9''Hiimdaisy'' (pronounced "[[VideoGame/MarioKartDoubleDash Hi, I'm Daisy!]]") is a webcomic that specializes in making [[SeriousBusiness super serious]] games [[AffectionateParody much funnier]].
10
11The artist, known as Creator/GigiDG (or Gigi Digi; formerly Peachifruit), has done several comics, which have gained [[MemeticMutation much fame]] on Website/FourChan. Their comics cover ''VideoGame/MetalGear'', ''VideoGame/ProfessorLayton'', ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy'', ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'', ''VideoGame/Persona3'', ''VideoGame/Persona4'', and ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' (and sometimes, ''VideoGame/Mother3'').
12
13[[http://sir-argues-a-lot.tumblr.com/post/49051606880/hiimdaisy-comic-archive Here is an archive]] of some of the ''Hiimdaisy'' comics. It is actually pretty much [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes the only way you can read it now]], considering the accounts in which the comic was originally hosted all got deleted.
14
15Some of the comics have been adapted into "hyperdubs" by [[https://www.youtube.com/user/BroadSpectrumStudios BroadSpectrumStudios,]] with voice-overs, sound effects and original jokes added. The comic no longer updates, as the author started working on their new original web comic, ''Webcomic/CucumberQuest'', and has stated they have no interest in continuing the comic. Now that ''Webcomic/CucumberQuest'' has been put on [[SeriesHiatus indefinite hiatus]], Gigi Digi is working on their [[VisualNovel visual novel]], Soul of Sovereignty.
16
17Introduction over and we need to post examples! [[VideoGame/MetalGear Snake]], get in there!
18----
19!!Okay! Time to add some examples of tropes in this web com- [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid *bleep bleep*]] [[AnnoyingVideoGameHelper OH WHAT NOW?!]]
20
21* AbusiveParents:
22** Ryotaro Dojima is, to put it lightly, a raging psychopath. On the other hand, he's an [[ComedicSociopathy amusing raging psychopath]]. Also, he [[ParentalNeglect leaves his just-moved-in nephew and his daughter alone to go for some ice cream.]]
23** In ''Let's destroy the FOX Unit'', Elisa told Big Boss he could made a great father someday. Cue ImagineSpot.
24--->'''Solid:''' Dad, guess what! I learned my sixth language today!\
25'''Big Boss:''' Good work, son, [[SoProudOfYou you've made your father proud]].\
26'''Solid:''' Yeah!\
27'''[[TheUnfavorite Liquid]]:''' '''FAAAAAAAAATHEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRR'''; [[WellDoneSonGuy I learned my seventh language today!]]\
28'''Big Boss:''' ''[{{Beat}}]'' '''{{Get Out}}'''. Solidus, where's my dinner?\
29'''Solidus:''' ''[wearing an apron]'' Coming, Dad.
30** Manfred von Karma emotionally abuses his adopted son Miles Edgeworth by taunting him with the idea that Edgeworth's father, [[spoiler:'''who von Karma himself murdered''',]] has come back to life.
31** While Zak Gramarye is a serial asshole to absolutely everyone, he doesn't even have any compassion for his own daughter, who he abandons, and mocks ''twice'' for this.
32* AdaptationalJerkass: [[VisualNovel/ApolloJusticeAceAttorney Zak]], [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker Daphnes]], and [[VideoGame/Persona4 Dojima]] were all supposed to be ''sympathetic'' characters (though the fanbase will readily argue that in Zak's case, [[UnintentionallyUnsympathetic the writers utterly failed to make him this]]). Not here! Why? [[ComedicSociopathy It's funny!]] [[spoiler:Although Dojima is ''slowly'' [[JerkassWoobie becoming more sympathetic as his history comes forward]]... [[YankTheDogsChain only for the comic to abruptly end]]]]. [[invoked]]
33* AdaptationPersonalityChange:
34** Snake is portrayed as a ButtMonkey, Raiden even more so. [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure The King of Hyrule]] and [[VideoGame/Persona4 Dojima]] are portrayed as {{Jerkass}}es. [[invoked]]
35*** [[spoiler:That last slowly started changing, however, as Dojima's character history came to the fore... and Adachi picking up any slack he was leaving, which fits in [[FridgeBrilliance very well]] with the actual game]].
36** About Snake, he's not exactly portrayed as a [[TheWoobie Woobie]]. As with almost all protagonists of Hiimdaisy's parodies, he's the OnlySaneMan and he goes through a lot of shit because of that. Otacon is a more standard [[TheWoobie Woobie.]] ([[VerbalTic "Oh."]])[[invoked]]
37** Ganon is ''also'' portrayed as a ''[[TheWoobie Woobie]]''.[[invoked]]
38** [[VideoGame/{{Mother 3}} Fuel]] is an asshole.
39** Gigi's also singlehandedly responsible for "[[Franchise/AceAttorney Zak Gramarye is a jerk]]", though that's barely AlternateCharacterInterpretation and more FridgeHorror, as most of the horrible things the comics show him doing ([[spoiler:abandoning his daughter, attempting to destroy Phoenix's livelihood for no adequate reason despite him taking care of said daughter, physically assaulting Olga Orly when that attempt goes awry]]) are canon, they just made him ruder about them. [[invoked]]
40* AffectionateParody: It's clear that Gigi loves the games, or they wouldn't be doing such a good job mocking them.
41* AnachronismStew: In ''Lets Destroy The Shagohod!'', you can see Ocelot using a cellphone to take a picture of Snake being tortured, and he also mentions "The Home Shopping Network", all in a parody of a game that takes place during the Cold War.
42* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: Humorously [[SubvertedTrope subverted.]]
43-->'''Snake:''' EVA, I... I need you!... to stop whining and FLY US OUT OF HERE!
44%%* AndThereWasMuchRejoicing: [[spoiler:Morooka's death]] in Persona 4 Comic.
45* AnimalsHateHim: Solid Snake and his tendency to get wolf-dogs surround and bite him all over.
46* AnnoyingVideoGameHelper: [[invoked]] Actually ''inverted'' in "[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid Let's Destroy The Metal Gear!]]" with Naomi.
47-->'''Snake:''' Naomi, what happened--\
48'''Naomi:''' I DON'T KNOW, STOP ASKING ANY QUESTIONS!!\
49'''Snake:''' Naomi--\
50'''Naomi:''' I DON'T KNOW, LEAVE ME ALONE!!\
51'''Snake:''' ... That doesn't answer my question...\
52'''Naomi:''' '''STOP CALLING ME!!!'''
53* AnythingButThat: Exaggerated like everything else.
54-->'''Sokolov:''' ''No, anything but the Lipstick Gun, '''AAAAAAAAAA!'''''
55* [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Arson, Murder,]] [[BreadEggsMilkSquick Squick]]: The Pain.
