Whether he’s cracking jokes in the middle of a battle or turning into the world’s most useless animal at the worst possible moment, Beast Boy is the living, breathing (and sometimes barking, squawking, or oinking) comic relief of the Teen Titans. With his green skin, boundless energy, and complete lack of shame, Beast Boy brings a chaotic brand of humor to the team that’s equal parts endearing and hilarious. But beyond his puns and animal antics lies a master of comedic timing, physical gags, and perfectly awkward moments.
Across the original Teen Titans series, Beast Boy gave us dozens of laugh-out-loud scenes. From pranks gone wrong to bizarre transformations to pop culture parodies, he stole every scene he flopped, flew, or flailed into. So, buckle up—whether you’re a Beast Boy fan or just someone who appreciates a good fart joke mixed with unexpected heart, here are the ten funniest Beast Boy moments that had us in stitches.
#10: Beast Boy’s “Tofu Battle Cry”
One of Beast Boy’s most consistent character quirks is his obsession with tofu. It’s not just a dietary preference—it’s a core part of his personality, right up there with his love of video games and his inability to focus on anything for more than thirty seconds. But in the episode “Deep Six,” Beast Boy takes his tofu pride to absolutely hilarious heights. When the Titans are battling the underwater villain Trident, Beast Boy doesn’t just leap into action—he dives in screaming “FOR TOFU!” like it’s a noble war cry. It’s so unexpected, so passionate, and so completely on-brand that it instantly transforms a high-stakes underwater mission into a comedic moment.
The whole scene plays out like a fever dream. Beast Boy shapeshifts into a barrage of sea creatures—octopus, swordfish, pufferfish—each with its own comedic spin. He shouts tofu slogans mid-fight, slips around like a green eel with ADHD, and manages to distract both Trident and the audience from the seriousness of the mission. While the other Titans are approaching the conflict with careful strategy, Beast Boy is doing dolphin flips while yelling about soy. And the best part? Nobody even questions him. They’re so used to his bizarre antics that they just roll with it.
What makes this moment particularly funny is that it captures Beast Boy’s strange ability to be both completely ridiculous and unexpectedly brave. On the surface, screaming about tofu in battle is laughable, but the guy is all heart. He’s charging into danger with gusto. He truly believes in what he’s saying. The comedy comes from his sincerity just as much as the absurdity of the words. It’s a classic Beast Boy contradiction—he looks like he’s messing around, but underneath, he’s committed to the cause, tofu or not.
Interestingly, this moment also sparked a cult following among fans. “For Tofu!” became a bit of a meme, turning up on fan art, T-shirts, and forum usernames. It solidified tofu as not just Beast Boy’s dietary choice, but a punchline that encapsulated his entire personality. The writers knew exactly what they were doing—this line wasn’t just tossed in. It was a character-defining moment disguised as a throwaway joke.
On a deeper level, this moment reveals how Beast Boy uses humor and weirdness to stay positive in stressful situations. His battle cry, while absurd, lightens the mood and reminds his team—and the audience—that sometimes, the best way to get through a fight is with a laugh. And when you’re facing a villain who multiplies himself and causes chaos at sea, why not yell about soy protein?
“For Tofu!” remains one of Beast Boy’s most quotable moments. It’s quick, bizarre, and completely effective at making you laugh. It encapsulates everything that makes him lovable and exasperating all at once. He’s not the strongest Titan. He’s not the most serious. But he is, without a doubt, the one who would lead an army into battle under a tofu flag—and somehow make it work.
#9: The Stank Ball Game
In the wonderfully weird episode “Can’t Keep a Good Villain Down,” the Titans engage in one of their most nonsensical pastimes: a game called Stank Ball. Of course, Beast Boy is the heart and soul of this imaginary sport, taking full command of the rules, refereeing, scoring system, and general absurdity. And if you’re wondering what the rules of Stank Ball actually are—don’t bother. Even the characters can’t follow them.
Beast Boy explains the game in a flurry of contradictory, made-up logic. “Double stink combo!” he shouts, while throwing a ball backwards over his head. “No takesies backsies!” he cries, diving onto the floor in what looks like a painful yoga pose. His enthusiasm is unmatched, his volume is maximum, and his sense of strategy is nonexistent. Cyborg tries to keep up. Raven looks like she wants to teleport to another dimension. Robin demands order, and Starfire is genuinely trying to understand the rules like it’s a cultural lesson. But Beast Boy? He’s thriving in the chaos.
