist.
347* FakeOutFadeOut: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kF2gddb-yBY "Treasure Chest Open"]] rip from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword'' employs this.
348* FakeOutOpening:
349** Some videos start out as being presented as just a still image of the game's title (just like the majority of the rips), only to switch over to an actual video at one (often early) point.
350** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ntm2MQmTwx4 "Be Cool, Be Wild, and Be Groovy"]] rip from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'' appears to be yet another "Snow halation" mashup, only for Dr. Eggman to [[RunningGagged put an abrupt end to it]]. The real mashup is of "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" by Jet, with interjections from Eggman and Big the Cat. This was later followed up with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOimFoRo0CQ the 20th Anniversary version]], in which Eggman references the original and allows Snow halation to proceed. [[spoiler:It ends, however, with [[WestrenAnimation/TheNutShack Jack]] dedicating the video to Tito Dick, followed by ''The Nutshack'' theme playing over a panicking Eggman]].
351* FictionalVideoGame: Rarely there has been rips of non-existent games including [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLL0CQjrcN8D2t-yq6Wjkp9QlVYaw3v0nv Zeno Blade Chronicle X]], a pirate version of VideoGame/XenobladeChroniclesX and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQWb4ODbkCI Half-Zombie in the Steel Stronghold]], which has only one song for it.
352* ForcedMeme:
353** [[InUniverse According to]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBir5JLgfqw&t=2m31s Chad Warden]], ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'' theme was one from the beginning, and [[https://soundcloud.com/djfruitsnackz/history-of-grand-dad this]] [[PoorCommunicationKills poorly-made]] description of the meme's origin supports his claim.
354** "Snow Halation." The vast majority of other {{Running Gag}}s originate from places other than the channel, but "Snow Halation" as a meme originates entirely from being prominent contributor [[Music/TripleQ Triple-Q's]] favorite song from ''Franchise/LoveLive'' and pushing it alongside the other prominent running gags.
355** The theme song to ''WesternAnimation/TheNutshack'', after being featured in the ARG, has been introduced as another forced meme. It has been received relatively better than "Snow Halation", although some still don't like the effort of trying to meme something else.
356* {{Foreshadowing}}:
357** The Mii Maker rip (a video of someone searching for a [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Peter Griffin]] UsefulNotes/{{Mii}} tutorial, and subsequently making one of [[WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones Fred Flintstone]]) rather eerily parallels the ContinuityReboot.
358** There are two main clues concerning TheReveal that [[spoiler:the SerialKiller Mr. Rental from his own rips is a different person than the NiceGuy Mr. Rental from the ''Looney Tunes'' rips]]: [[spoiler:a moment where the former, actually Mr. Own, ''buys'' a phone, and the fact that their car is crudely rendered in MS Paint (sticking out like a sore thumb in the generally angular art style used in the ''Looney Tunes'' rips).]]
359** [[https://i.redd.it/x1x99v9oql3y.jpg An image included with ''Volume 7'' depicts an upside-down triangle with a small purple circle in the center.]] [[https://i.reddituploads.com/1843d400e54c4c1ea8d4c3cc2c4885a8?fit=max&h=1536&w=1536&s=1de5173791fcb22cc32b7f9a1a17c8af Wood Man's final farewell on Twitter]] has a portrait of someone with that same triangle for a head in the upper-left. ''The [=SiIvaGunner=] Christmas Comeback Crisis'' reveals that person to be [[spoiler:the physical form of the Voice Inside Your Head]].
360** What about the sudden mass liking of MINECRAFT things, only for Inspector Gadget (Minecrap) to take over 7 months later?
361* FreezeFrameBonus:
362** The music notes that appear in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4MbZWtq27g Music Maker 1]] before being erased are actually the first few notes of ([[RunningGag what else?]]) ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'' theme.
363** Some 2016 rips have Green de la Bean appear in just one frame.
364* GagCensor:
365** In the album art for ''Volume 3 & Knigra'', [=GilvaSunner=]'s avatar is covered by the [[WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones Fred Flintstone]] star and Loud Nigra is covered by the [=GilvaSunner=] Seal of Quality.
366** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7dOMYuKC7A This rip]] of [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure "Skydeck a Go!Go!"]] (a mashup with "Bonfire" by Music/ChildishGambino) censors all of the latter song's obscenities with various ''Sonic'' sound effects.
367** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxgFDrs47sg The rip]] of [[Franchise/TouhouProject "Beloved Tomboyish Girl"]] features the infamous "Russian Dongcopter" video and uses [[WesternAnimation/TheNutshack Tito]] [[VisualPun Dick]]'s head as a censor.
368** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHfbjaiCvYU YouTube]] and "[[https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/842341 SFW]]" Newgrounds versions of "This announcement is not on [=YouTube=]." (AKA "7 GRAND AWESOME"), a video which goes through the plot of VideoGame/TheFlintstonesTheRescueOfDinoAndHoppy and ends with the Great Gazoo spinning his meat for thirty seconds, censors the meatspin with a black censor bar reading "V E R Y CENSORED[.] Seriously, you don't wanna see this." Completely averted in the NSFW Newgrounds version, where "the Great Gazoo's Great Gherkin" is visible for all to see.
369%%* GenreRoulette
370* AGlitchInTheMatrix: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaTEFPR_kQI OST Version]] of ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2''[='=]s 2-Player Emerald Hill Zone theme uses [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DIP7BiaB1Y this knockoff]] of the ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1'' ThemeTune, playing into the "[[Memes/SuperMarioBros Mario Dies After March 31st 2021]]" event that was going on at the time. After the first loop, the real ''[=SMB=]'' theme periodically starts playing instead, only for the audio to immediately glitch out for a split second before resuming with the knockoff.
371* GoneHorriblyWrong: The [=SiIva=] Direct stream for July 11th, 2016. [=SiIvaGunner=] hypes up a brand new high quality rip, only for it to end up being delayed. He then tries to make up for it by playing footage of a live concert performance of "Snow Halation", but this causes the entire stream to be blocked by Lantis, the record label of the ''Love Live'' franchise.
372* GrandfatherClause:
373** ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'' (no pun intended). The theme appeared in [=SiIvaGunner=]'s debut video and went on to be the channel's most frequent recurring joke ever, but it has been met with virtually no resistance from the fans or the team even after several years. ''The Flintstones'' has pretty much become synonymous with the channel, so it understandably continues to appear in rips. Sometimes it's treated as an ObligatoryJoke, but not enough to discredit it. This also applies to [[Franchise/LoveLive "Snow halation"]], to a lesser extent.
374** While the channel aims to mimic the actual [=GilvaSunner=] channel with its video metadata, some of the older rips on the channel were inaccurate to [=GilvaSunner=]'s uploads. Most of these were later fixed in 2017, by way of [[OrwellianRetcon renames, description changes, and custom thumbnails in the case of a wrong image]], but a few innacuracies have been kept - ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'''s "Slider" being listed incorrectly as "Slide" by the real [=GilvaSunner=] is one example of a mistake that [=SiIvaGunner=] doesn't bother replicating, since "Slider" has one of the most iconic rips [[RunningGag and is one of the most re-ripped songs on the entire channel]].
375* GrandFinale:
376** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eionH4HdkW8 A Grand New Era ~Ending~]] is this to the reboot storyline. However, after completing an additional ARG, the fans achieved the [[GoldenEnding True Ending]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B8ADYhE_ms of the reboot]], where instead of resigning to Snow Halation's fate, Chad fights back against the Voice Inside Your Head, stating that [=SiIvaGunner=] does not make rips for the fans, but [[ThePowerOfLove rather out of love.]] Using this love and the MF Like Button, Chad [[spoiler:vanquishes the The Voice Inside Your Head and saves Snow Halation]].
377** On October 1st, 2016, '[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuFYGf_yKY8 the nutshack theme but the first nutshack is replaced with me ending the channel]]' was uploaded. The man shown in the video is Chaze the Chat, [=SiIva=] himself, announcing the end of uploads on the channel. He also stated there are two more rips to be uploaded (will be noted when uploaded).
378*** The collection of Ending and Credits rips leading up October 1st also count, most notably [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaXxs0ZvDlc File Select Fusion]], which featured a collaboration with Joel, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kavwoa8WELo Battle! (Wild Pokémon) (High Quality) - Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire)]], a version of the original channel's first rip updated to include the channel's more recent memes.
379** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VcYz6KZtqs&t=0s Title Theme & Ending - 7 GRAND DAD]].
380* GratuitousRussian: The "ДА" and "НЕТ" buttons in the rips of "Puzzle Room (Rhythm Code)" from ''VideoGame/KirbyPlanetRobobot'', both the mercifully deleted original and the various remakes/alternate versions, being a ShoutOut to the continue screen of a Russian bootleg version of ''VideoGame/FelixTheCat'' and a ''WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}}'' clip reacting to it and the disturbing [[GameOver "ИГРА ОКОНЧЕНА"]] screen that followed it. The channel also has a rip titled "нет головоломки?"[[labelnote:translation]]"no puzzle?"[[/labelnote]], which is based on a "Puzzle Room" fan remix with the same title.
381* GroundhogDayLoop: Had one on Groundhog Day 2017.
382** The Christmas Comeback Crisis's timeline is also described as this by Wood Man in the side story, although it's not perfect, and has "trapped the "real real world" in it", explaining why memes/figments from 2017 & 2018 have proliferated. Only Wood Man is aware of this loop, though. In his words, "It feels like we're moving forward, but at the same time... we're not moving at all."
383* GruesomeGoat: A few of the rips in early 2020 will feature a JumpScare by a taxidermized baby goat.
