Tone armor is basicly what Roger Rabbit calls out in Who Framed Roger Rabbit and gets pretty well showcased in the OG Space Jam.
Eddy- You mean you could've taken your hand out of that cuff at any time?
Roger Rabbit: No, not at any time, only when it was funny."

8:11 I'd like to say that Avatar: The Last Airbender avoided saying the word "kill" by coming up with clever euphemisms. My personal favourite is Azula's "I'm about to become an only child!" line.

12:35 One Punch Man is a perfect example of a series where the tone shifts as long as one character is on-screen. As long as Saitama is the one fighting, we know the villain is going to die and no one else will get hurt, but whenever he isn’t present for a battle, people can suffer as gruesome injuries as one can imagine, and heroes lose to monsters constantly.

My disappointment when this video wasn't about when your abs are so rock hard that it makes you impervious to injury was immeasurable

Tone armor is the reason why in ATLA, a world where the plot revolves around an army of soldiers with the power to shoot fire from their hands, Zuko is the only person on the planet to suffer an actual burn injury.

I feel like Mulan is a huge example of this, from being a fun musical movie to walking over that hill and seeing the destroyed village, and seeing what is actually at stake if they don't succeed, then not having any songs after that. The tonal shift is such a huge hit and I live for it

After watching this video I watched the Emperor's New Groove. Oh boy, what an example. The movie acknowledges breaks in logical consistency throughout and still maintains immersion, and I think it is all through tone armor. The movie lives by cartoon rules with characters who are slightly confused by that, but don't think about it too hard.

"A girl worth fighting-"
Still one of the most expert tone breaks Disney has ever done.

My friends and I used to note the cartoon armor. Back in highschool, we were running an RPG where one of us made an antagonist that was essentially a daffy duck character - chaotic, insane, and invincible. The character was not evil (being a cartoon), but was essentially causing havoc and his actions would cause damage to the none-cartoon players of our campaign. So, whenever someone tried to kill the character my friend would think of a loony tunes result, which he would then say 'cut away, cut back -- he's normal'. We finally beat him by getting him to swear, it cause him to lose his cartoon armor, signaled by a painful growth of a fifth finger on each of his hands.

Okay, I could actually see a paper cut with a single drop of blood being really funny to a cartoon character (though the example still stands). I'm just imagining a scenario where a cartoon character narrowly avoids a bunch of super dangerous traps or attacks and then at the very end gets a single Paper Cut and, as a single drop of blood drops out, acts like this was the most painful thing that's ever happened.

"Did Jet die?"
"Yaknow, they were really unclear about that."

I think one story that does a tone armor break from dark to light is Kung Fu Panda. Tai Lung is this tough kung fu master that very easily takes down all the serious kung fu fighters in scenes that feel very dark and scary, but then Po comes in and his wow impact moment is the fact that he works on cartoony slapstick logic and Tai Lung can't beat that. All the other characters lacked tone armor because they and the scenes they were in approached everything seriously, but because Po is so much goofier, he completely broke the established tone and used it to save the day fantastically

“I’m about to celebrate becoming an only child!” From Azula is my favorite death threat without saying kill

I can't help but think of Sayori's death in DDLC as the perfect example of a story establishing a tone; then blowing it up and totally changing direction.

I'm glad you put a name to this idea. I see it come up in D&D a lot: with some dungeon masters "I cobble together a disguise out of a mop and cardboard to impersonate the king" has a chance of working, with other groups that idea will get a laugh but everybody intrinsically knows not to attempt it because the campaigns tone guarantees it will fail.

Anakin challenged me when I was on the High Ground because he mistakenly believed that he was protected by plot armor. Little did he know that by switching to the Dark Side, he lost his main character status. It was over Anakin. NOW I HAD THE PLOT ARMOR.

18:20 I love the idea of tone armor so strong not even the villain knows they're allowed to hurt people and that revelation is so surprising to them

The thing I love about trope talks is you'll say a phrase like "Tone Armor" that I've never heard before and yet I instantly know exactly what you're getting at. Like "OH YEAH! That absolutely is a thing!" Its fun!

As an English major I like your definition that tone is sort of a "soft-edged probability map." I also generally equate tone to emotion or temperature.

this is a thing I heard Brennan Lee Mulligan bring up once. Something along the lines of: "If I am a child in a ghibli movie, I am invincible! However, if I am a child in a gritty noire setting, I am in very real danger at all times"