The brilliance of this moment is in its complete lack of structure. Stank Ball isn’t just a game—it’s a reflection of Beast Boy’s mind. Fast, erratic, loud, and gloriously unpredictable. He transforms into random animals’ mid-game, each with no real purpose except to add to the spectacle. A chicken lays an egg on the field. A walrus blocks the “goal,” whatever that is. A squirrel steals the ball. It’s slapstick comedy at its finest, blending animation gags with voice performance and total absurdity.
One of the funniest details is that Beast Boy clearly makes up the rules as he goes. If someone else scores, he calls a foul. If he scores, it’s “quadruple bonus time.” It’s infuriating for everyone involved—except him. And what really sells the comedy is how seriously he takes it. He insists on wearing a jersey, gives passionate post-game interviews to a fake camera, and awards himself MVP. Watching the other Titans slowly lose their minds as he spirals deeper into nonsense is the cherry on top.
What makes this moment stand out isn’t just the comedy—it’s the character insight. This is how Beast Boy copes with downtime. When there’s no villain to fight, he needs to create excitement. He can’t sit still. He doesn’t know how to just be. So, he invents games, declares himself the champ, and annoys everyone in a 20-foot radius. It’s hilarious and weirdly relatable.
Stank Ball is a perfect example of Teen Titans letting itself be goofy, and Beast Boy is the ideal ringleader. The moment lives on in fan lore, not just because it’s funny, but because it’s pure. It’s Beast Boy in his natural state—chaotic, creative, and completely unhinged in the best way.
#8: Beast Boy’s Disastrous Date with Terra
Beast Boy’s romantic feelings for Terra were one of the most emotional arcs in the original Teen Titans series—but leave it to BB to turn even the most heartfelt moment into an awkward comedy of errors. In “Titan Rising,” Beast Boy finally gets a chance to take Terra on a semi-date. It’s not a candlelit dinner or a romantic stroll—it’s nachos at Titans Tower. And it’s one of the most unintentionally hilarious disasters in cartoon dating history.
From the very start, Beast Boy is trying way too hard. He shows up with way too much cheese, a cheap tie over his usual jumpsuit, and the kind of nervous energy you’d expect from a teenager trying to impress his crush. He launches into a series of animal-themed jokes that land with a painful thud. “What do you call a goat that lip-syncs?” he asks. “Billy Vanilli.” Terra just blinks. It’s like watching someone perform stand-up comedy in a soundproof room. Brutally funny because it’s so painfully real.
The transformations don’t help. Beast Boy shapeshifts mid-sentence, turning into a kitten to be “cute,” a llama to seem “unique,” and a penguin for… reasons unclear. During one of his attempts at humor, he morphs into a chimpanzee and spills his drink everywhere. He tries to clean it up by turning into an elephant, then crashes through the table. It’s a trainwreck—and it’s absolutely perfect.
What makes this moment special is how deeply it understands teenage awkwardness. Beast Boy wants so badly to impress Terra, and that need turns him into a flailing green tornado of cringe. He doesn’t know how to be still, how to be cool, or how to stop talking. It’s relatable to anyone who’s ever been a nervous wreck on a first date—and hilarious for everyone watching from the safety of their couch.
And yet, there’s a sweetness to it. Terra doesn’t run away. She laughs. She teases him. And for all his awkwardness, she sees something charming beneath the chaos. That blend of comedy and sincerity is what makes this moment one of Beast Boy’s funniest—and most human.
#7: The “Dog Day Afternoon” Mishap
In the episode “The Beast Within,” things take a dark, introspective turn for Beast Boy when his powers begin to evolve in ways he can’t control. But before the emotional weight kicks in, we’re treated to one of the funniest sneak missions gone completely sideways—and it’s all thanks to Beast Boy’s overly enthusiastic approach to espionage. Tasked with infiltrating a high-tech facility, Beast Boy chooses what he considers the perfect stealth form: a dog. Logical, right? Until you realize this is Beast Boy we’re talking about.
The transformation starts well enough. He turns into a sprightly green Labrador and trots along confidently, tongue out, tail wagging. But within seconds, the instincts kick in, and the mission dissolves into a canine comedy routine. He gets distracted by a fire hydrant and pauses to sniff it intensely. Then he starts barking at random objects, alerting every security drone in the vicinity. He rolls in some mysterious sludge with pure joy and tries to chase a squirrel. All while the other Titans are trying to stay undetected. Raven glares. Robin mutters death threats under his breath. Cyborg facepalms. And Beast Boy? He’s just living his best dog life.
What makes the moment even better is the sheer realism of it—at least in Beast Boy terms. Of course he’d get sidetracked by his animal instincts. Of course, he’d blow their cover because he couldn’t resist a good belly scratch. It’s the perfect example of his good intentions being completely steamrolled by his chaotic energy. The team brought him along for stealth, but what they got was a tail-wagging liability.