56-->'''The Pain:''' Tommy Gun! Grenade! ''[[{{Pun}} Bee]][[FanDisservice kini!]]''
57* ArtEvolution: Just compare Let's ''Destroy Metal Gear!'' and ''Let's Destroy the Shagohod!''. There are many improvements to the figure drawing and line techniques.
58* ArtShift:
59** An odd variation, with only two characters concerned. Both are ''extremely'' plot important, however.. Notice [[spoiler:Dojima's face]]? It goes from being rough, beardy, and frankly ugly to being smoother and better looking as the revelation about [[spoiler:his dead wife]] comes to the fore. In addition, [[spoiler:Adachi]] goes from being drawn in a beautiful, sparkly style to having extremely scary expressions as [[spoiler:his true nature starts to slip out, ranging from mocking Dojima over his dead wife to scaring the Investigation Team.]]
60** A straighter example happens while the Investigation Team are on the camping trip, after Kanji has joined the team. He, the main character and Yosuke are sharing a tent, and when Yosuke asks Kanji about ulterior motives, we see Kanji and the MC wondering why Yosuke's panicking in the normal art style, then as seen through Yosuke's eyes, in a yaoi manga-esque style.
61** During the scene where "you wonder why the voice acting is so hard to hear during animated cutscenes", the protagonist's face is drawn {{Bishounen}}-style, probably to poke fun at the fact that the art style in the cutscenes is pretty different from the in-game art.
62** The unmasking of Raiden in ''Let's Destroy Metal Gear again!'' is another good example.
63** '''METAL GEAR!!!''' as done by both Snake and Raiden.
64** There's one image in "Let's Destroy the Fox Unit!" of a Codec between Big Boss and Roy Campbell, intended to look similar to the game itself.
65* AscendedMeme: Marie in ''[[VideoGame/Persona4 Persona 4: Golden]]'' thinks that steak should be replaced by "[=Fsteak=]." as the short form for "beef steak".
66* AssholeVictim: No one cares when Kinshiro "King Moron" Morooka is murdered in ''VideoGame/Persona4''.
67* AttentionWhore: Vamp, possibly, what he does sums it up.
68-->'''Vamp:''' I'M BORED AND I NEED ATTENTION!\
69''[[[spoiler:he then stabs Emma in the back]]]''
70* AwesomeMcCoolname: Young Ocelot was expecting Naked Snake's real name to be something super cool ([[ImagineSpot Snake: "Manly Mc Beefington, kid."]]), and he ended very disappointed.
71-->'''Ocelot's [[ImagineSpot Imagination]]:''' Manly [=McBeefington=], kid.\
72'''Snake:''' John.\
73'''Ocelot's Imagination:''' Super boring.
74%%* BeatPanel: Many times, usually featuring [[OnlySaneMan Snake/Raiden/Big Boss/Yu Narukami]].
75* BerserkButton:
76** Kanji doesn't like certain implications.
77--->'''Kanji:''' "You sayin' I like dudes? TAKIN' YOU PUNKS DOWN RAAAAAAAAA"
78** And [[http://i.imgur.com/7aLfJht.png this little gem]]:
79--->'''[[{{Jerkass}} Zak Gramarye]]:''' My next act is dedicated to all you boys and girls who ''suck at poker''.
80* BigNo: Hilariously played by Otacon, especially in the [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?p=DA117AAE69F96EFB Hyperdub]]. His "Noooooooooooo" is using the most pathetically dorky voice there is. [[SlowNo And taken slowly without slow-motion]]
81* BigWhat: Naked Snake's general reaction to anything crazy whether it be the End shooting him or the Boss casually telling him (before her betrayal even!) that he'll have to kill her.
82* BishieSparkle: Raiden does this twice during ''Lets Destroy Metal Gear Again!'' Once when he first takes off his scuba mask, the second when Ocelot tears his disguise off. The latter is accompanied by a drastic ArtShift for comedic effect.
83* BlatantLies: When Volgin nukes part of Russia.
84-->'''Volgin:''' The Boss did that.
85* BorrowedCatchphrase:
86** Gene borrows Liquid's "BROOOOOOOOTHHHEEEEEERRRRRR!" catchphrase in Let's Defeat the FOX Unit.
87--->'''Gene:''' My voice has MAGICAL powers because I'm a successor to The Boss. Which makes us BROOOOOOOOTHHHEEEEEERRRRRRS!
88** Ocelot borrows Snake's "Here I go" in ''Let's Destroy Metal Gear Again'', when he launched a rocket from a Metal Gear.
89** Chie also says "Here I go" in her LeeroyJenkins moment at Shadow Yukiko's castle.
90*** [[spoiler:Shadow Teddie]] also borrows this phrase at the start of his boss fight.
91* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: In reference to CQC from ''Metal Gear 3''. "KNIFE! GUN! '''KNIFEGUN!'''
92* ButtMonkey:
93** Everyone has Young Ocelot's number and he gets owned repeatedly throughout the story.
94--->'''Ocelot:''' SELF-ESTEEM TEAM! MEOWWWWWW!
95** Liquid doesn't seem very well liked by his dad
96--->'''Big Boss:''' [[BaitTheDog Hey kids! We're going to the beach!]]\
97'''Little Solid and Liquid Snake:''' Yaaaaaay\
98'''Big Boss:''' Not you, Liquid! You're going to the dentist!\
99'''Little Solid and Liquid Snake:''' Yaaaaaay\
100'''Little Liquid Snake:''' [[DoubleTake Wait, what?]]
101* ButThouMust:
102** In addition to the opener for ''Persona 4'', the Protagonist tries to get the Investigation Team to interrupt Rise before she can press her Shadow's BerserkButton. With no success.
103--->'''Rise:''' Stop! Y-You're--\
104'''Narrator/Protagonist:''' Hey guys, shouldn't we stop her now before we have to fight her sha--\
105'''Rise:''' not...!\
106'''Narrator/Protagonist:''' UM YOU GUYS WE SHOULD REALLY TRY--\
107'''Rise:''' [[OhCrap MEEEE]]
108** The Protagonist is also pissed off when he tries to choose Chie for joining him in a stakeout, only to be told he still needs to start Yukiko's Social Link, to Yukiko's delight.
109* CallingYourAttacks:
110** Eyepatch Explanation... Kick!
111** Electric bullet punch!
112** '''VOLGIN THUNDER CRAAAASSHHH'''
113* CampGay: Shadow Kanji.
114-->'''Shadow Kanji:''' I'm Kanji Tatsumi, and I enjoy naked men. ''Ohhhhh yahhhhh.''
115* CanonImmigrant: "Fsteak" has become part of the official ''Persona 4'' canon, [[http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/fsteak as of]] ''Persona 4 Golden''.
