2
3''Kämpfer Abridged'' is a GagDub and AffectionateParody of the ''Literature/{{Kampfer}}'' anime. This AbridgedSeries was created by Creator/MasakoX... and if you thought the original series was crazy before, what with the main character, a guy, transforming into a girl, and a crazy plot involving a harem of [[ActionGirl Action Girls]] and disemboweled stuffed animals, then check this one out. It's a great way to pass the time while you wait for the official release of the translated anime and manga.

6!!This series provides examples of:
7* AllWomenAreLustful: Boy howdy! Even moreso than the original.
8* BiggerOnTheInside: The plushies keep a hot-tub and a flatscreen TV inside Natsuru's trashcan.
9* BlandNameProduct: "Let's play the Packy game!" "Don't you mean 'Pocky'?"
10* BreadEggsMilkSquick: Sakura does this a lot.
11* BrickJoke: Takahata still wants his [[SoundEffectsBleep ***ing]] money.
12* CrossdressingVoices: Both sides of Natsuru are voiced by [=MasakoX=]
13* DoItYourselfThemeTune: Courtesy of Takahata and his spoons.
14-->'''Taka:''' It's the story about a guy who turns into a girl but it's not Manga/{{Ranma|OneHalf}}, it's Kämpfer! It's German! ...And the girls like the guy, but he can't tell, which is funny. And there's a bad guy as usual, but I can't tell, because there's so many girls who want the guy, and the guy-girl too, and that's pretty funny, so let's make it funnier! It's Kämpfer Abridged!
15* {{Homage}}: An extended one to ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''. Most of the nine characters involved in the Kämpferspiracy corresponds in voice and personality to a ''Team Fortress 2'' character class. In order of revelation: Akane is Heavy Weapons Girl, Mikoto is the Scout, Rika is the Engineer, Hitomi the Soldier, Sayaka the Demoman and Ryouko is the Medic. The Spy? The BigBad, of course ([[spoiler:Sakura]]). And, as an ImagineSpot, Natsuru is revealed to be the Pyro (itself a MythologyGag towards the idea that, despite sounding nominally male, the Pyro might be a woman). Only Shizuku doesn't get a class ([[TheUnreveal Sniper]]).
16%%* [[HowDoIShotWeb How Do I Shot Fire?]]
17* IdiotBall: Lampshaded when Shizuku leaves Natsuru alone with the BigBad:
18-->Shizuku: In any case, I won't let you out of my sight.
19-->[[spoiler: Sakura]] Oh, Shizuku! Would you mind of I talk to Natsuru for a second?
20-->Shizuku: Oh, sure! ''[thinking]'' Dammit, why am I so compliant?
21* IncrediblyLamePun:
22-->Shizuku: Since when did cats become experts in dating advice?
23-->Electrocuted Kitty: Well, I ''am'' a pussy.
24* InnerMonologue: Natsuru has lots of it in this series.
25* ILoveYouBecauseICantControlYou: Shizuku admits this in Ep. 10. When asked [[WantingIsBetterThanHaving what she'll do if she DOES get him]], she admits that she has no idea.
26* IThinkYouBrokeHim: "He started to think too much!"
27* LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain: sort of, immediately after "pussy" pun:
28-->Shizuku: Yeah, we're ending this conversation right here.
29* LovableSexManiac: Abridged!Sakura has dropped her canon counterpart's facade like a hot rock and dives headlong into Natsuru's pants. --Err, this trope.
30* MurderIsTheBestSolution: Kämpfer!Akane's trigger-happiness gets a lot of lampshades.
31-->Natsuru: Don't you have any solutions that ''don't'' use guns!?
32-->Akane: Uh... *fires off another volley into the ceiling*
33* ObliviousToLove: Natsuru's memetic density is a frequent source of humor.
34-->'''Akane''': I wonder if it's obvious to him that I have a total crush on him and that I want him all up inside me and to ride me like a wild rodeo cowboy?
35-->'''Natsuru''': *vacant expression* *sound of wind blowing*
36-->'''Akane''': Nah, I think I'm safe.
37* [[PsychicNosebleed Stupidity Brain Hemorrhage]]: When asked why he's so enamored with [[DudeShesALesbian Sakura]] and not his [[UnwantedHarem other love-interests]], Natsuru ''bleeds from the ears'' before changing the subject.
38* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Strangled Dog tends to get very long-winded when talking about how miserable he is.
39* [[StrawmanHasAPoint Straw Bitch Has A Point]]: Invoked and PlayedForLaughs. Sakura, [[spoiler: apparently]] thinking [[ActuallyIAmHim the two Natsurus]] are different people, gives Kämpfer!Natsuru a resounding [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech "Reasons The Male Natsuru Sucks" Speech]]. Everything she says is true, some of it even ''generous''.
40* StylisticSuck: Taka's intro to the series, which consists of him tapping empty glasses with spoons while singing a song which he most likely made up off the top of his head.
41* TookALevelInJerkass: Harikiri Tiger
42** Natsuru too.
43* VocalDissonance: Everyone in their Kampfer forms except Natsuru and Shizuku. Kampfer!Akane for instance sounds like [[Franchise/TheMuppets Animal]] and [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the Heavy Weapons Guy]], complete with the latter's [[HuskyRusskie Russian accent]].
