* CarnivoreConfusion: Many examples in animeanime:
** CarnivoresAreMean, especially Thekla the spider, but actually they have to eat something. In later episodes of the anime, she quiets trying to eat Maya and the other insects and acts more like a grouchy old neighbor but is kind ever once in a while.
** Maya helps an insect save her nest from a parasite, although somebody has stated that Maya can't save everybody ant that the first insect also has laid her eggs in an larva.
** Ladybugs give everybody aphid juice. Is it honeydew or everybody can eat sentients? Ladybugs eat also leaves.
** Burying beetles and ants are scavengers and wish other insects to die.
** Birds and frogs usually do not speak and are simply predators.
** The second season seems to be less about insects eating insects.
** In the 3D animated series almost exclusively Thekla is bug and predator.
*** One mole cricket is vegetarian and does not eat rain-worms, but her sister apparently does. (Although it is not main point of the plot. When the sister appears, she eats truffle and causes an oak to die.)
*** Birds, frogs and lizards talk and sometimes decide not to eat a bug.

* ArtEvolution: Maya's head design and facial design started looking from a circle in season 1, into oval shaped in season 3 in the original anime series. Also in Season 3, when ever Maya would get very upset or angry. Her eyebrows would start showing up compared to the earlier episodes where she would show expressions with her pupils.

* CrossDressingVoice: Willy's voice in the Japanese,Arabic, and Spanish Dub(Except for the Latino) of the anime are all voiced by females. Willy is voiced by men in other dubs.

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Watch any episodes of the original anime and then start watching the 3D reboot there are tons of examples that can be jarring to some viewers.
** In the anime, Willy is extremely lazy and if prone to taking very long napes. Willy in the 3D reboot, while also lazy and sleeps alot. He's still alot more active and awake compared to his anime counterpart.
** While Flip was always the TeamDad to Willy and Maya. In the anime, Flip would sometimes get's annoyed along with getting easily excited. In the reboot, Flip rarely get's like that is would usually give some helpful advice to Maya and Willy about certain situations or problems.
** In the original anime, Maya wasn't afraid of pulling out her stinger as self defense or as a threat. In the reboot, this was toned down and Maya would never be seen using her stinger to protect herself.
** CarnivoresAreMean, especially Thekla the spider, but actually they have to eat something. In later episodes of the anime, she quiets trying to eat Maya and the other insects and acts more like a grouchy old neighbor but is kind ever once in a while.

* WaistcoatOfStyle: In the CGI reboot, Flip now wears a vest and also carries a violin


Added DiffLines:

* ShipTease: Maya and Willy's relationship changes alot in the anime (Well the English version that is). But in new CGI series, there are moments where Maya would kiss Willy on the cheek as well as some hugs.
