Due to the sheer number of characters, there are so many hilarious character interactions that it would be easier to just link to this document that lists them all than to put them all on this page. Everything down below are some of the top funny ones.

  • A lot of Ruby's character interactions are shaping up to be hilarious:
    • Ragna and Ruby's team intro. It's what all the fans expected:
      Ruby: Oohhh! Oh, your weapon looks so cool! Can I take a look at it!? Can I please!?
      Ragna: [clearly annoyed, nonchalantly pushes her away from him] Do that later, just get away!
      • Then there's their team outro continuing from that:
        Ruby: All that power, I just have to know more about that thing.
        Ragna: FYI, I ain't doing it.
      • It goes even further into their victory screen dialogue:
        Ruby: Whoa, your weapon transforms too, right!? And it looks just like Crescent Rose! Hey, what other tricks can it do!? How much does it weigh? What's it made out of!? Can I hold it? Please? Please?
        Ragna: Argh, shut up! Just—stop talking!
    • Ruby and Es in a team:
      • Intro:
        Es: Do you also desire the Azure?
        Ruby: [Beat] Well, actually uhh, I'm more interested in your sword.
      • Outro:
        Ruby: Oh please, can I see your sword? Just for a little bit?
        Es: No.
      • Victory Screen:
        Ruby: Crescent Rose and I are one in the same! A weapon is a part of you! You can’t live without it! Is that how you feel about your sword?
        Es: A part of me... Something I can’t live without... But that would be...pudding?
    • Ruby and Rachel's intro:
      Ruby: Aww yeah, here comes Team Rose!
      Rachel: Make light of a rose and you may be pricked.
    • Ruby and Hyde's intro:
      Hyde: If you're scared, you can just stand back and watch.
      Ruby: Same to you, Hyde. You don't have to fight if you're scared of me showing you up.
      Hyde: Roger tha-! W-wait, hold on!
    • Ruby and Weiss's victory interaction hangs a lampshade on it just being the pair of them that are in the base game;
      Ruby: Don't mess with Team RWBY!
      Weiss: Or at least Team RW.
    • Ruby and Gordeau's win screen dialogue where Ruby proceeds to leave Gordeau contemplating about his age:
      Ruby: I haven't met another scythe user in a really long time... Actually, Uncle Qrow might be the only one that I know. Anyway, good work, old man! I've gotta make sure that I can keep up.
      Gordeau: Good grief... Did you just call me "old man"? Do I really look that old? I've gotta take some time to process this...
    • Ruby and Yu's victory screen diagloue has the former bringing up Yu's kingpin nickname. Yu ponders why so many people knows of his nickname and ponders whether the Midnight Channel is involved somehow.
  • Ruby and Susano'o following 2.0. She thinks Terumi's "armor" looks wicked...then promptly geeks out when Terumi becomes Susano'o.
    Ruby: Wowww! I love your samurai armor! It's so cool!
    Terumi/Susano'o: Hold your tongue, little girl. (enters Susano'o unit) This armor is that of a God!
    • Funnier still is the outro sequence.
      Susano'o: Pay tribute to this divine vessel!
      Ruby: Can... Can I try it on sometime?
    • The victory screen itself is worthy of a few chuckles. Having seen Susano'o in action, Ruby asks if she could use it. Rather than become annoyed or threaten to cut her down for her insolence, Susano'o is impressed.
      Ruby: That armor's really tough, but the design's so elaborate! The tail and the hair look real! It's just so cool! Can I try it on, pleaaaaase?
      Susano'o: Oh? You have ambition, girl. But to don this vessel is to consign your flesh to a vortex of infinite resentment. If you are prepared to face death, then by all means!
  • Ragna and Jin having another one of their sweet brotherly bonding moments:
    Jin: (with a psychotic expression on his face while he and Ragna are literally face-to-face) Brother... LET'S KILL EACH OTHER! (tries to slash at Ragna only for him to dodge).
    Ragna: Stop crying, you little punk. I'll deal with you later.
    • And their outro.
      Jin: With this, the obstructions are gone...
      Ragna: (Beat) ...shit. *runs offscreen*
      Jin: Now, let's kill each other, Brother... Brother? BROTHER!! *runs off in Ragna's direction*
    • On that related note, you have Ragna saying "Come on, perv." when he calls Jin in for an assist.
  • Ragna and Platinum
    • Intro
      Platinum (Sena): Uh...please don't hurt us, Mr. Pedo.
      Ragna: I'M NOT A PEDOPHILE!
