YMMV / Vocational Death Cruise

Go To

  • Broken Base: Participation of AskTheCrusaders. On the one hand, there are many people who don't like the darker turn the blog has taken and wants it to return to answering questions in-character. On the other hand, there are also many people who are curious to see where it's going and would like the creator to continue.
    • The artist took note of said complaints, which led to a sort-of compromise- they're still participating, but the Crusaders also take time to answer some questions.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: A few years after the semi-failed "Super Sentai" Stance in Day 7, the very first episode of the official Super Sentai parody Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger had a very similar scenario.
    • Wing Ace finishing off the Oblivion Machine by being tossed also predates the infamous "Wife Toss" moment in the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic season 3 premiere, where Shining Armor threw Princess Candace at King Sombra to retrieve the Crystal Heart, which while not killing Sombra instantaneously, did subsequently lead to his destruction.
  • Nightmare Fuel: With each new day, the "vacation" gets progressively more disturbing. For example, day three had Flutterguy suddenly undergoing Demonic Possession and nearly killing Ace and Vanilla, all while madly babbling about eating their flesh.
    • Stoner Spike's elimination raises some rather disturbing questions. Is the entire cruise a dream? If so, how are so many people and ponies experiencing the exact same dream? What is Santalestia's role in it, and whats her ultimate plot? And perhaps most importantly, if it is all a dream, what will happen to the ones who make it all the way to the end?
  • Tear Jerker: Sweetie Belle of AskTheCrusaders' utter heartbreak over losing her fur and mane.
    • Also from AskTheCrusaders, Apple Bloom being completely terrified of Scootaloo after the pegasus-turned-unicorn accidentally blasted her with magic during a temper tantrum.
    • Discorded Whooves' futile attempt to defeat the Horror.
