History Funny / ShangriLaFrontier

* Sunraku successfully baits several Crystals Scorpions into breaking off another's stringer, the last bit of loot he needs for a complete set. As he dives through the air to grab it, he sings the praises of the Goddess of RNG only to trail off as he realizes his grab is going to just barely miss the item. Tragic music plays as he falls short and into a swarm or waiting scorpions, all the while pleading that this can't be right. After reviving and pouting for a bit, Sunraku starts raging at the Goddess, who is now pictured sticking her tongue out and flipping him off with both hands.

* Sunraku ventures into Crystal Scorpion territory, but he gets ganged up on and dies. So he tries again, stealthily navigating to a crystal formation he wants to harvest. He raises his pickaxe... and it bumps a crystal behind him with a resounding clang, drawing the attention of all the Crystal Scorpions around him.

-->'''Pencilgon:''' It's like he asked you how to fly and you just told him to work out his pecs!

* Following the defeat of Wezaemon, we see the developers' reactions: one of the staff steels himself as if he's going into a warzone... because he has to deal with the other two developers who are bickering like preschoolers over each others' decisions in balancing Wezaemon.

* The EstablishingCharacterMoment for the protagonist Rakurou/Sunraku (and the tone of the story as a whole). We see that a BigBad has just been defeated... by a guy wearing some kind of Luchador mask and little else. Then, as the credits roll and a woman starts to thank the hero, [[MoodWhiplash said hero turns around and lands a kick straight to her face]]! He would later explain that this woman and the mechanics around her in the game are the sole bane to anyone playing it, but the ending cutscene lets him [[CatharsisFactor beat her up without repercussions]]. Also, the Luchadore costume was required to fight the final boss for some in-game reason.

* Pencilgon and Oicazzo are faced with Kirin entering its berserk mode in Episode 18 and decide they have to take it out no matter what before a stray beam hits Sunraku. Not because it would ruin the fight, but because if it did he would never let them hear the end of it for ''six months''. Something they admit they'd do themselves if the shoe were on the other foot.

* Sunraku's epic FreakOut when he realizes that by skipping the tutorial, he's been playing without using several core game mechanics.
* Sunraku and Oicazzo start teasing Pencilgon for getting emotionally involved with an NPC's storyline as she usually treats them like props. Embarassed, Pencilgon nearly kills the two until they and Emul assume a submission pose on the ground and become too pathetic for her to kill.

* During the serious opening song, after a close up of a determined Sunraku, Emul shows up out of nowhere with a plain yellow-orange background for a couple of seconds while the song goes says something like 'Duh?' or 'Huh?'. You read that right, even the ''song'' is confused over her appearance.

* During the BossRush that Sunraku fights in Rabituza, most fights are summarized as notes Sunraku made for each opponent, including their various strengths, his strategy for taking them down, and how many attempts it took down. Two stand out; one being for the Toxic Eagle (which mostly consists of him cursing it out for pooping on him, inflicting status ailments in the process, then flying away, resulting in him needing ''112 attempts'' to beat it) and the other for a boss with a complicated mechanic that Sunraku goes into a lot of detail into...before it starts to become SuperDetailedFightNarration, boring Sunraku enough to skip and just say he won.
