* ShoutOut: In "The Monster Island Godzillars", Chibi Mechagodzilla mentioned a baseball player who also named Godzilla, referring to former baseball player Hideki Matsui, whose nickname is Godzilla.

* FantasticSlur: Chibi Mechagodzilla calls Chibi Godzilla a "Son of a Theropod" when he thinks he ran away and left him trapped with a roaring monster nearby (actually Chibi Anguirus).[[note]]This is more of a case of translator trying to avoid using inappropriate language when possible and/or following the RuleOfFunny, as the original Japanese line that "That son of a Theropod" correspond to is "Ano Yarou (あのやろう)", which literally means "That son of a bitch".[[/note]]

** In the first episode, Chibi Mechagodzilla describes himself as a "Robot made by humans", [[WaxingLyrical a line from Jet Jaguar's theme song]] from ''Film/GodzillaVsMegalon''.
** Much like the King Ghidorah from ''Series/{{Godzilland}}'' and more recently the ''Franchise/MonsterVerse'' series, each of Chibi Ghidorah's heads has their own personalities.
** In "Monster Study Session", when Chibi Godzilla bring out the question of which foe has been the hardest for Godzilla to defeat, Chibi Mothra answered that it's Godzilla himself...or rather, his heat ray which burn his mouth. In a few Godzilla films, namely the Heisei films and ''Film/GodzillaMinusOne'', have Godzilla burn his mouth when firing his heat ray. (In the former's case, it was resulted from firing his Red Heat Ray.)

** As shown in "Chibi Godzilla's Second Form", Chibi Godzilla can turn into his [[Film/ShinGodzilla second form]] whenever he gets a sleep sprain or bumps his knee.
** In the season 2 premiere episode "Shin Chibi Godzilla", Chibi Godzilla mentions that he dislikes having things explode in his mouth, which is a reference to [[spoiler:how Godzilla was defeated in ''Godzilla Minus One''.]]

-->'''Chibi Hedorah:''' (In response to Chibi Rodan's falling onto the ground) He fell on the ground! How flithy! I can't stand flith!\\

* CantTakeCriticism: As Chibi [=MechaGodzilla=] find out in "The Ruler of the Skies, Chibi Rodan", Chibi Rodan is insecure and anyone making a good argument against him can bring him down, ''literally''. As Chibi Mothra puts:

* RageBreakingPoint: In "All Chibi Monsters Attack", Chibi Godzilla, Chibi Ghidorah and Chibi Anguirus trashes the miniatures buildings that Chibi [=MechaGodzilla=] had built. Despite being told to stop trashing the set, the trio continue to do so after Chibi [=MechaGodzilla=] left the room. When Chibi [=MechaGodzilla=] comes back moments later, he had enough and proceeds to blast the three with the EyeBeams in anger.