384* GuestStar: There's been times when other [=YouTubers=] submitted their own rips to the channel. However, like all the other rippers, they go uncredited.
385** [=LarryInc64=], another video game music channel, made [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Sz1vqFVyiA Buy Somethin' Will Ya! (Beta Mix)]]. He would later make more rips and become part of the channel's team.
386** Aztrosist helped [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdLNkrxQYB8 in advertising Grand Dad 64]].
387** [=GilvaSunner=] (the real one) participated in an AprilFoolsDay joke by uploading [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KH0vLOpxis Final Destination]] to his channel. He kindly credits a fraction of the team in the description.
388*** In 2017, the two channels swapped upload schedules with eachother (the channels' content still remained the same though).
389** [=RelaxAlax=] made a SelfParody of his Know Your Moves series for the channel in, fittingly enough, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67ZrbZI3EZk a Smash Bros. rip]].
390** Creator/CharlesMartinet reprised his role as Mario for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_xZ7yXiFws It's a me, Mario!]]
391** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBNH3dS3ehU Live and Learn (Live Version)]] features Jun Senoue being shown [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOEvlJVjnF0 a certain famous rip]] (and having a good laugh over it).
392** Music/TheLivingTombstone did [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8o6TebIOa0 a joke remix]] of his famous ''Five Nights at Freddy's'' song, and submitted it to the channel. He later did the same with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhlXfohmdPY his Five Nights at Freddy's 4]] song.
393[[/folder]]
394
395[[folder:H-P]]
396* HappyBirthdayToYou:
397** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFAPd86aS7E This video]] implements the melody into [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} "His Theme"]], referencing ''Undertale'''s one year anniversary.
398** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ostxyvgQwx4 "Circus (Birthday Mix)"]] pitch-shifts [[Music/SouljaBoy "Crank That"]] to match the song, as it was made for Soulja Boy's birthday.
399* HappyEndingOverride: The ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'' reveals that [[spoiler:due to The Voice being a Figment/human hybrid, he was able to survive Chad's MF Like Button by using Wood Man to keep the idea of The Voice alive, thus preserving him as a Figment. He then created a program to bring Figments into the real world, and used it to bring himself and the other Figments alive so he could take over the world.]]
400* TheHero:
401** Chad Warren serves as the protagonist of the reboot arc, an ardent defender of "Snow halation".
402** Nozomi takes up his stead in the Christmas special for similar reasons.
403* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:It's heavily implied that Chad died after using the MF Like Button to destroy The Voice and restore Snow Halation.]][[note]]Though he later makes a small reappearance in the 8/14/2016 stream, simply saying that Psy x Nozomi is [[spoiler: ballin'.]][[/note]]
404* HesBack: The very first rip uploaded after Mario being RetGone was undone is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwis4e4AOiE Mario saying]], [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch "It's-a me, bitch!"]]
405** [[spoiler:[=SiIvaGunner=] himself finally woke up in Episode 11 of the [=SiIvaGunner=] Christmas Comeback Crisis.]]
406* {{Homage}}: ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'' is one to ''VideoGame/KirbyPlanetRobobot'' - its plot is relatively the same (an outside force turning a once-natural land into a purely mechanical one, and a small, cute hero(ine) putting an end to it), and the former's videos always cull music from the latter (most notably [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SCKrU75WCw the prologue]], an homage to the game's intro). Also, the latter game's BigBad makes a few appearances, and his {{leitmotif}} turns up far more frequently in the Christmas rips.
407* HostileShowTakeover:
408** Wood Man took over the channel after the Halloween special ended; however, all he did was shitpost on Twitter before leaving to fight Mega Man.
409** A straighter example is the Voice Inside Your Head returning; he's the ArcVillain of the Christmas special and makes his motives apparent in the channel and video descriptions.
410* HousePseudonym: In the album releases, artists who wanted to remain uncredited are given the name "Barney Rubble". For ''GSHQVGR Vol. FOUR HOURS!'', the house pseudonym was changed to "Principal Seymour Skinner" due to the album being a compilation of reboot songs. On other albums, uncredited artists are similarly given names related to the album's focus.
411* HumanPopsicle: This is apparently the explanation for Dat Boi's (a quintessentially 2016 meme) brief channel takeover in 2020, with the rip [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTeyuY6ZfwA Game Over - Dat Boi]] indicating that he was cryogenically preserved in an attempt to bring old memes into the future. The former rip, which serves as the BadEnd for the takeover, has Dat Boi suffering from atrophy and hypothermia as a result of him being incompatible in 2020, culminating in his long and painful death. However, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkK3G_AH2bI True Ending]] rip ends with Dat Boi cycling to the tune of "Snow Halation" sung by the voice synthesizer Daniel (UK).
412* {{Hypocrite}}:
413** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6j-SpK5SvU this video]], The Voice Inside Your Head proposes the option of [[MergedReality merging the Pre-Reboot and Post-Reboot universes]] without "Snow Halation", claiming that while ''The Flintstones'' ThemeTune is beloved and fits in well to any song, "Snow Halation" has caused too much discourse among [=SiIvaGunner=]'s fans due to being "weeb shit" (among other things). A few days later, a rip of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9juELxrHwg video was uploaded]] featuring the Voice's cover of "Go My Way". It even opens with the Voice giving a short speech thanking the fans for ensuring that there would be no more idol music on the channel.
414** The Naxx Guyfieri and Doge Mayer commercial has them spout off about how much they love ''all'' their fans and are willing to contact the next 100 that call in, but then they specify that they only want female fans and "no ugly chicks".
415* IdiosyncraticCoverArt: simultaneously released albums, especially the double-released albums, typically have covers that compliment each other:
416** The ''Rips of Christmas'' albums have covers showing a simplistic doodle of a character important to the channel against a single-color background: ''Past'' had President Haltmann on the cover, ''Future'' featured Wood Man, and ''Present'' had Smol Nozomi.
417** The volumes ''for Wii U'' & ''for Nintendo 3DS'' are respectively based on the front and back covers of [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosForNintendo3DSAndWiiU their collective namesake's]] ''A Smashing Soundtrack'' compilation.
418** ''Volume C'' and ''Volume D'' are based on the covers of albums that released close to each other at the time, ''[[Music/{{Drake}} Certified Lover Boy]]'' and ''[[Music/KanyeWest Donda]]''.
419** ''Volume FF'' and ''Volume DQ'' parody the Japanese covers of the first ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyI'' and ''VideoGame/DragonQuestI'', Creator/SquareEnix's trademark [=RPGs=].
420** ''Volume Ruby'' and ''Volume Sapphire'' have cover art parodying the games that started it all, ''VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire'', complete with "box legendaries" riffing on Grand Dad and Smol Nozomi.
421* ImmediateSelfContradiction: Once, after fans sniffed out a [[StylisticSuck "low quality rip"]], [=SiIva=] congratulated the fans on finding it in the comments of another video of his. This exchange resulted:
422-->'''kaabiimaster:''' i thought you only uploaded high quality rips\
423'''[=SiIvaGunner=]:''' [[CharacterCatchphrase I only upload high quality video game rips.]]
424* TheImmodestOrgasm: The sound of [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/loud-nigra "Loud Nigra"]], which is used as a RunningGag on the channel, is essentially an [[ExaggeratedTrope Exaggerated]] example of this trope to the absolute extreme.
425* InconsistentSpelling: How is [=SiIvaGunner=]'s name supposed to be spelled/pronounced? The channel seems to deliberately waver on the subject, referring to the channel and character as both "[=SiIvaGunner=]" (with a second i) and "[=SilvaGunner=]" (with an L). The {{Greatest Hits Album}}s used an L up to the 8th volume, then switched to an I. ''[=SilvaGunner=]: Rebooted'' and ''The [=SilvaGunner=] Christmas Comeback Crisis'' use an L, but then for the ''King for a Day'' series and ''CCC'' side stories since 2019, it's an i (but even those ''CCC'' episodes are then referred to with an L in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qz_qTDtpCN8 one]] video's description). InUniverse, The Voice Inside Your Head always refers to it with an L, while Chad Warden says "[[AcCENTUponTheWrongSylLABle SEE-vuh-gonn-NAHH]]" and the ''King for Another Day Tournament MOJO!!'' website has all characters using a second i, except for Unregistered HyperCam 2 who sometimes uses an L. This list goes on.
426* IncrediblyLongNote:
427** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08R1xfO5JYs Prologue (Castle Gate)]] from ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaI''.
428** [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 Live and]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOEvlJVjnF0 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO]]
429** [[VideoGame/MegaMan1 Elec Man]][[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJzqcEp2hmU 's theme]] has one that lasts 10 seconds... [[ThrowItIn and the rest of the video is just the beat and triangle wave.]]
430** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGmY9lv9gI0 His World]]'' from VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006, with added Loud Nigra, Magic Missiles, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick the Spoken Wikipedia Project article on "Cock and Ball Torture"]].
431** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMCvCa0FRiQ Game Over]]'' from VideoGame/SegaRally has one that lasts ''36 minutes''. [[spoiler:At 17:36 you can hear a voice whispering "grand dad", and at 23:27 you can hear a door knock three times.]]
432** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVb_if7Taqg Uncontrollable]]'' from VideoGame/XenobladeChroniclesX has one that starts at 1:09 which then changes to the [[RunningGag Flintstones theme]] at 2:09. This repeats at the 2:19 mark.
433** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9TCICJ4G48 Start:DASH!]]'' from VideoGame/LoveLiveSchoolIdolFestival...the second note lasts ''three minutes'' until a BaitAndSwitch occurs toward the end.
434** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uf446sD6xyw Ice Man]]'' from VideoGame/MegaMan1 has one that starts at the 12 second mark and lasts for the rest of the video.
435* InnocuouslyImportantEpisode: The rip of the ''VideoGame/LoveLiveSchoolIdolFestival'' song "Futari Happiness (NOZOMI Mix)" (in which [=SiIvaGunner=]'s "[=HQripper=] 7.0" software causes problems with the rip, forcing him to get new ripping software from Loud Nigra) turns out to be connected with the reboot, according to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN7ptE55rV4 this video]][[labelnote:*]]though the first part of the audio had previously been distributed to people involved in the ARG[[/labelnote]].
436* InsistentTerminology: [=SiIvaGunner=]'s videos don't contain "music", "remixes", "mashups", or anything like that. They contain ''"High Quality Video Game Rips"''.
437* InterfaceSpoiler:
438** A lot of commenters correctly predict a "Snow Halation" mashup when the video is 4:20 in length (occasionally plus or minus a second due to random errors in rendering).
439** "Oh cool, they uploaded a rip called 'Theme of [=HOBaRT=]'! [[spoiler:Wait, why is it age-restricted?"]]
440* InTheStyleOf: The defining trait of the channel and what sets it apart, more than half of its discography consists of songs InTheStyleOf whatever video game (the other half being the "mashup" remixes), either using audio assets ripped out of the game (for retro games) or tracking down the original instrument software used in making the song (for modern games). Became {{exaggerated}} after the early years of the channel, as nowadays they'll do all that is possible to upkeep accuracy to the track being imitated.
441* ItsTheSameNowItSucks: [[invoked]] Parodied with regards to the ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros'' series in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqA7sKp5ohU this]] video. It's ostensibly the overworld theme from ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosWii'' (and uses that game's logo for the thumbnail), but the song itself is the title theme from ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros1'', with the image being ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros2'''s logo and the playlist link in the description going to that of ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosU''.
442* JumpScare:
443** At the last second of [[spoiler:"Stage Start (Alternate Mix) - VideoGame/DonkeyKong", which is mostly a remix of the main theme of ''VideoGame/LuigisMansion'', Loud Nigra comes in, and it's louder than the rest of the video.]]
444** The lone rip of ''VideoGame/SpookysJumpScareMansion'', predictably, is mostly quiet... save for several abrupt, [[SensoryAbuse loud]] soundbites from the channel's {{Running Gag}}s.
445** Any rip that uses the [[https://www.facebook.com/greendelabean/ Green de la Bean]] meme will most definitely have one of these, usually accompanied with SensoryAbuse to boot. Thankfully, the animation used (featuring a cartoon bean mascot) is a deliberate NightmareRetardant, plus later appearances have become more telegraphed.
446** A Creepypasta-esque version of this started after the channel returned from its "pause" in early 2017. These rips usually began with an image of a "Egghead", a black boy wearing shorts and a life vest on a white background. The video zooms onto his face, and without warning, shifts to an edited, red-tinted photo of a celebrity with glowing white eyes while playing a loud noise, followed alarm sounds. The image fades away as the rip shifts to a completely unrelated video. [[NothingIsScarier Fans aren't sure what this even is]], and ultimately these rips ended, although there were two CallBacks to them in early 2019.
447* KayfabeMusic:
448** To a certain extent, since no credit is given on rips and the channel is dolled up to look like it's just some guy archiving GameMusic, with no mention of the large amount of people working behind the scenes to make remixes of said music. Downplayed due to the channel description's disclaimer and the request to "please read the channel description" on every video, though it still doesn't ''quite'' mention that it's a BaitAndSwitch channel. Averted on the Bandcamp, where all rips are credited to the correct artist.
449** Also an oddly InUniverse example: The HostileShowTakeover-filled Season 2 did not touch the "bait" part of the BaitAndSwitch, with only the "please read the channel description" part (which was notably not on the real [=GilvaSunner=]'s channel) changing for each host. Haltmann eventually {{invoked}} the kayfabe for Season 3 onwards by setting up the AI to act like the original [=SiIvaGunner=].
450* KazoosMeanSilliness: A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9_OWNpugzI high-quality "Vocal Mix"]] of "One-Winged Angel" from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' performed entirely on kazoos.
451* KidAppealCharacter: Or rather "kid-appeal meme", the ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2'' rips with the "Series/NickArcade Prototype" label all use jokes that would be relevant to Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}'s TargetAudience of children, such as [[Memes/LooneyTunes Big Chungus]], ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', or [[spoiler:Creator/ChuckECheese]].
452* KnightTemplar: Mr. Rental is one as of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sI3xt7QbSSI this rip]], wanting to ban ''all'' mashups from the channel, regardless of quality.
453* LateArrivalSpoiler:
454** With how popular the remixes have become, the BaitAndSwitch intent is expected rather than not (although the channel still {{troll}}s listeners with how it surprises them).
455* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: On July 7th, "A Grand New Era ~Finale~" was uploaded and quickly deleted in favor of an ARG that eventually resulted in the video being reuploaded for good. The only difference between [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqCQWMFdxtQ the leaked release (reuploaded on another channel)]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eionH4HdkW8 the current release]] is an additional scene before the merging sequence:
456-->'''Voice:''' Oh, and Chad? If you happen to be epileptic, you might want to turn away. The restoration process could get a little messy on the eyes. Unless of course, you happen to have seen this process before. But you certainly couldn't have, right? Let us begin.
457* LeaveTheCameraRunning: During the week between the [=Koriball2=] and [=Koriball2.5=] streams, the stream chat was fully functional (despite the stream being offline), leading to this effect. The chat inevitably devolved to a couple people [[SeinfeldianConversation having irrelevant conversations]].
458* LeftHanging: The lore thread featuring Mr. Rental is ultimately never finished. However, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVS5wsXyOxs Behind the Scenes - Mr Rental: The Video Game]], gives us some information on how the series was supposed to end.
459* {{Leitmotif}}: In almost all of the songs for the fictional game ''Tate's Journey'', Norwegian singer Bambee's song ''Bumblebee'' is implemented one way or another.
460* LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand: Done with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=my82UjjENcE "The Grand Finale"]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=158yOFYY1do the "beta mix"]] of ''The Rescue of Dino and Hoppy'', and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZwdgbteagw "Final Boss"]], marking the transition into the real songs. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFyDJsjJkvM "Destruction of the Sammer Kingdom"]] rip also does this to ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''[='=]s theme.
461* LetsPlay: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7csytJXT2s Let's Play - ]][[NonIndicativeName Super Mario RPG]]" is presented as one of ''7 Grand Dad''. [[spoiler:At first, the player speaks fondly of the game, but after getting a GameOver on the first level, he RageQuits, storms off to vent his frustration, and comes back to calmly announce that there will be no more episodes.]]
462* LivingStatue: This is [=SiIvagunner=]'s AuthorAvatar, a digitally-modified bust of Antinous.
463* LongList: Rips of ''Mario Forever'' usually simply list the console origin as "PC". For the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOMfqWKEJ0Y title screen rip]], it is apparently on "PC, Windows, Flash, Computer, [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Personal Computer]], Android, Mobile Phone, Samsung Galaxy, Microsoft Windows 10, Windows 2000, Desktop, Linux Mint PC, Mac, [=HTML5=], Mario Platform, Super Windows 8.1, Windows Microsoft 7, Chrome OS, Mobile Android Kitkat, Macintosh Apple Computer, Windows Virtual Box [=VMWare=], Wii U Nintendo Browzer Orygynal, Nintendololo On Afficial 3DS, Linux Super, Ubuntu, Spongebob Stupid in Maryo Simulator (Portable Device)".
464* LongSongShortScene: The rip of ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''[='=]s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VI3eWXsWbNI Power of "NEO"]] pokes fun at the fact that this song plays for a ZeroEffortBoss.
465** A similar thing is done for "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUToXCFd0KM A Critical Battle]]" from ''VideoGame/TheAngryVideoGameNerdIIAssimilation'', poking fun at the shortness of the mid-boss battles.
466* LuckySeven: As a reference to the "Grand Dad" bootleg game's full title, "Super Mario 7" / "7 Grand Dad", the number seven (as well as seven thousand, AKA [[{{Pun}} seven grand]]) serves as an ArcNumber of [=SiIvaGunner=] and his works.
467* MaliciousMisnaming: Chad Warden refers to the Voice Inside Your Head as the "Gay Mexican-Ass in My Ass" on multiple occasions.
468* TheManBehindTheMan:
469** As revealed in ''[[GameMod Pokémon Grand Dad Edition]]'', [[spoiler:The Voice Inside Your Head was only a conduit for something much more sinister.]]
470** The whole channel is manned by an internet user named Chaze the Chat, who identified himself in one of the last videos [=SiIvaGunner=] posted.
471* MassiveMultiplayerCrossover: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cn9ewsm8pg "Agent Yoru o Yuku"]] April Fools 2017 rip, which brings together a massive AllStarCast to perform a huge meme compilation to the tune of "Kumikyoku Nico Nico Douga", including the cast of {{WebAnimation/TOME}} (with [=LittleKuriboh=] doing a [[WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries YGOTAS bit]]), Creator/KiraBuckland, [[Anime/LoveLiveSunshine Corina Boettger]], and [[Anime/YuGiOhArcV Matt Shipman]], with mixing and mastering by Music/TheLivingTombstone, among others.