116* CaptainObvious: There are many examples of dopey, obvious characters:
117** ''Persona 4 examples'':
118--->'''Chie:''' Hey, there's a noose here!\
119'''Narrator/Protagonist:''' Spooky. Your thoughts, Yosuke?\
120'''Yosuke:''' Nooses are bad.\
121'''Narrator/Protagonist:''' Super!
122** Later:
123--->'''Adachi:''' Um, so what do we know about the case so far?\
124'''Dojima:''' The perp is '''probably in Inaba.'''\
125[[http://www.box.net/shared/6zp13xloyu ''~ACE DETECTIVE~'']]
126** In ''Let's Destroy Metal Gear Again'':
127--->'''Raiden:''' Time to rescue Emma-- [bleep bleep]]\
128'''Colonel Roy:''' Raiden, you have to rescue Emma!\
129'''Snake:''' Boy, you have to rescue Emma!
130* CatchPhrase:
131** Snake/[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty Raiden]]'s "OKAY," "Time to do X" before being interrupted by a Codec call and variations of "Here I goooo!"
132** Liquid Snake's "BROOOOOOOOTHHHEEEEEERRRRRR!"
133* CombatPragmatist: Snake often cuts to the chase.
134-->'''Sniper Wolf:''' Snake, we've got to battle like sniper warriors!\
135'''Snake:''' Actually, I'm going to hide behind this rock and fire remote-controlled missiles from where it's impossible for you to hit me.\
136'''Sniper Wolf:''' ''[BOOM]'' [[BigWhat What!]]
137%%* ComedicSociopathy
138* CompellingVoice: '''Thou Art Thee Art Thou Stick Your Hand In The TV Do It Do It Do It'''.
139* ConvenienceStoreGiftShopping: And poor Nanako, bless her, tries not to [[MyNewGiftIsLame sound disappointed]] at the t-shirt that congratulates her on giving birth. For a kid.
140* CreepyUncle: Dojima. I mean, what other kind of uncle buys his 16 year old nephew a ''speedo''?
141-->'''Dojima:''' Hey, no need to be so formal! ''I've seen you naked.''
142* CrossCounter: Parodied in ''Lets Destroy the Shagohod!'' with the words "'''SNAKE EATEERRRR!''' ''Doo doo do doo doooo!''" in the background. Also,
143-->'''Snake:''' Are you seriously [[NavelDeepNeckline not going to zip up your shirt?]]
144* CurbStompBattle:
145** Every ''Persona 4'' Boss Battle. 1) Enter boss. 2) Attack its weakness. 3) [[OneHitKill *PFFFT*]] 4) [[DefeatMeansFriendship New party member.]]
146** Also every ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' Boss Battle. Inverted, then played straight with The End.
147* DadaComics: '''Thou Art Thee Art Thou Stick Your Hand In The TV Do It Do It Do It.''' They make more sense if you've played the games, but they can still get pretty damn weird. [[SurrealHumor In a good way]].
148* DeadpanSnarker: The main character in each strip AKA [[OnlySaneMan the only dude who makes any sense]] ([[RuleOfFunny but not always]]).
149* DeathSeeker:
150** [[spoiler:Ryoji]] cranks this up to disturbing (and amusing) degrees.
151--->'''Ryoji:''' [[DissonantSerenity So like, whenever you're ready.]]
152** So does Fortune:
153--->'''Fortune:''' I HATE EVERYBODY AND I WANT TO DIE!!!
154* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Invoked with some of the [[LargeHam hammy, obsessive]] characters from the Metal Gear Solid games.
155-->'''Solidus:''' '''I AM THE BOSS TO SURPASS BIG BOSS I WILL BECOME THE BIGGEST BOSS BOSS BOSS BOSS.'''\
156'''Olga:''' The patriots stole my child and they will terminate my child I have not seen my child if you die my child will child child child.\
157'''The Boss:''' '''DARKNESS IS LIGHT'S LIGHT OF DARKNESS AS A DARK FAREWELL TO DARK LIGHTNESS.'''
158%%* DeusAngstMachina: "ANGST SHIELD ACTIVATED!"
159* DiggingYourselfDeeper: Lampshaded.
160-->'''The Sorrow:''' I am The Sorrow.\
161'''Snake:''' A Cobra I can take seriously!?\
162'''The Sorrow:''' ''[creepy smile, broken glasses, TearsOfBlood]'' EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE\
163'''Snake:''' ''[{{Facepalm}}]'' Why I keep doing this to myself?
164* DownerEnding: Due to SeriesHiatus, the ''Persona 4'' FanVid ends in this... using this line: [[RunningGag "And no one survived that night."]]. It's still hilarious, though. Subverted that the FanVid eventually [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj-vbrbp7rU dubs the unfinished bonus part]], and turns it into a GainaxEnding.
165%%* DrivenToMadness: All Metal Gear protagonists. (ZCE)
166%%** Poor Raiden. He ended with so many unanswered questions. (ZCE)
167%%** Poor Naked Snake. (ZCE)
168%%** And poor Solid Snake. (ZCE)
169%%--->'''Solid Snake:''' [[DespairEventHorizon After a while, you just stop asking these questions.]] (ZCE)
170%%* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:Otacon]] at the end of ''Let's Destroy Metal Gear''. (ZCE)
171* DynamicEntry: Dojima prefers to do this whenever he shuts Adachi up.
172* EveryoneCanSeeIt: A one-sided example in the ''Persona 4'' comic, Yukiko's Social Link to break the ice is simplified:
173-->'''Yukiko:''' ''[[LoveAtFirstSight BOYS BOYS BOYS BOYS BOYS BOYS BOYS BOYS BOYS!]]''
174* ExactWords: When the ''Persona 4'' protagonist gets fed up trying to get coffee out of Dojima.
175-->'''Protagonist:''' Surprise me?\
176'''Dojima:''' ''[[spoiler:[[ComedicSociopathy [throws the coffee in his face[=]=]]]]]''
177* [[ExpressiveShirt Expressive Hat]]:
178** Naked Snake's Crocodile Hat cries with him.
179** Also, the pin on Older Phoenix's hat.
180* EyesAlwaysShut: Barring the first codec scene, The Boss sports this. She still can pull a DeathGlare with eyes shut, though.
181** And when she is showing the birth scar that she has, her eyes are open.
182* FailedASpotCheck: Guards fall for Naked Snake's tricks easily.
183-->'''Naked Snake:''' I'M A TREE!\
184'''Guard:''' ''[shrug]''
185* FanVid: Many, ''many'' fandubs can be found on Youtube. Special mention goes to...
186** [[https://www.youtube.com/user/StrawberryCreme26 StrawberryCreme26's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mUTQKMRLYQ dub]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbmOdo9qW4A of]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qR_LM4nQ7w the]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-C6khcmGnss Persona 4]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj-vbrbp7rU comic]], which is very well-done, with excellent use of voice, sound and editing, and actually manages to make some of the jokes ''funnier''. And even ''adds jokes''. Peachi herself recommended it!
