History YMMV / GrimmsFairyTaleClassics

** The Latin-American Spanish dub had several VA's that either were kinda well-known or would become '''very''' famous some years later: Creator/PatriciaAcevedo [[note]](Cinderella's Dove Friend, Little Red Riding Hood, Princess Helena in King Grizzle-Beard/Thursbeard, Gretel, Sleeping Beauty/Briar Rose, Maria/Beauty from ''Beauty and the Beast'', Josephine from ''Bluebeard'', the eldest Princess in ''The Worn Out Dancing Shoes'')[[/note]], [[Creator/AraceliDeLeon Araceli de León]] [[note]](Rapunzel, the Witch [[spoiler: and Rapunzel's child]], plus Maria/Beauty's sister Hana and Sleeping Beauty's Good Fairy)[[/note]], Creator/LuisAlfonsoMendoza [[note]](Hansel, Cinderella's Prince, the Frog Prince from ''The Princess and the Frog'', Joringel, the Big Bad Wolf, Frederick from ''The Magic Heart'')[[/note]], Creator/ElsaCovian [[note]](Heidi aka the girl from ''The Water Witch'', Aleia from ''The Coat of Many Colors'', the unnamed Princess from ''The Iron Stove'', Princess Elise from ''The Six Swans'' [plus [[TalkingToHimself one of the Swan Brothers]] ], Hildegard from ''Mother Winter'', Rose Red, Snow White, Lisbeth from ''The old woman...'')[[/note]], [[Creator/RocioGarcel Rocío Garcel]] [[note]](Snow White's birth mother, Jorinde, the Queen Mother in Cinderella, the Witches from ''Iron Stove'' and ''Sleeping Beauty'', Lisbeth from ''The Magic Heart'')[[/note]], Creator/MariaFernandaMorales [[note]](Cinderella's mean stepsister)[[/note]], Genaro Vásquez [[note]](the Bear Prince from ''Snow White and Rose Red'')[[/note]], Martín Soto [[note]](Maria's father in ''Beauty and the Beast'', the titular King Grizzle-Beard/Thursbeard, Rapunzel's father)[[/note]], Juan Alfonso Carralero [[note]](The titular Iron Stove/the Prince, Elise's father aka the King from The Six Swans)[[/note]], Belinda Martínez [[note]](Snow White and Rose Red's mother, Sleeping Beauty's mother)[[/note]], Creator/SalvadorDelgado [[note]](the Bear Prince's brother, Bluebeard)[[/note]], Creator/JesusBarrero [[note]](Puss in Boots)[[/note]], Creator/YamilAtala [[note]](Sleeping Beauty's Prince)[[/note]], Cristina "Cris" Camargo [[note]](Mother Winter)[[/note]], [[Creator/MonicaManjarrez Mónica Manjárrez]] [[note]](Princess Lenora from ''Princess and the Frog'')[[/note]], Laura Ayala [[note]](The Witch/WickedStepmother from the Six Swans)[[/note]], Eduardo Tejedo [[note]](Klaus from ''Snow White'', the boy from "Godfather Death", the eldest of Elise's brothers in ''The Six Swans'')[[/note]], José Luis Orozco [[note]](The Prince from ''Rapunzel'', Josephine's eldest brother in ''Bluebeard'')[[/note]], Creator/RicardoMendoza [[note]](the soldier from ''The Worn Out Dancing Shoes'', Elise's youngest brother from ''The Six Swans'', Josephine's youngest brother Friederich in ''Bluebeard'')[[/note]]etc.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Very, VERY popular among Latin-Americans who saw this series as children during TheNineties.

* In "The Magic Heart" Lisbeth and the Old Witch are transformed into donkeys by Frederick as revenge for casting him out in the desert. He then sells them to a farmer who agrees to work the Witch to her full strength even though she's physically frail, and then breaks his promise not to work Lisbeth when the Witch ends up dying from being worked too hard. Evil as she was, working a frail old woman in her state to the point of death is a cruel fate even for her, and even Frederick wonders [[DisproportionateRetribution if he was too hard on her]] before learning of her fate. When he returns to the farm, he is furious to find the farmer whipping Lisbeth nonstop until she collapses in pain, only whipping her harder as she squeals helplessly. Luckily Frederick immediately intervenes and realizes Lisbeth has suffered enough, eventually restoring her to human form.

