The series stars Bugbo, a reddish-purple humanoid insect thing who goes on adventures with his two friends: Gerbo, a dimwitted yellow and green spider, and Gradient Joe, a nonspeaking human with a shaded sphere for a head. Their grasshopper friend, Hoppo, also makes brief appearances once per episode. Bugbo often tries to teach Gerbo lessons, but along the way, they run into some unnerving and/or antagonistic characters. The whole series has a vaguely menacing and unsettling mood without becoming too much of a blatant DisguisedHorrorStory, [[{{Averted|Trope}} which is something the show is not]].

* NinjaProp: A [[DownplayedTrope downplayed example]] occurs in "Under the Oak" when the Bandicam watermark falls off as Gradient Joe axes the titular oak tree.
Added DiffLines:
* StylisticSuck: The animation is animated in the style of a webtoon from the 2000s, and also feature Bandicam and Unregistered Hypercam watermarks, suggesting these are in-universe pieces of media that are being recorded by an unknown person.
Added DiffLines:
* UnreliableNarrator: In "A Familar Foe", [[spoiler: in Thomas Flyswatter's backstory, he claims that he tripped into the conveyor belt and wasn't able to escape it no matter how hard he tried, but the accompanying animation shows that he had jumped onto the conveyor belt and was not strapped to it in any way.]]

* MonsterClown: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. The Hollow Clown in ''Under the Oak'' has a disturbing, masklike face that lives up to his name. He also has a creepy voice and mannerisms. However, he doesn't do anything evil that we see. He is actually a NonIronicClown who is depressed because his circus was shut down by the mayor. On the other hand, a FreezeFrameBonus reveals that the circus contains a nuclear missile with a clown face on it. [[AmbiguousSituation Did he put that there, and was he planning to use it]]?

* DisguisedHorrorStory: Subverted. While the series features a lot of surreal humor that leans on the creepier side with Bugbo being an emotionless, unnerving sort who never stops smiling and displays reality warping abilities, the series doesn't actually veer into horror at any point, with the plots being rather kid-friendly besides the series' quirks.
