[[theHappyFungus vs. NS2]] was a [[Youtube Poop]]/Video [[tennis]] match that took place between June 21 and 28, 2008.

theHappyFungus vs. NS2 was a Youtube Poop/Video tennis match that took place between June 21 and 28, 2008. NS2 had notated down a desire to play an "anime-only" match in March 2008 in the earliest version of his roster, and was initially hesitant about the idea that this would be welcomed, fearing getting "flamed" for desiring the concept.[1] RabbitSnore, Crash2991 and theHappyFungus all were embracing of it however when it was first brought up, with the latter first expressing her desire to play NS2 on March 10.[2] Some days later, NS2 expressed his enjoyment and regular use of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni through the posting of his solo video "When the Cicadas Poop"(2008), which happened to also be an anime that theHappyFungus specialized in using in her work and was interested in seeing it be edited by others.[3] The match was officially confirmed to soon happen in April, and after some deliberating on concept became not only an all-anime match, but a match that focused entirely on Higurashi no Naku Koro ni as the only source used for all 6 rounds.[4] This was one of a series of matches played during the Spring and Summer of 2008 that saw the consolidation of the first generation of tennis staff as players, friends and community presences. These matches include theHappyFungus vs. RabbitSnore, theHappyFungus vs. RAKninja, Crash2991 vs. NS2, theHappyFungus vs. Nuthead, Crash2991 vs. RAKninja, Crash2991 vs. strong414bad, RabbitSnore vs. Nuthead, and Nuthead vs. NS2.

It was the eleventh match completed by theHappyFungus[5] and the sixth match completed by NS2.[6] Crash2991 was an immediate fan of the match, writing "I haven't laughed during a tennis match in a while.[...]The fact that this match isn't absolute brain rape tennis makes me love it more."[7][8] RabbitSnore, who was looking forward to the match immediately after it was announced[9], wrote impromptu reviews of all 6 rounds as it progressed, regarding theHappyFungus' Round 3 as "hard as fucking steel"[10] and NS2's more-intense-than-average Round 6 as "tough as nails".[11] NS2 upon uploading Round 6 remarked "I have no idea what I just created." regarding it's style[12], and was somewhat critical of it upon completion, feeling that they "kind of cheated off of Happy's work."[13] Both Rabbit and theHappyFungus (who also felt like they "cheated") however were enthusiastic about it -- Happy remarked "You win the internet with that"[14] and Rabbit was "thoroughly impressed", describing it as "a worthy adaptation of the style that Happy used. Kind of like a quick and graceful mimicry of an opponent in a fight."[15] SkyGuy16/Triple_sSs regarded NS2's Round 6 as the "Most epic thing you've ever made."[16], and Lightning Spike regarded the full match as "one the most, if not the most, epic tennis match ever."[17] NS2's final round also contains a small, humorous callback to one of his signature solo videos, "They Just Tried To Kill Me"(2008), which fittingly focuses entirely on Higurashi as well. Of who he thought was the superior player, Rabbit simply surmised "I might have to call a tie on this one."[18] sonicnerd23, Temeku/MTB710, seanvol, MAZZ0Murder, Moogle, eletricalmonkss and GorillaCrap35 were all contemporary fans of the match[19][20][21][22][23][24], and ChrisGendo subsequently listed it as one of her favorites in 2011.[25] NS2's Round 2, "Shion Plays the Game in Public"(2008) is his fourth most popular tennis round, holding a respectable 3,500 views. Moogle's Round 1 for the Tennis Staff Multiway, "What, do you want me to play with your tail?"(2009), features a segment dedicated to Higurashi no Naku Koro ni as one of a few direct references to theHappyFungus and NS2 as a result of this match taking place.

theHappyFungus' rounds have been lost since her channel was terminated by action from a third party (likely that of Norm Augustinus) in the mid-2010's. NS2's rounds continue to survive as of February 2026.
