A deliberately bizarre or unusual portrayal of gods (especially the Christian God), usually without the intent of being deliberately offensive. This goes well past using a woman or a minority (or both — Whoopi Goldberg has played God at least once); the King of All Cosmos is essentially The Wonka on a grander, cosmic scale. This may have something do with the cliches often associated with God, and the use is sometimes a soft commentary of humans assuming the nature of gods and the so-called superior place humans have in the universe. The King of All Cosmos frequently mentions that they are not omnipotent. This trope is named for the King of All Cosmos, from the game Katamari Damacy, who destroyed all the stars in the sky after a drunken bender and made his diminutive son, the Prince, help with replacing them. Due to the secular nature of Japanese media, this typically translates to the trope being applied to nearly all kami at some point. See also Celestial Bureaucracy and Crystal Dragon Jesus. Compare and contrast Mad God, where the deity is both eccentric and genuinely insane, and Almighty Idiot, where a character gains incredible power at the cost of their own mind being well and truly destroyed. |

Adventure Time has an entire pantheon of these. There's "Grob Gob Glob Grod" as the main Deity of Ooo, who in his appearances seems pretty chill, he's not above taking selfies with other gods and having pool parties. Then there's "The Party God" who is a giant floating wolf head wearing a sideways cap, and is shown to be a neglectful boyfriend, "Prismo" an odd pink shadow in the form of a man who only exists while a certain human is asleep, and "The Cosmic Owl" who comes to people in their sleep to predict their death, and originally sounded like Dr. Phil. Finally, Abraham Lincoln himself who is the immortal ruler of Mars. (Would say Makes Sense In Context, but it really doesn't) | |

Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter is one long, intentional play on this trope. A martial-arts and wooden-stakes-wielding Jesus... who shaves and dons modern clothing... and saves the lesbians of Ottawa from vampires... and sings and dances... and squeezes someone's ass. The movie also features the Virgin Mary talking through a nightlight, God talking through a Hooters bowl of ice cream and cherries, and a fabulous transvestite Good Samaritan. Oh, and the most saintly man on the planet is the legendary masked Mexican wrestler El Santo. | |

In Problem Sleuth, Pickle Inspector ascends to godhood and becomes Godhead Pickle Inspector. Naturally, this happens since Pickle Inspector was pretty eccentric as a mortal. After retroactively creating the universe, he spends most of his time fondly regarding things that rhyme with "creation". | |

While the focus of Crimson is on reluctant-but-destined-vampire Alex Elder, and the various vampires, werewolves and hunters that surround him (as well as the incarnation of St. George), there are also a squad of archangels who cross his path, while Lucifer himself repeatedly intercedes on Alex' behalf. God is not seen... until Lucifer recognizes the young, black, mute, flower-selling girl hanging around in the background. | |

In one episode of Beavis And Butthead, the titular characters meet God (or at least someone claiming to be him).

Largely the premise of Miracle Workers, which follows angels at Heaven Inc. as they try to win a bet with God to stop him from destroying a dysfunctional Earth and replacing it with a novelty restaurant. While he is genuinely stupid, it is later revealed that the reason Earth is much less functional than the planets and systems of other gods is that God gave humans free will. | |

In Epic Battle Fantasy 4, The Creator Goddess is a cat, fittingly called Godcat. She created cats in her image and humans as a slave race to them. But over the years, cats bonded too closely with humans for her liking, so she took away their arms and legs. Yeah... Though she does take a level in kindness after being defeated, and admits her fault. | |

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal God is usually portrayed as a sapient sundial or a disembodied halo or something. True to the themes of the strip, while not intentionally malevolent, he is flighty, petty and impulsive, and has an... interesting sense of humor. There are several weird explanations as to why he created the world or some part of it the way it is, like the time the salesthing at the dimension store wondered why he'd even bother making a universe if he could only afford four dimensions, or when he made humans much less intelligent so that they'd look funnier when having sex. He also frequently answers questions from humans directly, usually giving some weird explanation for the way the world or the universe is. One comic had a priest asking why there is suffering. He responds that everything is getting better. The priest asks about suffering on a personal level... God realizes that he was looking a bit too big picture. There is an even weirder depiction, too: The Insane Space Monkey that Jesus prays to. In strip 3403, it's revealed that life and humans on Earth were created by a Sufficiently Advanced Alien living in the centre of the Earth who only cared that "it's so erotic having these dumb carbon blobs scampering over my skin," doesn't even know one species is called "humans", and is just randomly called home one day. In "Dear Science", Science takes the place of God and reveals that this life is a test of one's devotion to empiricism, with corresponding punishments and rewards in the afterlife (although what's considered a punishment or reward is reversed like everything else). It's simultaneously evidently absurd to everyone and not that different from what religious people might actually believe aside from everything being mirrored. Satire, in other words. |