** Bluebeard, from season 1's "Bluebeard", is a [[BitchInSheepsClothing seemingly charming rich gentleman]], but in truth is a vicious SerialKiller who keeps the corpses of his murdered wives locked in a dark room. When his previous wife discovered his dark secret, he murdered her in a blind rage. Seeking a wife who would not disappoint him, Bluebeard woos a young maiden, Josephine, and coerces her into marriage, offering her riches and all his treasures, but warns her not to enter his cellar, for fear of her discovering his dark secret. When Josephine disobeys him—he had given her the keys to all the rooms--and discovers all of his previous victims, Bluebeard flies into a rage and chases her throughout the mansion, sword in hand, intent on killing her for her disobedience. Vengeful and unforgiving, [[FauxAffablyEvil masked by a polite exterior]], Bluebeard was just as vile as his [[Literature/{{Bluebeard}} literary counterpart]].
** The [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen wicked queen]], from Season 2's "Literature/TheSixSwans", marries the kind king, whereupon she [[WouldHurtAChild attempts to murder his seven children]]. When this fails, she [[BalefulPolymorph turns his six sons into swans]], forcing his one daughter to stay mute for six years and sew special shirts to break the curse. The Queen proceeds to murder her husband, finding her stepdaughter with a new family, whereupon she throws her stepdaughter's baby into the woods to die and frames the princess for it in an attempt to have her [[BurnTheWitch burnt as a witch]].

** Some fans have claimed that including "King Grizzlebeard/Thrusbeard" here is a bad thing, since the tale is seen as "misogynistic" for supposedly "shaming women into submitting to men". In reality Helena wasn't punished for mocking her suitors and not wanting to marry any of them... but for ''being an immature, stuck-up and needlessly cruel RoyalBrat who treated people like shit when they didn't deserve it''.

** Miss Cat, the cat maid from "The Marriage of Mrs. Fox" has gained some fans from UsefulNotes/FurryFandom.

* PopularWithFurries: The Wolf from ''Little Red Riding Hood'' and Mrs. Fox from ''The Marriage of Mrs. Fox'' have some recognition amongst the furry fandom.

* StrangledByTheRedString: As the "Snow White" episode ends, we're told Snow White married...not Klaus, who's her oldest friend, who helped her to escape from her stepmother, who nearly managed to get her to the protection of his uncle's castle, whom she dreamed about and missed and who searched nonstop to find her again. This is understandable, since you could argue they're more LikeBrotherAndSister than anything else and that Snow White isn't a prize Klaus automatically earns by helping her out -- but then we learn she marries Klaus's friend the Prince, who only shows up in the last fifteen minutes of the episode and whom she never says a word to. Granted, this is whom she married in the original fairy tale, but if Klaus was going to receive so much more development than his friend, why didn't they just make it so that he was the Prince?

* DieForOurShip: Both Snow White '''AND''' her Prince are blasted for getting together, when the fans preferred Snow White with her ''and'' the Prince's friend Klaus. The Prince is accused of "stealing" Snow White from Klaus (because according to the fandom Klaus is "owed" love by Snow, whereas in-story he never chased after her), whereas Snow is called a shallow GoldDigger for choosing the Prince over Klaus (because agin according to them, a girl must marry a guy that she doesn't romantically like, just because he was nice to her).

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: The Japanese [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oE_JC8Gwhbg opening and ending themes]].

** The series' rendition of "Rapunzel" has [[spoiler: the aftermath of [[StarCrossedLovers Rapunzel and the Prince]]'s separation, with the [[EyeScream now blinded]] Prince [[IWillFindYou searching for his lost love]] ''non-stop for several years''. The poor guy is seen leaning on a walking stick, [[EyesAlwaysShut his injured eyes perpetually closed]], [[SayMyName calling out to Rapunzel]] in despair... which makes their reunion, the Prince being healed by Rapunzel's SwissArmyTears, his [[BabiesEverAfter meeting his and Rapunzel's son]] [[LukeIAmYourFather where he immediately acknowledges the kid as such]] ''and'' [[EarnYourHappyEnding the three's return to the Prince's kingdom among the cheers of the crowds]] [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming as sweet as possible]].]]

* MisaimedFandom:
** Some fans have claimed that including "King Grizzlebeard/Thrusbeard" here is a bad thing, since the tale is seen as "misogynistic" for supposedly "shaming women into submitting to men". In reality Helena wasn't punished for mocking her suitors and not wanting to marry any of them... but for ''being an immature, stuck-up and needlessly cruel RoyalBrat who treated people like shit when they didn't deserve it''.
** Similarly, some fans apply DracoInLeatherPants to none other than ''Bluebeard'' and blame Josephine for being his target. Sure, Josephine did go through AcquiredSituationalNarcissism after marrying him and being suddenly showered in riches, but it still doesn't compare to '''Bluebeard killing the women he married before her and then trying to murder her for finding out'''.

* RonTheDeathEater: The titular fox from "The Wolf and the Fox" is jumped on by some viewers who feel like him setting up the wolf to die at the end of the episode was too cruel. Never mind that said wolf had practically blackmailed the fox into either being his slave or being eaten alive, forced him to go search for food during the winter, and later started denying him of the food he'd find for himself.

** From the same story, there's [[spoiler:the death of Maria's father]], something that doesn't happen in the original fairy tale.