187*** They also uploaded a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeHorgbXb50 dub]] for ''VisualNovel/ApolloJusticeAceAttorney'', which is absolutely hilarious.
188** Creator/BroadSpectrumStudios created arguably the most professional dub for the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stis8mv67eA Metal]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpJhZm1v2Yc Gear]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYiV-mBF8sY Solid]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MGCr1CVWkE comics]]. They went on to finish the entire Metal Gear Solid collection with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wcH0FCPx0w Let's Destroy]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coinBG5a38o Metal]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hadrpPMqgc Gear]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BL3yn9voI-w Again]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chJ_wdPb7lY Let's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCE2KqZ-LDo Destroy]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jc-TLLXCLYk the]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtkDpJvdDYo Shagohod]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koi0ZXOVu4c Let's Defeat the FOX Unit]].
189*** Broad Spectrum are the first and only creators to dub all major Hiimdaisy Metal Gear comics, and the first to allow fan auditions for their comic dubs.
190** While not given recommendations yet, [[https://www.youtube.com/user/theproofreader theproofreader's]] ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater'' comic fandub is also quite good. He has expressed his interest to continue with the first ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' comic.
191** Even Creator/LittleKuriboh [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WY8ZnAqUdgU got in on the action.]]
192*** Notably for Creator/LittleKuriboh and theproofreader, their versions basically only use two people for dubbing the whole characters.
193** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WPEiOhlftA The dub of Ryojiventures]]. The first fifteen seconds really say it all.
194*** That same person also did [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3eWbz-7dz0 this.]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFVtXLhAoAI And this, just so Professor Layton get some lovely dubs]].
195** Any Fan Vid of one of her comics is basically an Abridged Series version of the original game.
196* FlatWhat: Usually with a BigShutUp as answer.
197* GagCensor: Revolver Ocelot becomes this in at least two torture scenes.
198* GagNose: Igor's gets taken up to eleven.
199* GenreSavvy: The Persona 4 Protagonist. [[TooDumbToLive Too bad]] [[StupidityIsTheOnlyOption nobody cares]].
200* GoodIsDumb: Lampshaded.
201-->'''Yukiko:''' Hey, [[spoiler:Kanji]]'s gone missing! What do you think?\
202'''Protagonist:''' \
203[ ] I dunno \
204[>] [[GenreSavvy He's in the TV]]\
205'''Narrator:''' You wanted to say that, but you don't have enough [[color:green:Common Sense]].
206* GovernmentConspiracy: Parodied in ''Lets Destroy Metal Gear Again!''
207-->'''President:''' The president doesn't have any real power. This entire country is really controlled by THE PATRIOTS! '''CONSPIRACY THEORY, CONSPIRACY THEORY, CONSPIRACY THEORY!'''\
208'''Raiden:''' .__.
209* GroinAttack: How Chie introduces herself. Fortunately, she isn't targeting the protagonist. ''Un''fortunately (maybe), she's targeting [[ButtMonkey Yosuke]].
210%%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mUTQKMRLYQ&t=2m1s OH, MOTHERFUCKER... *thud*]]
211* HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday: Kanji has trouble getting people to believe he likes girls after his Shadow-self pretty much admits that he's gay. During the camping trip he even tried to jump into the girl's tent ''completely naked''. After he joined the team, Yosuke started showing hints of this as when he was afraid of catching Kanji's gayness.
212* HeroicMime: True to the game, the protagonist in the ''Persona 3'' comics.
213* HollywoodHeartAttack: The ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' comics have a lot of HHHNNNNNNNGGGGG induced deaths.
214* HorrifyingTheHorror: In ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater Let's Destroy the Shaghohod]]'', Colonel Volgin gives Ocelot a DeathGlare for criticizing him, prompting frantic apologies from the latter. When Volgin asks The Boss why her unit sucks so much just moments later, The Boss gives ''him'' a DeathGlare, prompting equally frantic apologies on his part.
215* HurricaneOfPuns:
216** Teddie from ''Persona 4'' still does this, and the joke that portrays this habit -- which has him using Bear as a synonym for ''everything'' -- is accompanied by quite possibly the best face anyone's ever done on Teddie in a comic.
217** [[AnIcePerson Python]] from ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolidPortableOps'' is portrayed as this. [[Film/BatmanAndRobin Mr. Freeze]] would be proud.
218* TheHyena: Yukiko.
219-->'''Narrator:''' Shut up. It's an endearing character trait.
220* HystericalWoman:
221** Emma Emmerich.
222--->'''Emma:''' What about me?\
223'''Raiden:''' Oh, Emma. We have to get out of here before--\
224'''Emma:''' AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA--\
225'''Raiden:''' Uh, Emma, we really need to get out...\
226'''Emma:''' AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA--\
227'''Raiden:''' Here, just take a deep breath...\
228'''Emma:''' ''[while underwater]'' GRHLBHRGLRBRLG
229** Sokolov is a ''Hysterical Man'':
230--->'''Sokolov:''' Volgin's gonna get me and take my nuclear rocket tank! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-- ''[continues to do so as Snake encounters Ocelot]''\
231'''Sokolov:''' No, anything but the lipstick gun, AAAAAAAAAAAAA!\
232'''Sokolov:''' Volgin's gonna mass produce them [Shagohod] and destroy the world! AAAAAAAAAAAA!!
233* IgnoredAesop: The Sorrow wanted to teach to Snake that killing people is bad. It didn't turned as planned.
234-->'''Dead Scientist:''' AAAAAAAAHHH! I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE DROPPED OUT!\
235'''Snake:''' Hey I remember that loser! Yeah, I got you good, huh?\
236'''The Sorrow:''' Okay you know what, you know what just '''{{GET OUT}}.'''
237* IHaveBoobsYouMustObey: Eva. She can't imagine why this wouldn't work on [[SorryImGay Ocelot]].
238* IncomingHam:
239** '''Every. Single. Member''' of the Cobra Unit before Snake fights them ("I am The [Noun]. [NOOOOUUUUUNNNN]!!!"). Even The Boss isn't safe.
240--->'''The Boss:''' '''DARKNESS IS LIGHT'S LIGHT OF DARKNESS AS A DARK FAREWELL TO DARK LIGHTNESS'''
241** And then there's Liquid Snake
242--->'''Liquid Snake:''' So we meet at last... ''BROOOOOOOOTHHHEEEEEERRRRRR''.
243* IncrediblyLamePun:
244** The Boss from ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater''
245--->'''The Boss:''' ''[about The End]'' Once he's done taking his nap, it'll be ''The End'' for the boy... Yeah, that was pretty good, huh.\
246'''Snake:''' ''[sobbing]'' T-The Boss and I used to make bad puns together...
