* Book ten: Tippy is basically DrivenToSuicide twice, both times setting off a nuclear bomb intending to be caught in its radius. While he clearly had to go, it’s a shame how far the once well-intentioned scientist has fallen.

Even a book series with a premise as kooky as this can have upsetting moments.

** Captain Underpants lost his powers and thanks to Sir Stinks-A-Lot wiping the hypnosis from his brain, he reverted back to Mr. Krupp permanently. Even worse, Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold decide to retire the character's comics in favor of making ''Dog Man'' comics, likely ensuring that except for a few people (George, Harold, Melvin) everyone will forget him.

*** It's even sadder when you remember that Pilkey has confirmed that both boys have dyslexia and ADHD so not only are they hearing their parents call them troublemakers but their parents are basically calling them broken while talking about how they've been "fixed". And on top of that, many fans think that "Rid-O-Kid" and its effects represent people who want kids with attention deficit disorders medicated not because it's good for the kids (because as the book makes clear, Rid-O-Kid is ''not'' good for Yesterday George and Harold ''at all'') but because it makes them easier to deal with; so much ouch.
