Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Jetters Abridged was an Abridged Series of the Bomberman Jetters anime. It was created by ThornBrain of Sgt. Frog Abridged, and written and voiced with fellow MidnightFrogs BigTUnit1 and codeblackhayate as Team Bulge Bomb. It ran sporadically from April 2011 to Valentine's Day 2014.Shiro is a young Bomberman whose brother, "the legendary Bomberman" Mighty, disappears suddenly after the first episode and is presumed dead. Shiro takes up Mighty's position in the Jetters, an intergalactic crime-fighting team pitched against the outrageous thief organization, the Hige-Hige Bandits, all while sorting out his issues with his late Jerkass brother, and slowly losing his mind when he realizes Mighty might not be dead. Shiro's teammates include the easily irritated Shout, the doddering old scientist Dr. Ein, the Cloud Cuckoolander extraordinaire Birdy, and the unloved and useless pair of Bongo and Gangu.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })On the opposite end, Mujoe is the incompetent but sympathetic captain of the Hige Hige Bandits who must deal every day with a useless robot workforce, his alcoholic father/boss Bagular, unrequited love for the local bartender Mama, and a massive crotch bulge that makes everything he says sound like an innuendo. His teammates are the Mad Scientist Dr. Mechadoc, an army of the group's namesake robots who only speak in "Hige's", the one Hige with a deep voice who speaks English, and the mysterious cyborg Max.Where the original series is largely a Monster of the Week kid's cartoon with lots of Character Development, Jetters Abridged revels in its sheer insane ridiculousness. Character personalities and motivations are flipped on their heads, relationships are thrown around for the hell of it, and Birdy talks.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })The series did not have a consistent update schedule, to the point of it becoming a running joke outside the series. Episode 3 was released on November 30th, 2011, Episode 4 the next year on September 3, Episode 5 the next year on June 21 and Episode 6 on Valentine's Day, 2014. There were plans to resume Jetters with a consistent schedule following Sgt. Frog Abridged's conclusion in December 2015, but that idea was put to rest after Thorn and Travis concluded their working partnership in 2017 due to Travis' hectic life. The show was quietly canceled after that, as Thorn has no intention of continuing it without Travis.

Kafka Komedy: Nothing goes right for the Jetters. Protect a treasure from the Hige Hige Bandits? Their client is a bigger threat to the universe than them. Stop the new villain? End up in jail for genocide. Finally get out and get back to work? They're broke and they lose their house by the next episode. And so on and so on...

Black Comedy: Death and suffering are used frequently as comedic tools. The Jetters are perpetually broke and hungry, the people they help turn out to be more evil than the Hige Hige Bandits, everyone does horrible things to each other, and if you're not a main character you're likely to get killed and eaten.

Verbal Tic: Two carried over from the original anime: Bongo ends most sentences with "Bongo", even if it's just a one-word sentence. Top Bomber says (with rolled R's) "Guru guru", the Japanese onomatopoeia for spinning. The abridged series adds him ending every sentence with "-ururu", which annoys Mujoe so much that he sends Top Bomber to a nebula.

Idiot Hero: Defied. Thorn specifically wanted Shiro to not be a stupid protagonist like is found in every other abridged series (including her own), though Shiro could still exhibit naivete due to being a child. Every other character, however... Let's just say there's a reason BigTUnit1 calls the Jetters a "ragtag team of suck".

Designated Hero: Mighty In-Universe. He fights crime, rescues orphans, rebuilds dams, etc, but he also punts children like footballs, kidnaps girls to pass them off as distressed damsels on whole other planets, and apparently hits on women like a total sleaze. Everyone lampshades it to hell and back. By Episode 5, it's clear that he was a Bunny-Ears Lawyer: complete Jerkass, but was otherwise great at everything.

Physical God: The Bombermen have the powers of gods, including creation from nothing, revival of the dead, and instant killing, (when Louie gets involved, all three can apply). Mighty lampshades this in the first episode:

Cloudcuckoolander: All of the characters are nuts, but Birdy is the standout. Everything he says is a One-Liner or thought comparable in style to Steven Wright and Jack Handey, though he says it in such a cool-headed, calm and collected manner that you can't tell if he's insane or just really deep. If there was ever a case of Makes Just as Much Sense in Context, Birdy said it, mostly because what he says is never in context to begin with.

No Mouth: Multiple characters. Thorn loved editing the first episode since there was so little lip-syncing. All of the Bombermen have their mouths covered by their jumpsuits, though the episode 1 Cold Open suggests that they literally have no mouths or ears. Gangu and Max both talk out of speakers on their bodies. Shout's dad Twist hides his face behind an omnipresent newspaper, making him effectively this within the show.

Crossover

comment
Crossover: Birdy made two separate vocal appearances in Sgt. Frog Abridged, both of which referenced Jetters Abridged. The writers are coy about if the two series take place in the same universe or if Birdy is just that transcendental, given that Jetters Abridged is written to never reference SFA. According to the SFA Ask Blog, Ask GiroDoro SFA, the Keronians have tried to invade Planet Bomber, only to fail. Giroro and Dororo make a comment on how lucky they are that the super-strong Bombermen are peaceful. Later they mention that Mighty was a key reason the invasion failed, and he was kept away from the peace talks because he's "kind of a dick".

 Jetters Abridged (Web Video) / int_eca7a21d
comment
Song Parody: The theme song, "Bulge Bomb", is a parody of "Car Bomb" by Negativland. Instead of car parts, it lists off various silly things in Bomberman Jetters and the fan translation (hence the line "'Fire' in English is called 'Fire'"). Birdy provides his own lyrics to Talking Heads' "Burning Down the House" and The Bee Gees' "Stayin' Alive" in Episode 3. Housing Bomber's two lines are parodied from "Brick House" by Commodores.

Brick Joke: Louie's death in the first episode. It becomes a running gag every episode after. Mighty kills a shark in the first episode. At the end of the episode he gets attacked by an unknown laser, which the writers confirm is from the shark's brother. Shiro shouts "RAAAAAAID!" at the start of Episode 2 while stealing food from Shout's scooter. At the end of the episode he screams it again while spraying an evil ant colony with Raid. Birdy being himself in Episode 2: Shiro dreams about cobras raining down on him at the start of Episode 5. Later in the episode he summons a rain of cobras in real life.
