** The same goes in the Latin American Spanish dub, as Mao Mao is voiced by Alejandro Orozco, who already voiced a sword-wielding villain wearing a black armor, and having lots of personal conflicts with his father: [[Franchise/StarWars Kylo Ren]].

* HumiliationConga: Mao Mao puts himself through one in "Mao Mao's Nakey" after losing his clothes. In trying to sneak past the Cutie Pies in the middle of the night, he ends up stumbling around, getting stuff inadvertedly thrown at him, is almost ''cooked alive'' hiding in an oven, and forced to hide in thorny bushes. When he's finally caught outside naked, instead of letting the crowd laugh at him, he decides to do a preemptive strike and flaunt his nudity at them. Not only do they not care, [[InstantHumiliationJustAddYouTube a video of it is posted and goes viral.]]

* WingsDoNothing: Fearwing cannot fly because his wings are made out of metal and thus, too heavy for flight.

* SoProudOfYou: The ending of "Short" shows Mao Mao's relationship with his dad improving, with Shin Mao finally admitting that he's proud of his son. In "Scared of Puppets," it's revealed that Mao Mao's reluctance to admit that he's scared of [[DemonicDummy Mr. Din Danalin]] is because Shin Mao pounded into his head that "heroes aren't afraid." Even if Shin Mao has finally realized [[HeelRealization how badly his neglect affected his son]], all the trauma he's inflicted on Mao Mao isn't going to disappear overnight.

** In the Japanese dub, the titular Mao Mao is voiced by Creator/TatsuhisaSuzuki, who already voiced [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXV another dark-haired, sword-wielding hero bent on saving the world, while having many inner demons haunting him]]. Likewise, Creator/SubaruKimura (Badgerclops) already voiced [[Anime/{{Doraemon}} another bullish fat guy]].

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
** In "The Truth Stinks", Badgerclops flirts with a beignet and then eats it in a profoundly sensual manner. At one point it even looks like he's fellating it.
** In "Baost In Show", Badgerclops strutting down the catwalk wearing a dog harness that looks very reminiscent of bondage gear, posing and playing with his leash like he's a stripper.

* TheRoyalWe: King Snugglemane often uses "we" instead of "I" when referring to himself.

%%* TheRoyalWe: The king of Pure Heart Valley speaks this way.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: [[Radar/MaoMaoHeroesOfPureHeart Now has its own page]].

* PurpleEyes: Has temporarily happened to Badgerclops and Adorabat. Specifically...
** When Badgerclops' creativity is repressed for too long he enters a hyperfocused state where he builds all the ideas that have been cooped up in his mind all to not remember what the heck they do when he snaps out of it.
** The Ruby Pure Heart granted Adorabat the power to have her "zings" cause physical damage through a mouth beam that shifted her eyes into the shade when in use.

** In "Fright Wig," Badgerclops seems to have a plan ready for if/when he or Mao Mao accidentally murder a Sweetiepie, and it involves [[DirtyCoward throwing Adorabat under the bus.]]

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
** In "The Truth Stinks" Badgerclops gets [[EroticEating really sexual]] with his beignet, a few frames even looking like he's giving it a blowjob.
*** In the same episode, Adorabat suggests that Badgerclops could use some "me time" and Badgerclops responds with "That's what my crystals are for!" The crystals that Badgerclops are wearing on his neck [[https://i.imgur.com/w86V6r8.jpg look almost exactly like this one.]] There aren't any other explanations for Badgerclops response that make sense besides a sly reference to that.