472* MechaMooks: In the ''Christmas Comeback Crisis'', Haltmann augments his legions of Patrol-Bots and Splicers with the Harlequin Force Stringbots, robotic versions of Green de la Bean designed for riot control. Though also equipped with PowerPincers and RocketBoots, their main offensive weaponry is blasting "U Guessed It" and "No Words" at extremely high volumes.
473* MergedReality: The Voice Inside Your Head offers Chad Warden the opportunity to create a world where all of [=SiIvaGunner=]'s traditions before and during the reboot co-exist, with the exception of the divisive Snow Halation. [[spoiler:Chad ultimately accepts this, since all he wants is the real [=SiIva=] back, but manages to get Snow Halation back anyway.]]
474* MoodWhiplash:
475** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvxmQQdSCow This "rip"]] of the Platform/NintendoGameCube startup fanfare [[NightmareFuel begins with]] [[spoiler:a particularly creepy song from ''VideoGame/TheBindingOfIsaac'', combined with [[Film/Carrie1976 "THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOU!"]] and [[WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}} Vinny]] {{laughing|Mad}}]]... then abruptly changes to the rubber ducky version of the actual song at the very end.
476** The infamous [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrydNhvGy0w Ai no Uta rip]] from ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl''. A cute and peaceful ''VideoGame/{{Pikmin}}'' song [[spoiler:that suddenly gets mixed with the loud and {{Wangst}}y [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gd9OhYroLN0 Crawling]] from ''Music/LinkinPark'']].
477** Done in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eionH4HdkW8 "final" reboot rip]], where the singer of the DK Rap tells fans of Snow Halation to shoot themselves in the middle of the song.
478* MythologyGag:
479** [=SiIvaGunner=], obviously referencing the original [=SilvaGunner=] channel.
480** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxsM_sa9VHM Snowmobile Accident]] may initially seem out of place unless you look at the real [=GilvaSunner's=] channel, where he has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjfLyAwea3c an almost identical video,]] which instead uses the Slider theme from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy2''.
481** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zcHtIki1nA Gerudo Valley]] from ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosForNintendo3DSAndWiiU'' shows Diddy Kong for less than a second before switching to Link, a reference to [=GilvaSunner's=] video of the original song.
482** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOFp2SAXONc Beta Mix]] of "A Secret Course" from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine'' had a screenshot of the game's title screen fade in from white at the beginning of the video, much like most of the real [=GilvaSunner=]'s music uploads for the same game.
483** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DR84FKZlVo Director's Cut]] of ''The Flintstones: The Rescue of Dino and Hoppy''[='s=] title theme is actually just ([[SurprisinglyCreepyMoment at least, mostly]]) the audio of the opening scene of "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS4E12MargeVsTheMonorail Marge vs. the Monorail]]" from ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'', where Homer reenacts the opening of ''The Flintstones'', playing with the premise of the channel's reboot.
484** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDjUGhaP3U0 Beta Mix]] of Bowser's Theme, despite being part of the reboot, uses the Flinstones theme song, because the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTtA33u7yw0&index=14&list=PLL0CQjrcN8D2GKbqapABe1mpDWysh9MiW pre-reboot upload]] of Bowser's Theme used the Simpsons theme song.
485** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TU9kadmvj9w The "Map" rip]] from ''[[Franchise/LooneyTunes Daffy Duck: Fowl Play]]'' features Daffy exclaiming, "Not 'GO MY WAY!!', you [=SoundClown=]!"
486** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuFYGf_yKY8 announcement of the channel ending]] was done in the style of a "the nutshack theme but X" video, which became [[MemeticMutation extremely widespread on YouTube]] after ''The Nutshack'' become popular on the channel.
487** While it's [[WeirdnessCensor in-character]] for [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb Linda]], the fact that she only hears video game music instead of rips during the Phineas and Ferb Takeover mirrors the {{Kayfabe}} [=SiIvaGunner=] (the character) used to pull in the comments.
488* NeverTrustATitle: Waluigi doesn't actually own the tacostand in the ''Waluigi's Tacostand'' rip. The stand is instead owned by El Bean.
489* NiceJobBreakingItHero: The cause of the ContinuityReboot? [[spoiler:Chad Warden telling [=SiIva=] fans not to dislike-bomb Snow Halation rips, leading them into a discourse.]]
490** Also the reason the voice returns for the Christmas Finale? [[spoiler:The user base kept him alive by thinking about him, as that is how figments stay alive.]]
491* NonIndicativeName: Sometimes the rips don't play the song suggested in their titles at all, not even at the beginning in order to kickstart the BaitAndSwitch. For example, in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbeU63L_QTM Bob-omb Battlefield (Extended Mix) - Super Mario 64]]", while the song ''does'' sound like it could come from ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'', at no point does it actually resemble "Bob-omb Battlefield" at all.
492* OminousVisualGlitch: The thumbnail for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN7ptE55rV4 this video]] counts.
493* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: The Voice Inside Your Head is only known as such, since he believes [[NoNeedForNames names are not important]]. He only provides the nickname to Chad Warden for sake of being addressed by someone.
494* OnlyMostlyDead: [[spoiler:What happened to The Voice after being destroyed by Chad at the end of the reboot arc. While he ''died'', the idea of him was preserved through Wood Man, thus enabling him to return in the future.]]
495* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
496** After the infamous "Harlequin Baby Incident"[[labelnote:*]]A video of the puzzle room music from ''VideoGame/KirbyPlanetRobobot'' had been uploaded, and contained a tasteless pastiche of the continue and GameOver screens for a Russian bootleg ''WesternAnimation/FelixTheCat'' game for the Platform/SegaGenesis; instead of a gory picture of Felix, however, the viewers were linked to a shock video of a [[{{Squick}} harlequin baby]] screaming.[[/labelnote]], [=SiIva=] actually broke character in order to properly apologize to their fans, explain that the now-deleted video was uploaded by one now-fired contributor without permission from the rest of the group, and that tasteless shock humor like that is not supposed to be part of the channel's directive.
497** The Season 1 ending not only features the first contributor (Chaze the Chat) showing his face for the first time on the channel, but also has a number of subtler clues (for one, the title rather directly says the channel is ending -- something none of the earlier {{Series Fauxnale}}s did -- and the description is simply a reiteration of [=SiIva=]'s CatchPhrase). This was presumably necessary after the repeated fake-outs, as it was intended to be the end of the channel at the time.
498* OrwellianRetcon:
499** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ai1j-z0TghQ P-R-O-G-R-A-M]] rip was originally titled "P-R-O-G-R-A-M (OST Version)", as there was another rip of the song that already had the name that functioned as the channel's trailer. After the newer rip became the channel trailer out of fan demand, the "OST Version" subtitle was removed from the video, and the original "P-R-O-G-R-A-M" rip was labelled the "Alternate Mix".
500** Volume 6.66 of the "Highest Quality Video Game Rips" album series was updated to add four new tracks[[note]]"Money Waterfalls" by digboy, "Psytales - The Gangnam Moon" by RosalinaSama, "KK Gotye" by digboy, and "Pursuit ~ Planet Wisp" by Wendyfag[[/note]] and rename a number of others.[[note]]"Metroids at an Exhibition" was originally titled "Tourian Mussorgsky", "I'm Proud To Be An American - Cover by Hank Hill (FNAF Circus Mix)" was originally titled "(ASMR) Hank Hill whispers softly into your ear while recording his country album", "Don't Hug Me I'm Stylish: Notebook Brainwashes The Kids Into Triple-Q's Creepy Gangnam Cult (FNAF Music Box Mix)" was originally titled "What's Your Favorite Style?", "ninelie" was originally titled "ninelie <8bitv>", "Pachelbel's Arm Cannon in D" was originally titled "Metroid Ending, as composed by Pachelbel", "Wario Ruins The Norfair Music From NES Metroid" was originally titled "TOO BAD, METROID TIME!", "Funky Kong's Spooky Ectoplasm Blaster Store" was originally titled "Danny Funkton", "Super Kirby Bros.: Melee in Dreamland" was originally titled "Kirby sucks in this game so it isn't even worth playing", "Soulja Boy cranks so hard he literally goes back in time" was originally titled "Cranko Trigger", "[=aLIEz=]" was originally titled "[=aLIEz=] <g5v>", "The Mad Convoy Race out of Pepsi City" was originally titled "Pepsi Man Adventure 2", and "ninelie (Instrumental)" was originally titled "ninelie <8bitv> (Instrumental)". Many of these renamed songs were done by ingx24, with the exception of the "ninelie" tracks, which was made by Stella ♥, and the Soulja Boy/Chrono Trigger track, which was made by Avolience.[[/note]] In addition, three early tracks were moved to later in the album[[note]]"A Gay Old Time with Kzinssie" was #13, "DAD DAD DAD【バインソース X あぅ あぅ あぅ】" was #25, and "Memory of cocoa butter kisses" was #27.[[/note]], and "Quest to the Tower of Emblems and Adventures and Time Keys" corrected the "[=QTQTQk=]" mispelling of QTQTQ's name.%%Apparently, according to the update announcement trailer, one of the tracks was glitched before the update. Which track was it, and how was it glitched?
501** On October 25, 2023, all rips from ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' games that were used as an excuse to rip songs from the original comic were changed to be rips of ''Homestuck'' directly, and were moved to a new playlist to accommodate them. A [=YouTube=] community post lampshaded the change by showing the arm of John Egbert near [=SiIvaGunner=]'s laptop, referencing [[spoiler:his retcon powers near the end of the comic]].
