[[djninjalovemistake vs. AshcrementVII]] accounts for two matches with the same lineup of players, with the first match taking place between April 8 and May 18, 2011. It was played as a part of {{GameBop}}'s [[Tennis Shuffle]], a mid-2011 event casual-in-scope that was meant to create matches based on randomized lineups in lieu of there being no tournaments currently taking place; at the time the final match of the [[3-Way Tennis Tournament]] was still considered to be indefinitely stalled, and the [[Doubles Cup 2]] was still 5 months out from taking place. Much of the match revolves around the use of the early Studio Gainax anime ''Gunbuster'', which first appears towards the end of the serve and is subsequently made a main feature of the match from Ashcrement's Round 2 onward, along with the ''Pokemon'' animated series as a secondary feature. This is reinforced by the recurring appearances of a gif of Palpitoad and a gif of the Pokemon tennis player (used for djninja's "FirstRateSmasher" alias' avatar) from ''Pokemon Black + White''(DS, 2010) and various images of recurring Pokemon Champion Cynthia/Shirona across the match. The original OVA for ''Mobile Police Patlabor'' is added in the final round of the match, with Ashcrement teasing the mystery connection between it and ''Gunbuster'' in his video description(likely alluding to the fact that voice actress Noriko Hidaka, who portrays ''Gunbuster'' main character Noriko Takaya, also portrays Prince Uru in ''Patlabor''). | [[djninjalovemistake vs. AshcrementVII]] accounts for two matches with the same lineup of players, with the first match taking place between April 8 and May 18, 2011.

Described as "A very visual match" by Ashcrement<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbgLZxoWv-M</ref>, this match is very driven by erosive, ethereal composite-based editing based around the use of music both sourced and remixed from existing footage, with most rounds ending with at least a partial YTPMV. It was the ninth match played by {{djninjalovemistake}} and the fifth match played by {{AshcrementVII}}. It was first compiled into a single video on the YouWouldBeWelcome account in September 2025. | Described as "A very visual match" by Ashcrement<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbgLZxoWv-M</ref>, this match is very driven by erosive, ethereal composite-based editing based around the use of music both sourced and remixed from existing footage, with most rounds ending with at least a partial YTPMV.