Dragon Ball King Kai introduced in Dragon Ball Z, the overseer of the North Galaxy (1/4th of the known universe), is a blue, obese, catfish-like being with a bad sense of humor, and quickly gets demoted from supreme being to comic relief. The Kais of the other three quadrants are equally eccentric, but we only really see them in Filler so they mostly just bounce off each other like squabbling siblings. Their boss the Grand Kai acts like an old man trying to be the "cool grandpa", being fond of rock music and classic cars while also trying to shirk responsibility whenever possible. Averted with the Eastern Supreme Kai, who's fairly normal considering he's from a universe full of super-powered martial artist aliens. The same can't be said for his predecessor from 15 generations ago, the Elder Kai, who's a Dirty Old Man through and through (as are many mentors in the DB universe). The Supreme Kais from other universes are a mixed bag: Roh from Universe 9 is a boastful Jerkass, while Gowasu from Universe 10 is a fairly reasonable old man...who enjoys watching GodTube. His apprentice Zamasu, however... The Supreme Kai of Time from Dragon Ball Xenoverse, a Genki Girl with curly pink hair. Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods and Dragon Ball Super introduces the Gods of Destruction and their attendants (one for each of the 12 universes). The one we see most often is Beerus, who's a food-obsessed Lazy Bum who feuds with his twin brother Champa, the God of Destruction for Universe 6. Later on we meet the Top God Zen'ō, who's essentially a blue-skinned, football-headed child with power over all of existence. |

The entire Discworld pantheon. Not only the straight deities who venture more into Crystal Dragon Jesus territory, like Blind Io and Fate, but the slightly odder ones, like the god of great ideas you forget to write down and will never remember again, the "Oh God" of hangovers, the goddess of the afternoon, the goddess of small dead things left half-digested on the porch (she has a cat head), the goddess of things that get stuck in drawers, and *cough* the Lady. Meanwhile, the Creator of the Discworld is an absent-minded little guy who's basically an engineer working on spec, who laid down the terrain and then left it for somebody else to equip with life (not his department). |

Apparently, since mankind stopped worshipping them the Greek Gods (or at least Eros) became drunkards, and Apollo's daughter Pollon (from Little Pollon) is addicted to cocaine (an old Italian joke on the protagonist having something that is described as "Looks like talcum powder but isn't it, it gives you happiness!

In Monty Python and the Holy Grail, a vision of the magnificent Almighty appears in the style of Terry Gilliam cartoons. It is to be expected that Monty Python's version of God is offbeat.

Scud the Disposable Assassin depicts a God that vaguely resembles the Judeo-Christian model, but is more of a force of nature than a sentient being - at the end of the series, Scud frees him from the prison his angels trapped him in, and God proceeds to run around like a wild animal, mauling and munching on his former servants. | |

In the TGIF comedy Teen Angel, God has a unique intermediary to mortals: his cousin Rod, the giant, disembodied head of actor Ron Glass.

In The Order of the Stick, Odin's head got messed up temporarily for centuries when his worshipers decided magic (which he's a god of) was nonsense for fools and simpletons. Now, he's a benevolent Talkative Loon, at least on a bad day, and may or may not deal out random prophecies that make no sense. Other gods have been shown in a weird light, too, like the god of beauty being a Brainless Beauty and the god of monsters being Stupid Evil. Thor, meanwhile, is shown as a Boisterous Bruiser who really doesn't think a lot about what he's doing, but in his later, non-jokey appearance, this side is largely downplayed by the fact that, being a god, he's highly intelligent and has had centuries and millennia to think about things by now. He's also somewhat been forced to take over the Top God role (along with his brother Loki) while their father recover. | |

