Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS/Funny

Season 1

 * Pigeon referring to Frog by his real name in Episode 3 while both were in Link VRAINS.
 * Ignis attempts to escape by corrupting Yusaku's cleaning robot, but finds it isn't smart enough to listen to him.
 * Ai convinced the cleaning robot to do... something that sounds suspiciously like the robot is getting Ai off.
 * Kusanagi and Ignis poking fun at Yusaku for being unable to talk to women.'
 * Revolver calling Ignis too conceited for an AI. What makes this funnier is that Revolver used the exact skill Ignis developed and despite Ignis' protest, Revolver is right about Ignis, he really is conceited.
 * After Ignis is restored from being nearly deleted, he tries to get up-to-date with the duel.
 * -->Ignis: Whoa! You have an [incredible monster]!
 * -->Ignis: Whoa! He has an [incredible monster] too!
 * -->Ignis: Gulp! His incredible dragon took our incredible dragon!
 * At the end of #12, Ai displays a new power in the real world, causing Yusaku's Duel Disk to crackle; its glass surface to melt and golden light to shine out, leaving Yusaku and Kusanagi horrified as his body starts to form...only to reveal his body is tiny and the two humans in the room could not care less and are more interested in learning about Hanoi. Upon being completely ignored the episode ends with the newly revived Ai screaming "Dude, Where's My Respect?!"
 * After being left with Roboppy for annoying Yusaku too much in #13, Ai decides to show off his body by flexing for her, even making himself look like a bodybuilder as spotlights shine from behind him.
 * Episode 15
 * Ai continues to be the Plucky Comic Relief, where he rather unconvincingly feigns fear at losing, at one point even replicating the Caramelldansen Vid! Ghost Girl isn't falling for it though, and even calls him an idiot.
 * After catching Playmaker beat Ghost Girl, Pigeon and Frog are overjoyed that they have data for their Playmaker expose, only to find Ghost Girl deleted their file, leaving behind a clip of herself in a seductive pose while apologising.
 * Episode 16
 * Aoi's Oh Crap reaction and shock when Ghost Girl casually addressed her after she had been eavesdropping on the meeting with Akira.
 * Playmaker never emoting while the opponent destroys his hand and backs him a corner, while Ignis overreacts, culminating in Ignis asking if Yusaku is actually an AI.
 * Episode 18
 * One of Kitamura's subordinates complains and asks another one how many times they are going to get fired.
 * When "Tindangle Hound" roared as its effect activated Ai then complains to Playmaker that he is feeling duel sick only for Playmaker to tell him be quiet
 * Episode 20
 * Despite being a very serious episode Ai still continues to be a Plucky Comic Relief providing nice sense of humpr
 * When "Security Gardna" prevented the damage, Ai then boasts that thanks to his good acting skills Akira got fooled easily only for Playmaker to remind him thanks to his bad acting Akira figures out what he is planning causing Ai to react in shock and claim he will never win The Best acting award for best Ai
 * Episode 21
 * Ai can't remember Ghost Girl's user name, and calls her Gokie Girl. The Image Spot of Ghost Girl doing a sexy pose gets mad.
 * Ai's predicament of being in the hands of the scary Playmaker◊, as seen from Ai's totally objective perspective.
 * Yusaku's cold personality, depicted in the most adorable way possible.
 * Kitamura's epic Jaw Drop moment when Baira and Faust swiftly wreck the majority of his AI Duelists.
 * When Doctor Genome remarks that Ai has been effectively domesticated by Playmaker, Ai doesn't really fair well in trying to debunk it.
 * Episode 27 gives Naoki A Day in the Limelight. It couldn't end up as anything but funny:
 * The fantasies Naoki has through the episode about Playmaker need to be seen to be believed
 * While dueling with a Knight of Hanoi both of them start with dead hands. The ensuing bluffs from both parties are what really sells it.
 * Naoki struggles to understand what his new card does. Eventually his Duel Disk's AI has to explain it for him.
 * Apparently, Roboppy has, on Ai's orders, modified Yusaku duel disk so that it can function as a drone.
 * Ai has a funny interaction with Ghost Girl while they are in Link Vrains' underground sewer area, complete with a cameo from the old "Fake Trap" card.
 * A boy masquerading as Playmaker confronts Frog and Pigeon, mistaking the pair for Knights of Hanoi, and attempts to engage them in a Duel. Flabbergasted, Frog arbitrarily speculates that the child is actually an old man in the real world, but at the same time, he and Pigeon are moved by the child's dedication to protect LINK VRAINS.
 * Spectre is indeed Nightmare Fuel for loving the same project that broke Yusaku; but there's still something humorous about a man who was essentially raised by a tree.
 * Albeit Harsher in Hindsight due to the implication (especially when Playmaker destroyed it later on), there's something funny in Ai going along with Spectre's absurd backstory and keeps calling Spectre's ace monster as his "mother".
