Funny / Demon's Souls

• Backstabs with the Keel Smasher/Dragon Bone Smasher. The thing is taller than you are, wider than pretty much every humanoid enemy, and is blunt at the top. And then some enemies get back up again afterwards. The sight of it is just absurd.
• Some item descriptions fall into this. The above-mentioned Dragon Bone Smasher's description ends with "Because of its immense weight, blacksmiths joke that it can scarcely be called a sword."
  • Which is doubly funny, because it isn't called a sword. It's the Dragon Bone Smasher, not the Dragon Bone Sword. Thus, the joke is really on those blacksmiths, because the only people calling it a sword are them.
    • It's still an ultra greatsword, though
    • It's also a reference to Berserk (of which the souls games are full of), with the opening narration referring to Guts' Dragonslayer sword being "It was too big to be called a sword. Massive, thick, heavy, and far too rough. Indeed, it was a heap of raw iron".
• Keep surviving Patches' deathtraps, and he keeps getting more flustered and disbelieving when you casually walk up to him to say hello (after he tried to murder you). The following awkwardness as he attempts to apologize or excuse his behavior is both painful, hilarious, and painfully hilarious.
• Old King Doran's Narmy death cry.
• The deftly-named "Sticky White Stuff" is an item in the original version.^note It was renamed "Sticky White Slime in the remake. Hehehehehe...
• "Old Spice" is another one in the original.^note It was renamed "Aged Spice" in the remake. One is tempted to name their character Mustafa and run around shirtless simply by virtue of this.
• The quite awful Hand of God weapon, has poor scaling, can only be leveled via Colorless Souls, and it's hit-box is near non-existent. However, it has quite a powerful running attack that will knock any unfortunate humanoid five feet backwards. A fair amount of fun can be had knocking enemies and unsuspecting players off narrow ledges.
• The revamped riposte/backstab animations in the Playstation 5 remake are all much more visceral and satisfying than ever before to perform, though some of them can be quite funny. Back stabs with straight/curved sword weapons always end with a very meaty kick that sends an enemy flying several feet forward, often rag-dolling if it kills them. Even better if done near a ledge, seeing a poor bastard's lifeless body flop down after back stabbing them can be very amusing.
