10 Best South Park Episodes 

10. Good Times With Weapons

Since South Park has existed for so long, there has been plenty of times where they've broken out of their signature style. Fans have been able to see the residents of the snowy Colorado town in various animation techniques, but one of the most memorable has to be their time parodying anime.

In the first episode of season eight - Good Times With Weapons - the boys attend a county fair and find a booth selling "authentic weapons from the far east". Of course, they end up purchasing them and imagine themselves as stylised anime warriors. As expected, disaster occurs, as children really shouldn't have access to genuinely deadly weapons.

While this episode is mostly memorable for the boys' hilarious anime-styled depictions, the fundamental story is also a laugh riot. Seeing them get into trouble because of their naivety is incredibly fun to watch, but the lengths they go to in order to hide their crimes - like accidentally throwing a ninja star into poor Butters face - is utterly dramatic and gruesome.

Additionally, the poorly translated battle anime song - Let's Fighting Love - is perfect for the joke, and will be stuck in your head for days.
