What’s going on everyone? It’s TheNSCL, welcome back to TV Tropes!
TheNSCL (TheNiskel) is an anime/cartoon reviewer and Let's Player who has been active since 2011.

He is perhaps best known for his special method of reviewing, the "Review 3, 30, 300" - every review like this is actually three reviews in one. The "Review 3" sums up the show/his thoughts in three seconds, the "Review 30" does the same in thirty seconds, while the "Review 300" is a more in-depth look in the series in 300+ seconds.

He has since dropped this in favor of doing Let's Plays of various video games. For starters, his knowledge of the Resident Evil lore and canon, it's STAGGERING

In his let's plays, if the game has Co-op, he'll do a dual commentary with his friend UltraDirectorJesterπŸ‘ Image
. Hilarity Ensues if Friendly Fire is possible.


TheNSCL features examples of:

  • 100% Completion: He aims to complete a game with this in mind. Whether it's for bonus stuff or exra content he adds for the completion.
  • All Men Are Perverts: TheNSCL isn't above making jokes about his lust for certain female anime characters.
  • Berserk Button:
    TheNSCL: Oh my Lord!
    UDJ: Fuck me!
    TheNSCL: Fuck this!
    TheNSCL: Now that we can actually break things, I've got a few things to break. For example, you!
    • Niskel has a genuine dislike for hand-holding for the games he plays, since he knows what he's doing when he gets into detail over what game he's playing. Despite this, his fans has been insistent about it especially if the Dead Rising games are involved.
  • Big Guy, Little Guy: The NSCL and UDJ, respectively.
  • Curse Cut Short: Used in the 6teen review as an example of how the show does it:
    Example Person #1: Oh, you son of a bi-
    Example Person #2: (randomly enters) Hey, guys, what's up?
    TheNSCL: (reading the back of the DVD) ...from the brilliant minds that brought you...School Days?! What the fu-
  • Fun with Acronyms: Played with in the High School DxD review:
    TheNSCL: With that title and those tatas, what else did you think DxD stood for? Dungeons & Dragons? Dumb and Dumber? Dark and Depressing? Deplorable Dialogue? Yeah, that might be it. Oh! Maybe it stands for don't watch it!
  • Gag Censor: A deck of cards is used heavily to censor clips with bare breasts in the High School DxD review.
  • Have a Nice Death: He will show possible deaths in Resident Evil games if possible.
  • Irrational Hatred: TheNSCL simply cannot explain his hatred for 6teen. "From every conceivable angle, this is a good show. And I hate it."
  • Man of a Thousand Voices: Both TheNSCL and UDJ are pretty good mimicking voices and pitches, Lampshaded in the Resident Evil 5 Let's Play in which it's stated some people thought that Barry's wackier lines were in-game, when in reality they were done by UDJ.
  • Meaningful Name: The "N" of his name is based on the first and last letters of his real name. "Niskel" is NSCL spoken phonetically.
  • Mistaken for Masturbating: TheNSCL shaking his phone rapidly in the review of the Hyperdimension Neptunia app. Noire exclaims "That's gross!", as the app is programmed to associate the rapid movement with...something else.
  • Papa Wolf: Again, his hatred of Lolicon and Shotacon since he doesn't want to see children being sexually exploited.
  • Punctuated! For! Emphasis!: A Running Gag is whenever he encounters a letter that heavily emphasizes a word, he starts Suddenly Shouting.
  • Running Gag: He likes the Dead Rising series, but he tends to get irritated with someone asking him if he'll play the next game of the series. His response is to delay an LP of the games to an unreasonable amount of years, and increasing it if they continue.
  • The Scrappy: Invoked. Niskel and UDJ absolutely despise Sheva from Resident Evil 5.
  • Self-Deprecation: In the No Game No Life review:
    TheNSCL: And seeing as I have no game and no life, this is the perfect match! The anime made for me! (whimpers)
  • Shout-Out: The three-second review of Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl: "I'm in lesbians with this show."
  • Who Would Be Stupid Enough?: Used in the High School DxD review, as TheNSCL asks "Who would pay money to own this garbage?". Cut to him staring at his own DVD copy of the series.
  • Withholding Their Name: while we do know their faces, UDJ and TheNSCL haven't come forward telling their real names to the public; in the Spyro Reignited Trilogy Let's play, TheNSCL comments that he has a friend named Chrisnote His name is Chris.
