Crowning Moments of Funny

  • Kaga sends her Battleship prior build, Kana, to be Fubuki's Kohai, making sure Kana knows to say that the reason is that Fubuki is more experienced. Fubuki's response? Get Kana to deliver a Hurricane of Euphemisms to Kaga in response.
    She soon found out though as Kana took a sip of her tea with a thoughtful look on her face. "Fubuki-Sempai was kind of surprised that you suggested her though."
    Eating, Kaga missed Yuudachi raising a phone and pointing the camera towards her. "Oh?"
    Her twin's next words caused her to choke though as Kana crossed her arms and nodded. "Hai, according to Fubuki-Sempai, thanks to Akagi-San you're very experienced and know a lot of things. Like night battles!"
    Around them, most conversations ceased as everyone turned their heads towards the train wreck. Akagi meanwhile had a red face and cleared her throat before speaking in a almost whisper as she glanced to where Amagi and her other sisters were listening in. "Sh-she did... and about night battles?"
    Not having really taken note of the reactions, Kana continued. "That's right, I was sort of interested and asked her to explain a bit later. Fubuki-Sempai said that the two of you practiced a lot at night battles and that the ones that you were involved in together were long, drawn out affairs with lots of explosions as bombs went off inside hulls."
    • To complete Kaga's embarrassment, Amagi and Tosa, not understanding the euphemisms, suggest they join in these "night battles". Then, as the icing on the cake, Zuikaku texts her: '{Hey, Kaga-San, so I just saw the video... going to have your Nee-Chans and Akagi's join you two in night battles, huh? How forward...}'
  • The normal nonmagical swordswoman Kokonae Yae boggling repeatedly at Potter Manor and at magic, finally concluding with her just staring speechlessly when Harry brings out the solid gold gem encrusted antique goblets that his ancestors had commissioned.
  • The Terror Raid on Herrods where Narcissa, Johnston, Cleopatra, and Niobe nearly max out Lucius Malfoy's $100,000 limit Sapphire Chase credit card that he lent Draco. Meanwhile Ehren 'only' puts $17,560 dollars of purchases on her mother's account shopping alongside her cousins for presents for everyone. Neither Colombe nor Lucius are amused when they get word on how much their children just bought (although all is eventually forgiven).
  • Summer revealing her first Abyssal 'children' that she just finished building. The two tugboats were patterned off Victoria's assistant Laura because in Summer's eyes maids and tugboats serve the same role. Meanwhile the two fireboats have freckles like Ron. Bonus points for Victoria cracking up at the sight, causing Passel House to start creaking audibly with her chuckles.
  • Kyoshu finally finding a mizuchi in Yodogawa who was searching for a Goldfish. Hilarity ensues and then Yodogawa gets the best prize possible when the father of her daughter is returned to her reborn as a mizuchi by Shiromizu and Ryuujin.
  • Porta's epic "The Reason You Suck" Speech to City Consuming Princess ending (after listing all of Porta's gambits playing her fellow Abyssal for a fool) with the Troll Song on loop.
  • The official debut of Argalia and Melissia, the lance of sword of Astolfo, had them crash through the window of the Head Boy's/Head Girl's quarters instead of taking the door like a normal person. Completely nonchalant even as the Armory and Sunny the Battleship Water Demon prepared to kill them if they made one false move.
    • After Joyeuse confirmed that they weren't a threat, they revealed the reason it took them three weeks to arrive, as opposed to the two days it should have taken, was because they wanted to bake Harry a cake. So naturally, they visited the realm of The Fair Folk for ingredients, culminating in raiding the Summer Court's kitchen and then baking the cake in said kitchen. And because they didn't want to get their clothes covered with flour, Titania may have seen the twins in a Naked Apron as they baked the cake.
