[[Moogle vs. theHappyFungus]] was a [[Youtube Poop]]/Video [[tennis]] match that took place between June 12 and July 7, 2008. Moogle made their first appearance in the then-current Tennis Cafe thread on the [[YouChew]] forums on May 18 speaking about seeking a potential match, which theHappyFungus immediately answered to -- this was one of only two full matches played by Moogle on their original YTP/tennis account MoogleAbuse. Sources used include ''Elephant''(2003), ''My Fair Lady''(1964), ''Hotel Mario''(CD-i, 1994), ''Arashi No Yoru Ni''(2005), ''Dune''(1984), ''Final Fantasy X-2''(PS2, 2003), the Genesis concert film ''Live at Shepperton Studios 1973'' (in which they are performing "Dancing With The Moonlit Knight"(1973)), ''Final Fantasy VI''(SNES, 1994), ''Final Fantasy X''(PS2, 2001), ''Link: The Faces of Evil''(CD-i, 1993), ''Seven Samurai''(1954), "something for the hard of thinking" by conradslater, ''Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty''(PS2, 2001), ''Meet The Sniper'', ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', ''The Adventures of Sonic The Hedgehog'', ''Paranoid Park''(2007), [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_UD8M6L6Cc Rosewine @ Anime Expo 2007], ''Black Cat, White Cat''(1998), Norm Augustinus, ''Final Fantasy XII''(PS2, 2006), [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y69fZ5GdDxI Mikael Akerfeldt on Porcupine Tree.], footage of Mikael Akerfeldt performing on stage with Opeth and other clips, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_DV9b0x7v4 CaramellDansen], ''Samurai Pizza Cats'', the infomercial for Hulk Hogan's Ultimate Grill, ''Sanshiro Sugata''(1943), ''Pulp Fiction''(1994), Tay Zonday performing "Chocolate Rain"(2007), ''Barney & Friends'', ''Rambo''(2008), the songs "Running in the 90s"(1998) by Max Coveri, "Unrestrained Growth"(2007) by Buckethead, "Shadowman"(2003) by Nightingale, "Fabulous Muscles"(2004) by Xiu Xiu, "Another Night"(1993) by Real McCoy, and "Stairway to Heaven"(1971) by Led Zeppelin, and the final moments of [[conradslater vs. Misselaineous10|Misselaineous10's "You'd be left questioning if infinity really exists"(2007)]], used as a humorous fake out ("LOL FUCK THAT").

It was the first match played by Moogle<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/2.html#post-1310429</ref> and the twelfth match played by theHappyFungus.<ref>theHappyFungus never actually filled out her roster, but her games in YouChew's old Tennis: Completed section under first theSadMushroom and then this alias include UberTE, pimpsahoy, KonXII, UberTE (rematch),  RabbitSnore, RAKninja, captpan6, Markglist, FourTwoNineStudios, zacheatscrackers, Domorato, NS2, and then this match.</ref> A notable theme throughout the match is gun violence, featuring a variety of material involving characters using guns, with multiple edits in the match being characters from different sources shooting at and being shot at by each other. This eventually ends in an relatively violent Round 6, where characters in ''Rambo'' all meet their bloody demise to the gun-wielding characters in ''Pulp Fiction'', ''Meet The Sniper'' and ''Black Cat, White Cat'', including a scene where it is implied that Major Pa Tee Tint was disemboweled by the Sniper's signature kukri. A secondary theme throughout the match are deliberately "bad" YTPMV segments only involving amateurly pitch-shifting clips from one source, with the songs only occasionally given BGM to indicate the song being covered and with notes sometimes missed or skipped; the songs range from classical compositions, rock songs like "Stairway to Heaven"("SORRY, IT HAD TO BE DONE") to video game songs such as the ''Super Mario Bros.'' main theme to Touhou songs such as "U. N. Owen was Her?(Flandre's Theme)". theHappyFungus eventually concludes this bit with on screen text that reads "NO MORE MUSIC!". Moogle's contributions to the match were immediately noticed by other tennis regulars of the time, with theHappyFungus herself saying "Moogles round 3 is a fucking masterpiece." RabbitSnore agreed, exclaiming, "Holy Jesus... You're absolutely fucking right. Moogle is really, really good."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/38.html#post-267447</ref><ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/38.html#post-267475</ref> By the time that Round 5 was uploaded, Moogle vs. theHappyFungus was being roundly praised; Rabbit further declared "Happy vs. Moogle is the most amazing tennis I've seen in a while(...) It's so fucking perfect. Like the games we used to rant on and on about in the old days."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/49.html#post-342120</ref><ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/49.html#post-342143</ref> NS2 added "That's what I thought back when it started. My mind was literally blown, blown like it never was before when it came to [YTP]."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/49.html#post-342131</ref> Both players would additionally refer to the match as "perfection" and "truly inspirational".<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/49.html#post-342156</ref><ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/49.html#post-342170</ref> Moogle and NS2 additionally regarded theHappyFungus' Round 6 as respectively "Fantastic." and "It's more than fantastic, but I can't find the right word."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/5691-moogleabuse-vs-thehappyfungus/1.html#post-347886</ref><ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/5691-moogleabuse-vs-thehappyfungus/1.html#post-347901</ref> Moogle expressed "I honestly didn't expect my first match would be so good and even considered saying 'screw it' and forfeiting after round 2 & 4."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/5691-moogleabuse-vs-thehappyfungus/1.html#post-347917</ref>

Moogle accidentally closed the "MoogleAbuse" account on December 24, 2008<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/159.html#post-1135611</ref>, and subsequently created the new account "ffgasm" where they reuploaded their past tennis material, including their rounds for this match. Round 1 however was deleted in April 2009, with Moogle explaining "I removed it for safety knowing YouTube's been removing Running in the 90s vids for copyright, and nobody really cares about that video for that matter. Nobody even noticed my removing it."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/221.html#post-1566239</ref> Round 1 has never resurfaced since and is considered currently lost. theHappyFungus' rounds had previously been lost due to her channel becoming terminated by action from a third party (likely that of Norm Augustinus) in the mid-2010's, but were all restored through the efforts of [[The Great Restoration]]. Rounds 2-6 were first compiled into a single video on the [[YouWouldBeWelcome]] account in April 2026.
