History YMMV / ChipAndDale

* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: [[GeniusDitz Dale]] gets a big one in "Chips Ahoy". He secretly dismantles all of Donald's boats just before heading off with Chip. When Donald does use them, Dale merely goofs around, awaiting the former's fall. Even better, after Donald is sent flying after his speedboat was pulled to a stop, he ends up slamming into a nut tree that Chip and Dale were trying to reach, knocking a plentiful supply of nuts for Chip and Dale to enjoy back at their tree!

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Chip and Dale are very popular Disney Characters in Japan (alongside [[WesternAnimation/TheAristocats Marie]], WesternAnimation/DaisyDuck, and WesternAnimation/MinnieMouse). [[UnexpectedCharacter So much so that even Clarice]] from [[WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts "Two Chips and a Miss"]] became a meetable character in the parks starting at [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Tokyo Disney Resort]] in 2005.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: There's little middle way between these two with the fan base. They're either loveable little wise acres that compensated for the [[VanillaProtagonist bland or repetitive main stars]], or irritating little {{Karma Houdini}}s that exacerbated the mischievous animal formula that was taking over the Disney series. Their role in later medias only complicates matters.

* DesignatedHero:
** Some of the shorts pitting them against WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck can make them appear as such. While there are shorts where Donald deserves whatever abuse they subject him to there are also shorts where he's just minding his own business and Chip and Dale decide to torment and antagonize him for no better reason than he's there.
