Tropes:
- Brick Joke: In a sequence in the Year One Brawl, people from each side keep showing up and Nostalgia Critic exclaims their names in shock; during Kickassia, when Nostalgic Critic is phoning everyone to tell them about the invasion:Critic: Hang on, I've got to call Sean.Chick: Who?Critic: The epic fail guy!Chick: Oh. He's funny.
- Catchphrase: "I have lost all faith in children's advertising!"
- Made of Iron: Shows in the anniversary brawl, when 5 punches from Angry Joe don't even make him flinch.
- Psycho for Hire: His SUMO NINJA persona, available for assassinations, assisted suicides, and birthday parties.
- Running Gag:
- Sean crying in the shower to Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" after a particularly epic fail.
- The "audience" booing when he makes a tasteless joke. Happens often enough that he was shocked when it didn't and made an even more tasteless one to get the boos.
- His hatred of Rise of the Argonauts—which even went along with the "My Heart Will Go On" crying in the shower.
- Self-Deprecation: Another one of his comedy staples. Witness his cameo as a service repairman in JewWario's Warion Saga:JW: What are you doing working for Nintendo?Sean: [sighs, shrugs] It was either this or stripping as the Kool-Aid Man◊. So you gonna let me in, or what?JW: Well sure, but...why aren't you in like, a uniform or something?Sean: It's Casual Friday! Be glad I'm even wearing pants.