The Judeo-Christian God, as depicted in Sinfest, enjoys mocking His subjects using hand puppets and has a sense of humor approximating that of a fourth-grader (but His decisions are still Serious Business.) Buddha is depicted as an eternally cheerful cloud-riding-Cloud Cuckoo Lander. Jesus is frequently depicted as a super-hero (when he's not moping about the sins of the father visited upon the son.) | |

The main god EZI in Eternal Sonata is very much Played for Laughs. The party can collect a number of bizarre items bearing his name, most of them mocking him relentlessly (his face makes children cry, all candy associated with him tastes bland or terrible, he's apparently capable of laying eggs, etc.) and in one of them he's described as being an overweight man. People who worship him are also obsessed with the the number 321, and an altar to him gives you that much money when searched, and collecting all of the items with his name on them awards you with an achievement worth equally many Gamerscore. | |

The Great Old Ones from Soul Eater are immensely powerful god-like beings that are presented as the strongest beings established in the manga. Each of them were members of the Eight Shinigami Legions (or "Death's Eight Guardians" in the Funimation Dub) - even implying that all of the members were Great Old Ones - and fought to defend the Earth against evil as a precursor to DWMA. They seem immune to conventional methods of death and all possess a special type of soul wavelength that inflict madness onto the world at large should they choose to. Due to being literal Mad Gods, their behavior can come across as rather perplexing. Shinigami-Sama/Lord Death was originally the leader of the Eight Shinigami Legions and is the only True God (his existence a necessity to the cosmos) and arguably the most powerful of them all. In modern times, he changed his appearance and personality into a more approachable, cartoonish form to appeal to children more. He is the eccentric, yet beloved founder and Dean of DWMA who acts like a buffoon, often missing the point of things or becomes distracted, when really he is a wise and impressive leader. He is also the embodiment of the Madness of Order, a madness that eclipses all human emotions and leaves only a mechanical cycle of only life and death, though his faith in humanity to make its own choices keeps him from using it. He is also able to reproduce asexually by fragmenting his soul, having created Asura and Death the Kid using this method. Death the Kid is Shinigami-Sama/Lord Death's son and heir to his organization and his status as Death God. He also possesses a crippling OCD, having had an obsession with symmetry which is implied to be a side-effect of his latent madness wavelength. Kishin Asura was created from the fragment of Shinigami-Sama/Lord Death's soul that represented his capacity to fear. He was unstable from the get-go, behaving suspicious and paranoid that unnerved his fellow Legions before he snapped, killed half of the other Legions and became a Kishin via devouring their souls before Death had to fashion a cage for him with his own skin. His soul emits the Madness of Fear, a powerful form of madness that is so potent that is can empower evil individuals and warp the very landscape. Eibon is an Ultimate Blacksmith Sorcerer responsible for the creation of the Demon Tools, his research indirectly responsible for the creation of demon weapons. He is the embodiment of the Madness of Knowledge, a madness said to give the person under its influence absolute knowledge to the point where it overwhelms the mind into stop thinking all together. Excalibur is an irritating... demon-weaponish individual that can take the form of a sword capable of synchronizing with anyone and can curb-stomp nearly any opponent. He is also so narcissistically annoying that no one is willing to stay within his presence before dismissing him entirely. He is the embodiment of the Madness of Anger, a madness that overwhelms the mind with irrational negative emotions. The Great Old One of Power is a mysterious, amorphous Eldritch Abomination that lives within the Book of Eibon in a self-imposed exile. As the name implies it is the embodiment of the Madness of Power, a madness that reveals and incites another's inner Madness, resulting in them giving into their desires uncontrollably and making them unfettered by reason or restraint. After completing their transformation into a Kishin, Crona gain a madness wavelength based upon the Madness of Boobs, a form of madness that influences an individual into having a much larger preference of female breasts and makes those under its influence fascinated with it enough to have the urge to repeatedly fondle, grab, or think of them often. |

The Unconquered Sun from Exalted appears, at first, to be a fairly typical four-armed sun-deity...note The Unconquered Sun's true form is a vaguely dragon-shaped nuclear fire until you look closer and realize that he essentially started a war against the actual creators of the universe which wrecked 90% of Creation, simply to get his hands on the cosmic X-Box (which he and the other ruling deities are now addicted to the point of completely ignoring Creation itself.) And those actual creators, now trapped in Hell? Their head honcho is a crazy brass man/city with an embarrassing penchant for wild dancing. As mentioned on the game's own page, later releases clarified things a great deal and made him much less of this. | |

