![]() ![]() YGOTAS reaches the top of this list for continuing to create hilarious content that hits home for both die-hard fans and those who have never seen a single episode of the original show, as well as for being the trailblazer that set the standard for abridged series as a whole. YGOTAS began in 2006 as the first fan-made abridged series and shows no signs of stopping even today, with 83 episodes plus spinoffs. Exaggerated Texan and Brooklyn accents make some characters impossible to listen to without laughing, and the use of these constant elements alongside fresh material keeps YGOTAS from becoming repetitive.Ĭharacters do everything from wonder why everyone's faces look so ugly to jumping from moving cruise ships because they must naturally risk their lives for cards, sometimes to the accompaniment of Celine Dion music. He was right - YGOTAS is over-the-top fun, constantly breaking the fourth wall and repeatedly returning to poke fun at the fact the show is all about a card game. ![]() YGOTAS was created for the simple reason that Youtuber LittleKuriboh thought the show's premise was ridiculous anyway and therefore would be easy to make fun of. This iconic abridged series has almost eclipsed the original Yu-Gi-Oh!anime, or at least contains quotes that are sometimes mistaken for canon.

The fact that Fullmetal Alchemist is so well known gives the series lots of room to joke around, since sticking to a coherent plot is not important. At some point they had been moved to the Box of Danger website and podcast, both of which are now defunct. Running gags such as Ed insisting that alchemy is actually magic and a commitment to jokes that will happen the exact same way multiple times in a row turn everything in the show into a farce filled with raunchy dry humor, as if Monty Python suddenly stepped into the world of Amestris. My personal favorite of these was one particular version of Pokemon: The Abridged Series (PTAS) by MasterWGS (there were a few different Pokemon ones). This abridged series of the original Fullmetal Alchemist anime by creator Faulerro revolves around the absurd character of British Ed, accompanied by an Alphonse who truly sounds trapped in a tin can. That's pretty much all there is to this series, which ran from October 2011 to September 2013.
