History YMMV / Lackadaisy

** Mordecai, too, has a large sex appeal with the fans because of his sharply dressed, handsome, and too-serious manner.

** In the animated short, why does Mordecai let Ivy go rather that shoot her? Does he consider her a relative innocent compared to Rocky and Freckle and thus not deserving of death? Does he consider her no threat and thus NotWorthKilling? Did his time at Lackadaisy leave him with fond memories of Ivy, and/or her father? Did he decide to spare her because she and the others were retreating, meaning shooting them would be dishonorable and/or cowardly? Does she remind him of [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes his younger sisters]] on some level? Does he need her alive for some reason? [[spoiler:Given that the comic is heavily implying Mordecai is a FakeDefector, does that factor into why he decides to let the "stragglers from Lackadaisy" live?]]

* CantUnhearIt: With the animated pilot's debut, many new fans started to imagine the voice cast in action whenever they read the comic. Particularly Creator/MichaelKovach for Rocky and [[Creator/ProZD SungWon Cho]] for Mordecai.

** Serafine Savoy is a pretty good candidate for this, especially with her various Voodoo lady outfits and pantsuits.

** Nicodeme Savoy is the ruggedly handsome type.
* FandomRivalry: After the release of the pilot, it started growing one with ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' and, by extension, ''WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss'', as all three shows feature dark comedy and anthro characters. Many ''Lackadaisy'' fans started it superior to ''Hazbin''/''Helluva'' and vice versa. An interesting example given how the [[FriendlyFandoms two fandoms were 100% on friendly terms]] prior to the pilot.

** There's also a good number of fans who prefer Viktor/Ivy to the canon Calvin/Ivy.

* FriendlyFandoms: Despite the aforementioned FandomRivalry, many ''Hazbin Hotel'' and ''Helluva Boss'' fans do get along with ''Lackadaisy'' fans. Helped by the fact that some of the crew who worked on the ''Lackadaisy'' pilot also worked on ''Hazbin''.

* FanNickname: Mordecai's ''Mo'Cai'' on the site's forum.

** Rocky could be considered this to some readers. He has zero moral qualms about working for a criminal organization or tricking his cousin into joining said organization. He's childish, irresponsible, and an all-around nuisance. However, he suffers from some sort of AmbiguousDisorder that makes it hard for him to relate to others, His aunt seems to have completely disowned him, and his letters to Calvin imply that his father is a complete deadbeat. He express fear of being replaced and states that he likes working at Lackadaisy because "they tolerate me". It's painfully clear that he's tried to find a place in society so many times, but it just keeps going wrong. He [[spoiler: lives in his car, gets ran over by a fucking hearse of all things, and he was sent away for a family tragedy that likely wasn't even his fault.]] If the final pages of volume 2 are any indicators, he could snap at any moment.

* HoYay: In the animated pilot, Zib briefly seems to be hitting on Wick at one point.

* FanPreferredCouple: Zib/Mitzi, otherwise known as "Zibzi". Tracy's confirmed that Zib and Mitzi ''were'' together in the past, which helps, despite her and Wick's current mutual interest.

* FriendlyFandoms: Despite the aforementioned FandomRivalry, many ''Hazbin Hotel'' and ''Helluva Boss'' fans do get along with ''Lackadaisy'' fans. Mainly due to some of the crew who worked on ''Hazbin'' also worked on this show.

* FriendlyFandoms: With the ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' and ''WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss'' fandoms, as they share an appreciation for dark humor and anthro characters. Some of the crew on the Lackadaisy short project even met each other through Hazbin.

* WhatAnIdiot: Emery is absent during Rocky's attack on the pig farm because he's playing checkers and shooting squirrels with a neighbor. Eventually, Emery sees smoke coming from the site of the pig farm.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Emery would put two and two together about what was happening with Rocky and make his way to the pig farm as fast as he could. Or even if he didn't, the sight of that much smoke would let him know was something's up, and it would still be worth investigating.\\
'''Instead:''' Emery continues playing checkers and shooting squirrels, not a care in the world, unable to connect the very large dots. One of his brothers smacks Emery with a bucket and angrily asks why he didn't react to the sight of smoke nearby, and only then does Emery get the hint.

* TheWoobie: What we've been shown of Calvin so far. He's a good boy who's grown up under the very strict thumb of his devoutly religious mother, which has to an extent resulted in making him prone to violent outbursts and immediately regretting them after they happen. He also completely looks up to Rocky, who to an extent is just using him as a sidekick on his illegal exploits.

* SugarWiki/DevelopmentHeaven: Creator Tracy Butler did not ''have'' to maintain the accuracy of the architecture, clothes, and phrase choices of the 20s, but chose to, and is sticking to it.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: Unless you think murderous bootlegging psycho cats are good role models for your children.

* FoeYay: Serafine and Mordecai, according to some.
** Fueled further [[http://lackadaisy.foxprints.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=435 by this.]] (and adding Nico in the mix).
** Nico seems awfully fond of Mordecai too. In one comic, Nico [[http://lackadaisy.foxprints.com/comic.php?comicid=154 blows a kiss]] at Mordecai. Nico often calls him affectionate nicknames such as "Peekon" and "Petite Hache".
** Also Viktor and Mordecai. [[http://www.lackadaisycats.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=327 Take a look at drunk Mordecai if you aren't convinced.]] That said, [[http://lackadaisy.foxprints.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=338 Viktor and Mordecai aren't quite on board with the fandom.]]

** Mordecai and Viktor killing an innocent (albeit annoying) little dog? Horrible. Mordecai forcing said dog at gunpoint to [[DigYourOwnGrave dig his own grave]]? Good ''God''. [[https://www.lackadaisy.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=347 Non-canon, but still]].

* CrazyAwesome: Rocky. One of his first exploits includes him trying to burn down a barn by launching a burning truck into it. The first one misses, so what does he do? ''He drives the second one himself''.

* FriendlyFandoms: With the ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' and ''WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss'' fandoms, as they share an appreciation for dark humor and anthro characters. Some of the crew on the Lackadaisy short project even met eachother through Hazbin.

* DesignatedHero: The Lackadaisy Gang gets this title, being the protagonists. But being bootleggers who stop at nothing to keep their struggling business afloat means they aren't exactly paragons of all things pure and good.

* FriendlyFandoms: With the Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss fandoms, as they share an appreciation for dark humor and anthro characters. The Lackadaisy short project is even headed by a former animator on Hazbin and some of the crew also met eachother through working on it.
