YMMV / X in X Minutes

Go To

  • Crosses the Line Twice: From their Battle Tendency parody, Rudol von Stroheim gets gorily disemboweled by monstrous squirrel. It would be absolutely horrifying if it happened to anyone else, but since this is Stroheim we're talking about...
    Stroheim: OH GOD HELP ME! OH JESUS, GOD, OH FUCK! PLEASE SOMEBODY! IT'S TEARING OUT MY INSIDES! THEY ARE METAL BUT THEY'RE CONNECTED TO MY NERVOUS SYSTEM! THE SCIENTISTS REMOVED THE ABILITY TO GO INTO SHOCK! I CAN'T STOP FEELING EVERY CLAW AND BITE!
    Smoky Brown: [grins ear to ear] I was gonna sit this one out... but I'm glad I didn't.
  • Genius Bonus: An extremely Black Comedy example comes in "MHA Season 2 in 8 Minutes" with a Freeze-Frame Bonus in a newspaper that quotes Endeavor saying "I'd say I'm good friends with about 40% of cops", a reference to the infamous statistic which reports that 40 percent of American police are domestic abusers.
  • Growing the Beard: Many fans tend to note how "Demon Slayer in 6 Minutes" marked a significant turning point in the show's quality, with the Art Evolution from flash-styled clip shows with character render puppets to full on abridged-styled editing.
  • He Really Can Act: Sean Chiplock's performance as Jotaro is a spot-on impression of Matthew Mercer.
  • Spiritual Successor:
    • The series has similar humor and timing to Dragon Ball Z Abridged, particularly the Kai shorts which comedically blast through the events of every major arc.
    • This more or less has the same premise and humor style to Gigguk's older videos where he did the same thing. His series was also titled "X in X Minutes."
