Fanon

The fandom seemed to come out of nowhere, the show being an instant hit. In fanfiction, one common trope is to explore the world of the end credits theme's.

YouTuber Octopimp created an abridged series called "50% off". The abridged series pulls jokes from the fandom, as well as confirming some fan favorite pairings. Many consider it to have its own fanbase.
