History Fridge / BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold

* A meta example. In "Chill of the Night," ComicBook/ThePhantomStranger is played by KevinConroy, opposite MarkHamill as TheSpectre.The Spectre continually tries to push Batman over the edge and make him kill Joe Chill, so that he will become a remorseless murderer, while The Stranger knows that Batman will not falter. [[ComicBook/TheKillingJoke In other words, The Joker is trying to give someone "One Bad Day," while Batman knows that his target is better than that]].

** This is especially jarring as in the same episode he briefly waxes nostalgia over the BatmanTheAnimatedSeries episode "The Laughing Fish" which Harley Quinn was featured in.

** Which means that SilverAge Batman, despite his {{camp}}iness ruining the darkness of Batman, was actually the best and most efficient crimefighter out of the versions. Which also means that UsefulNotes/{{the Bronze Age|OfComicBooks}} and [[UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks Dark Age]] actually made Batman less realistic than the SilverAge.--@/{{Yarrunmace}}

* The wierd visuals like the multiple AQUAMANs and sudden scene changes during AQUAMAN's Rousing Song of Heroism may seem like just another AcidTripSequence, but remember that he and Captain Atom are in what is effectively the JLI version of the Danger Room. It wouldn't be that unusual for this series, or out of character for AQUAMAN to have pre-programmed a musical number into the hologram generator just in case he had a chance to go full-on ham with a RousingSpeach.

* Wong Fei from ''Return of the Fearsome Fangs'' is probably the worst sensei I ever seen. He ever insults his pupils no matter if they do well or bad, claims they kneel him like an attention whore... no wonder if only ONE of FIVE students completed his training... also just because "the plot demand it".

* Also In Emperor Joker, when Joker breaks out of prison, Batman tracks him down via the Batcycle. Bat-Mite rides along with him, which begs the question, why even use it if Bat-Mite can just teleport them there. Well, he could, but then he wouldn't be able to ride along with Batman.

** Or Batman has a countermeasure in case of a rogue ComicBook/PlasticMan which involves his exact mass, and Bat's is a genius who can do math on the fly.

* In "Emperor Joker," when Batman decides the best method of defeating the Joker's neigh ompnipotent powers is to use his mind, it seems a bit odd at first until you realize Batmite's first appearance in the series has him being defeated by the fact that his own imagination was running away with itself, despite the fact that he could use his powers to get himself out of a jam, Batmite didn't and was even shown later to be struggling to use them to set things right. If BTBaTB Batmite follows the same logic as Batmite in the comics with his powers being controlled by a part of his brain, it's possible that Mind truly is stronger than magic, as a mind overrun by panic or fear can't use the 5th dimensional abilities, Joker wasn't in any danger at first in Batman's mind, and allowed himself to give into fear when Batman suggested he would be completely sane.

** In the first part of "The Siege of Starro!", [[spoiler: Faceless Hunter looks like he killed off ComicBook/RedTornado]]. Absolutely no one mentions looking for him at all. WhatTheHellHero indeed.
*** Doesn't that happen to him all the time, though? He was killed in ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' once (destroyed by A.M.A.Z.O. in "The Return"), and was back in time for "Panic in the Sky". [[GoodThingYouCanHeal Good Thing You Can Be Rebuilt]]!
*** Yes but what if [[spoiler:Faceless Hunter]] made sure to hide the body?
**** If it makes you feel any better, [[spoiler: Tornado turns up just fine during the afterparty in "Mitefall".]]

**** Maybe Batman finagled a collar that lets him speak, but blocks the special pitch? Still horrifying, considering there are dog collars that do that, but it's a little less horrifying than being completely mute in a place like Blackgate or Arkham...

** Also regarding the Music Meister: his appearance is very similar to the Music ''Master'', from the ''JusticeLeague'' two-parter "Legends". He was part of the Injustice Guild, the evil counterpart to the Justice Guild, which was the alternate-universe Justice League with characters slightly different to their "real" DCAU counterparts- Catman instead of Batman, Black Siren instead of Black Canary, and so on. It therefore makes perfect sense that the same villain in Batman's universe would be called the Music ''Meister'' instead. The Music Master also had a European accent (I'm not entirely sure which country it was), so swapping his accent to American and the name to German might have been a further play on the universe-switch theme. -- {{Tropers/Eruvadhril}}

* Am I the only one who realized just how dangerous TheMusicMeister from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' is?! Now, don't get me wrong, the episode was a delight, but hear me out. Throughout the episode, he took control of people just by SINGING. By doing a musical number through Gotham, WHILE RUNNING FROM THE BATMAN, he turned the entire city into his slaves. Heck, in the opening, if Batman hadn't stopped them, the three heroes and three villains he had control of, who he had control of even before he first APPEARED, would have done a kickline right into a rocketblast at Music Meister's orders. Even with Batman's PlotDevice earplugs in them, {{ComicBook/AQUAMAN}}, GreenArrow, and ComicBook/BlackCanary were STILL singing, which implies that his voice isn't just hypnotic, but [[TheVirus viral!]] [[spoiler: He was literally just one person away from ruling the entire world at the end...]]

* Why did AQUAMAN's plan in "Mystery In Space" involve borrowing [[spoiler:Earth's moon]] for an eclipse, and not one of the other billon or so chunks of dirt in the universe of roughly the same size that wouldn't cause untold devastation to the planet's inhabitants?

* I don't know if this would count, but did anyone else notice that in "The Long Arm of the Law," Batman says that PlasticMan has lost 2.2 "percent" of himself, but the screen of the device he's holding is in ''grams?!'' Either Plas is ''exactly'' 100 grams (which is unlikely), or the creators of this show had no idea what they were doing. --@/Freud