 * The terrifying trap that Ghost Girl warned Yusaku about? It's MIRROR FORCE.
 * At the climax of Go vs Revolver Go summons Gouki The Giant Ogre. And when it power ups with effects, the animation is shown as pulling out a giant sword from the ground. Ai is so impressed by this that it imitates it by pulling out a knife from somewhere and cheering.
 * In episode 42, Ai went all out to protect Playmaker so he can do Storm Access. There's just something funny about Ai saying good-bye afterwards, only to reappear shrunk later on.
 * In episode 45 a flashback to the peaceful Cyberse World is shown. It's divided into 6 areas each created by the 6 Ignis representing each attribute. An ocean (WATER), mountains (EARTH), a gold city (LIGHT), a volcano (FIRE) and a forest (WIND). As for DARK... it's also mentioned that Ai was the only lazy one. There's just a giant dark hole.

 * In the same episode, Frog and Pigeon made a Japanese pun joke regarding the word "hato"note and "kaeru"note.

Season 2
Apparently Flame named himself Flame, because in kanji it means "indomitable soul dream" and says that it's a cool name unlike someone's cutesy name. Yusaku frowns
 * Episode 47
 * While Ai seeing the state of the Cyberse World and seeing that Linkuriboh is the Sole Survivor is mostly Tear Jerker, it's still funny that Ai says that he can't understand Linkuriboh, because all Linkuriboh can say is "Kurikurilink".
 * Before that he tries to call for other Survivors and says that it's him Ai, but he then realizes that they don't know his name, because Yusaku gave it to him.
 * While it's a serious and emotional talk between Shoichi and his brother Jin, it's still funny to know that Shoichi lives inside the hotdog truck he and Yusaku use as a base and that he tries to convince Jin to live with him inside of it.
 * Blood Shepherd hunts Playmaker to claim his bounty. Playmaker tells him that he doesn't have the Ignis anymore and that he doesn't need to hunt him, but...
 * Blood Shepherd: Then what's that?
 * Playmaker: Huh? (Looks at his duel disk)
 * Ai on Linkuriboh on Playmaker's Duel Disk: Sorry, Playmaker. I came back.
 * After that Playmaker asks Ai why he is here. Ai tries to give a brief explanation, but Playmaker then tells him to save it for later. Instead of feeling down as usual whenever he does that, Ai feels happy knowing that Playmaker hasn't changed a bit and that it feels like the good old times again also doubles as Heartwarming.
 * Episode 48
 * As Playmaker sets up the tools he needs to Ritual Summon, Ai wears a shaman head while stirring a pot of potions chanting Due-Due-Duel, sounding very similar to the english opening of the original Yu-Gi-Oh! season.
 * Episode 49
 * After Soulburner defeats BitBoot, Flame says that he knew that they were no match for them. Only for Soulburner to tell him that earlier he said that it was all over for him.
 * Bit and Boot's final words to each other are "You are fired!". Cue Haru dismissing the pair by setting them alight on fire.
 * Episode 50
 * Ai is locked up again in Yusaku's Duel Disk. Yusaku gives him three reasons why he did it.
 * 1: Kusanagi is emotionally hurt because his brother's consciousness was stolen. It's good to have someone he can talk to who knows our situation.
 * 2: The attack on your homeworld and on Kusanagi's brother troubles me. And their Teammates wanted an Ignis. You may be linked to this incident.
 * 3: And this is the Most Important. Being a hostage suits you.
 * According to Flame, Brave Max is also known as Playmaker's best friend.
 * Yusaku wants to go somewhere where there's information about their enemy, but it's probably a trap laid out for him. As usual Ai doesn't want to go. With more people added to their crew (Takeru Homura and Flame) he decides to hold a majority vote to make it fair. As expected only Ai himself votes not to go.
 * Episode 51
 * Soulburner asks Flame what GO's strategies are. Flame jokes and says that "he'll "go go" and attack.", because his name is Go Onizuka. Soulburner's reaction to this is priceless.◊
 * Episode 53
 * When Blood Shepherd restores Playmaker's lifepoints to avert Storm Access, Ai begs him to keep the life points the way one might react to an unwanted gift.
 * Episode 56
 * While Soulburner was in a disadvantage during his duel with Blue Girl, Flame encourages him by saying that he still has one huge advantage: himself as an excellent AI partner that will hlelp bloom his dormant abilities. Soulburner asks in detail what he can do for him. With a grin Flame says he'll be a compassionate observer from up close. Soulburner rejects it.
 * Episode 60
 * If you're looking for an action-packed duel between Ghost Girl and Brave Max...well...the title of the episode is "Brave Max, the Loser" after all. Brave Max makes several amateur mistakes during his duel, most notably sacrificing his 2 2600 ATK Green Baboons for a single 2600 ATK Metal Baboon, all because he didn't bother to check and see if Link Monsters were immune to bounce (return to the hand) effects, and simply assumed they were based on mechanics.
