* The WebAnimation/BravestWarriors use a lot of slang, but, as is the case with ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'', the series is set far into the future and the slang used is nothing like what exists today. As an example, the word "moop" seems to have completely replaced any word that means sadness.