247** Another one after Snake loses his eye:
248--->'''Paramedic:''' Snake, have you ever seen Dracula?\
249'''Snake:''' No!\
250'''Paramedic:''' Well, I guess you can only see ''half'' of it now!\
251'''Sigint:''' '''[[{{Troll}} OOOOOOOOHHHHH.]]'''
252** And this exchange in ''Let's Destroy Metal Gear'':
253--->'''Meryl:''' Since Psycho Mantis screwed with my mind, I can see where the mines are!\
254'''Snake:''' You might call yourself... a '''mine reader'''.\
255''[they laugh, before Meryl [[DisproportionateRetribution punches him]]]''
256* IKnowMortalKombat: Raiden was trained by video games!
257* InfoDump:
258** Parodied in the ''Persona 4'' comics.
259--->'''TV:''' PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT PLOT
260** Because the ''Metal Gear'' series is filled with long, wordy expository cutscenes, the comics tend to do something similar by trying to translate all the nonsense in a single panel.
261--->'''Liquid Snake:''' ''[explaining his goal]'' BlahBlahBlah BIG BOSS ETERNAL WAR\
262'''Otacon:''' ''[explaining Snake's equipment]'' BlahBlahBlah BlahBlahBlah DISTRACTING DIALOGUE BlahBlahBlah BlahBlahBlah\

265'''Volgin:''' ''[explaining the Philosopher's Legacy]'' US CHINA SOVIET UNION SECRET PACT TONS OF MONEY MY DAD IT NOW IT'S MINE
266* {{Jerkass}}:
267** [[VisualNovel/ApolloJusticeAceAttorney Zak Gramarye]], [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker The King of Hyrule]], and later Link are the most prominent examples... though Snake ("I'm hungry" "Yeah, whatever, kid") has his moments.
268%%** [[http://hiimdaisy.livejournal.com/25547.html#cutid1 This]] kind of takes Snake's {{Jerkass}}ery to a whole new level, though.
269** Yosuke reminding Nanako about her mom's death just after her dad cancelled the trip she was waiting so much.
270** Notice that in the game, Yosuke does it by accident, here he doesn't even apologize.
271--->'''Yosuke:''' Oh, it's okay, Nanako-chan, it's not like '''your mom's dead''' or anything!\
272'''Nanako:''' ''[shocked, crying face]''\
273'''Yosuke:''' OK, who wants some sodas?\
274'''Yukiko:''' [[RefugeInAudacity Ha ha]]
275*** Dojima, as mentioned above, is a raging psychopath.
276* KickTheDog: Manfred von Karma to Edgeworth.
277-->'''Von Karma:''' Hello Edgeworth. Your father has come back to life and he's waiting in the foyer.\
278'''Edgeworth:''' Sir, I'm 19. That's not going to work on me anymore.\
279''[beat]''\
280'''Von Karma:''' '''HE DIED LIKE A DOG AND SO WILL YOU!''' ''[slams door, Edgeworth starts crying]''
281* LampshadeHanging: There's a reason this comic is used to illustrate so many pages.
282-->'''Volgin:''' Let's see how you handle slightly modified versions of the same three attacks!
283* LarynxDissonance: In the Persona 4 FanVid with Yukiko, though only before she becomes important.
284* LeeroyJenkins: Snake and Gray Fox have their moments.
285-->'''Snake:''' OK I got a Mine Detector! HERE I '''GOOOOOO!!!''' [''steps on a mine]''\
286'''Gray Fox:''' I'm going to kill everyone in this hallway indiscriminately for no reason! ''[confronting Otacon]'' OK '''HERE I GOOOOO!!!'''
287* {{Leitmotif}}: In the Broad Spectrum Studios fandub of ''VideoGame/{{Metal Gear Solid 2|SonsOfLiberty}}'', every time Peter Stillman talks, [[Film/PulpFiction Jungle Boogie plays]].
288* LogicBomb: Fortune is too angsty for logic
289-->'''Fortune:''' I'm Fortune. I wanna die but I can't because bullets won't hit me!\
290'''Raiden:''' ...[[ArmorPiercingQuestion why don't you kill yourself some other way?]]\
291'''Fortune:''' What?\
292'''Raiden:''' There are other ways to die, you know. Y... you don't have to get shot--\
293'''Fortune:''' ''[[[UnstoppableRage firing her railgun]]]'' '''AAAAAA SHUP UP I HATE LOGIC!'''
294* LostFoodGrievance: Yukiko's fried tofu.
295* MadonnaWhoreComplex: "[[VideoGame/Persona4 EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM IS A WHORE! NOW TAKE A CHASTITY BELT AND SIT DOWN!]]"
296* MadnessMantra:
297** "[[VideoGame/Persona4 ...m-my fried tofu...]]"
298** [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater "Do not punch. Do not punch. Do not punch. Do not punch..."]]
299%%* MemeticMolester: [[VideoGame/Persona3 Igor]]'s AlternateCharacterInterpretation. [[invoked]]
300* {{Metaphorgotten}}: The Boss's '''DARKNESS IS LIGHT'S LIGHT OF DARKNESS AS A DARK FAREWELL TO DARK LIGHTNESS.''' Lampshaded when Snake says that nothing that she says makes sense.
301* MoodWhiplash:
302** [[ThePowerOfFriendship "You became friends with Yosuke!]] Yosuke will now '''[[TakingTheBullet DIE FOR YOU.]]'''"
303** Right after [[spoiler:Shadow Teddie]]'s Existential Kids Korner... he says he's going to kill everyone in the room. The character's reactions are absolutely '''priceless.'''
304** "Know who else is thinking about murders? This creepy, but otherwise harmless stalker! Case closed! [[spoiler:'''You know, you kids really ought to STOP GETTING INVOLVED with this stuff.''']] Welp, justice is served! Take care!"
305** The scene after Raiden shoots Vamp:
306--->'''Fortune:''' NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO--\
307'''Raiden:''' I, uh... I'm gonna go now, I guess--\
308'''Fortune:''' AAAAAAAAAAAAAA--\
309'''Raiden:''' You're kinda freaking me out--\
310'''Fortune:''' AA'''[[LaughingMad HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA--]]'''\
311'''Vamp:''' Dude, I'm not dead, chill out.\
312'''Fortune:''' Yaayyyy! Let's paint our nails and talk about boys <3
313* MomentKiller: Even Snake can turn off.
314-->'''Eva:''' No, thanks. I don't eat snakes for dinner. ''[lecherous gaze]'' But I wouldn't mind ''eating YOU.''\
315''[Eva dives on Snake, kissing and slurping him to the sounds of the Snake Eater theme]''\
316'''Snake:''' ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Eva, I'm kinda not in the mood...\
317'''Eva:''' Come on, Snake! '''[[NightmareFetishist What isn't sexy about losing an eye!?!]]'''