In Cargo! The Quest for Gravity gods are a trio or trinity of mechanical robotic heads all called Manipu, who claim to be at the same time both omnipotent and limited by what their programming allows. According to Robot Devil the reason gravity is not functioning properly is that Manipu decided to erase mankind and start over, because humans are always messing things up with their "free will". The method they chose was a Biblical flood. However, they couldn't figure out how to accomplish this following current laws of nature, so they weakened gravity to get around it. The beings Manipu created to replace humans are supposed to only have positive mental traits. Unfortunately, things like utter selflessness combined with lack of fear led to them having next to no self-preservation instinct. | |

The Five Star Stories has some pretty weird gods & god-like beings. Amaterasu is an easily flustered hermaphrodite with an Oedipal complex & Lachesis is an airheaded teenager, although both of them can be surprisingly competent when they need to. It has also been implied that Amaterasu's insane court jester, Spector, is actually the creator god of their universe, or at least the titular stars. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: The crazy-amazing gigantic living all-wise Lion Turtle island, which, based on the knowledge it/he gives to Aang, may be even older than both the Avatar and bending as we knew it. Arguably, Aang himself also fits. The Avatar spirit is the fusion of a human soul with Raava, the ancient spirit of light and peace, continually reincarnating into human bodies... and in this incarnation, it's a twelve-year-old boy with giant arrow tattoos and a penchant for riding wild animals. |

The short-lived God, the Devil and Bob allowed God to be, well, God, but put him in sunglasses, t-shirts, and sandals. He looked a lot like Jerry Garcia, although it should be noted the show's producers actually used the stereotypical Christian image of God for their character, just with a different fashion sense. He also loves beer and Pop-Tarts. | |

The Black & White series of games has the protagonist taking on this role. You can be good or evil, but either way, your avatar is a giant (Godzilla-sized) animal that poops everywhere, likes to dance around, and occasionally eats people.

In the Goats comic strip, God went off to dress like a pirate, telling Woody Allen and a bunch of monkeys to take over writing new scripts for The Multiverse. Then two of the main characters tricked God into becoming a pork chop so they could eat him. This eventually places all existence in peril.

Oglaf has several similar depictions of God figures that resemble the Judeo-Christian God, and none of them are very impressive. (Don't even ask about the few original gods in the setting.) These range from the completely deranged Old Testament parody who inevitably annihilates His followers for some blasphemy or another to merely awkward versions like the one who gets accidentally tied up when someone gets carried away with Japanese rope bondage. One strip also has God getting really fed up with people who happen to put their hands together and say "oh God" while having sex, because it's technically praying and then He has to listen to them having sex. When what look like the Greek gods make an appearance, they rule rather weirdly and irresponsibly too. | |

In Bedazzled (2000), both the Christian God and Satan are represented this way, though Satan less so. Satan, played by Elizabeth Hurley, is shown as beautiful, desirable, and even polite. Though she can be angry and cruel and appear as the traditional Satan, she only does so when it fits her goals, and she is legitimately not angry when a soul escapes her grasp. Meanwhile, God is played by Gabriel Cassius, and appears as a young black man in jail, offering very casual wisdom and hope for the main character without revealing anything about his identity. | |

In Sacrifice, Stratos, the God of Air, also known as "Lord of the Heavens", is a floating white robe with a tire for a collar and a yellow helium balloon with a smiley face painted on it for a head. Underneath his benevolent and somewhat nutty facade, he's also The Chessmaster Magnificent Bastard and the true "villain" of the game's pantheon. | |

What does God need with a starship? Well, in Homeworld, God is a starship. Sajuuk, the Creator entity in the various religions of almost every race in the galaxy, is revealed in Homeworld 2 to be an incredibly powerful Precursor starship lying dormant at the center of the galaxy. Presumably, the name "Sajuuk" once belonged to the ship's former Unbound captain. | |

Amaterasu in Ōkami is a rather odd god. "Leap before you look" is her literal mantra (often jumping off of high, probably bottomless ledges just because they're in her way or picking fights when she doesn't really need to), and it's an ongoing joke that she has some sort of aversion to bathing. Within the first five minutes of the game, she falls asleep while someone's explaining why they need her help. Oh, and she's a wolf. That last one can be explained by the fact that "Okami" can mean both "wolf" or "great god." Maybe she likes puns? | |

