* When Randy and Howard went to [=McFist=]'s movie theater to watch Grave Puncher: The Movie in 6D, they had to sneak in because all tickets had already been sold and yet they managed to find seats.
** It could be that a couple of people bought tickets and couldn't make it for some reason or other. The tickets wouldn't be available, but the seats would be.
* Soooooo does everyone just assume the Ninja's been the same guy for 800 years? The Sorceress said that "800 years has done little to diminish your strength," so I would think so. But that seems a little ridiculous. I mean, [=McFist=] is trying to find out who the Ninja actually is, right? So he knows he's just a regular guy, and not some supernatural force or anything. What gives?
** Well as the Sorceress had only just escaped after 800 years of imprisonment, its safe to say she may have missed out on a few updates. As for [=McFist=], while there indeed keeping the idea of the Ninja having a secret identity open, that doesn't automatically mean he's a different person to the first Ninja, from there perspective he could easily be pulling a highlander and giving himself a new identity every couple of decades. After all, the Ninja's secrets, are just that secret. And is immortality any more unrealistic than any of his other powers?
** To be fair, the First Ninja's squire Plop Plop made it to the 21st century.

**Randy is able to accomplish some things with pointers from the nomicon despite the nomicon despite no other ninja before him having experience with such things, Namely sealing the Tengu by by burning the mask, but in 13th century ninja, the first ninja sees Randy performing these feats, and was introduced to the Nomicon. The nomicon was likely already aware of the time travel events, and after seeing it, the first ninja decided to create his own, which knew to pass first ninja the lesson “in order to right the present you must write the past”.

* Waaaaay back when [=McFist=] first began to attack the Ninja, after the whole incident was over Randy was disgusted over how his so-called idol was a villain, and yet he still wanted to buy all of the [=McFist=] Industries products. This actually gives him a bit of cover, since apparently everyone loves the company, it would raise suspicion if there was even one person who had no interest in it or outright loathing.
** That, and two guys not buying his products wouldn't make a difference financially anyway.
*** Although, it'd probably make them feel better about themselves if they did.
* The mere fact that the Sorceror prioritizes teenagers as his subjects of choice for stanking makes a whole lot sense when you consider how he needs people who are experiencing intense negative emotions for it to work most of the time. Now where would you get a bunch of highly emotional people all in one place? A high school, with plenty of reasons for people to experience negative emotions, such as humilation from bullies, heartbreak from losing friends and lovers, and frustration at other people, not to mention that teenagers are a lot likely to be a whole more emotional due to going through puberty and what-not, in contrast to adults who tend to be more emotionally stable and able to rationalize their feelings.
* In "Stank'd To The Future it makes sense that [[HumanPopsicle Dickie]] [[spoiler: magically aged up to Tawny's age during the "Stanked Me With Your Love" scene]], because otherwise there would be some massive UnfortunateImplications about [[spoiler:their relationship if Dickie stayed a teenager]].
* As shown in the HilariousOuttakes during the SeriesFinale the cast are AnimatedActors, so the more ridiculous concepts like Norrisville being a town in America that was founded eight hundred years ago by people of Japanese descent or the very concept of "Stanking" are just creative directions within the InUniverse show they're making; in other words, it's a meta take on BellisariosMaxim pertaining to a show about a teenage ninja that is also a "show" people are making about a teenage ninja.
* Of course the character who's shown to have looked after something called the "Ninjanomicon" is voiced by none other than [[spoiler:'''Creator/BruceCampbell''', although luckily for him [[Franchise/EvilDead unlike]] [[TomeOfEldritchLore the Necronomicon Ex Mortis]]. The Ninjanomicon is more interested in being a force of good rather than evil and causing trouble for his character]].

* The "Ultimate Lesson" wipes the Ninja's memory of their tenure and adds their experience to the NinjaNomicon which, while kind of rough, isn't that big a deal for the Ninja since they're the only one who knows their secret identity... except for Randy and Howard. If the show continued long enough for the two to graduate (or get a DistantFinale) then Randy would have opened the door to the "Ultimate Lesson" and gave up his memories, but ''Howard'' would remember and, considering how bad Mac Antfee turned out partly because he kept his memories, the absolute best case scenario would be Howard ''keeping their adventures secret from Randy the rest of their lives.'' Not that Howard usually has a problem lying to or keeping secrets from his "BFFER," but this will be a life-long deception on Howard's part.

* A major plot point of the second season is Julian being trapped in the Land of Shadows while his evil twin runs rampant in Norrisville. While Evil Julian does impersonate him for a short time, he eventually goes into hiding and it isn't until the very end of the series that the real Julian is brought back. The ''really'' disturbing realization of this is that for days, possibly weeks, nobody, not even his parents, apparently knew that Julian had gone missing.
