3->"''Man, she’s so pretty and popular... I wish there was some way I could catch her attention. Hmm… Oh! I know! I’ve been meaning to try out my rapping skills for a while now. That’s sure to impress her! I just need to find the right opponent…''"

6''[[https://gamebanana.com/mods/309419 Friday Night Funkin': Maginage Matches]]'' is a ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'' GameMod created by Fran B., where the new Week in question features three opponents, each with their own song.
7
8Back in high school, Boyfriend ([[AdaptationNameChange referred to as Boy]]) is wanting to impress Girlfriend (referred to as Girl), and figures that showing off his new rapping skills would be the way to do it. He figures that his opponent should be Tac, a [[FunnyAnimal Funny]] CartoonCreature who he notes is the nicest guy here. After being asked by Boyfriend and being told about his desperate need to impress his crush, Tac happily accepts. After their rap battle through, Tac's friends - Lucian and Abby - come by. Quite some things ensue.

15!! ''Maginage Matches'' provides examples of:
16* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: In the canon lore of ''Friday Night Funkin[='=]'', Boyfriend and Girlfriend knew each other when they were 19 years old and the former won the latter over his fingerboard tricks. Here, Boyfriend and Girlfriend know each other since at least their high school years.
17* AdaptationNameChange: Boyfriend and Girlfriend are simply called "Boy" and "Girl", the implication being that the "friend" was added on once they started dating.
18* BrickJoke: One of the mod's various {{Couch Gag}}s is "Nick go to sleep -- no shut the fuck up", with Nick being one of the mod's developers. In the mod's credits roll, under Nick's portrait is "No Sked I won't go to sleep".
19* CallForward: Girlfriend and Carol discuss a new game that came out, ''Hating Simulator'', and how Girlfriend recently bought it, alluding to Week 6 of the original game [[TrappedInTVLand taking place inside it]].
20* TheCameo: [[VideoGame/VsAnnie Annie]] has a silent cameo, sitting at the same table as Carol and Girlfriend with her back to the camera.
21* CreatorCameo: All of the mod team serve as other students and the crowd.
22* CartoonCreature: Zigzagged - while Tac, Abby and Lucian are based off actual animals (a mouse, cat, and dog, respectively), the three are heavily stylized and given traits said animals do not have in real life.
23%%* CatsAreMean: Abby pretty much fits the bill.
24* ContentWarning: The mod begins with a quick note that all characters in the mod are minors, to deter Rule34 fanart of them.
25* DisproportionateRetribution: After losing to Boyfriend in "Acrimony", Abby [[spoiler:straight up punches him out of anger.]]
26* FloatingLimbs: Tac has no neck, and his head just floats above his body.
27%%* GlowingEyesOfDoom: [[spoiler:Abby gains these when she TurnsRed partway through her song, "Acrimony".]]
28* JerkassHasAPoint: While Abby's way of [[DisproportionateRetribution avenging Lucian]] is unacceptable, she only did it because Boyfriend was [[UnsportsmanlikeGloating insulting Lucian after he already lost]].
29%%* LimpAndLivid: While Abby has the pose for the first part of her song, [[spoiler:she plays it even more straight once she TurnsRed]].
30* NiceGuy: Tac is mentioned by Boyfriend to be a pretty nice guy, and he's much nicer than Lucian or Abby. His song is also brighter and chiller compared to the Lucian and Abby's.
31%%* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Tac is the nice one, Lucian is the in-between, and Abby is the mean one.
32* OrnamentalWeapon: Lucian carries a bat that he never uses in gameplay.
33* {{Prequel}}: This mod serves as an interpretation of how Boyfriend and Girlfriend met each other, taking place in a high-school.
34%%* RealMenWearPink: Lucian is a pink-colored guy.
35* ShowsDamage: Partway through "Acrimony", [[spoiler:Abby starts to become ''[[TurnsRed really]]'' [[TurnsRed pissed]] and breaks her microphone out of anger]].