      • Needless to say that having a blatant expy of The Nasuverse iterations of Astolfo and Jeanne D’Arc in the same place can and will lead to a certain scene getting reenacted, and it did.
  • If you've ever watched those episodes of Family Guy where Peter more or less tells his family the story of the Original Trilogy of Star Wars albeit flavored with all the Characters of Family Guy, although the producers had to dip into American Dad! and The Cleveland Show since they already went through their own cast of Major and Supporting Characters already. But anyway, the funny thing is that, by the time Harry is about 200 or so (and looking very good for his age) Jedi's apparently a religion
  • Harry and Hoppou's chase around Yokosuka. It's very Scooby Doo-ish, and involves Harry in his Tiangou form being chased by Hoppou for dumping her with teaching her granddaughters the 'facts of life' without any warning. Multiple references are used too, including an actual appearance from Scooby and Shaggy. Eventually drags in several others before ending with Harry somehow finding his way into Iku's hull when he crashed muzzle first into her 'fuel tanks'.
  • As part of her plot to get into Draco's pants (that has a -9,001+% chance of working) Kamilla made a Infernal Pact with Sitri to make her Step-Mom barren, Send Demons to torment Pansy's Dreams, and to make Draco her own. While the first one went flawlessly, the second one might not work, and as for the third one well.......let's just say that the Succubus sent there is far out of her depth given that her target is quite protected and then there's all the other people who could easily shitstomp her into oblivion. Needless to say, people have made her situation to be quite comedic.
    • Notably happens when she first lays eyes on the Divine Champions. Sensing Neville Longbottom's capability and abilities for extreme levels of applied violence panics her. Then she wets herself with fear upon realizing that her assigned target Draco Malfoy is a powerful Champion... who has another Divine Champion in Ehren du Chasteler visibly head over heels for him. But the capper in this Humiliation Conga is when she faints dead away in gibbering terror from shock and fright upon first seeing... Ronald Bilius Weasley, Champion of Davey Jones! (Yes, neither the Norse berserker, the resident Chessmaster and his lethal and overly protective Girl Friday, nor even Harry Potter was able to send Urzaad over the edge — but realizing that Ron is Chosen by a Primordial Deity....)
  • A little dark compared to the usual shenanigans. But Ocean Liner Demon's Dämonentrüpen are always guaranteed a giggle with their very positive outlook of war. It helps that their battles quickly turn into Zerg Rushes the longer they go and the fact that they can't actually die. In summary, they wouldn't feel out of place next to Abridged!Alucard and friends.
  • An extremely drunk Arizona turning into "Magical Battleship Girl Ari-Chan, First Magical Girl of the Fleet" after a hostile yokai interrups her bar crawl
    "DONUT! FAIRY! TRANSFORMATION! MAGIC!"
  • Tony playing ''Flight of the Bumblebee'' for Claire shortly after meeting her without realizing how that musical piece factors into her fantasies of married life with him. He's attempting to impress her with his musical talents after she scored a point on him by playing Vivaldi, and instead gets much more than her bargained for....
    With that Ehren glanced over to Claire, expecting to see her big sister enthralled as usual by the family guest violinist - who was going to be just family once Mother got with the program.