In Spore, the great mystery at the center of the galaxy turns out to be a mysterious, all-knowing, all-powerful being who congratulates you on making it to the center, gives a grandiose speech about Life, the Universe, and Everything... and then is revealed to be a tiny UFO with a megaphone attached, named Steve (who then tries to sell you a timeshare on planet Earth). | |

The Sandman (1989) has the seven Endless. Immortal and almost all-powerful and knowing beings who have been around since the beginning of the universe. The oldest, Destiny, appears like a man in a hooded cloak carrying a large book and looks the most like a traditional God figure. The second one is Death, who is by far the most unusual by appearing as a Perky Goth who is one of the nicest and sweetest people you'll ever met (as well as the first and the last). Several old gods show up during the course of the series (but not the Judeo-Christian one) and generally avert this trope, looking like humanity has always envisioned them. The exception to this is probably Lord Kilderkin, an avatar of the concept of 'order'. He looks like a cardboard box and communicates through spontaneously generating messages on small strips of paper from inside the box. |

South Park depicted God as a short-tempered hippo/monkey hybrid creature in "Are You There, God? It's Me, Jesus". Oh, and he's a Buddhist, but only Mormons go to heaven. Made weirder because Buddha is a member of The Super Best Friends (a parody of The Super Friends featuring Jesus, other religious beings, and an Aquaman parody named Seaman). That's right, God is a member of a religion based off of the teachings of one of his son's friends. Though curiously, from a Buddhist perspective it would make perfect sense for the Christian God to be a Buddhist: the goal of Buddhism is to achieve a state with no desires, and God isn't exactly there yet, with His desires to grant salvation and defeat evil. Also Buddhism doesn't really entail a belief in any gods, so it's fitting that God would be an atheist, in so far as that He doesn't have a higher being to believe in. |

Aslan from The Chronicles of Narnia is Jesus in a form more suitable for Narnia. On Earth, which is dominated by humans, he took the form of a man. In Narnia, which is mostly populated by Talking Animals and mythical creatures, he takes the form of a giant talking lion who gives you rides on his back and lets you stroke his mane (but only when he allows it; he's not a tame lion, after all). | |

King Kai introduced in Dragon Ball Z, the overseer of the North Galaxy (1/4th of the known universe), is a blue, obese, catfish-like being with a bad sense of humor, and quickly gets demoted from supreme being to comic relief. The Kais of the other three quadrants are equally eccentric, but we only really see them in Filler so they mostly just bounce off each other like squabbling siblings. Their boss the Grand Kai acts like an old man trying to be the "cool grandpa", being fond of rock music and classic cars while also trying to shirk responsibility whenever possible. | |

Dinosaur Comics features God as a recurring character, audible only to T-Rex, with a rather bizarre personality. A good example can be seen here. The Devil (also only audible to T-Rex) also appears regularly and has something of a video game fixation. | |

In Heaven's Design Team God is never seen in person but is implied to be rather eccentric, making weird and sometimes rather vague requests (like an animal that's "adorably uncute" or "a horse that can fly"), and approving some very strange animals the Design Team comes up with (like the horsehair worm or Hallucigenea, which started as a weird doodle that Saturn's grandson Kenta made). | |

OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes has the President of the Universe, a Jive Turkey Physical God. In the penultimate episode of the series, he reveals that he created the glorbs that give people super powers so that everyone could have as much fun as possible. In short, he's the reason the series operates on Rule of Cool and Rule of Fun. There's also the recurring corn god that pops up, but it's never stated what his role is. | |

Transformers has a Giant Robot God. Primus, while not always Mr. Nice God (at least in the comics, he comes across better when he appears in the cartoons), is in fact the creator of the Transformers, and their homeworld is his body. Surprisingly little goes on by way of religious ceremony, though he is connected to both the Autobot Matrix of Leadership and Cybertron's Omega Lock, and granted the Autobots the Spark of Combination in Energon, as well as the Cyber Keys from Cybertron being derived from his power. And all this while he's sealed away in a deep slumber. Primus's opposite number Unicron is no slouch, either. He eats planets, created the Mini-Cons to give the Autobots and Decepticons something to fight over in Armada, and is directly responsible for the "hyper power" upgrades of most of Energon's Decepticons. |
