  • Why doesn't Woo the Wise use a Liger to make the dragon? Made even worse by the fact that Ligers breath fire.
    • He probably was in a rush and got so desperate he didn't think of it.
  • How come Mighty Ray doesn't put chocolate on his bananas or something?
    • Would it made any difference?
      • ^This, he always swallows them whole and still gags
    • Turns out the problem is psychological: he ODed on bananas and burned out his eyeballs.
  • Why do they even have Second Squad?
    • Yeah, seriously, I want to see some action from them. On a related note, Mr. No Hands is the captain but he rarely goes on missions
  • Why is Ape Trully hiding the fact he's a monkey from Big Green?
    • I think its because people would not have trusted him at first.
    • "The humans are kind and they certainly mean well, but they are not yet ready for a monkey to lead Them."
  • For some reason Baboon King rubs me the wrong way.

  • This troper is bugged by the fact that Big Green's idea of "friendship" in most cases, is slavery. Crocodile King is used as an electric generator of sorts, Lion King is the fitness instructor (Granted, that's more of his volunteering), turtles are used as vehicles, and Elephant King is the effing Air Conditioner! Most cases, like with Crocodile King, they've gone from an elaborate palace, to a dark, enclosed room
    • Maybe there setting up for the mother of all What the Hell, Hero? moments.
      • They can leave whenever they want, and do
    • As mentioned above, they can leave whenever they want, and some of them (such as Snake King mentioned below, or Platypus King) specifically volunteered for their positions because they were a way they could use their powers to help Big Green and the humans.
      • Not just for the humans, the other animals at Big Green benefit as well. It's not like the humans don't pull their weight too, they all do work in some manner. And some of the animals even suggested their jobs, like Snake King. And they've been shown doing plenty of other things when they're not working. The animals are also given more respect by the humans than by High Roller's crew.

  • Why are we supposed to like ANY of these "heros"?
    • Mighty Ray is an egotistical jerk.
    • Mystique Sonia is just as egotistical, and the way she manipulated that guy into being her new Yaksha RIGHT AFTER her last one was burnt to death without a care disturbs me.
    • Lin Chung seems like the Only Sane Man sometimes, until ANYTHING resembling a painting appears before him and he draws uncontrolably, even if his friends are in danger!
    • Jumpy Ghostface is probably the most likeable, but that's because the only thing he does is say "cute" things in broken English.
    • Wu the wise is, once again, an egotistical jerk.
    • Nohands barley does ANYTHING (Granted, he can't do much of anything, but it still bugs me)
    • Apetrully is just an idiot.
      • Apetrully is not an idiot, hes just the best student at Genre Blindess 101.
        • What if Apetrully is only pretending to be incompetent; after all he managed to trick the Zebra Brothers into getting themselves caught after they smashed the Deer King's card collection.
    • And as mentioned above, these peoples idea of "friendship" is more or less slavery. These are probably the worst protagonists I have ever seen in a children's show.
      • For one, general character tropes will become this if you Accentuate the Negative. Yes, what Sonia did is a little disturbing (it's not like he really changed though, and he gets to sleep in her room); Apetrully is a Wide-Eyed Idealist, not stupid since he's the only animal that didn't fall for High Roller's trick; Wu the Wise is not egotistical, if he is, wouldn't you be egotistical if you invented all the Schizo-Tech (?) It's just a front anyway; Mighty Ray isn't a jerk, he can be rather nice. And finally, accusations of slavery. Do ANY of you know what slavery means? Their allies are just doing jobs around the base like everyone else, they choose to continue working, they can leave whenever they want (and they have), and they are allowed breaks to attend concerts and such. can you honestly name a single job one of the animals have that can truly be considered slavery?
        • Agreed completely. Faults are supposed to be there to make the characters more believible and real, if they were completely flawless, you'd be complaining about that, wouldn't you? And didn't that guy actually love Sonia to begin with? It's a little weird, but he got to be close to her at all times, and she does tend to threat those little things with respect. And I agree with what you said about slavery too, the animals choose to work and in some cases even choose their jobs. And the humans work too, just the animals are just much better at it because of their unique abilities.
  • Is it me, or is Lin Chung really full of Wangst?
    • He's just a sensitive artist, it's just you
      • Thanks, I was just a bit unsure at first.

  • Commander ApeTrully. He's the Monkey King in disguise, but he uses the name ApeTrully (pronounced like "Ape Truly"). One imagines that only narrowly beat out "Monkey O'MonkeyMonkey" on the list of names to use.
  • I.M. Monkey was to close to I.M.Weasel.
    • Arguably Fridge Brilliance: according to his bio, ApeTrully is disguised as a monkey's idea of a human. Humans tend to associate apes and monkeys, but apes are more closely related to humans than monkeys. From a monkey's perspective, apes and humans would be associated.

  • The fact that it seems all the animals are gullible enough to believe High Roller and join up with him despite HIM LOOKING LIKE SOMEONE YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TRUST!!!!
    • Maybe he smells trust worthy? IDK
    • Certain animals have actually mentioned that they didn't like High Roller. But it's less about them liking High Roller as about hating all other humans.
  • Who the heck is Hero 108 anyway?
    • The Bronze Giant, the massive Fusion Dance of all 107 heroes.
  • One thing that bugs me is how the literally "Bald Eagles" aren't called Vultures since Bald Eagles have white heads, not bald skin.
    • Vultures are whips. The Eagles are great fighters. Also you are going from a show that says Ligers breath fire.
