* KickTheDog: In "The Legend of the Dragon Tooth", when Hailey brings up that Jake will come rescue her, Dr. Diente sadistically [[ShutUpKirk demoralizes]] her by saying her brother doesn't care about her, even revealing to her what he overheard Jake say: that he wishes he were an only-child.

* AnAesop: "The Doppleganger Gang" highlights both the importance of time management and how, sometimes, you can be your own worst enemy.

* DoctorsDisgracefulDemotion: "Professor" Rottwood believes in the existence of magical creatures, [[WesternAnimation/FairlyOddparents much like another public school teacher.]] Unfortunately for Rottwood, when he presented his evidence of such, it was not seen as quirky by his peers, but rather an affront to scientific discovery and an aggregious misuse of research funds. He was summarily stripped of his accreditation, and reduced to teaching middle school while continuing to harangue others about his crackpot theories, a fact he finds very insulting.

If this were a genuine example, wouldn't every example of Darker And Edgier also be an example of Lighter And Software (and vice versa)?


* LighterAndSofter: The first season. The art style is lighter, and it has much more hijinks and comedic moments than that of season 2, with only a handful of continuous storylines. The stakes are still there, but most episodes are PlayedForLaughs more than anything.

* ActorAllusion: A RunningGag throughout the series is Jake being told that he wears too much hair gel. The same thing was also said about [[Film/{{Hook}} Rufio]], one of Creator/DanteBasco’s most well-known roles.

* TemporaryScrappy: Jake's normal NonHumanSidekick is a dog named Fu. In [[Recap/AmericanDragonJakeLongS02E24NobodysFu "Nobody's Fu"]], he's replaced by a monkey named Bananas B. Bananas B acts excessively cool and has many useful skills, thus making Jake and most of the other characters like him. However, in the fight against a MonsterOfTheWeek evil dragon, Bananas [[FaceHeelTurn surrenders and goes over to her side]]. Jake appreciates his more loyal friend Fu once more, and Bananas' only other appearance is when his new dragon mistress reappears in a later episode.

* TraineeFromHell: Professor Rotwood is hit by this, quite literally, in the episode [[Recap/AmericanDragonJakeLongS01E12TheSkiTrip Ski Trip]], when [[ActionGirl Rose]] throws a boy at him. While he's already hurt from that time when the students ran over him while he tried to distribute ski passes. That having said, his attitude of continuing to supervise the trip with several broken bones instead of admitting he's hurt and should go to the hospital leads to quite a lot more accidents for him.