502* OutOfCharacterMoment: As acknowledged by its description, ''Stagg Street Arrangements'' strays from the channel's video game-focused content. It's a cover album where the songs are done InTheStyleOf of certain games, such as Namco's arcade chip and Pokémon soundfonts. The final track, "Everyday Goodbyes", is a live cover, but it incorporates "The Flintstones" and "Snow halation" into its instrumental.
503* OutOfFocus: During the first King For a Day tournament, Ajit Pai only got one rip to his name, then got snapped by Thanos and didn't come back until the next tournament. In the second tournament Eminem fares only a little better, having a grand total of five rips and three dual mixes which would have been amazing in the original tourney but is downright pathetic compared to the massive increase in rips per character.
504* OverlyLongGag:
505** One common edit is to loop the song's intro for the entire video. Fans of it have referred to this as "musical blue balls".
506** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqIOXMu2QrY Nightmare]]" from ''VideoGame/YumeNikki'' is essentially a 16-minute, audio-only walkthrough of how to trigger the infamous "Uboa" event (where the track plays in-game). [[spoiler:At the end, when the event is finally triggered, the track is pitch-shifted to "GO MY WAY!!". To add further insult to injury, speeding up the ending reveals a sound clip of WebVideo/FilthyFrank saying, "You just got pranked, bro! Ha ha!"]]
507** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zvhi_z35-l4 Level 1 (Desert Bus)]]'' from ''VideoGame/PennAndTellersSmokeAndMirrors'' contains ''the entire 8 hours'', while ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2qsBTGwu9M Beloved Tomboyish Girl (Extended Mix)]]'' from ''VideoGame/TouhouKoumakyouTheEmbodimentOfScarletDevil'' features a paulstretch that lasts '''''[[InJoke 9:09:09]]'''''. [[spoiler:In both videos, ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'' theme plays at the 7 hour mark.]]
508** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7LGgB5hBMQ The extended]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIH_OZ13M6o version]] of "Cave Dungeon" from ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'', when combined are '''over 12 hours''' long. [[spoiler:They are extremely slowed down versions of the song building up speed for 12 hours until it returns to the normal speed.]]
509** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-s_LnGYtzw BIG (Extended Mix)]]" from ''VideoGame/PaRappaTheRapper 2'' goes through its first two verses entirely unedited; the joke doesn't kick in until the third.
510** The rip of the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhEAazYMdwM pause menu jingle]] from ''VideoGame/WarioWorld'' is '''50 minutes''' long, featuring [[spoiler:well over a hundred different jokes, memes, and references. A number of brave commenters took it upon themselves to try to document every joke in the video, and still are not sure whether they have succeeded]].
511** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orF1BhxulxM Mega Man 3's Stage Select rip]] takes it up a step with a 1 HOUR AND 50 MINUTE MIX.
512* OverlyPrepreparedGag: On September 15th, 2016 (the 1st anniversary of ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''[='=]s release), Silva uploaded nothing but ''VideoGame/{{Mother}}''-related rips. This went on for almost twenty-four hours, seemingly culminating with an actual ''Undertale'' "Megalovania" rip that's intentionally underwhelming. But then, thirty minutes later, along comes the simultaneous release of '''39''' ''Undertale''-related rips -- the single biggest release in the channel's history!
513* PaintingTheMedium:
514** "anouncement.wmv", a video imitating the style of early [=YouTube=], has a broken thumbnail.
515** "abc_123_a - Undertale", which prominently features [[spoiler:the Gaster Followers]], is intentionally unlisted and can only be found by directly inputting its URL, tying in with how [[spoiler:the Gaster Followers can only be encountered in ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' by modifying the game's hidden Fun Values]].
516** "The Voice" behind the reboot occasionally types in an ominous font when he takes control, as seen in [[https://twitter.com/GiIvaSunner/status/747976678811537408 these]] [[https://twitter.com/GiIvaSunner/status/747976703239127040 tweets]].
517* ParodyAssistance:
518** [=SiIva=] and WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}} Joel (whose streams inspired the Grand Dad jokes that the channel was first founded on) helped with the script for the fan video [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cugPzge-tWA "Hotel GiIvaSunner"]]. Joel additionally did voice work for the video.
519** Creator/ChrisNiosi helped in the creation of the rip of "Agent Yoru o Yuku", which is a [=SiIvaGunner=]-themed parody of his own "Nico Nico Douga -Kirbomix~".
520** Music/TheLivingTombstone submitted a rip parodying his song about the first ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys1'' game.
521** [=JohnnyUtah=], creator of the ''WebAnimation/{{Tankmen}}'' series and Sergeant John's voice actor, recorded a new set of [[HaveANiceDeath death screen insults]] for the mod of the "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_6rt9Tj5aI Ugh]]" rip.
522** Key After Key, composer of the original "OOF-Y GROOVES," is also the composer of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AF1mC1ixQdk OOF-Y GROOVES (Playtest 2 Version) - PHIGHTING!]]".
523** Nicopatty, creator of and composer for ''VideoGame/NicosNextbots'', is also the composer of the rip "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MN_PZD6F8L4 delta lobby (ost version)]]," along with both rips from the ''Platform/{{Roblox}}'' event that use the ''NN'' OST as the joke.
524* {{Pastiche}}: The video announcing his AprilFoolsDay album, ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqza7KD5jYc anouncement.wmv]]'', imitates the style of countless [[StylisticSuck poorly-made]] tutorial Platform/YouTube videos from the mid-to-late 2000s (including a mashup of several once-popular songs from the era to boot, such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WPCLda_erI Dreamscape]] by 0009 Sound System and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04F4xlWSFh0 Bodies]] by Drowning Pool.)
525* ThePowerOfLove: [[spoiler:What "Snow Halation" ultimately represents to [=SiIva=] and the fans who love it, according to Chad Warden. He also ends the war between him and the Voice Inside Your Head by using the ultimate form of [=YouTube=] love: the MF Like Button. This ultimately kills both the Voice and Chad.]]
526[[/folder]]
527
528[[folder:R-Z]]
529* ReadTheFreakingManual: For rips, the description will say "Please read [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9ecwl3FTG66jIKA9JRDtmg/about the channel description]]" at the bottom.
530* RealTrailerFakeMovie: Crosses over with FictionalVideoGame in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTBnJ3wqtZ0 this video]], a pastiche of the reveal trailer for ''VideoGame/SonicMania'' depicting a similarly updated version of ''7 Grand Dad''. It's lampshaded in the fine print at the very end, which remarks that it "won't come out, [[ShrugOfGod probably]]." [[https://twitter.com/NathanMM102/status/791048827935404032 Then it was announced]] [[SubvertedTrope to be real,]] but [[DoubleSubversion was later cancelled.]]
531* RedHerring: There's [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLL0CQjrcN8D1Lh_vGBWNyKkg_LGsV6Jvh a playlist]] for ''[[VideoGame/HalfLife Half-Life 3]]'' on the channel. All [[Memes/ValveSoftware three]] of its videos are private.
532* ReferenceOverdosed: Trying to list all of the different references, musical or otherwise, that are put into his videos would take up most of the page. Sometimes even a single video will qualify. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSR9lupZVNo This "high quality rip"]] of the [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf battle theme]] in particular is loaded with them. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhEAazYMdwM Pause Screen]] from ''VideoGame/WarioWorld'' goes a million steps further by being ''50 minutes'' worth of Wario nyah-nyah-ing to the melody of ''hundreds'' of different songs.
533* RelaxOVision: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6n6lKgocgrQ "Bean Bean Pork Bean - MOTHER 3"]] has the Green de la Bean RunningGag, but here it gets only as far as a bass-boosted "BITCH U" before quickly cutting to soothing nature footage and music in place of the usual SensoryAbuse. The meme text still appears, but slowly and in a cursive font.
534* {{Retraux}}: As a channel covering music InTheStyleOf video game soundtracks, this is basically necessary to mimick the styles of retro sound chips. Though note that these ''are'' InTheStyleOf, and not just {{Pastiche}}s of retro game music; since it is usually possible to rip audio assets out of retro games, the channel does this and then reconstructs them in a form editable with modern software.
535* TheReveal: In ''[[GameMod Pokémon Grand Dad Edition]]'' (which part of the reboot finale ARG), the Voice Inside Your Head confesses upon defeat that despite his previous claims, he doesn't really care about what [=YouTube=] commenters think, and that he was just a pawn of something much worse.
536-->'''Voice:'''\
537A vitriolic... thing. It wreaks its revenge upon the world.\
538Or so I think. Truthfully, I don't know what drives it.\
539But it is determined.\
540Vile and incomprehensible beyond words.\
541It channels an ancient evil within it. Can be held accountable for all that is wrong with... everything, really.
542* ReverseCerebusSyndrome: A {{Downplayed}} example, since the channel was always focused on light-hearted, zany humor and rips in the modern day are the same format as those from the past, but some rips from Season 1 could be ''way'' edgier or straight-up terrifying than anything present now, with particularly infamous (and, thankfully, removed) examples being the Harlequin Baby Incident, the 9/11 jokes on the event's anniversary, Green de La Bean, and even possible child abuse audio in "Theme Song - Caillou". On a lesser note, there was also much greater focus on "lore" and such secretly hidden inside rips, which may be a SurprisinglyCreepyMoment for those just expecting music. While the more modern incarnation of the channel Season 2 and onwards can still occasionally have less lighthearted content (i.e., some of the events in the ;;Christmas Comeback Crisis'', Egghead, farting D. Va, etc.), it definitely isn't as dark or edgy as the earlier incarnation, and "lore" is (generally) kept to its own videos and not randomly inserted inside other rips.
543* RippleEffectProofMemory: [[spoiler:Chad Warden is the only person unaffected by the High Quality Reboot, which throws a wrench in The Voice Inside Your Head's plans.]]
