Death Note the Abridged Series (Team Dattebayo)

"L: I believe Kira's in Japan, so I'll be asking for your assistance. Soichiro: And why Japan? L: Because all anime characters come from Japan. Don't be a stupid asshole."

A popular Death Note Abridged Series was created by Team Dattebayo. It features popular abridgers such as Lanipator and Hbi 2 k in some of their episodes. One of the Voice Actors was even featured in an episode of Hbi2k's Gantz The Abridged Series.

In this series, rather than trying to kill all the criminals in the world, Light is killing off other anime characters, in order to become the most popular. Meanwhile, the taskforce thinks Matsuda is Kira.

"Rem (to Gelus): I think we should just be friends."
 * Abusive Parents: "I should wring your neck right here and now!"
 * Bad Boss: Light is really mean to Rem.
 * Basement Dweller: L ("You mean this isn't just a clever ruse to get us to hang out with you?"), Matsuda ("Dammit Mom, I'm 25, I'll come home when I feel like it!").
 * Berserk Button: "We're out of cake."
 * Better as Friends:

"L: This is for locking up [Light] my buddy!""
 * Big Bad Friend:

"Matsuda: Heh, look at him, pretending not to be Kira. He's probably trying to kill me with his mind, right now."
 * Black Comedy Rape
 * Bullying a Dragon:

"L: Hey Light, you all right? We remembered to feed him, right guys?"
 * Butt Monkey: Matsuda
 * Captain Obvious: "Fun Fact: The Death Note can be used to kill people!"
 * Christmas Special
 * Clueless Detective: L flat out states that he bases his assumptions on absolutely nothing, and decides who to suspect on a whim. If Light is to be believed, at one point L was convinced that Kira was a bowl of rainbow sherbet. He only announces that Light is a suspect to have an excuse to get closer to him, and later to punish him for not answering his text messages.
 * Comedic Sociopathy:

"L: (to Light) * cough* "last night" * cough*"
 * Cosmopolitan Council: "We're really doing the Coalition of Evil thing?"
 * Cough-Snark-Cough

"Ryuk: Dude no wonder you have so many problems. Light: * Heh,* What problems?"
 * Cut and Paste Translation
 * Disproportionate Retribution: Light and Misa don't want to go to McDonald's with Soichiro, so he decides to shoot them.
 * Dirty Old Man: Watari, the joke about tying Misa up.
 * Domestic Abuse: Soichiro hits Sachiko as a punishment for speaking during dinner, sells Sayu into medical experimentation, tells Light he's not his son and tries to kill him for refusing to go to McDonald's with him.

"Ryuk (to Light): You're a monster, you know that?"
 * Double Standard Abuse (Female on Male): "Aizawa, your wife hits you? This is serious." Actually, this seems more like an subversion to this trope because when Mr. Yagami said the previous quote, he sounded concerned about Aizawa. Also, none of the abuse Aizawa gets from his wife is portrayed as comedic or justified. It's pretty obvious that she's not a nice person, especially when she verbally abuses him in front of their children. Furthermore, Aizawa uses the "She hits me because she loves me/it's my fault" excuse that people in abusive relationships often use.
 * Even Evil Has Standards:

"L [to Aizawa]: Ukita died two minutes ago. You need to move on."
 * Faking the Dead: the Smash to Black Cliff Hanger
 * Forgotten Fallen Friend: "Who's Ukita?"
 * Invoked by L in the very episode in which Ukita died:

"Souichiro: You bastards'll never bring me down! (cut to confinement scene)... shit."
 * Fun T-Shirt: Light bought Ryuk a t-shirt at Spaceland.
 * Gilligan Cut:

"L: Mello, what are you doing out of the basement?!"
 * Good News, Bad News: "The bad news is I spent all our savings on a Game Station 3 the good new is I sold our daughter into medical experimentation so we don't have to clear out of the house."
 * Hilariously Abusive Childhood:

"Light: It's OK, dad. The important thing is you tried."
 * Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: Soichiro shoots Light in his face at point-blank range and still manages to miss.

"Ryuk: Is this really the best idea? Burrying the notebook in the forest? Light: Of course it's the best idea, or I wouldn't have had it."
 * Insufferable Genius: Light certainly has the attitude.

"Light: What are you, are you a detective?! Or are you just a faggot? L: Why do I have to choose?"
 * Insult Backfire: Kind of.

"Matsuda: Can I have my phone back, please? L: I think you know the answer to that."

 * It Doesn't Mean Anything
 * It Meant Something to Me

 * Invisible to Gaydar: Light and L.
 * Suicide as Comedy