 * During the first half of the duel, Ghost Girl and Blue Girl were under the assumption that Brave Max was a duelist that Playmaker personally chose as an ally. So Ghost Girl tests his skills with a basic field and even explains to watch out for Altergeist Silquitous's Effect to see how he will counter it. Then for most of Brave Max's turn, they try to take his amateur moves super seriously and assume it was part of some strategy beyond their understanding.
 * After Ghost Girl wins, she and Blue Girl agree the duel was a waste of time. And Blue Girl still has to go to her own event she setup to lure Brave Max. Brave Max on the other hand cries about his loss and vows to become stronger for Playmaker's sake and promptly forgets about it all after he remembers the Blue Angel event.
 * While it may not be as funny as the "duel". The sheer amount of Dramatic Irony in the conversation about Playmaker's identity between Akira, Emma and Aoi makes it unintentionally funny despite it being a serious conversation between them.
 * Such as Akira saying that Playmaker's personality and speech may be different in real life than in LINK VRAINSnote.
 * Aoi replies that a person't true nature doesn't change and that they should know if he's nearbynote.
 * Episode 61
 * When Takeru first heard of "LINK VRAINS" and "Playmaker", he thought they were "Link Brains" and "Playmater".
 * Takeru had to ask his friend Kiku how to scroll down on her tablet, highlighting his Hopeless with Tech side.
 * While it was part of a trauma, there is something unintentionally funny about how Takeru's trauma involves a 2800 ATK monster whose sole effect is a ridiculously specific self Special Summon effect that is almost unlikely to ever happen, meaning it is vulnerable to every single form of removal in the game. In fact, the self Special Summon effect is so specific that Takeru's opponent prefer to Special Summon it using another card's effect instead.
 * Not to mention, while he might not have it as a child, he now has, and currently control, Phoenix Gearfried, an equally strong 2800 ATK monster, along with Valkyrian Knight, which would redirect attack to her, saving Phoenix Gearfried.
 * Episode 64
 * While Yusaku is in school Ai is flying in the Duel Disk enjoying the view. Then he’s called by Kusanagi for something nice. Next scene he’s unhappy that a menu got tied to the disk and was told to do 10 laps around the city.
 * Then he’s distracted by Takeru coming here alone and hits a pole then falls on to Takeru’s head.
 * Flame is curious that free Duel Disks can fall out of the sky in Den City until Ai explains that he can fly. (Ai-chan fly!) Flame suggests that his own Duel Disk could be given wheels, which actually is an entire car in his imagination.
 * A meta funny, in his flashback duel, Yusaku is beating the Knights of Hanoi with a starter deck.
 * Episode 65
 * In episode 64, Naoki made it seem like he knew Yusaku's secret, to the point Yusaku complied with Naoki's demands to go to a secret place to talk. In episode 65, Naoki revealed what the secret was...only that it was not the one Yusaku was concerned with—or even knew was supposed to be a secret.
 * Naoki: "I know your secret."
 * Naoki: Smirks "Hey, Playmaker...is my soulmate, right? And since you're my best friend, you should feel proud too!"
 * Yusaku: Still frowning "What do you want to talk about?"
 * Naoki: Smirks again "I know you have a part-time job."
 * Yusaku looks confused and tilts his head to the side
 * Naoki: "I saw you working at the hot dog stand. The school forbids working part-time jobs, but I'm not so petty to snitch on you. However..." Postcards suddenly materialize "Help me fill out postcards to enter Blue Angel's handshake event—"
 * Yusaku walks away, disinterested
 * Naoki: "Hey! Fujiki!" Crashes through the door "I'll snitch you out to Playmaker!"
 * Naoki threatening to snitch Yusaku out to Playmaker, aka himself.
 * Episode 66
 * Ai talks about the other three Ignis after Playmaker asks about them. He talks about the Water Ignis and says that she relied on him a lot and was in love with him, while the flashback shows him hitting on her, causing her to hit him and Linkuriboh into the ground.
 * He talks about the Earth Ignis. He tries to remember what he was like, and suddenly, a record scratch in the background is heard as he drags an AI that looks just like the Earth Ignis, massive and orange, only to find out that the AI is the Earth Ignis.
 * Earth has No Social Skills Up to Eleven, emphasized by his Catchphrase.
 * Earth: I am socially awkward.
 * A meta example, but the idea that Earth, The Spock that's heavily socially awkward, is implied to be Spectre's Ignis. And Earth is heavily implied to be in love with Aqua, the Water Ignis, whose appearance, for some reason, resembles Blue Angel, the very same character that Spectre hates.
 * Ai's memory of the Earth Ignis isn't so great. Playmaker calls him out on it and Ai just replies that he's....socially awkward.