318* MortonsFork: There's no way to get a positive response from Dojima when he asks how you take your coffee:
319-->'''Black:''' Don't try to sound tough you sissy.\
320'''With cream:''' Oh, coming right up, '''madam'''.\
321'''Cream and sugar:''' What are you, '''Nanako?''' [[note]][[FunnyBackgroundEvent Nanako: Daddy, I want it black!]][[/note]]\
322'''Surprise me:''' ''[throws it at your face]''.
323* MotorMouth: Apollo Justice, when he's busy fanboying about Phoenix Wright.
324-->'''Apollo:''' You know what '''CARS''' remind me of?! Phoenix Wright! [=CauseIalwaysrememberthatonecasewhere=]...
325* MyNameIsInigoMontoya:
326** Every Cobra unit members introduces themselves with Snake as such.
327--->'''The Pain:''' I am The Pain. '''PAAAAAAIIIIINNNN!!!!'''\
328'''The Fear:''' I am The Fear. '''FEEEEEAAAAARRRRR!!!!'''\
329'''The End:''' I am The End. '''EEEENNNNNNNNDDD!!!!'''
330** Averted for The Joy (AKA The Boss), while The Fury just goes with "I am The Fury!". It's a little subverted for The Sorrow.
331* MysteriousPast: Mocked with Solid Snake and Raiden to lesser degree.
332-->'''Meryl:''' So Snake... what's your name?\
333'''Snake:''' Shut up.\
334'''Meryl:''' How old are you?\
335'''Snake:''' Shut up.\
336'''Meryl:''' H-Hobbies?\
337'''Snake:''' Shut up.\
338'''Meryl:''' Any family?\
339'''Snake:''' Shut up.\
340'''Meryl:''' Anyone you--?\
341'''Snake:''' '''Shut up Shut up Shut up SHUT UP'''
342* NakedPeopleAreFunny:
343** In ''Let's Destroy Metal Gear Again'', Ocelot admits there was not reason behind torturing Raiden in the nude.
344--->'''Ocelot:''' Well, that's just something [[ForTheLulz I threw in for fun]].
345** In ''Let's Destroy The FOX Unit'', Gene stripped Big Boss just so he gets an awkward moment between him an Elisa.
346--->'''Li'l Snake:''' Hello everyone.
347* NietzscheWannabe: Shadow Teddie. Unsurprisingly, HilarityEnsues.
348-->'''Shadow Teddie, Protagonist, Kanji, and Yosuke:''' ''[singing]'' [[LyricalDissonance Your futile exis-tence has no meeea-ning~]]
349* NightmareFetishist: EVA and Ocelot both consider Snake losing his eye via a bullet to the face hot.
350-->'''Ocelot:''' I have a torture fetish!
351* NobodyHereButUsBirds: Naturally occurs in "Let's Destroy the Shagohod", but Peachi makes it outright hilarious by having it succeed despite Snake not even trying. For example, ''saying'' "Caw." while a guard is looking right at him, or saying "I'm a tree" while holding a couple of branches, again while a guard looks right at him.
352** Subverted when a guard saw him with his crocodile cap and confused him with a crocodile ''with a gun''.
353* NoEnding: The ''Persona 4'' comic stops at the fight against Shadow Teddie. The unfinished pages depict the ending of the fight, but then it stops after it shows Teddie's new, human body.
354* NoSympathy: ''[=P4=]'s'' Protagonist can come off like this sometimes. A heaping helping of the rest of the parody comics do this too, in order to facilitate the black comedy.
355-->'''Ayane:''' Who's going to help me out with my self-esteem issues?\
356'''Narrator:''' (immediately) You decided to join Drama.\
357''(Protagonist leaves with zero hesitation as Ayane cries)''
358* NoJustNoReaction: The MC's response to being asked to join the sports club and band club.
359* NoNameGiven: The Persona 4 Protagonist.
360* NoOneCouldSurviveThat: It lampshades gameplay vs. cutscenes.
361-->'''Sniper Wolf:''' I am Sniper Wolf, and somehow I am unharmed after, like, 8 bullets to the face. [[DistractedByTheSexy Look at my boobs.]]
362* NoodlePeople: "Can I touch your handddd?", asks the Gas Station Attendant as her arm makes contortions a tentacle would be proud of.
363%%* NoPunctuationIsFunnier
364* NotQuiteDead: Anything to play events for laughs.
365-->'''Big Boss:''' ''[after blowing up a Metal Gear with Elisa inside]'' Elisa, I'm sorry.\
366'''Elisa:''' ''[flying out]'' I'M OKAAAAAAAAY~
367* ObviouslyEvil:
368** Let's just say that [[spoiler:Adachi]] is more obvious in this adaptation.
369** Not to mention, [[spoiler:Kristoph Gavin]].
370* OnceAnEpisode: The first three ''Metal Gear'' parodies open with the protagonist's MissionControl giving an incredibly simplified explanation of the mission (E.G., "[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty The Marines have a Metal Gear, and I want pictures!]]"), followed by "Snake, get in there!", with Snake (or Raiden) responding with "[[CatchPhrase OKAY]]!" Happens twice in the ''2'' and ''3'' episodes, due to the nature of those games having a prologue.
371* OnlySaneMan:
372** The Protagonists of each game are forced to weather the insanity of the other characters. The Persona 4 [[HelloInsertNameHere Protagonist]] has it the worst so far. By [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty MGS2]], Snake states that he just stopped asking questions.
373*** Though, to be honest, Snake's sanity seems to have slipped a bit by [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty MGS2]] (Probably a side-effect of Raiden becoming the main protagonist, and therefore, the new OnlySaneMan)
374** In the Persona 4 comics, Adachi is this to the police force initially by virtue of being [[PoliceAreUseless the only one who is actually interested in solving the murders.]] [[spoiler:Yes, we mean ''[[AxCrazy that]]'' Adachi. Though he does start losing this status as the comics go on.]]
375* PassiveAggressiveKombat:
376** Saki's dialogue towards Yosuke varies between this and SugaryMalice.
377--->'''Saki:''' Hey, Hana-chan! Driving all the family-owned stores out of business by bringing your stupid friends here?\
378'''Yosuke:''' W... what?\
379'''Saki:''' Wait, what? I don't even know, I'm so tired!
380** Adachi becomes a fan of this in the later comics
381--->'''Dojima:''' We need to find a new lead before the killer's trail goes stone cold.\
382'''Adachi:''' ''[darkly]'' Like your dead wife?\
383'''Dojima:''' Wait, what!?\
384'''Adachi:''' Huh, what?
385* PassThePopcorn: The Protagonist, Yosuke, and Teddie do this while watching Chie and her Shadow argue.
386%%* PerpetualFrowner: Ema Skye.
387%%* PhraseCatcher: "Shut up, Adachi."
388* PoliceAreUseless: Moreso since they are ''not even trying'' to be useful.
