Line 20:
* [[Camera Abuse]]: The opening credits end with Krauser II seizing the camera and spinning it violently around to face ... the show's logo.
* [[Chainsaw Good]]: The lead singer of Pipanic Chainsaw. She is all too willing to use it.
* [[Cluster F
* [[Dark World]] / [[Evil Twin]]: Applied to music, as some D.M.C. lyrics happen to be an inverted version of Negishi's lyrics.
* [[Dead Baby Comedy]]
Line 28:
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: From fans of death metal, one minor gripe would be that DMC is not a death metal band at all. Their sound is comparable to post-thrash/[[Groove Metal]] bands like [[Pantera (Music)|Pantera]], [[Sepultura]], [[Soulfly]], Machine Head and [[Lamb of God]] (although with a darker, more onimous feel reminiscent of some modern shock rockers.)
** Not only that, but DMC's image would befit black metal rather than death metal, what with the corpse paint and all. [[Justified Trope|Seeing as the title is a reference to KISS, though...]]
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: "My whipped cream on your face" seems a little... suggestive.
* [[Expy]]: Krauser himself is an expy of Gene Simmons from KISS, though it's likely he is also a reference to heavily image-based metal artists such as Mortiis.
** DMC owe quite a lot to metal band [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seikima-II Seikima II] right down to their mythos and get-up.
Line 35:
* [[Fan Service]]: Negishi's job is basically to be Krauser II, to please the fans. Said fans are mostly really vulgar, to Negishi's dismay.
* [[Gratuitous English]]: DMC's songs are splattered with words like "rape", "kill", or "pig" without care for proper grammar.
** Also, the manager. Coupled with [[Cluster F
* [[I Just Want to Be Normal]]: Negishi actually hates being Krauser II, despite his popularity.
** [[Kafka Komedy]]: And you can bet your hiney he'll never be able to stop with it.
Line 49:
* [[Nakama]]: Played straight with the DMC fans, and hilariously for laughs with scatolo-metal band Deathism/Deazm.
* [[Nobody Poops]]: Averted to hell and back, and used for laughs.
* [[
* [[Non
* [[Now That's Using Your Teeth]]: Krauser knows how to do this, but Negishi recognizes that it's not very good for himself.
* [[On the Next Episode of Catchphrase|On the Next Episode of FUCK!!!]]
Line 56:
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: This trope basically defines the band.
* [[Sentai]]: Krauser ends up crashing a Sentai show in an amusement part. Most people assume it's [[All Part of the Show]], up until the point when he starts harassing the audience.
* [[Sex, Drugs and Rock And Roll]]: Parodied. Negishi is dumped into a world that thrives on this, but it's all [[Played for Laughs]]. Negishi himself is a timid loser, a virgin, and never partakes of anything heavier than sake.
* [[Slice of Life]]: Negishi's.
* [[Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism]]: Played with hilariously.
* [[Super
* [[Suspiciously Apropos Music]]
** Justified in that Negishi is the lyricist, though.
