* [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]]: When Reuben Kee died, the entire community basically forgot their differences to collectively pay their respects to him. Yes, you read that right. His death was able to BRING [[Broken Base|THE MUGEN COMMUNITY]] TOGETHER. Seeing all of these conflicting people, a good number of them otherwise very cynical and snarky, basically laying their issues aside to remember Reu in a serious manner. And no one community did this, practically ''every'' MUGEN forum was buzzing with love at the time.

* [[Did Not Do the Research]]/[[They Just Didn't Care]]: Some characters may gain moves that they normally cannot or do not use in their source game/series; for instance, [[Street Fighter|Gouken]], a [[Martial Pacifist]], using the [[One Hit Kill|deadly]] [[Dangerous Forbidden Technique|Shun Goku Satsu]].

* [[Fan Hater]]: EvilSlayerX5 is apparently one against all things Capcom and SNK, if not the fighting game genre in general.

* [[Follow the Leader]]: Most [[Egregious]] example would be Reuben Kee's Evil Ryu and Evil Ken, who kickstarted the still-alive trend of [[Evil Counterpart]] edits to them and to other characters, [[Sturgeons Law|most of which aren't very good]].

* [[Its Popular Now It Sucks]]: It's not uncommon among veteran MUGEN creators (and sometimes those who discovered the engine in it's earlier days as well) to think that, for all its flaws, the MUGEN community used to be a better place before [[YouTube]] brought the [[Newbie Boom]].

** An unknown character called [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCjz8AzSlic "Chaos"](LucasX3 in earlier versions) fits this trope well, with said character being filled with ear-raping sound effects from La=Gooth, and generally mediocre gameplay.

* [[Pandering to The Base]]: A lot of known people in the community with [[YouTube]] accounts occasionally do this; for instance, Arpa created a contest to see who could best emulate his video style. Zigg4d's entry was voted to be the most downright chilling and perfect performance.

* [[So Bad Its Good]]: Bebum Ryo. This ridiculous edit of [[Art of Fighting|Ryo Sakazaki]] has a [[Rapid Fire Fisticuffs|Zanretsuken]] that does insane amounts of hits, combos that should never be possible, hair resembling that of an 80s glam rocker, and '''FATALITIES'''. One of his intros is about a minute long, featuring him getting [[Groin Attack|punched in the nuts]] by Johnny Cage, who is in turn chased down by Shao Kahn. And that's just the beginning.

** RicePigeon released Primeus aka Gay Bahamut, who's essentially a parody of "retarded" characters. The end result is something that's [[So Bad Its Good]]. And hilarious to boot. While RicePigeon did strive for a "King of Retarded Characters" type, he managed to not overkill Primeus which made him somewhat a decent foe.

* [[Special Effect Failure]]: If not created correctly, characters or their effects can have bizarre color schemes, appear in the wrong places, or generally not work.

* [[Stop Having Fun Guys]]: Mostly in the shape of [[Fan Dumb|SNK extremists]], who still declare that the only good fighting games were those made by SNK on its glory days and will put down (most of the time, violently) people who use characters from doujin games or with new-generation mechanics. This is not to deny the doujin side of its share of meanies, either-- a lot of them seem to really hate the characters of [[The DCU]], the [[Flash]] and [[Superman (Comic Book)|Superman]] being prime victims, and fans of DC Comics sometimes come under fire as a result.

* [[They Just Didn't Care]]: Many "retarded" characters, which tend to have hideous spritework, stiff animation, terrible hitboxes, graphical errors, crappy movesets, or any combination thereof.

* [[What Do You Mean Its Not Awesome]]: Very well-made and innovative characters get these kinds of moments. Also, sometimes fight scenes will inexplicably pull out a surprise [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]]. Actually, we could probably attribute this trope to the whole concept of M.U.G.E.N. itself.

** Anytime someone pulls off a [[Street Fighter|Shun Goku Satsu]], it's usually a crowd-pleaser, especially if it's used to finish the match. Rare Akuma does it to dance music, and it is both hilarious and awesome at the same time.

** Giji Rare Akuma extends his jukebox to include ''Caramelldansen'', a portion of the ''1812 Overture'', ''300 THIS IS SPARTA Remix'', and even the ''Rickroll''. And even then, he ups the ante even more by bringing in Orochi skull pillars and (older version only) the sound of [[Jo Jos Bizarre Adventure (Manga)|Jotaro Kujo and Dio Brando]] shouting ''ORAORA/MUDAMUDA'' while he continues to pummel the helpless victim. Later updates added the AWESOME face to the Orochi skull pillars, the [[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|"BONK!"]], the inclusion of the wrecked Statue of Liberty from [[Planet of the Apes]], and much, MUCH more.

** RicePigeon is a creator known for his custom [[Touhou]] characters, so when he released Suwako Moriya nobody was really taken aback. However, before the fight begins things take a dark turn. Suwako is destroyed ''by her own hat'' and the hat takes control as the one fighting. The Hat has its own theme music as well and is voiced by [[Devil May Cry|MUNDUS]].
