He can't even bother to save himself whenever Pac-Man is energized with Power Pellets, and if he's not planning to leave the others behind (even though the rest of the Ghost Monsters will intentionally put each other in harm's way) he's the one who usually gets chomped earlier at times.

* AdaptationPersonalityChange: In her original appearance in VideoGame/MsPacMan, she was identical to Clyde. The show turned her into a far more assertive and sneaky ghost... just like Clyde. Surprisingly, the more assertive version of Sue would [[CharacterDevelopment eventually come to be]] in the main Pac-Man universe as well.

* ButtMonkey: He may be an TheHero of the show, he still finds himself at the short end of the stick mostly when its PlayedForLaughs, whether it be getting trampled by Chomp-Chomp and Sourpuss during their disputes, enduring numerous AmusingInjuries, getting infected with poison ivy, threatened by his boss to the point of almost getting fired, or at the very worst of it: getting chomped by the Ghost Monsters.
* HulkingOut: He briefly gains muscle mass whenever he eats Power Pellets most of the time. It's fitting because the inspiration of him getting strengthened by PowerUpFood was heavily inspired by WesternAnimation/{{Popeye}}.
* NiceHat: The Pac always has a red fedora with a black stripe around it. There are moments where he doesn't have it on, and one episode reveals that he has small strands of hair on top of his head.
* TheSlacker: Even if he's the chief guardian of the Power Pellet Forest, Pac-Man will take his time to sporadically goof off on his duties such playing paddleball or juggling pellets while standing on a desk. He still takes his job seriously however so he's not ''completely'' inept from working.

* AdaptationalWimp: Hoo boy. Blinky suffered this majorly as he's not even the one in charge of the other ghosts. Not only that but the actual wimp part of this trope couldn't be anymore fitting as he always relies other doing tasks for him, even though he ''does'' go along with Clyde's schemes if encouraged enough. He's also rather soft-spoken with a quivering part to boot as he's generally a massive worry wart as well.
