* UncertainAudience: Some reviews have noted confusion over the first season's intended target audience. The show's cartoonish artstyle, its themes about friendship and coming-of-age in a magical high school setting, and straight-forward fantasy plot suggests it's intended for children, but the show's more complex themes around prejudice and marginalisation (which are largely brushed aside to focus on a 'save-the-world from an EvilOverlord' plot by the second half), the emphasis on romantic subplots, the regular use of profanity and occasional sexual references suggest a teenage or older audience. Notably, the book series the show is based on is clearly intended for older readers, with the author's website stating "''Supernatural Academy'' is a sexy urban fantasy book series recommended for readers aged 17 and up due to language and sex scenes." The show [[TamerAndChaster tones it]] [[KinderAndCleaner down]] to get a TV-14 rating, but it subsequently has [[InNameOnly very little in common]] with the source material; while some book fans don't mind the show, they generally approach it as a completely separate entity to the books, while others are baffled by the way it was adapted.

*CompleteMonster: The [[BigBad Dragon King]] is a powerful dragon-shifter who started a war of conquest that devastated the Faerie realm. Defeated and sealed by the combined efforts of supernaturals, he cursed the descendants of the individuals who defeated him to be his servants when he returns to either destroy or conquer the human world, leading to the creation of the Dragon Marked. After being freed by the efforts of Archibold Kristov and the East-West Dragon Marked twins, the Dragon King [[UngratefulBastard rewards them]] by brainwashing the twins into his slaves and burning Kristov alive. He tries to kill Mischa and Jessa as a prelude to raining death and destruction on humans and supernaturals alike.
