Tropes used in Mobile Suit Gundam Abridged include:

• Alternate Character Interpretation: Many of the characters are exaggerated versions of themselves, but perhaps the biggest change is Haro, who was designed by Amuro "to keep Frau away from [him]." His voice is clips of GLaDOS from Portal.
  • And Amuro is practically a basket case.
    • His father issues are taken to extremes, and often lead to rampages on the battlefield.
  • Dozle Zabi is a borderline Adult Child. After Garma bites it, Dozle goes to his dad for 'upsies'.
• Black Comedy Rape: At the end of episode eight, when the ship was a mile high up.
• Camp Gay: Garma, and all his men, too.
• Captain Oblivious: "Bu-but, I don't believe Garma was gay!"
• Cluster F-Bomb: Bright delivers one in episode 14 when Mirai points out that if the Gundam's reactor detonates, it could take out White Base too.
• Cool Shades: Char, complete with The Who's Won't Be Fooled Again.
• Domestic Abuse: Conversed for laughs in the scene where Bright slaps Amuro for refusing to pilot the Gundam:

Amuro: My own father never hit me!
Bright: Well, maybe he should have!

• Freak-Out: Bright loses it upon learning that Sayla was the one piloting the Gundam in episode 16.
• Fur and Loathing

Degwin: Look, if I need advice on how to turn a litter of kittens into a sweater, then I'll come to you.
Kycilia: It was two litters, and it was a coat. And you did think it looked rather cute on me.
Degwin: That, it did, my Dear. That, it did.

• Gilligan Cut: From episode 4:

Commander Wakkein: Those kids are too paranoid. Even the Red Comet wouldn't think to attack such a fortified position like Luna II.
(cut to Char)
Char: We're attacking the fortified position known as Luna II.

• I Know Mortal Kombat: Why kids can pilot the Gundams.

"It was the 400 hours I spent on Steel Battalion."

• Immune to Bullets: Char can't be hit because he's wearing pink.
  • "Allow me to reiterate my previous statement that your weapons are ineffective against me based on my pigmentation."
• Luke, I Am Your Father: The DNA evidence gag hints that Bright could be Amuro's real dad.
• Only Sane Employee: Bright does not like having to manage a crew of angsty teenagers.
• Red Shirt: "But I'm wearing blue!"
• Running Gag: "That's disgusting."
  • D N A Evidence.
  • A few episodes would end with any character saying "Wait..." after coming to sudden realization.
  • Anger Sayla and she'll shoot you in the crotch.
  • Allusions to sexual intercourse.
  • Ramba Ral and his Zeon forces mispronouncing "Earth phenomena", such as lightning as "litning", desert as "deesart" and Gundam as "Goondam".
• Sampling: Part of the Speedy Techno Remake of the original show's theme.
• Shout-Out: Many.
• Soundtrack Dissonance: The most intense battles are coupled with unfitting, yet upbeat, music.
• Talk Like a Pirate: Mirai, no matter how much she's asked to stop. She's just as confused about it as everyone else.

Mirai: Sir, don't look at me like that. It's involuntary! Yar! I be cursed!

• • She doesn't do it when the crew is on vacation, though. When it's clearly over, she starts up again, much to Sayla's relief.
  • It might be the Minovsky Particles. Since when are they harmless?
• The Alcoholic: Dren.
• The Stoic: Also Dren, whose voice never wavers from its bored monotone, even in combat. Also functions as the Deadpan Snarker, with extra deadpan.