The real comedic brilliance is in the contrast. The setting is dark and ominous. The mission is high-stakes. But here’s Beast Boy, panting, barking, and chasing shadows like he’s in a Saturday morning cartoon. It cuts the tension perfectly and reminds us that even in the most intense episodes, Beast Boy is still, unapologetically, himself.
There’s also an unexpected realism to how the rest of the team reacts. They don’t scream or overreact—they just groan. Because they’ve seen this before. Beast Boy turning a covert operation into a zoo exhibit is just another Tuesday. And their deadpan responses only make the moment funnier. Raven’s “Remind me why we brought him again?” is delivered with surgical dryness, and it lands hard.
This moment works not only because it’s hilarious but because it’s so Beast Boy. He’s the lovable screw-up, the guy who tries to help but ends up being the punchline—and still somehow makes you adore him more. It’s a reminder that his animal powers aren’t just for combat—they’re also perfect for comedy gold.
#6: The “Manly Mustache” Moment
“Episode 257-494” is easily one of the most bizarre and meta episodes of Teen Titans. It’s a channel-surfing, fourth-wall-breaking trip through alternate realities, parody shows, and exaggerated tropes. Naturally, Beast Boy takes full advantage of this chaos and delivers one of the funniest fake-TV moments in the show’s entire run. Enter: The Manly Mustache.
In one of the channels the Titans flip through, we’re introduced to a hilariously over-the-top 80s action cartoon parody, starring Beast Boy as the most stereotypical macho hero imaginable. He’s bulked up, covered in baby oil (presumably), and wearing a fake mustache so comically large it looks like it has its own gravitational pull. He growls out absurd one-liners like “Time to flex some justice!” and “Let’s beef up the beefcake!” while punching through walls for no reason at all. And the best part? He takes it so seriously.
Everything about this moment is a parody of hyper-masculine action heroes from the 1980s. The animation style changes to match the era, complete with gritty textures, extreme close-ups, and way too many explosions. Beast Boy’s voice drops several octaves, and he speaks in that classic gruff tone that sounds like he’s been gargling gravel. It’s gloriously dumb, and he leans into it like a kid who just got cast in his dream role.
The mustache itself becomes a character. At one point, it wiggles when he talks. It might even twitch when he flexes. The whole scene is an exaggerated mess of testosterone and absurdity, and Beast Boy is loving every minute of it. His commitment to the bit is what sells it. He’s not just parodying the genre—he believes he is the genre.
This moment stands out because it shows off the Teen Titans writers’ incredible sense of humor and their ability to let the characters embrace ridiculousness. Beast Boy is the perfect choice to lead this moment because he’s already so playful and animated. Giving him a fake mustache, a bad script, and a reason to shout, “MUSCLE BLAST!” is like handing him a comedy crown.
Fans of the show still reference this bit years later, especially those who grew up watching the kinds of cartoons it parodied. It’s a loving jab at shows like He-Man, G.I. Joe, and Thundercats, with Beast Boy channeling all the tropes into one ridiculous package.
In a series full of genuine emotional depth and compelling story arcs, it’s moments like this that remind us Teen Titans also had the range to just be completely absurd. And no one rides the line between absurdity and brilliance better than Beast Boy.
#5: The “Tofu Monster” Incident
In “Employee of the Month,” Beast Boy embarks on an epic (and absurd) journey to buy a moped. But to earn the money, he takes a job at Mega Meaty Meat—a fast-food nightmare of meat, meat, and more meat. There’s just one problem: Beast Boy is a vegetarian. A hardcore one. So naturally, watching him try to survive in the world’s most carnivorous kitchen is comedy gold.
The setup is brilliant. From the second he enters the greasy, blood-red dining hall, Beast Boy is on the verge of puking. The meat smell assaults his nose. Grease clings to his skin. And as he’s handed a mop and told to “clean the meat chute,” he lets out one of the most guttural “ewwwwws” in cartoon history. It’s not just the gross-out humor that works here—it’s Beast Boy’s reaction to every tiny detail. His dramatics are Oscar-worthy. He faints into mustard dispensers. He hides in freezers. He transforms into animals just to escape the smell—though, hilariously, he forgets that most animals have better senses of smell than humans.
Eventually, the stress of working in the meat factory takes its toll. Beast Boy begins hallucinating—a fever dream where tofu comes to life, declares war on meat, and Beast Boy rides into battle on a soybean steed. It’s visually stunning and narratively bonkers. There’s a tofu monster with laser eyes, a dramatic “Soy Wars” theme song, and even an anime-style transformation sequence. It’s so wildly over-the-top that it loops around to brilliance.
