Hold on to your asses, ass-holders.

Buttlord GT can best be described as an Affectionate Parody of Dragonball Z. 'Affectionate' in the sense that it takes the tropes present in DBZ and takes them Up to Eleven.

Basically, there are three jokes here:

1) Dragonball Z is boring.

2) Dragonball Z is kind of homoerotic.

3) Groin Attacks are funny.

Crass and immature, but hilarious nonetheless.

    • Also the frequent references to "getting sent to another dimension", a direct reference to the Dragonball dub's bowdlerizations. Taken to its logical conclusion when King Pie, who lives in the "Another Dimension", takes a shortcut home by shooting himself.
  • Nice Guy: The comic plays off Buttlord's final form as this, but it soon becomes apparent it doesn't do anything to reduce his destructive nature. Quite the opposite, actually.
  • Nice Hat: Screw's baseball cap, adorned with a picture of a screw. He even delays his arrival to the fight when he loses it.
  • Nice Job Shoryukening The Guy Holding The Planet Together In The Balls, Hero
  • Noodle Incident: Happens naturally as the result of referencing material parodying events from earlier in Dragonball Z than the Namek saga:
  • Omnicidal Maniac: Buttlord. Yes, the hero of the story is more of one than any of the villains in the comic. Most apparent when he socks Huge in the nuts and kills him for no reason other than to be a dick while he's holding the planet together from a gigantic crack. Which, by the way, was also caused by Buttlord being a destructive idiot.
  • Planet Explodes Everyone Dies
  • Power Makes Your Hair Grow: Taken to ridiculous extremes. One "Hair Boner" is easily twenty feet tall.
  • Pre-Mortem One-Liner
  • Shout-Out: At one point, Buttlord and King Pie are playing King of Fighters inside their capsule. Once Buttlord reaches his final form, he's sporting Dan Hibiki's hairstyle and Dee Jay's pants.
    • Near the end of the comic, Buttlord demands Brad to pump up the music on his car's stereo, which starts playing Eminem's Lose Yourself, complete with Buttlord donning a hoodie. Then Snowflake shows up and whacks him in the face with a street sign that reads 8 Mile.
  • Smoke Shield

Screw: He is obviously finished. No one could survive that much dust.

  • Toilet Humor: In spades, and occasionally featuring an actual toilet.
  • Top-Heavy Guy: Mr. Huge is perhaps the most extreme example of this in any media.
  • Trash Talk: omnipresent, and often as bizarre as the rest of the comic.