    Ehren did not expect to see Claire's reaction to the piece.

    Her sister was actually experiencing full body uncontrolled shivers as she bit her lip and whimpered, her fists clenching spasmodically. Her face had a nuclear blush on it and her eyes were locked on Tony with raw passion and desire filling them as he played. It was clear she was on the ragged edge of throwing Tony to the floor to have her way with him.

    Ehren's own eyes widened in shock as she put two and two together and realized that Mother was just across the hall in her study while Claire was... was....

    Scheiße!

    As Tony approached the end of the piece, Ehren leaned close to her sister and hissed "I'll cover for you, run! Now!"

    Claire gave a shaky nod and bolted for the door to the music room like a scalded cat.

    Tony finished the piece and opened his eyes as the running footsteps faded down the hall. He gave Ehren a baffled "what did I do?!?" look as Claire's bedroom door slammed in the distance. Colombe opened her study door and leaned out to see what the commotion was about.

    Ehren plastered her best controlled face on and spoke. "Impressive, Tony, I see that the Flight of the Bumblebee stung Claire with an idea for a new composition and she desires privacy to work on it before she can serenade the household with it."

    Ehren's eyes found Tony and gave him a "back my story up or I'll kill you slowly" look as the confused Stradivarius made a sound of agreement.

    Colombe looked at the two of them and shrugged. "Ahh, one of those days for her then."
  • Jackie teaching Ehren how to 'drive like a pirate'. The ensuing two weeks of shenanigans include voluntary kidnapping of a Butter Dagger, trolling Colombe with 'Your Ehren is in Another Castle' notes, identity fraud, automobile theft of a drug dealer's luxury SUV, and the use of one of the premier combat driving schools in the world.
  • Angband playing against type as the Rich Bitch 'ETERNALLY Sunlit Imperial Viceregine Armored Carrier Princess' to lure the Getek Massacre Demon into a brutal ambush during Operation UNDERTOW.
  • Claire's reaction to Colombe meeting Summer for the first time. Colombe is about to pull steel on Summer to defend Claire (thanks to not being totally briefed in that the Abyssal princess holding Claire in her lap is a friendly Moe Blob) and the rest of the spectators are gearing up to intervene when Claire notices, leading to Mother being guilted into playing a duet piece by a Russian composer that she dislikes to make amends.
    Claire gave her mother a pout and upset stare that made several of the Passel House contingent melt a little at the sight of the adorably angry kitten looking at her mother.

    Her gentle melodic voice spoke with disappointment that caused Colombe to visibly wince as the piano kept playing. "Not during Liszt, Mother! You made me miss a sixteenth note during my favorite variation on the Cadenza!"

    She puffed out her cheeks and played a major chord that expressed disapproval as she continued to play free-form Liszt variations for her Cadenza. "And you scared my new friend too! Ooooooo!!"

    Colombe blushed, slid the rapier back into her sheath, and took her hand off the hilt. "I am sorry; I was shocked and not expecting Miss... Um...."

    Claire spoke in her gentle voice with a tone of velvety annoyance it in it. "Summer, Mother. She's nice and sweet and I'm teaching her how to piano." The aforementioned Abyssal peeked out from behind Claire to survey the sheepish-looking rapier.
  • The reactions from the gate guards and repair shipgirl at Brooklyn Navy Yard to the aftermath of Mika's night out in New York City:
    The Marine gate guards stared in shock and awe at the sight of the shipgirl of USS Lakotah steaming toward them.

    The shipgirl had a severed arm — clearly hers — slung over her shoulder with her remaining hand, and an ear-to-ear smug grin.

    The cherry on this scene was Mika's speakers playing The Clash's punk rock hit cover of one of the '500 Songs That Shaped Rock & Roll' while the shipgirl sang the lyrics joyfully, energetically, and a bit off key.

    "I fought the law and'a the law won
    I fought the law and'a the law won"​

    One of them spoke in awe as Mika sauntered past them en-route to the repair baths. "That must have been some shore leave tonight, Ma'am...."
  • The Malfoy Family getting deniable revenge on Cormac McLaggen via a temporary male-to-female sex change potion, paired with Nimue secretly taking her brother's place over Valentine's Weekend so Draco can sneak out to have a romantic date with his true loves and propose to HMS Cleopatra. Cue the public debut of 'Pretty Princess Draco-chan'!
  • Nassau getting accidentally rammed by Yobbo the Abyssal Submarine during Operation UNDERTOW. Hilarity Ensues.
  • Lucius Malfoy getting royally drunk on century-old five-star Russian brandy with Arthur Weasley.
    "Capital old chap, capital!" Lucius took a large swig of the now-refreshed brandy. "Nothing else today, Goyle! Be a good chap and buy a little something for the missus!" Lucius fished in his pockets, came out with a handful of Galleons, and handed them to the shocked valet. "Arthur can keep me company!"

    Arthur desperately wanted to be anywhere but keeping this strange version of Lucius Malfoy company. "Um, so, Lucius. Your cousin married a Nazi?" He said after casting about to find a semi-safe subject and taking a very small sip of his (admittedly excellent) brandy.