    • Team Outro
      Platinum (Luna): You're pretty good!...for a pedo.
      Ragna: I SAID I'M NOT A PEDOPHILE, DAMMIT!
    • Victory Quotes
      Platinum (Sena): Lunaaa...th-this guy's eyes are scaring me...
      Platinum (Luna): Right? He's TOOOOOTALLY a creeper.
      Ragna: Ugh, gimme a break...
  • This gem from a Chie and Azrael team-up:
    Azrael: Show me the power of a real carnivore!
    Chie: [Beat] Carnivore's kind of a loaded term! It's not like that!
  • Most of Yosuke's interactions are comedy at his expense, as usual.
    • Yosuke isn't happy with Es' description of him:
      Es: I look forward to working with you, Junes employee Yosuke Hanamura.
      Yosuke: SERIOUSLY? Just don't call me that after I show you what I've got!
    • Hazama trolls Yosuke:
      Yosuke: All right we'll take you on!
      Hazama: You can do it! I'm rooting for you!
      Yosuke: Just leave it to-Hey! Don't make me do all the work!
    • A Yosuke and Linne team involves Yosuke trying to sound cool. Linne is not impressed:
      Yosuke: Haha! You're fast but I'm pretty quick myself!
      Linne: Are you trying to show off? Ah, to be young again.
      • And then if they both survive the match:
        Yosuke: Yeah! Against our speed...
        Linne: All other powers are meaningless.
        Yosuke: Hey, you're actually into it!
        Linne: S-shut up.
    • Yosuke and Chie are at it again, as always:
      Chie: Let's go, Hanamura! You mess around, I'll smack you in the back of the head!
      Yosuke: Give me a break, it'd be 3-on-1 damn it!
    • Naoto Kurogane wonders where Yosuke is when the latter suddenly arrives on bicycle and crashes off-screen:
      Naoto Kurogane: Okay, we got this! ...Uh, Yosuke?
      Yosuke: (riding in on his bike) Somebody stop this thiiiiiiing!
      (Yosuke crashes off-screen)
      Naoto Kurogane: (running off-screen) Yosukeeeee!
  • Hyde refuting Noel's attempts to make peace:
    Noel: Please surrender, there's no need for us to fight.
    Hyde: Yeah I don't think that's gonna work. Sorry...
  • Prim-'n'-proper heiress Weiss Schnee and scatter-brained squirrel girl Makoto are polar opposites, so of course, they don't mesh well:
    Weiss: Are you ready? Be sure to follow the plan.
    Makoto: Heh, roger that!... crap, what was the plan again?
  • And Tager can sympathize with Weiss.
    Tager: Stay focused and ready, Makoto.
    Makoto: Yeah, I'm ready... ready to punch 'em in the face!
    Tager: *sigh* Did you hear a word I just said?
  • Ragna and Hyde's intro becomes this if you imagine the scenario from a father-and-son perspective. The two of them share the exact same train of thought when it comes to fighting, and Hyde resembles a miniature Ragna, even doubly more so now that he has a palette that makes him look just like that.
    Ragna: Cut straight through and take 'em down. You got a problem with that?
    Hyde: Not at all. That's what I always do.
  • Crosses over with awesome, but Gordeau's disbelief to Yukiko being a fighter:
    Gordeau: A pampered lady like you is gonna fight? Are you jokin'?
    Yukiko: Just watch me and see if I'm joking.
  • Ragna and Nu being on a team goes about as well as you'd expect:
    Nu: Who dares to stand in Ragna and Nu's way? You wanna die?
    Ragna: [Beat] Personally, I'd welcome death right about now.
  • Azrael and Waldstein just don't get along, and the arguing can be enjoyable.
    Waldstein: Come! My claws shall make you my prey!
    Azrael: Your prey? Don't be absurd! They're mine!
  • Chie and Waldstein may both be Blood Knights, but Waldstein takes it to a level too intense for Chie.
    Waldstein: Fellow warrior! Let us march boldly to our bloody end!
    Chie: Uh, you wanna turn that down a notch? To a "We're the strongest! Yeah!" kind of level...?
  • Waldstein and Hyde's outro.
    Hyde: What now, old man? Still wanna treat me like a kid?
    Waldstein: Don't make me laugh, boy. You're barely breaking out of your shell. Talk to me again when your arms are the size of your torso.
  • Blake seems to have trouble keeping up with Ragna.
    Ragna: Pfft. Nothing but small fry.
    Blake: Says you. You don't know what I had to go through.