What makes this moment legendary is how committed the episode is to the bit. They don’t just make a joke and move on—they build a tofu-based mythos. And Beast Boy is dead serious about it. “Tofu is the food of peace!” he declares, leading his soy-based revolution. The passion, the ridiculousness, the bizarre visuals—it’s all perfect. You’re laughing, but you’re also marveling at just how far the writers took a one-joke premise.
At the end of the day, this episode—and this tofu war—epitomizes everything great about Beast Boy’s humor. It’s silly, dramatic, and just a little bit unhinged. And in a series known for balancing comedy with emotional depth, this is one of the purest, most joyful comedic moments Beast Boy ever gave us.
#4: The “Raven Impersonation” Debacle
In the emotionally charged episode “Nevermore,” Raven’s inner struggles take center stage—but before the psychological depth kicks in, Beast Boy delivers one of the most savage (and hilarious) impressions in the entire series. After Raven loses her temper and lashes out at Beast Boy with a burst of dark energy, he responds in the only way he knows how: by mocking her. Mercilessly.
Complete with a faux cloak and a monotone voice, Beast Boy performs an exaggerated, theatrical imitation of Raven’s brooding personality. “Darkness… no parents… my soul is a black abyss,” he says in a deadpan growl, swaying dramatically and adopting Raven’s detached posture. Cyborg howls with laughter. Even Robin cracks a grin. But Raven? She’s not amused. With a single glare and a flick of her finger, she telekinetically slams Beast Boy into the nearest wall.
It’s a moment that lives rent-free in every Teen Titans fan’s memory because it captures both the comedy and consequences of Beast Boy’s impulsive humor. His impersonation is so over-the-top and yet so accurate that you can’t help but laugh. But what makes it even funnier is the pacing. The scene plays out with perfect comedic timing: setup, delivery, pause… and then the telekinetic slam. Chef’s kiss.
This bit also shows how Beast Boy uses humor to defuse tension—even if it sometimes makes things worse. He’s not trying to hurt Raven’s feelings (though he definitely does). He’s trying to lighten the mood, to pull her out of her shell with a little playful ribbing. But because Raven guards her emotions like Fort Knox, the result is an explosion—literally.
Interestingly, the moment isn’t just funny—it’s deeply revealing. Beast Boy may act like the team goofball, but he’s surprisingly perceptive. He nails the essence of Raven’s emotional turmoil, even if he turns it into a punchline. That duality—of clown and empath—makes this moment land harder than just a simple gag.
The best part? Even after being launched into drywall, Beast Boy doesn’t seem mad. He’s still smiling, proud of his spot-on performance. His resilience, even in the face of mystical fury, is downright hilarious. And while Raven acts annoyed, you know she secretly respected the accuracy.
This scene is the epitome of why Beast Boy’s humor works. It’s irreverent, it’s bold, and it always teeters on the edge of disaster. And when you’re impersonating someone who can bend reality with her mind, it’s also dangerously brave. Or just plain stupid. Either way, we laughed.
#3: Beast Boy’s “Alien Dance-Off” with Starfire
In “Date with Destiny,” when Robin is coerced into taking Killer Moth’s terrifying daughter Kitten to prom, the rest of the Titans are left to entertain themselves back at the tower. Most heroes might spend their downtime meditating, training, or preparing for battle. Beast Boy? He throws down a dance challenge against Starfire.
What begins as simple boredom escalates into one of the most unexpected and hilarious dance-offs in cartoon history. Beast Boy starts with exaggerated hip-hop moves, breakdancing, moonwalking, and even worming across the floor. Then, of course, he kicks it up by morphing into different animals—each with its own groovy flair. A chicken doing the moonwalk? Check. A dolphin breakdancing on its tail? You bet. A jellyfish doing a headspin? Somehow, yes.
Starfire, not one to be outdone, responds with an alien interpretation of Earth dance moves that defy both physics and logic. She levitates, twirls, and emits sparkles like an intergalactic pop star. It becomes a full-blown spectacle, with the other Titans watching in slack-jawed awe and mild terror. No words are spoken. No judges are named. And yet, it feels like the universe itself is watching this absurd showdown.
The comedic gold comes not just from the visuals, but from the intensity. Beast Boy and Starfire are locked in a battle of pure joy and chaos. They don’t say anything, but their body language is screaming “I will win this cosmic groove war.” Beast Boy’s ability to turn into animals adds a whole new layer of unpredictable comedy. One second, he’s a gorilla doing a headbang, the next he’s a hummingbird flitting between glow sticks. It’s nonsense—and it’s glorious.
