Elmer Studios is a long-running MSTing series that uses a quartet -more or less- of original characters. The series primarily focuses of bad fanfiction from a variety of sources; while there is a lot of anime focus, they have also covered ones based on Western cartoons, comics, video games and other material. They have also done MSTings of a few professionally published works, mostly old comics.The series has two writers who have gone by a variety of aliases over the years, including Rick R. and Zogster. At various stages, they have had a variety of guest writers, as well as taking part in collaborative events.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Elmer Studios began in 1997 and ran until 2002 on the now-defunct Shinji's Vault of AnimeMSTings and ran for 151 episodes (not counting several guest appearances in other projects and a variety of lost side projects). After being effectively abandoned, it was resurrected in 2012 on the Elmer Studios Blog (linked above) and has continued since. As of this writing, the relaunched version has 259 episodes and continues with a slow, if semi-regular release schedule.The main cast consists of four characters: Dan, who generally makes casual, jokey comments and will not take things too seriously. Rebecca Bartley, who likes to pick at holes in the story and logic. Rick R. Mortis, who usually makes general jokey comments and revels in obscure references. Tsuneo Tateo, who is very nitpicky as well as being dry and sarcastic at times.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })In addition, there is a supporting cast (known as the B-Team) who are used in single-author riffs. The original iteration of Elmer Studios also featured a number of guest characters in collaborative works.Mostly remembered by their Neon Genesis Evangelion II: DELTA Invasion lambasting.

Aborted Arc: It's clear that there was "something" planned with Voice 2.0 and Natasha, but the writers seem to have dropped it completely.

Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Rick is supposedly an ace pilot and successful creator, but acts like a total idiot. He puts a lot of his success down to "blind luck".

Berserk Button: Rebecca tends to get worked up over the mistreatment of female characters in the fics they review. It happens a lot.
