!!''10 Year Anniversary Special'' provides examples of:
* AdvertisedExtra: Despite featuring on the poster and thumbnail, Meggy has absolutely no presence in the story, [[WebAnimation/SunsetParadise being in Port Aurora and all]]. [=SMG4=] has Heavy Squid serve as her substitute in the party, and Meggy only appears towards the end in her ''Sunset Paradise'' design via GilliganCut.
* AndTheAdventureContinues: After all is said and done, the Glitchy Gang declare their intention of [[spoiler: solving the mystery of the [=SMGs by finding SMG1 and 2=]'s Guardian Pod. Meanwhile, the anti-virus protection containing Zero is due to expire, meaning it will break out again.]]

-->'''[=SMG3=]:''' [[YouHaveGOTToBeKiddingMe What the bingus]]? Who would watch this kind of crap?\\
(cut to Bob doing exactly that)\\
'''[[AllMenArePerverts Bob:]]''' Oh yeah baby. Use your toes.

Zero's memories also imply that he was once the Avatar of [=SMG1 and SMG2=]'s universe, but got corrupted just like Mario, albeit fully.]]

* CallBack: As an anniversary celebration, a lot of previous events are called back to.
** The video opens with an attempt to recreate "The Cake is a Lie"
** Waluigi unleashes his true power when he thinks he's being rejected again.
** Mario threatens the Shy Guy for his toast with a baseball bat while delaring "Mario's gonna do something very illegal" like he did in "The Mario Mafia".
** Immediately afterwards, Mario gets [[Recap/MarioGetsHisPINGASStuckInTheDoor his PINGAS stuck in the door]].
** X and FM recreate the argument about [[WebVideo/CodeMENT buying clothes from the soup store]] again.
** Bowser again reads "Go the Fuck to Sleep" to a room full of Luma.
** During the mob chase, the scene from ''Who let the Chomps out'' with Mario and [=SMG4=] running from the Chain Comp is recreated.
** [=Swagmaster69696969696=] and Sonic the Hedgehog are still dating, still claiming "No homo".
* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: [=SMG3=] says that he only saved [=SMG4=] during their travel through the Dark Web is because he's the only one who can cure the memes. [=SMG4=] calls him {{Tsundere}} in response, and his reaction doesn't help.
-->'''[=SMG3=]:''' [[NotHelpingYourCase NO I'M NOT, YOU BAKA!]]
* TheCameo:
** Countless old characters appear in the first half of the film during the celebration.
** Meggy and Auri Bori appear in a GilliganCut in the style of ''WebAnimation/SunsetParadise''.
* CerebusRetcon: The reason all the Mario recolors were put on a LongBusTrip with little fanfare over the course of the series' run? [[spoiler:They were dragged to Zero's lair in the Dark Web and turned into lifeless husks in its pursuit of Mario, rising up as zombie-like drones when the situation allows it. Fortunately, after Zero is defeated, the recolors come back to life, escape the Dark Web, and create a new settlement for themselves known as Bloopersville.]]
* CerebusSyndrome: What starts a ContinuityCavalcade celebration of the channel's history quickly turns sinister once [[spoiler: Zero enters the picture.]]
* ContrastingReplacementCharacter: PlayedForLaughs with Heavy Squid filling in for Meggy at the party.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Becomes this in the second half, especially compared to ''Meggy’s Destiny''. To wit, it starts with the Dead Memes becoming corrupted and kidnapping Mario and his recolors and ends with [[spoiler: Mario getting MindRaped and mutated by a universe destroying sentient virus.]]
* DisneyDeath: [[spoiler:Mario initially seems to have perished due to Zero's MindRape. Cue his left arm returning to normal before asking for spaghetti.]]
* DrivingQuestion: [[spoiler:At the end of the movie, several, as noted by the gang:]]
** [[spoiler: Who or what is Zero, and why was it after Mario, this reality's "[[BarrierMaiden Avatar]]"?]]
** [[spoiler: What are Guardian Pods, the USB drives scattered across the world?]]
** [[spoiler: Are there any other [=SMGs=] out there?]]
* EasilyForgiven: Mario gets an angry mob that he pissed off trying to get toast from Shy Guy to calm down by inviting them to [=SMG4=]'s party.
* EldritchAbomination: [[spoiler: Zero. We never see its true form, only a red eye beam and a long blue arm, but whatever it is, it's bent on corrupting and destroying universes and sucking the life out of any Mario recolor it finds.]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** When [=SMG4=] recruits [=FM=] for his 10th anniversary party, the latter wonders where the other multi-colored Marios went.
** When [[spoiler:Zero]] begins corrupting Mario, [=SMG4=] and [=SMG3's=] textures begin fading away as they screamed in pain, indicating that their connection to Mario is more than just their appearance.
* FourthWallPsych: At the end of the movie, [=SMG4=] once again thanks the viewers for watching--only to show him talking to the castle wall. Heavy Squid laughs at him.
* FreudianThreat: When squaring up to fight the corrupted memes, Mario delivers one in his own... unique style.
-->'''Mario''': I'mma gonna rip your dickie off!
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: While [=SMG4=] contemplates what he needs for his 10th anniversary, Peach asks him and Mario if they need help with their video--and gets abused by Mario, naturally.
* GilliganCut: After the final battle [[spoiler:and Mario is shown to still be alive]]:
-->'''Fishy Boopkins:''' Oh yay, the gang's all here!\\
(cut to [[WebAnimation/SunsetParadise Meggy and Auri Bori in Port Aurora]])\\
'''Meggy:''' Hm. I feel like I'm being left out of something.
* GivenNameReveal: The names of those crazy hobos worshipping the number four? [[spoiler:[=SMG1=] and [=SMG2=].]]
* HalfwayPlotSwitch: The first half of the movie has [=SMG4=] and Mario gathering characters for their anniversary party. Then [=SMG3=] is unable to go back to the Internet Graveyard, causing an army of corrupted memes to run amok, and things go downhill from there.
* HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: [[spoiler:We don't know yet what Zero looks like. The only parts of him we've seen so far are his ''extremely'' long hands and the red light that presumably comes from his eye.]]
* HomageShot: The legendary "Who let the chomp out" scene is recreated.
-->'''Mario''': [[TemptingFate Well, at least it can't get any worse]].\\
'''Chain Chomp''': WHAT THE F*CK IS A SONIC.
* LawyerFriendlyCameo: As seen on the official poster above, Mario is getting electrocuted and the M on his cap is hidden so it does not count as use of Nintendo's IP.
* MindRape: [[spoiler:Zero does this to Mario during the the corrupting processes, making him see fragments of 0's memories. Of note is them walking through a burning wasteland, gaining powers, attacking [=SMG1 and 2's universe, and being sealed away by SMG1=].]]
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Twice, thanks to [=SMG4=]. The first one has him convince [=SMG3=] to come with the dead memes despite his warnings, convincing him to bring them over by appealing to his ego. [[spoiler:When Zero locks the way back to the Internet Graveyard, it causes an army of dead memes to run amok. Later, it's revealed that [=SMG4=]'s decision to throw his USB down into the Dark Web back in "[=SMG4=]'s Origins" complicated things when it came to defeating Zero.]]
* TheReveal:
** As it turns out, [[spoiler:the Fierce Deity mask really ''did'' give Melony more than just a human body; it gave her the powers of the mask as well, complete with the Fierce Deity Sword, as revealed during the fight with the corrupted memes.]]
** The disappearance of the Mario recolors [[spoiler:are revealed to because they were kidnapped by Zero, who was trying to find Mario. After Zero is sealed away, the freed recolors create a new settlement called Bloopersville to live in.]]
** The two hobos worshiping the number 4 [[spoiler: turn out to be [=SMG1=] and [=SMG2=].]]
** [[spoiler:[=SMG3=]'s and [=SMG4=]'s Mario-like forms were given through Mario himself, who serves as this universe's "avatar".]]
* ScarsAreForever: [[spoiler:During Zero's MindRape of Mario, we see that the polygon parts on [=SMG1=] and 2 are revealed to be scars during its rampage in their universe, if [=SMG4=] and 3's reaction to Mario's BodyHorror by losing their features are any indication.]]
* SealedEvilInACan: [[spoiler: [=SMG1=] and 2 defeat Zero by trapping it (and seemingly themselves) in [=SMG3=]'s Guardian Pod. Though it might not hold Zero for long, what with the Pod’s anti-virus protection subscription on the verge of expiring.]]
* SequelEscalation: The first [=SMG4=] movie had Mario and friends trying to help Meggy win the final Splatfest. This one has the Glitchy Gang [[spoiler: trying to stop a powerful computer virus from corrupting and destroying their universe.]]
* SequelHook: The movie ends with [[spoiler: the anti-virus protection on [=SMG3=]'s Guardian Pod, which is containing Zero, about to expire.]]
* ShowWithinAShow: [=SMG4=] runs through Ssenmodnar Lighting Round while trying to escape from Villager.
* SurpriseCreepy: When we hear Hobo 1 talking for the first time, it's surprisingly deep and serious sounding, establishing that he and Hobo 2 actually have a serious motive for chasing down [=SMG4=].
* ThankingTheViewer: Done twice; the first leads into a song, and the second, which turns out to be a FourthWallPsych.
* TorchesAndPitchforks: Mario and [=SMG4=]'s shenanigans at the mall causes an angry mob to hunt them down. [=SMG4=] uses Susan's [=YouTube=] Remote to freeze them in place, and Mario uses it to teleport them all to Peach's Castle, where he instantly calms them down by inviting them to the party.
* TokenEvilTeammate: [=SMG3=] serves this role for the movie. This is mostly because the main villain is threatening the whole world and has a vendetta against the [=SMGs=].
* WhamEpisode: [[spoiler:The second half of the episode elaborates on the events of ''[=SMG4's Origins=]'' by revealing the existence of other [=SMGs=], Mario turns out to be the Avatar for the [=SMG4=] universe, an EldritchAbomination is shown to have been lurking in the Dark Web for the ''entire series'' and kidnapping all the Mario Recolors, and if the end of the episode is any indication, it probably won't stay defeated for long...]]
* WhamLine:
** When [=SMG3=] gets locked out of the Internet Graveyard after trying to pull a ScrewThisImOutOfHere once the Hobos catch back up to [=SMG4=]:
-->'''[[SuddenlyVoiced Hobo 1:]]''' It’s too late… He’s already here.
** TheReveal of the two hobos' identity, which is {{Lampshaded}} soon after:
-->'''[=SMG4=]''': Thank you...for saving us, you guys. We...we don't even know your names!\\
'''Hobo 1''': What, really? I thought it was obvious by now. [[spoiler:My name is [=SMG1=]!!!]]\\