What makes this moment such a fan favorite is its randomness. It serves no purpose in the episode’s plot. It’s not connected to any villain or mission. It’s just a break from the action—a pure injection of personality and joy. That willingness to pause and let the characters just exist is part of what made Teen Titans so special.
This dance-off perfectly showcases Beast Boy’s strengths: spontaneity, creativity, and the confidence to make a total fool of himself. It’s a moment that could’ve fallen flat in lesser hands, but with Beast Boy (and Starfire) going full throttle, it becomes unforgettable.
#2: The “Beast Boy and Cyborg Show” Takeover
In “Car Trouble,” Cyborg is laser-focused on rebuilding his beloved T-Car. But Beast Boy has other plans—he’s about to launch the greatest variety show no one asked for: The Beast Boy and Cyborg Show! Armed with nothing but a warped sense of humor and way too much free time, Beast Boy hijacks the garage and transforms it into his personal TV studio. The result? A whirlwind of comedic segments, character skits, and fourth-wall-breaking nonsense that hits harder than most late-night shows.
Beast Boy kicks off with a self-composed theme song—complete with terrible guitar riffs and howling vocals. Then he moves on to mock interviews with his hand puppet (also named Beast Boy), a cooking segment where he attempts to fry eggs using a blowtorch, and an impromptu dance party featuring wild animal morphs. He even creates fake commercials for products like “Stank Cologne” and “Mega Mondo Nacho Sauce.”
Cyborg, for his part, is not amused. He’s just trying to fix his car. But Beast Boy is relentless. He throws confetti over him mid-weld, insists on doing a “celebrity gossip” segment about Robin’s spiky hair, and at one point, hijacks the car to turn it into a “party limo.” It’s the perfect comedy duo dynamic: the grumpy straight man and the wild-card clown.
What makes this moment shine is how much effort Beast Boy puts into it. He builds sets out of cardboard, writes theme music, and even adds cheesy transitions. He fully believes in the brilliance of his show—and somehow, by the end of it, so do we. His humor is childish, ridiculous, and over-the-top—and yet there’s something almost admirable about how committed he is to entertaining himself (and us).
This scene is a highlight reel of Beast Boy’s personality: creative, goofy, a little annoying, but utterly lovable. His ability to create an entire entertainment empire out of nothing proves that, if the superhero thing ever fell through, he’d probably do just fine on YouTube.
#1: The Legendary “Mmm… Waffles” Song
No list of Beast Boy’s funniest moments would be complete without the scene that launched a thousand memes. In the episode “Employee of the Month,” Beast Boy annoys Raven to the edge of the galaxy by chanting the word “waffles” over and over in a bizarre, sing-song voice. “Mmm… waffles!” he croons, bouncing across the tower with wild-eyed joy. It’s completely surreal—and completely unforgettable.
The beauty of this moment lies in its simplicity. There’s no setup, no context. Beast Boy just starts repeating “waffles” like it’s a mantra passed down through generations of green-skinned pranksters. He turns it into a song. He adds rhythm. He dances. And Raven, the embodiment of stoic deadpan, begins to visibly crack under the pressure.
As the chant continues, the camera lingers just a little too long, pushing the joke past funny, into awkward… and then back to funny again. That deliberate pacing is a masterstroke in comedy writing. You expect it to stop—but it doesn’t. And that’s exactly why it works. Beast Boy stays committed, delivering “Mmm… waffles!” with the same enthusiasm every time. Raven grits her teeth. The tension builds. And we’re rolling with laughter.
The scene became a breakout viral hit. Fans remixed it, GIFed it, set it to techno music. “Waffles” became shorthand for everything that makes Beast Boy great: chaotic energy, juvenile glee, and the sheer nerve to annoy Raven without fear of mystical retaliation.
It’s not just one of the funniest moments in Teen Titans. It’s one of the most iconic. The kind of scene that sticks with you long after the episode ends, echoing in your brain like a sugary battle cry. Beast Boy didn’t just say “waffles.” He unleashed it. And we’re still laughing.
Beast Boy is more than just the class clown of the Teen Titans—he’s the chaotic glue that holds the group together when things get too serious. Whether he’s turning into a penguin to impress a date, starting an impromptu dance battle, or declaring war in the name of tofu, Beast Boy’s antics always land. He brings a much-needed lightness to the team, a reminder that laughter matters just as much as strength, strategy, and serious brooding. And while his pranks might drive Raven up a wall and leave Robin rubbing his temples, fans love him for it. Because at the end of the day, no one makes us laugh harder than the Titan who can turn into a hamster and still somehow save the day. Beast Boy isn’t just the comic relief—he’s comedy royalty.
