YMMV / Tower of Animus

• Adorkable: Aria's kindness, enthusiasm, and slight naivety have made more than one mun squee on occasion.
• Fan Nickname: The fans have several for the game itself.
  • Animus Sadist Show
  • Tower Wonderfuck
  • Animoose/Moose

• Memetic Badass: England survived both the Hitori Kakurenbo game and the Labyrinth experiment— the latter of which he was able to outlast The Condesce— was able to keep sane when he had everyone's powers after the events, and had a verbal spar with Jason over the network. It took a game-show and some pity votes to finally get him to die. Now with fanart.◊
• Memetic Mutation:
  • The OU versions of Eikichi, Jun, and Tatsuya from Persona 2 are known as "The Three Stooges".
  • The playerbase jokingly refers to the game itself as "Animoose" or simply "Moose". Recently, Romeo was turned into a monster moose by Jason. Enjoy your mascot, Tower!
  • Captain Cinnamon Claws haunts the living memories of anyone who participated in the Hitori Kakurenbo event. There's a variety of bear emotes to represent him, as well: ʕ ᵒᴥᵒʔ is just one of such emoticons.
  • The game itself is often called "Tower of Sadimus" by its playerbase.
  • William Spears was jokingly called Britney Spears by AU!Minato and it has since become a repeated◊ joke◊ among the players.
  • You tried.◊ Alternatively, "Yu tried".
  • Various "team names", including Team Girl Power, Team NOLO, and Team Science. Many of these came out of the Massive Infiltration Plot.
  • 'Punching Jason' and variants ('sniping Jason', 'kicking Jason', etc.) became a common fixture. Shortly afterward, Ruana took 'slapping Jason' and made it canon. Made even more canon in Something Unexpected when Feferi, Gamzee, Meiling and Tavros broke into his room and got asked why they were down there - he knew they were down there to punch him in the face!

• Moment of Awesome:
  • In the Infighting event, Yu and Ken had enough of Jason's games. It didn't go so well, but it was a good effort!
  • When the characters figured out how to reverse the body-swap event, sticking it to the most hated NPC among the Tower residence.
  • Dark Pit put Sheba on his shoulders, letting Xion slip past Jason. And some of them lived!
• Moral Event Horizon: If Ruana hadn't crossed it before, she definitely did when she ate Dax.
• Never Live It Down:
  • One particular incident in the Tower has, both in and out of character, more or less defined Aleph as the guy with the dick in a chariot.
  • During the Rebellion event, Xion (while brainwashed and malfunctioning) cut off Riku Replica's arm. While the two have made their peace with it, the Tower seems hell-bent on reminding her of what she did. Arms and missing arms seem to keep turning up everywhere: her mailbox, the job she awoke to doing during Cognizance, even her 7th death penalty.

• No Yay: Fan favorite(?) Ganon/Richtofen. During the Dark World plot, a stupid decision by Ganon has convinced Tohko Amano that the two are actually lovers, with Ganon cheating on Sephiroth.
