Another Death Note Abridged Series, Death Note: The Abridged Series by 1KidsEntertainment, is a pretty funny ongoing (so far 21 episodes and two holiday specials) series on YouTube.
Tropes used in Death Note: The Abridged Series (1KidsEntertainment) include:
Light: Could I have been Kira before? I mean I do think that criminals deserve to die and killing them off would create a more perfect world where I could be a God... but that doesn't necessarily mean that I could be Kira... No definitely not...
Light: You're thinking I could become L and Kira at the same time... that I could eat unlimited candy and play with my bare feet while I kill people! It's IDEAL!!!
L: I'm taking out the part where it says "you're free to kill L." Light: Really? I think it adds a sense of realism to it. L: It's definitely being taken out. Beat Light: ...Damn it.
Light: It's not that I don't want to be more than just friends with L but I don't want to ruin our friendship, ya'know? Namikawa: Yeah, I know, I've been there.
Soichiro (To Matsuda): "God d*mn, son of a b*tch, motherf*cking c*cksucker!" Matsuda: "What's wrong?" Soichiro: "Oh, nothing's wrong, I just wanted to make it clear that I was talking to you."
L: Could you kill someone for me? Light: Do you... have the money? ...Show me the money L: Show me the weapon... Okay there isn't any money, I was just trying to trick you. Light: Good thing I didn't fall for that.
Light: Misa, we need your help to rescue Matsuda. Would you mind dressing up all slutty for us? Misa: What does slutty mean? Light: Misa, we need your help to rescue Matsuda. Would you mind wearing your normal outfits?
Ooi: Any objections to making the Giants lose by killing them mid-game? The Yotsuba Eight: No objections. Soichirou: Woops, there goes your college tuition, Light.
Wedy: Hey L, I was searching Higuchi's place like you asked me to and I found this weird black notebook in his safe... L: We're already aware of Higuchi's desire to be an artist; don't bother us again.
Namikawa: "Anyway... don't worry, we bribed the police into not trying to catch Kira. There's no way that's going to tip them off that Kira is involved with our business." (fade into next scene) Light: "So Kira is involved with their business..."
And again in that episode:
Soichiro: "Like it or not, you cannot both pursue Kira and be a member of the police anymore." Matsuda: "What makes you say that?" (flashback) F.B.I. Director: "Like it or not, you cannot both pursue Kira and be a member of the police anymore."
L: (to Aizawa) No one's making you stay. Whatever phrasing you want to use... run, scoot, skedaddle... just go. Watari: Sir, might I make a suggestion... How about "Piss off!" L: Ooh yeah. I really like that one. Piss off!
Higuchi: "It's like I said last time: Kira can kill people with a magical notebook, but he can't do the impossible." Midou: "Wait, magical notebook?" Higuchi: "Nooooot it. No tagbacks."
Kida: I really need someone to talk to. My cat died and my wife left me and took the kids and she gave me AIDS... Aiber: That's cool. Oh by the way, did you know Misa might be the Second Kira?
Also: Light: Misa, Higuchi is dangerous! I forbid you from seeing again- Misa: Okay, I'm off to see Higuchi, bye! Beat Light: ...I hate women. L:I'm pretty sure that was already understood, Light.
The Not-Secret: 1) that Light is Kira. 2) that Light is lusting after L.
L: If there is a God, he totally hates me. Light: Damn straight I do.
Somebody Else's Problem: "And in this footage you can see various pedestrians that clearly don't give a $#!t that somebody near them just collapsed and died."
L: Watari, is she talking? Watari:She neverstopstalking! L:... I see what you mean. Watari, please shut her up!
On the way the plot itself is written:
L: Well, if you haven't noticed this pattern by now, every time the plot goes stale, the writer just adds in another character.
Talking to Himself: 1kids voices Ryuk, L, several minor characters, and Light for the first five episodes, and Salguy voices Soichiro, Aizawa, and Ukita
Mogi: MISA-MISA, THIS IS AN INFILTRATION MISSION, SO BE CAREFUL! Ooi: What's he talking about? Mogi: DON'T BLOW OUR COVER! (Am I forgetting anything?) OH YEAH, L WANTED ME TO TELL YOU THE BUG IS IN YOUR PURSE! BE SURE TO OPEN IT OR WE CAN'T HEAR YOU!