544* RockTrio: As implied by the channel banner, we had [[VideoGame/TheFlintstonesTheRescueOfDinoAndHoppy Grand Dad]], [[Franchise/LoveLive Nozomi Tojo]], and [[TheImmodestOrgasm Loud Nigra]]. However, in September 2016, Loud Nigra was replaced by [[WesternAnimation/TheNutshack Tito Dick]], forming a new trio. However, as of January 2021, Tito has been removed with no replacement.
545* RousingSpeech: [[spoiler:Chad Warden]], of all people, delivers one in the [[spoiler:[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B8ADYhE_ms "true ending"]] of the reboot]]:
546-->[[spoiler:'''Chad:''']] While I can't stop hate, I can sure as hell [[ThePowerOfLove encourage love.]]
547* RunningGag: [[RunningGag/SiIvaGunner See here for a list of them]].
548* RunningGagged:
549** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywwcZn5bp1Q This video]] appears to do this to "Snow halation", where "HALATION.SYS" causes a problem, forcing the channel to be shut down and rebooted in High Quality mode.
550** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFyDJsjJkvM "Destruction of the Sammer Kingdom"]] sees the apparent end of ''The Simpsons'', a staple of the High Quality Reboot.
551** The Green de la Bean meme was scrubbed from the channel after one of them received a takedown for Community Guideline Violations.
552** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-AS-hFPb80 "Pork Bean Outta Gas - MOTHER 3"]] has [[VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} D.Va]] failing to fart as she does in the other rips she appears in, giving viewers hope that her dreaded RunningGag was finally coming to an end... only for her to appear in several other rips afterward, farting as much as ever.
553** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnIOlZvdpkI "YANKIN' FOREVER"]]'' has [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Knuckles]] [[SealedEvilInACan seal Lady inside the Master Emerald]], bringing the Pussy Yankover to an end.
554* RussianReversal: The description of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUT0csgdT50 Type A - Tetris]] asks the viewer to "Please be read by the channel description."
555* ScreamerPrank: While memes such as "Egghead" and "Green de la Bean" resemble this with their {{Jump Scare}}s, the closest this channel has come to resembling a classic screamer would be [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTtVMJZ3kh0 "Circus (she said she wanna dance but she dont know how to mix)"]], which ends with [[spoiler:an ExtremeCloseUp of a [[FeatheredFiend shoebill's]] [[NightmareFace face]] in {{Chiaroscuro}}, accompanied by [[SensoryAbuse booming static]]]]. One of the early Bean rips deleted from the channel, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGM-DX2OUzA "Coffee Break - Mother 3"]], also qualifies by being a parody of the Advertising/KFee ads.
556* SeductionLyric: The song "But Not You" from the "King For Another Day" Tournament is a {{Parody}} with intentionally awful, lecherous lyrics, sung from the point of view of an incompetent, sleazy CasanovaWannabe; ''So come on baby please / Let me give you a squeeze.'' "The Ballads of Naxx and Doge", the video in which the song debuted, also opens with Naxx singing a different song in similar style.
557* SelfDeprecation:
558** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TU9kadmvj9w This rip]] of "[[Franchise/LooneyTunes Daffy Duck: Fowl Play]]"'s Map music. Basically, it's the reboot a la ''WesternAnimation/DuckAmuck''.
559** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Va3Z3LG9D0M "Time for the Climax!"]] from ''VideoGame/Bayonetta2'' has the rip cut short with an issued apology for being a "low quality rip." Likely because it makes an ''incredibly'' obvious joke, [[spoiler:that being Loud Nigra.]]
560* SeriesFauxnale:
561** On March 30th, right after [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNnqzjb6sT0 the announcement]] of his first album, [=SiIva=] uploaded [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wu2EJUWBpjE a rip]] of [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} "Last Goodbye"]], then proceeded to not upload anything for the entire rest of the day. Many assumed it was the end of the channel (as the video's title and production values implied); however, he made a grand comeback on AprilFoolsDay.
562** Then his channel got taken down the next week, causing many to fear that [=SiIva=] was gone for good...until he announced on Twitter that he would be coming back.
563** History repeated itself on May 30th, when [=SiIva=] revealed another GreatestHitsAlbum and proceeded to reupload "Last Goodbye", upload a new rip of "Good Night" (combined with "Goodbye to a World", which includes lyrics about saying goodbye)... then not uploading anything for several days. However, on June 7th, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aedxO20HOsw he released a video]] announcing the release of "The All New... [=SiIvaGunner=]... [[spoiler:[[Creator/{{Konami}} PACHINKO]] [[TakeThat MACHINE]]]]!" He then went back to uploading videos.
564** Christmas 2022 saw the uploads of numerous "Game Over" and "Ending" tracks, followed by a fusion collab for Music/PorterRobinson's "Goodbye to a World". A day later, a video called "My Last Message" was uploaded, with a "credits" list a short bit after. People were confused over whether this was an event, an album announcement, or the channel shutting down again. The channel returned on February 1st, 2023.
565* SensoryAbuse:
566** Occasionally used, particularly whenever [[Memes/SonicTheHedgehog Sanic]] turns up.
567** Ironically, rips featuring Loud Nigra only ''sometimes'' fit this trope.
568** In a less traditional sense, the [=Koriball2=] stream fit the bill - it was composed of several songs (some altered, some not) playing over each other, with no attempt to make them harmonize. Predictably, [[https://soundcloud.com/djfruitsnackz/under-pac the results]][[note]]The link is only a fragment of the whole stream.[[/note]] sound terrible.
569** Rips featuring the "You Just Got Beaned" meme fit this trope, sometimes in more ways than one.
570* ShoutOut: [[ShoutOut/SiIvaGunner There are enough references and jokes that go beyond the actual music changes that it gets its own page!]]
571* SiameseTwinSongs:
572** The Flintstones theme and "Snow Halation" are often featured back-to-back within the same rip.
573** "[[VideoGame/KirbyPlanetRobobot Rhythm Code]]" (better known as "Puzzle Room") and the "Continue?" music from the Felix The Cat bootleg. When they both appear in a rip, they're treated as a single reference/song rather than two. {{Downplayed}}, as the former usually appears on its own. Sometimes "Russkij Pusskij" (linked from "ДА" in the infamous deleted video) is mashed up with either or both.
574** The Platform/{{Wii}} Shop Channel's theme tends to be associated with [[Music/{{Drake}} "Hotline Bling"]].
575** "Among Us Trap Remix" and "[=AirPod=] Shotty" are often combined, both being rather short ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' meme songs.
576* SnicketWarningLabel: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OG_e8ve0l_w "One-Winged Angel (Beta Mix) - Final Fantasy VII"]] loops the track's opening chords for 17 seconds, then has [=BonziBuddy=]'s SyntheticVoiceActor say, "I'm just kidding. This isn't a blue-balls rip. However, you're going to wish it was." The track then continues, and [=BonziBuddy=] says "I warned you" just before the pitch-shifted vocals of Music/{{Rednex}}'s "Cotton Eye Joe" cut in.
577* SofterAndSlowerCover: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60mdvttLHvU "Candy's Music Store - Donkey Kong 64"]] is a very laid-back arrangement of "Yakety Sax".
578* StealthPun:
579** He uploaded ''seven Grand'' Metropolis rips, and only the seventh was edited.
580** Several other rips also make ''auditory'' puns, usually due to the titles' liberal use of ExactWords. For example, the rip of [[VideoGame/{{Shantae}} "We Love Burning Town"]] features the sounds of a literal burning town, and the rip of [[VideoGame/PaperMarioColorSplash "Prism City"]] has [[spoiler:the sound of paper being ripped.]]
581** On certain holidays (and other specific dates), the channel uploads a bunch of songs that pertain to the holiday in question, often making a pun on the holiday's name. For example, on April 20th (also known as [[FourTwentyBlazeIt "4/20"]]) the channel uploaded a bunch of "rips" that included Music/SnoopDogg's infamous [[MemeticMutation "smoke weed everyday"]] song (among other songs about marijuana). On May 8th, Mother's Day, "rips" of ''VideoGame/{{Mother}}'' music were uploaded.
582** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k2eMYz755U The "Positive Mix"]] of [[VideoGame/Gimmick1992 "Aporia"]] [[spoiler:is a rendition of both "Roundabout" and "Heart of the Sunrise", both songs by '''Music/{{Yes}}'''.]]
583** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9shd2tujUmo "Nocturne of Shadow"]] from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'' starts with said song, but after it finishes, it transitions into a remix of [[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles "Big Arms"]], using ''Ocarina of Time'''s soundfont. Why? Because the "Big Arms" theme was also used as the theme of the Nocturne area in ''VideoGame/SonicChronicles''.
584** The "[[Music/Maroon5 Maroon]] [[VideoGame/PokemonGO GO]]" rips seems like a blatant excuse to make Maroon 5 mashups under a FictionalVideoGame, but it's all clear why when you realize [[OneTwoThreeFourGo 'go' is Japanese for 'five']].
585** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzoeK0QpN7g Dream to Return Land - Kirby Does His Taxes]] is a ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}''-style remix of Music/PorterRobinson and Music/{{Madeon}}'s "Anime/{{Shelter|2016}}"; a ''tax shelter''.
586** [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} "Empty House"]] is a mashup with Music/TupacShakur's "Sucker for Love", which only makes sense when you're aware that "LOVE", within the context of the game, is [[spoiler:an [[FunWithAcronyms acronym]] for "Level Of [=ViolEnce=]"]], and that this track only plays when you [[spoiler:kill Toriel, thereby boosting your LOVE]].
587** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5JzxHjFuY0 "Robo's Theme (PAL Version)"]] from ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'' uses [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E26ACanterlotWeddingPart2 "This Day Aria"]], which is sung by Princess Cadence and [[spoiler:her imposter, Queen Chrysalis]]. It ends on a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadence#Half_cadence half cadence]].
588** On the release day of ''VideoGame/KirbyAndTheForgottenLand'', the channel uploaded a series of Kirby-related rips [[AffectionateParody parodying]] ''[[Music/TheCaretaker Everywhere At The End Of Time]]'', an album series about dementia. One of the primary characteristics of dementia is forgetfulness. Furthermore, the musician behind The Caretaker project is named James Leyland ''Kirby''.
589* StockSitcomGrandFinale: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VcYz6KZtqs Title Theme & Ending - 7 GRAND DAD]] has Grand Dad, Nozomi, and Loud Nigra walking through a ContinuityCavalcade, with the final location being the tower from ''Tengami'', the channel's standard header image. Nozomi and Loud Nigra continue walking, but Grand Dad stops to look up.
590* StylisticSuck:
591** The channel itself is meant to be an [[InvertedTrope inversion]] of this; as Chaze the Chat explained [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuFYGf_yKY8 here]], he was one of many people who had grown sick of [=YouTube=] users churning out bad content while pretending to be Creator/LittleKuriboh, so Chaze eventually decided to create [=GiIvaSunner=] to bring unto [=YouTube=] an impersonator who actually produced ''good'' content for once.
592** "anouncement.wmv" is made in the style of early [=YouTube=] videos, including the usage of Windows Movie Maker and Hypercam; the word "announcement" is even misspelled in the title!
593** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5q9sKOF-ZU The "Alternate Mix"]] of [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} "Megalovania"]] is a terrible-sounding mashup with the ''Film/SpaceJam'' theme... [[spoiler:until 1:04, at which point the music turns into a Waters Of Megalovania mix that sounds much better (transitioning with an audio clip of WebVideo/FilthyFrank saying [[TrollingCreator "You just got pranked, bro!"]], no less).]]
594** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UE6cZTw95MM Mr. Rental]] rip features a crudely-animated recreation of the Flintstones-themed LeadIn for an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''.
595** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67NzF1bL4IQ Menu - Garfield]] is not actually a song, but instead an [[StylisticSuck "animated"]] homage to a similarly-styled animation, WebVideo/{{Garfielf}}.
596** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCc1wFrsJM4 Fountain of Dreams - Super Smash Bros. Melee]] lazily edits a multitude of the channel's running gags over the original song. [[SensoryAbuse At the same time.]]
597* SuddenDownerEnding: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NW8zG-1l6YU "The Grand Finale (Alternate Mix)"]] from ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiBowsersInsideStory'', one of the last rips before the true conclusion of the reboot, ended with all hope of the old gags returning dashed, with the community's actions having supposedly led to Chad Warden's death.
598-->"[=SiIvaGunner=] is dead, and it's all because of you. It's all... because... [[YouBastard of you!]] You fucked up![[SubliminalSeduction pu dekcuf uoY !uoy fo-]]"
599* SuperDeformed: "Smol Nozomi," while uncommonly seen on the channel proper, is almost always seen as the embodiment of [[Anime/LoveLive Snow Halation]] on the channel. "Smol" variants of other idols from the series have also been featured on rare occasions, most often on their respective birthdays.
600* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48sdUzGfjHU "Circus (not the one from deltarune)"]] is a Creator/TobyFox rip, as the video description admits, though not from ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}''--instead, it's "ASGORE" from ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' (or rather, Music/BotanicSage's notorious remix WithLyrics, "ASSGORE").
601* SyntheticVoiceActor: [=SiIva=]'s "voice" is [=VoiceForge=]'s "Wiseguy" option. You may recognize it as WebVideo/{{Garfielf}}, or from certain Platform/GoAnimate videos.
602** The above-mentioned ''Menu - Garfield'' video gives Grand Dad [=VoiceForge's "JerkFace"=] option in order to play the role of Jon to [=SiIva=]'s Garfielf.
603** [[spoiler:The Voice Inside Your Head uses [[http://www.naturalreaders.com/index.html UK Graham of NaturalReaders.com]].]]
604** Mr. Rental's voice is provided by Microsoft Sam. Even in the ''Franchise/LooneyTunes'' rips that give him SpeakingSimlish, it's rendered as Sam's infamous "soi soi soi" sound.
605** The [[spoiler:Gaster Followers]] in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKyuF0HVbtI "abc_123_a - Undertale"]] are portrayed by various voices from FL Studio 11's speech synthesizer, the same ones used by the source track in ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''.
606** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgZH7R1XaWk "The Noble Haltmann: Final Recital (Vocal Mix) - Kirby Planet Robobot"]] has Susie's vocals performed by the Uberduck Music/{{Drake}} AI.
607* TakeThat: [[TakeThat/SiIvaGunner Has enough for its own page.]]
608* TakeThatAudience:
609** After the comments section erupted into a war between people with [[Franchise/{{Kirby}} Dedede]] and [[WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse Peridot]] avatars (eventually ending in favor of the former), a StylisticSuck rip of Dedede's theme from ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'' was uploaded (and subsequently deleted).
610** The entire ''JOEJOE'S BIZZAERE JOJOKE'' album is a jab at people requesting rips from ''[=JoJo=]'', most apparent with the way it was disguised as a proper album.
611** Another jab at the comments section comes from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5uWj6j1Vtg "Overworld"]] from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2'', which consists of goofy text-to-speech voices reading off some of the dumber comments.
612** The overwhelmingly negative audience response to the Pussy Yankover of April 2021 prompted the release of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtPIOwfyJkw "Circus (Fuck You Mix) - Five Nights at Freddy's"]], a mashup of ''Yankin''' and ''[[Music/LemonDemon Cabinet Man]]'' with a title that made it clear yes, the team were aware of the reaction to the takeover, [[TrollingCreator and no, they weren't going to stop]].[[invoked]]
613** The original Green de la Bean rips were taken down from the channel due to community flagging, and this was rather bitterly referenced in a couple of rips uploaded to it over the next few days. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lO6w4kKt91k "Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.) - Super Smash Bros. Brawl"]] was remade with the Bean JumpScare (following two minutes of dead air) replaced with the Continue and GameOver screens from the game, and the image of the Bean on the final screen being grayed out with its catchphrase replaced by the message, "You've lost something precious." The incident was also the subject of the musically unaltered rip of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbHDbR3CwXs "An Ending - Undertale"]] (removed for unrelated reasons), in which [=SiIvaGunner=] sarcastically congratulates viewers for having made the channel "safe":
614--->[=*=] And all you had to do to make it happen...\
615[=*=] ...was murder my son and put me at risk of dying.\
616[=*=] Thanks.\
617[=*=] You friccin moron.
618* TitleDrop: [[https://youtu.be/czlu1jr7e1c?feature=shared "Raft Ride (Live Version) - The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening"]] [[spoiler:is footage of the [=SiivaGunner=] team at [=MAGFest=], playing a rendition of the infamous Raft Ride theme on kazoos. It ends with [[InvokedTrope the group deciding on this name for the video]].]]
619* ToiletHumor: In early fall 2019, there was an infamous serious of rips involving audio (and sometimes video) of a [[VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} D. Va]] cosplayer yelling "Nerf This!", slapping her butt, and farting loudly (the farts are edited in from another video). These rips eventually ended, though there occasional references to them today.
620* TournamentArc: The "King For A Day Tournament" from Summer 2018 was one of these for the channel, where viewers voted between sixteen potential rip sources to see which "fighter" would take over the channel for a day. A second one occurred in Fall 2019, the "King For Another Day Tournament", which doubled the roster from sixteen to thirty-two contestants.
621* {{Troll}}: What [=GiIvaSunner=] was before his pranks gained a fandom of their own.
622* UncommonTime: Songs with uncommon time signatures are occasionally ripped on the channel, such as "[[VideoGame/Mother3 Strong One (Masked Man)]]" which is 29/16.
623* {{Unperson}}: After March 31, in accordance with the delisting/discontinuation of ''Super Mario 3D All-Stars'', ''Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros.'', and ''Super Mario Bros. 35'', [=SiIvagunner=] privated almost all of their Mario-related rips and uploaded new rips with all traces of Mario erased (including his name in the logos) and iconic music distorted beyond recognition. The comments sections of said videos all followed suit, all deliberately acting like he never existed in the first place, though still feeling like something is missing.
624* UntitledTitle: One of the many rips of "Circus" from ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' is titled [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6c1SPT3mdA "Circus ()"]].
625* UrbanLegendOfZelda: [[invoked]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjcuhrntTNw "how to catch grandon in pokemon ruby"]] uses alleged gameplay footage from ''VideoGame/{{Pokemon Ruby|AndSapphire}}'' (but actually from the ''Emerald'' version) in a parody of early [=YouTube=] video walkthroughs claiming to illustrate ways to unlock super-secret Pokémon.
626* ViewersAreGeniuses:
627** Some rips have esoteric {{punchline}}s, which leads to the RunningGag of commenters being a part of the "'I don't get the joke' club". This meme can also be used [[SarcasmMode sarcastically]] for rips with extremely obvious punchlines.