389-->'''Dojima:''' All this work is such a pain. It's like people expect the police to ''solve crimes'' or something. Nanako, get Daddy another beer.
390* PorkyPigPronunciation: Ocelot having trouble saying "Shalashaska"; his own code name.
391* PornStash: Yosuke's impression of the Persona 4 Protagonist has taken a critical hit... since it's ''not even porn''.
392%%* PottyEmergency: "I have to pee!" "I HAVE TO PEE!" ''"YOU GUYS! I HAVE TO PEE SO BAD '''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis I'M GONNA PEE! RIGHT! HERE!]]'''"''
393* ThePowerOfFriendship:
394** Yosuke will now '''die for you'''.
395** Subverted in Persona 3:
396--->'''Narration:''' ''A mysterious mass of energy is gathering...''\
397'''Narration:''' ''The powerful emotions of your friends and loved ones are flowing into your heart...!''\
398'''Gourmet King:''' I thought about you when I farted.
399* PrecisionFStrike: Persona 4.
400-->'''Chie:''' TRIAL OF THE DRAGON! ''[WHAM]''\
401'''Yosuke:''' ''[in crippling pain]'' Oh, motherfucker...
402* PregnantBadass: Subverted and Deconstructed. The Boss really wanted to be this, despite her team warning her not to. It goes about as well as you'd expect.
403--> '''Snake''': Wait, why were you on a mission while you were pregnant?!
404--> ''cue flashback''
405--> '''The Boss''': Okay, let's do this!
406--> '''The Fear''': Uh, boss...
407--> '''The Fury''': We didn't want to have to say this but...
408--> '''The Sorrow''': Maybe you should start thinking about the baby?
409--> '''The Boss''': SHUT UP! IT'S MY BODY! I'LL DO WHAT I WANT! COBRA'S HOOOOOOOO! ''[[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome (falls on her face)]]''
410* PunctuatedForEmphasis: Kanji after his BerserkButton is pushed.
411-->'''[[AmbiguouslyGay Kanji Tatsumi]]:''' I! LOVE! '''WOMEN!'''
412* PungeonMaster: Aside Teddie, Python love to make puns related with ice.
413-->'''Python:''' ''Freeze'' Snake! Time to put your plans ''on ice''. So ''freezed'' to meet you again, Snake! It's just like ''cold'' old times! Better ''chill out'' when you deal with this ''cool customer''', or you might get ''freezer-burned''. Because I'm no bark, all ''frostbite''. You're on ''thin ice''! So ''freeze'' the frame and-- ''[Snake shoots him in the face]'' OW MY FACE MY FACE MY FACE
414* RapidFireComedy: Because of the comics' format ("Okay, uh... This is ''really'' long! Get a snack!"), the joke density is quite high.
415* RealMenTakeItBlack [[RealMenHateSugar And Hate Sugar]]: A parody of the coffee scene in ''VideoGame/Persona4'' goes both ways:
416-->'''Black:''' Don't try to sound tough you sissy.\
417'''With cream:''' Oh, coming right up, '''madam'''.\
418'''Cream and sugar:''' What are you, '''Nanako?'''[[note]][[FunnyBackgroundEvent Daddy, I want it black!]][[/note]]\
419'''Surprise me:''' ''[throws it at your face]''.
420* RefugeInAudacity: Don Paolo in ''VideoGame/ProfessorLaytonAndTheDiabolicalBox''. Not only is he wearing a PaperThinDisguise of [[spoiler:Flora]], when Layton chances to catch him half-dressed, what does he do?
421-->'''Paolo:''' ''[stares]''\
422'''Layton:''' ''[stares]''\
423'''Paolo:''' Is this how you treat a ''LADY?!''
424* RuleOfSymbolism: Thoroughly mocked.
425-->'''Narration:''' ''[about Chie's shadow]'' Dominatrix Banana Head!\
426'''Narration:''' ''a[bout Yukiko's shadow]'' It's symbooooolic~!\
427'''Narration:''' ''[about Kanji's shadow]'' It's still symbooooolic! ([[DontExplainTheJoke you know, because he's gay]]) ([[OverlyLongGag do you get it]])
428* RunningGag:
429** "And no one ate dinner that night."
430** SOCIAL LINK '''GO!'''
431** '''DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE!!!'''
432** [[invoked]] "Let's accomplish an objective!" -ring ring- [CALL] "[[AnnoyingVideoGameHelper OF COURSE.]]"
433*** Bonus points for always being in the same pose every single time. And this gag happens 50+ times throughout the series.
434*** [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] at one point.
435----> '''Raiden:''' Time to rescue Emma... Whoa, really?
436** Adachi wants to talk about '''MURDERS''' (Yaaaayyyy!)
437** ''"Did someone say [insert something here]!?"''
438** "No fighting!"
439** ''[enthusiastic mention of Junes]''
440---> YAAAAAAAAY!
441** '''STEAK.'''
442** '''HERE I GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!'''
443** '''BROOOOOOOOOTHEEEEEEEEERRRRRR'''.
444** Dude, chill out.
445** Wiggle, wiggle! Limited to the Metal Gear parodies, but not limited to just Meryl on her butt, but also on Raiden's butt (or hanging) and EVA's boobs.
446* SamusIsAGirl:
447** Yeah, you'd be surprised how many people don't realise that "Hiimdaisy" is a contraction of "Hi I'm Daisy" and think she's a dude.
448** Or assume the LJ name is a reference to the VideoGame/MarioKart meme and has nothing to do with her real gender.
449* SanitySlippage: Solid Snake goes from the OnlySaneMan to more unhinged in [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty MGS2]]. In his own words, [[DespairEventHorizon he's just stopped asking questions.]]
450* ScareChord: The Persona video regularly uses the ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' ScareChord regularly for comedic effect.
451* ScreamingAtSquick: ''[=StrawberryCreme26=]'''s dub give to Yosuke [[http://youtu.be/6qR_LM4nQ7w?t=8m32s the most angsty scream ever]] after watching [[CampGay Shadow Kanji]] on the TV.
452* ShaggyFrogStory: ''Let's destroy Metal Gear again'' as a whole. Poor Raiden is the one most screwed up.
453-->'''Raiden:''' Otacon, the Colonel's transmissions aren't making any sense anymore! '''Who am I kidding!? They never make any sense! This is the worst mission EVER!!'''
454* ShoehornedFirstLetter: Chie misses the point.
455-->'''Shadow Teddie:''' The word of the day is: FUTILE! As in: "Your futile existence has no meaning." Chie, do you know any other words that start with F?\
456'''Chie:''' [[TrademarkFavoriteFood Fsteak]].\
457'''Shadow Teddie:''' Excellent.
458* ShootTheShaggyDog: Parodied in "Let's Destroy Metal Gear Again" when [[spoiler:Vamp kills Emma.]]
