Despito the Musical - Vanilla on Ice! HD 180p Trailer
Despito the Musical - Vanilla on Ice! HD 180p Trailer is a project in the remix tree, and the twenty-seventh in the main branch. It featured an extended intro sequence parodying the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure opening "Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town", as well as being a prologue of sorts to the Crazy Noisy Showdown arc. It also established personalities for Paula, Ian, and Toast, based off of the JoJo's Part 4 protagonists, that would become the standard way to represent them going forward.
Summary
A 90-second intro sequence plays, based on the JoJo's opening Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town: Josuke Higashikata is replaced with Paula Denton, Koichi Hirose is replaced with Avocado Ian, and Okuyasu Nijimura is replaced with Toast Michaelwaver, along with many other character substitutions. The song playing is "Crazy Noisy Remix Tree": a cover by turtlehat of Crazy Noisy Bizarre Remix, with slightly rewritten lyrics.
The scene then switches to Paula, Ian, and Toast hanging out at the Crazy Noisy Street Corner. Paula says she's bored and asks Ian how he's doing; Ian responds that he's fallen in love with Anina Arquaz. Paula points out she tried to kidnap him last week, and Ian says he somehow doesn't feel mad at her anymore. Paula asks for Toast's input, and Toast responds that he doesn't really understand that well, he's not that smart you know.
The final scene is of the Popato Chisp spinning as turtlehat sings an acapella cover of the JoJo intro "End of the World ~Sono Chi no Kioku~".

Trivia
- The title references the JoJo's character Vanilla Ice, turning his name into a typical title format for musicals performed on ice skates.
- The intro song went through a number of small changes. Upon release, Crazy Noisy Remix Tree was the only song available. Later, turtlehat changed the default song to Crazy Noisy Bizarre Remix, but added functionality to change it back to Crazy Noisy Remix Tree if the viewer types the word "remix." This was done because he felt bad about supplanting ZiqwerkelSharda's cover with his own. The change stayed until ZiqwerkelSharda noticed it and discussed it with him, causing him to remember that changing and personalizing each project is kinda the whole point of the remix tree. turtlehat then changed the default song back to Crazy Noisy Remix Tree, but kept the Easter egg to change it to Crazy Noisy Bizarre Remix.
- This update is documented with a jokingly long-winded and redundant explanation in the Instructions.
- The silhouettes that represent fishfritters, ZiqwerkelSharda, and turtlehat are a Bulborb from Pikmin, Asgore from Undertale, and Presto from the Dungeons & Dragons TV series, respectively. These were the profile pictures each was using on Scratch when the project was released.

- In the intro animation, before Toast knocks over the can, his shadow shows the silhouette of Space Dio holding a GEP gun, which morphs into JC Denton from Deus Ex. In the original animation from JoJo's, this shot showed Okuyasu with the silhouettes of his brother Keicho and their father. turtlehat thought their father was Enya Geil at first because of their shared connection to the Stand Arrow, and so included JC because the GEP gun was originally from Deus Ex. Space Dio has no past relation to the GEP gun, and seems to be included as a wildcard.
- The map of Æøü shown in the intro has a logo of the letter "D" in the center. This is a reference to the Duwang translation of JoJo's: the original intro shows the logo of the town of Morioh, which is translated as Duwang.
- turtlehat is the only remixer shown fully in the intro instead of as a silhouette. ZiqwerkelSharda and fishfritters could have been shown fully if they took the places of Character 1 and Helia in the dancing scene, who had previously only appeared in a thumbnail. turtlehat decided against this, since the original intro shows Hazamada and Tamami here, and he didn't want to associate his friends with them because of how awful they are.
- According to a note in Crazy Diamond's sprite, turtlehat originally wanted to make Star Platinum a recolored version of Crazy Diamond, but as he was drawing it he thought it looked so bad that he stopped working on it immediately.
- Notes in the sprites for Ian, Paula, and Toast reveal voice directions turtlehat wrote for each character:
- Ian's note says "sounds like kangyi," referencing Koichi's name in the Duwang translation of JoJo's, Guanglai Kangyi. Specifically, turtlehat imitated Vinesauce Joel's voice for Koichi in his dub of the comic.
- Paula's note says "Boston accent," inspired by Josuke's voice in a fandub by Senile Snake.
- Toast's note says "swallowed a gravel driveway," imitating Okuyasu's incredibly gravely voice in the original Japanese version of the anime.
- turtlehat accidentally drew a small black dot on the Popato Chisp's 16th costume. He decided to lampshade this with YouTube clickbait–style red circles, arrows, and text.

Modified Lyrics:
All these endless patterns / I don’t know what to do
It’s all so complex / and I just can’t see through
The tree keeps growing / and it’s all / the fault of me and you
U yeh!
(Looking for a tiny semblance) Of logic to this chaos
(Each installment in the series) Creating more mystery
(Suddenly appearing on Scratch) A giant senseless jumble / that nobody can un-der-staaand
Every day brings more JoJo memes / piling on more references / and there’s still way more to see