  • Orie's post-match interaction with Weiss showcases how Adorkable she is:
    Weiss: The secret to victory…
    Orie: Is justice.
    Weiss: And nobility.
    Orie: And er, teamwork, maybe?
  • In addition to unique interactions, some of the generic lines can be quite funny depending on the characters involved.
    • Linne can say in an outro that she's seen more death than her opponents ever will when fighting against Rachel, who has lived more than 70,000 years longer than Linne and who witnessed half of humanity being wiped out by the Black Beast, the brutal Ikaruga Civil War and the destruction of Kagutsuchi every 100 years. Oh poor innocent Linne. You think you have it bad?
    • One of Ruby's victory screen quotes has her excitedly ask her partner about their weapon. This includes when she's talking to Azrael. She really needs to get her eyes checked.
    • Blake has a quote stating that having friends isn't so bad and that her partner should try to rely on others... and she can say this to Yu Narukami.
    • Yang has an outro quote where she states "Oh Ruby, your big sis won". She could state that line after defeating Ruby in a battle. As if Ruby couldn't tell.
  • Yang's introduction with Yosuke sees our hapless hero fall into the scene with in a trash "bucket", which Yang states is a good look. In their team outro, she even suggests Yosuke pose with the "bucket".
  • Yukiko seems to have made a major misconception about Carmine's ability.
    Yukiko: Attacking with your nosebleed, awesome!
    Carmine: No it's not! And that's not what I- Goddamn it!
  • Speaking of our bloodsoaked edgelord, Makoto's attempt to rehabilitate him... doesn't seem to be working out.
    Makoto: Hey, you got way too worked up back there. You ever think about relaxing once in a while? Maybe give yoga a try?
    Carmine: Shut up and stop pissing me off. I don't want any of your stinkin' animal blood on my hands.
  • It's not so much that Noel's cooking is so bad that not even Vatista wants to eat it, but more so that Noel's cooking is so bad that Vatista doesn't even recognize her rations as food.
    With a vote of 99-1, we have decided against ingesting this "dark matter."
  • Speaking of Noel and her cooking, once again the only one who enjoys it is Mai, as she comments in various occasions that she can't wait to taste Noel's "Death Dinner".
  • It seems Weiss' nickname followed her into this game:
    Naoto: So... I take it you're the infamous "Ice Queen".
    Weiss: (angrily) Why does EVERYBODY call me that?!?
  • Vatista and Es choose a rather... interesting word to describe winning a match by the skin of their teeth.
    Vatista: "A narrow victory. Clutch."
    Es: "Clutch."
  • Jubei's line during a post-battle outro with his wife Nine is very funny.
    Jubei: You're my one and only. There are, ugh... all sorts of reasons I'd never want a divorce.
  • Post-combat commentary has Carmine tell Nine that he's not interested in "old hags' blood". Nice knowin' you, pal.
  • When Platinum is paired wih Es, Luna comments that the latter is so tiny, but despite that they're so huge. Es naturally is confused about why she's using the words "tiny" and "huge" at the same time. And after the battle, Luna angrily comments that, when she's a few years older, she will make her feel sorry and runs away crying, leaving Es even more confused.
  • What happens when Genki Girl Mika is paired with the emotionless Robot Girl Nu-13? The former teaching the latter to be more Hot-Blooded.
    Mika: (Post-Match) That sucked! What is this, Mecha-girl? Amateur hour? Put some spirit into your srikes! Yell! Roar! Set your heart ABLAAAAAAAAZE!
    Nu-13: Useless. Worthless. Pointless. Nonsensical.
  • 2.0 gives us an intro for Ruby and Adachi about "justice."
    Ruby: Justice will be swift!
    Adachi: Justice will be painful.
    Ruby: And it will be delicious!
    Adachi: (clapping very sarcastically) Yaaaay....
  • 2.0 gives a proper interaction for Heart and Ragna.
    • Match Intro:
      Heart: We'll show you the power of love!
      Ragna: Yeah, that's not what I'm workin' with...
    • Upon Victory:
      Ragna: Get it now? This is—
      Heart: The power of love!
      Ragna: Ugh, you freakin'...
    • Post-Match Screen:
      Heart: The power of love is so strong within you! I can feel it!
      Ragna: Like I said, the power of the Azure isn't— Ugh, fine. Let's just go with that.
  • The Naotos interactions are pretty funny in a sort of meta sense, including Shirogane dubbing both Naotos as "Team Naoto", and Kurogane asking if she ever thought of switching to last names.
    Naoto Shirogane: That turned out even better than I expected. I can always count on you, Naoto-san.