628** The prominence of rips based on ''Series/{{Jeopardy}}'' for the Platform/SegaGenesis might perplex some viewers, given how it seems to be just one unremarkable LicensedGame among many. These rips are actually based on the [[https://siivagunner.fandom.com/wiki/Ending_Theme_-_Super_Mario_World ending screen]] of a bootleg version of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'', which inexplicably plays the ''Jeopardy'' theme; it became memetic when [[WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}} Joel]] replaced "[[TheEnd THE END]]" on the ending screen with the words "YOU FUCKING IDIOT".
629* VillainBall: The Voice Inside Your Head [[spoiler:merges both the original and reboot universes without Snow Halation, then makes Chad his partner in running [=SiIvaGunner=] Enterprises. Unfortunatley for the Voice, Chad uses his new position to bring Snow Halation back himself.]]
630* VillainSong: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-on8Zpps2R0 DK Rap (Anniversary Edition)]], also known as "The Snow Halation Sucks Rap", serves as one for the Voice Inside Your Head, outlining his absolute hatred of Snow Halation and "weeaboo shit" as well as promoting his own memes. While mainly a corruption of the DK Rap, The Voice joins in and drops a few lines himself before the song abruptly shifts into Snow Halation, causing him to angrily cut it short.
631* VisualPun: The cover of ''Greatest Hits Volume 3 & Knigra'' shows [=SiIva=]'s avatar ripping a piece of paper in half.
632* WeCanRuleTogether: After the universes have merged, the Voice Inside Your Head offers Chad Warden to help guide the Grand New Era together as the Grandest Dads, a proposition Chad accepts. [[spoiler:This turns out to be a big mistake on the Voice's part.]]
633* WelcomeToCorneria: [=SiIva's=] usual response to comments that question his (high-quality) rips: "I only upload high quality video game rips."
634* WellIntentionedExtremist: The Voice Inside Your Head. [[spoiler:He booby trapped the High Quality Ripping software [=SiIva=] bought from the Nigra store so that he could initiate the High Quality Reboot. He did this to create a universe devoid of the infighting Chad Warden started concerning the act of dislike bombing "Snow Halation" rips. Later, he offers Chad the return of all the channel's old memes at the cost of the removal of Snow Halation to prevent further discourse, with Chad ultimately accepting, and keeps true to his word, even allowing Chad to join him]].
635** [[spoiler:Although his position as a well-intentioned extremist hasn't changed, it's revealed that the Voice ultimately wasn't the cause of the reboot in the Pokémon [[GameMod ROM hack]], but he's been trying to protect the channel from a [[GreaterScopeVillain bigger threat]] that ''did'' cause the reboot]].
636* WhamEpisode:
637** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywwcZn5bp1Q This "Snow Halation" rip]], which ended up starting the ContinuityReboot and initiating the channel's first plotline. (Also, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VK6KfWVuT3I this rip]] hammers in that [=SiIva=] is NotHimself, since it takes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wXW_ex5Nvs a Flintstones remix]] and replaces it with ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy''.)
638** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN7ptE55rV4 This video]], which finally elaborates on what happened to [=SiIva=] and reveals that ''someone'' was behind it.
639** A stream held on August 14th, 2016 had [=SiIvaGunner=] declare that mashups are no longer considered high quality, accompanied by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sI3xt7QbSSI a video of Mr. Rental going on a rampage against mashups]].
640** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuFYGf_yKY8 "the nutshack theme but the first nutshack is replaced with me ending the channel"]], the video that confirmed that [=SiIvaGunner=] was coming to a close.
641** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SCKrU75WCw Prologue - The SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis]]. A pyramid headed figure [[spoiler:breaks into [=SiIva=]'s home, uploads something onto his computer allowing him to create robots, creates a futuristic city, destroys a ship with Grand Dad, Nigra, and Meta Knight, and captures every meme except Nozomi.]] The person responsible for this? [[spoiler:'''THE VOICE IN YOUR HEAD''']]
642** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJgIPmixTHs One particular audiolog]] reveals that [[spoiler:Haltmann has apparently been working on WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget, who proceeds to attack the voice]].
643** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgkcmtImnbk In the announcement]] for the new album "Inspector Gunner", [[spoiler:the Gadgetini Bot breaks down due to a DMCA, and Haltmann takes the reigns.]]
644** For ''King For Another Day'', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCVf1xfVz_g the prelude to the Grand Finals match.]] [[spoiler:Instead of announcing the final battle between [[VideoGame/JetSetRadio DJ Professor K]] and Mariya, the Crown speaks, revealing its sentience. It announces that the tournament will last for an eternity and, to achieve that end, [[ArtifactDomination hijacks Unregistered Hypercam 2's body]], creating a final boss where the two finalists must team up with all the other defeated contestants to overwhelm Unrestrained Hypercam 2 and the Crown.]]
645* WhamLine:
646** Halfway through [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6j-SpK5SvU This video]], [[spoiler: The Voice Inside Your Head proposes a MergedReality with memes from both before and after the reboot, and the video appears to be the end of the reboot (especially since The Voice admits he's getting tired of the current universe and starting to miss the old one)... until The Voice reveals that this new reality [[RunningGagged will exclude Snow Halation.]]]]
647** "Hahahahaha... I'm back." - [[spoiler:[[HesBack The Voice In Your Head]]]]
648** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJgIPmixTHs You can shut up now.]] [[spoiler:[[WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget I'm always on duty!]]]]"
649** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgkcmtImnbk No matter.]] [[spoiler:The Voice is gone anyway.]]"
650** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTeyuY6ZfwA Game Over - Dat Boi]]" is a [[BlackComedy darkly comedic]] rip sung by by UK-Daniel that references the famous "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCOb6Fykxz0 dat boi!]]" song, but changes the lyrics to be about Dat Boi being brought into the future, but ultimately suffering and dying. But the rip has a very unexpected ending, especially given that it relates to a plotline the channel didn't touch for quite some time.
651--> Frog: (starts croaking) \
652 UK Daniel: Aaaaaah- \
653([[SoundOnlyDeath SPLAT]]) \
654[[spoiler:[[TheBusCameBack The Voice]]: Yuck. If there's one thing I hate more than anime, it's frogs.]]
655** A very minor example, but the beginning of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzJPFfq9KvI Escape from the City ...for City Escape (10th Anniversary ver.)]] [[TheBusCameBack marks the return of a certain someone]] who hasn't been seen on the channel since 2017.
656-->You thought I was fucking dead? You were wrong. Here comes [[spoiler:Rental.]]
657
658* WhoWritesThisCrap: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7CphXr0VZE DK Rap (Reprise)]] ends on this note.
659--> [[spoiler:"What the fuck? I have not seen ''Film/SilenceOfTheLambs''. This joke isn't funny. Just bring back Grand Dad."]]
660* WrapItUp: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVS5wsXyOxs Behind the Scenes - Mr Rental: The Video Game]], posted after the channel's end, serves to tie up a major loose end in the channel's lore.
661* XylophonesForWalkingBones: While "Legendary Ghost" from ''VideoGame/{{Cuphead}}'' is played on xylophone, it accompanies a ghost rather than a skeleton. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VydbXCFSYKU SiIva's high-quality rip]], however, contains the melody of "Spooky Scary Skeletons," making it an example of this trope.
662* YouKeepUsingThatWord: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShrBo0ObYgA Level Theme 1 - The Flintstones: Burgertime in Bedrock]], [=SiIva=] pops in briefly to clear a few misconceptions; mainly, using the word "soundfont" in reference to consoles that use ''synthesizers'', such as the NES, the SEGA Genesis, and the Game Boy.
663* YouTubePoop: Occasionally.
664** Most rips of ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong64'''s "DK Rap" amount to audio-only [=YTPs=], primarily making use of [[ManipulativeEditing sentence-mixing]] to make the rap even sillier. "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2J_g4fJKWIo Unknown from M.E. (OST Version)]] - VideoGame/SonicAdventure" was also one, making Knuckles rap about a myriad of silly things.
665** The first two Chad Warden videos were basically [=YTPs=], with him being sentence-mixed to talk about [[TakeThatAudience SiIvaGunner fans not liking "Snow halation" rips]] instead of the seventh-generation UsefulNotes/ConsoleWars. Though Chad Warden ended up the only character in the lore to use sentence-mixing for his lines.
666** Since 2018, ''WebVideo/SpongeBobEdited''-style [=YTPs=] have been a RunningGag albeit sparsely. Some examples include "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lx-fO-Pbhu4 SiIvaGunner YouTube Trailer]]" and (audio-only) "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwpNqTnFBEk Prologue - Disney's Beauty and the Beast Magical Ballroom]]".
667** Half of the rips of ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDIGames Link: The Faces of Evil]]'' are [=YouTube=] Poop homages that do not feature the game's soundtrack at all.
668* YouTuberApologyParody: The channel has posted several of these, mostly referencing the serious apology video produced by the channel after the "Puzzle Room" incident in 2016:
669** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NknN9H_P_1g "A Sorry Announcement."]] is an edit of the apology video posted by Creator/LoganPaul following his infamous Aokigahara vlog, with a DigitalHeadSwap and redubbed with a certain SyntheticVoiceActor. (This was the follow-up to a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1JD31SG9SU Logan Paul-themed rip of "Puzzle Room"]], whose FauxHorrific conclusion was a Hypernova-filtered still from said vlog.)
670** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atlrq4QtcZs "Apology. (Beta Mix)"]], part of the 2023 AprilFoolsDay event, follows the text-only format of the 2016 apology video but turns it into a BackhandedApology with zero contrition.
671** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OkDGgfAUdk "Bosun Bill (Beta Mix) - Sea of Thieves"]] is a {{pirate}}-themed parody of the "Puzzle Room" apology video, including "Twitter" as a PirateParrot.
