FUCKHEAD! Explanation One of Travis' one-liners after dispatching a Mook with his beam katana. Even funnier is that it doubles as the first line of dialogue he says in the game (barring the opening monologue, of course).
MISTER SIR HENRY MOTHERFUCKERExplanation Travis' derogatory nickname for the Irish assassin Henry. Henry, having just kill-stolen by interrupting Travis' duel with Letz Shake, infuriates Travis to no end. Travis mocks Henry with this line in an Irish accent right after Henry leaves. This would soon become Henry's nickname among the fandom, some even considering it better than his actual last name, Cooldown.

CHICKEN SHIT.Explanation Another taunt. Same guys as before.
MOE~Explanation Travis, being an Otaku, is heavily obsessed with Japanese culture. This cultural fascination is passed on to Travis' self-proclaimed pupil Shinobu in Desperate Struggle... who has no idea what this mysterious Japanese word "moe" actually means; she treats it like it's a spiritual power on par with bushido, and even asks herself what the hell it even means sometimes while saving.

Her first boss is Million Gunman, a greedy man with a Money Fetish and a colorful vocabulary, with lines that play constantly whenever he does something.

HOLY SHIIIIIIIIT! Explanation Charlie usually belts this out in response to you kicking his ass.
You don't want this to become No More Heroes Forever, do you? Explanation The last boss and the bonus boss shatter the fourth wall in the first game, with the former commenting on how if she didn't say her life's story in fast forward, the game would be delayed or banned. The quote also doubles as one of the manyTake Thats in media to Duke Nukem Forever. Even with Duke Nukem Forever having since been released, this line still remains relevant, this time in regards to how the game was ultimately critically panned upon release and used as a warning about how Development Hell can affect a game's quality for the worse.
STRAWBERRY ON THE SHORTCAKE! Explanation One of Travis' one-liners during a Super Mode, all of which are based on deserts/berries/characters from his favorite anime.