    Naoto Kurogane: Aww, c'mon. It was all because of your great strategy, Naoto! Huh. Ever think about switching to last names?
  • Celicas' still causing trouble for Ragna it seems.
    Celica: Hmm, where to go next...? Where do you think, Ragna?
    Ragna: I don't care. You just need to find someplace to hide. Whenever you wander around, things get messy and— HOW ARE YOU ALREADY GONE?
  • A lot of Susano'o's interactions can be pretty funny, with how so few of the characters actually treat him like an actual god, but the one that takes the cake is Hazama. Instead of his usual troll-like demeanor, he just sounds so done with what Susano'o has to say. Which makes sense, when you consider the fact that, being a former host body for him, Hazama has likely heard all of this before.
    • Match Intro:
      Yuuki Terumi/Susano'o: Here's a little treat for you, Hazzy! [dones Susano'o armor] You will bear witness to my legend!
      Hazama: Yes, yes, it's all VERY exciting.
    • Upon Victory:
      Susano'o: What's wrong? Our revelry has just begun.
      Hazama: Are you blind? Your partygoers are all spent.
    • Post-Match Screen:
      Susano'o: Repent and worship! For you have borne witness to God's true power!
      Hazama: Uh-huh, fantastic, great job. Get that out of your system yet?
  • Azrael is a little... too enthusiastic about seeing God's power.
    Susano'o: You shall feast upon your divine punishment. A gift far exceeding what a stray dog deserves.
    Azrael: Yes! Give me all the punishment you've got! I won't let any of it go to waste, God!
  • It says something about Celica's poor navigational skills when she forces Vatista into being the Only Sane Man. By the end, Vatista of all people has devolved into a Deadpan Snarker (emphasis on deadpan.)
    • Match Intro:
      Celica: (Examining an upsidown map) Um, we should be going... this way! (Points in the opposite direction.)
      Vatista: (Points forward) Not that way. This way.
    • Upon Victory:
      Celica: This has got to be a shortcut!
      Vatista: Why voluntarily choose a painful path?
    • Post-Match Screen:
      Celica: I'll find us a path, Vatista! We'll be fine this time, I'm sure of it!
      Vatista: My master configured me to pursue efficiency, not adventure. Thus, I advise you to hand the map to me.
  • Hyde's confusion about Yumi's status as a ninja, made slightly funnier with Yumi's sincerity in their potential prowess and Hyde responding in kind but still questioning the ninja business.
  • Courtesy of the 2.0 update, Seth's quote on the victory screen when he's paired with Yosuke has him decide he needs to ditch Yosuke the first chance he gets after the latter dubs them "the Badass Brothers."
  • Heart and Hyde's intro has Hyde think Heart is asking him out after she declares the opponent should accept her love.
    • A few more of Heart's interactions are like this, including Heart trying to read a poem Noel is writing as the latter flusteredly insists she doesn't read it, and Akatsuki being (understandably) confused as Heart announces the opponent feel the power of love, and being amazed at what the power of love can apparently do.
  • Susano'o's apparent irrational hatred towards Neo is almost comical with how seemingly uncalled for it is. It's like her mere presence fills him with unbridled rage.
    • Match Intro:
      Neo: (giggles)
      Susano'o: You are a blight. Begone, illusionist.
    • Upon Victory:
      Neo: (snickers)
      Susano'o: Your tricks make mockery of my absolution.
    • Post-Match Screen:
      Susano'o: Your apparitions make light of my very presence. Death is kinder than you deserve. Your punishment shall be eternal!
      Neo: .....
  • Waldstein initially thinks it will be fun to fight with a god, only to be disappointed that Susano'o swatted the opponents so quickly. He decides to show Susano'o "the joy of battle!" Good luck with that, Wald.
  • The fact that Neo's post interaction with Teddie has him trying to ask her out. He gets the usual response.
    Teddie: What are you doing after this, Neo-chan? How about you and I go on a date to Junes? Or we can go eat at Aiya, if you want!
    Neo: ......
    • Yosuke also makes an attempt at flirting with Neo, which quickly escalates to him panicking when she doesn't respond, as he was apparently never made aware of her inability to speak.
  • As in his home series, Kanji often use the wrong words in his sentence that made Yosuke thinks the wrong way:
    Kanji: Hey, Hanamura-senpai, you're hurt. Here, I'll lend you my shoulder. Just relax and lean on me.
    Yosuke: Whoa, nope. I'm A-okay Seriously, I'm good. I appreciate the gesture, but I can walk on my—ow!