459-->'''Snake:''' Kid! [[spoiler:Emma's]] being stabbed! [[spoiler:She's]] gonna die!\
460'''Raiden:''' Why am I even trying anymore?
461* ShoutOut: In the ''Metal Gear Solid 3'' hyperdub, The Pain's voice is an imitation of ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' Waspinator: a fitting choice.
462** In the ''Portable Ops'' hyperdub, [[spoiler:Cunningham's death]] is a parody of the final showdown of ''{{Film/Predator}}'', due to [[spoiler:Cunningham]] resorting to a TakingYouWithMe SuicideAttack while [[LaughingMad laughing maniacally]] as he triggers the bomb. The hyperdub even edits in footage from the movie to make the shout-out that much clearer.
463%%* TheStakeout: Chie misses the point. (ZCE)
464%%-->'''Chie:''' '''WHO SAID STEAK?''' (ZCE)
465* SurpriseIncest: [[spoiler:Lamiroir]] asks [[Franchise/AceAttorney Phoenix Wright]] if [[spoiler:Trucy and Apollo]] know that she is their biological mother. Phoenix assures her that he'll tell them when the time is right. Cue them falling in love and getting married.
466-->'''Phoenix:''' ''[during their wedding day]'' Surprise! '''YOU'RE SIBLINGS!''' Pfthahahaha. Man, I got you guys good!
467* SurvivalMantra: Snake's "I'm a tree, I'm a tree, [[RuleOfThree I'm a tree]]..." while hiding from The End.
468* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial:
469-->'''[[AmbiguouslyGay Kanji Tatsumi]]:''' ''[after defeating [[CampGay his shadow]]]'' Okay, I guess you really are me... kinda. But I still don't like dudes.\
470'''[[spoiler:[[{{Bifauxnen}} Naoto Shirogane]]]]:''' Did someone say ''girls''? Because I'm a boy just so you know.
471* TakeAThirdOption: The Protagonist doesn't like his choices of partners.
472-->'''Yosuke:''' By the way... Chie or Yukiko? Which one's your type?\
473'''Chie:''' STEAK STEAK STEAK KUNG FU STEAK!\
474'''Yukiko:''' HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!\
475Chie\
476Yukiko\
477Both\
478>''Can I wait until I have more girls to choose from?''
479* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave:
480** "S-so there's [[VideoGame/Persona3 this guy in a scarf]] at the door and I don't think he's going to go away."
481** Spark Brushel to Valant Gramarye. [[spoiler:It was all part of his plan.]]
482* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Snake is savvy enough to see that things will get pretty annoying.
483-->'''Snake:''' Time to find that Metal--\
484[CALL]\
485'''Snake:''' Oh boy.
486* TemptingFate
487** Volgin doesn't have a sense of irony.
488--->'''Volgin:''' Who's afraid of a little thunder? [[KilledMidSentence It's not like I'm standing on top of a giant metal robot with electricity coursing to my body or somethi--]]
489** Also this:
490--->'''Soldier:''' Oh boy, I hope I don't get shot in the face.\
491'''Ocelot:''' Shot in the face, you say. ''[does so]''\
492'''Soldier:''' OW! Why would you even do that?
493** From ''VideoGame/Persona4'':
494--->'''Narrarator:''' You tried to tell them about [[ItMakesSenseInContext how your TV almost ate you last night]].\
495'''Chie & Yosuke:''' '''PSSHHHHAAAAAW'''\
496'''Yosuke:''' ''HEY CHIE! LET'S GO FIND A TV THIS LOSER CAN JUMP INTO!''\
497'''Chie:''' ''HAHA, I KNOW, RIGHT?''\
498'''Chie and Yosuke:''' [[GilliganCut Hahahaha--]]'''AHHHHHH'''
499* TooDumbToLive: If you're not a main character, chances are better than 90% this is your fate. [[BadNewsInAGoodWay The good news is, you won't even notice!]]
500* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Seems like it between Chie and--
501-->'''Chie:''' STEAAAAAKSTEAKSTEAKSTEAAAAKSTEAKSTEAKSTEAKSTEAAAAAAKSTEAKSTEAK!!!
502* TrrrillingRrrs: Liquid's CatchPhrase, especially in the dub.
503-->'''Liquid:''' '''BRRRRRROTHERRR!'''
504* TheProblemWithPenIsland: Not in the comics themselves, but there are people who will write and/or pronounce the artist's LJ name as "him daisy" rather than "hi, I'm Daisy".
505* {{Troll}}:
506-->'''News anchor:''' Hey, Dojima! Remember [[ThatOneCase that time your WIFE got RUN OVER BY A CAR?]]\
507'''Dojima:''' ''[shatters coffee mug]''\
508''[[RunningGag (And no one ate dinner that night.)]]''
509* TheUnfavorite: [[VideoGame/MetalGear Big Boss]] is rather abusive to Liquid.
510-->'''Liquid:''' FAAAAATHERRRRR! I learned seven languages today!\
511'''Big Boss:''' '''GetOut!'''
512* TropeName: Volgin's "Kuwabara, kuwabara" from ''[=MGS3=]'' is replaced with "[[TooLongDidntDub Obscure Japanese Mythology Reference]]."
513* VerbalTic:
514** Liquid's is significant:
515--->'''Liquid:''' '''BRRRRROOOTHER!'''
516** Sigint in the Broad Spectrum Studios dub tends to end his words with "DAYUM!"
517* {{Wangst}}: In-universe examples:
518** Jack is bad at therapy.
519--->'''Rose:''' Let's talk about your painful past as a child solder, Jack.\
520'''Raiden:''' NO ROSE I ANGST ALONE.
521** "SNAAAKE! I'M GOING TO KEEP WHINING AT YOU UNTIL YOU LIKE IT!"
522*** "You got all the dominant genes and I got all the lame recesive genes and '''WAAAAAAAAAAAA--'''"
523** "ANGST! ANGST! ANGST! ANGST! ANGST! ANGST!"
524*** "Oh sorry, what was that? I couldn't hear you over '''MY TRAGIC PAST!!'''"
525** Most of the ''Persona 4'' motives for the Shadows take on this tone, at least for the main teens. It should be noted that this is invoked by Chie wondering out loud what kind of deep, dark, depressing secrets Yukiko must have to create her vindictive Shadow.
526--->'''Shadow Yosuke:''' Living in the city is pretty dumb!\
527'''Shadow Yukiko:''' I don't like having to inherit my family's business!\
528'''Shadow Kanji:''' (''in a whiny voice'') Everyone at school makes fun of me ''because I like--''[[note]]The italicized parts most likely will become "for being gay", if it's not being interrupted.[[/note]] (Then the actual Kanji interrupts with '''"WOMEN!!"''')
529* WhyWontYouDie: Snake gets frustrated over this
530-->'''Snake:''' Liquid!? Why don't you ever ''die''!?
