History YMMV / SymBionicTitan

* FanPreferredCouple: Many fans choose to ignore Tartakovsky's statement that Ilana and Lance are supposed to have a platonic relationship. To be fair, the show itself has plenty of ShipTease between them.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Kristin the {{goth}} girl. While he doesn't show up that much in the show, having roughly [[OneSceneWonder two scenes]] to her name and not even ''being'' named outside the credits, she left a very favorable impression thanks to her cute design, natural chemistry with Lance while avoiding DieForOurShip from the Lance x Ilana fans, and hints of being a genuine ActionGirl able to [[https://youtu.be/kD1jwU3pce4?feature=shared spar on good footing with Lance]]. Had the show not been cancelled, many hoped that she would have became a more regular character and possibly a BattleCouple with Lance.

* OneSceneWonder: Kristin has more like two.

** Good luck finding anyone in the fandom who doesn't believe that Lance's father is the mysterious leader of G3. The general theory is that Edward created a prototype of the Gate that didn't kill him, but teleported him to Earth. Unable to return home, he used his knowledge of Galalunian technology and martial arts to create G3. This would explain why G3 never attempts to apprehend the trio whose presence summons alien threats to Earth; aside from the one time where Solomon deliberately disobeyed his orders. The true clincher was his ability to reactivate Octus after he experienced a total power failure, something only someone with familiarity with Octus would be able to accomplish.

* {{Fanon}}: It's commonly speculated that Modula's sudden change from war hero to monster is because what we see isn't the real Modula. The hat he wears is speculated to be a creature of some kind that is controlling his body or corrupting him. The fact that it has an eye that seems to follow wherever Modula supposedly looks, while his real eyes are never shown, suggests there may be some truth it at least isn't a normal hat.

** "Escape from Galaluna": The [[NoNameGiven unnamed]] Galalunan commander is a [[SmugSnake smug]], [[AmbitionIsEvil ambitious traitor]] who uses his front as an obstructive, obnoxious military head to ensure the death of captive hostages while [[FrameUp pinning their deaths on Lance]] and leaving him to hang. In truth having allied with Modula, the traitor sells out his entire planet to the Mutraddi forces to see the royal family killed and its populace decimated and enslaved, looking over the carnage and [[EvilGloating gloating]] that the only reason he sold his planet out was to lead Galaluna into an age of "conquest and strength"--and the prospect of a vast reward from Modula.

* FanMyopia: It might be justified because of the series' short life span, but fans will make this show out to be CN's only saving grace to outside observers, [[WesternAnimation/AdventureTime disregarding]] [[WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooMysteryIncorporated the]] [[WesternAnimation/RegularShow other]] [[WesternAnimation/GeneratorRex good]] [[WesternAnimation/YoungJustice shows]] [[WesternAnimation/ThunderCats2011 on]] [[WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball its]] [[WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow line-]][[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold up]] and promising to boycott any CN show that appears until the show gets a second season. [[SarcasmMode Which will work, right?]] The kicker? They tend to also forget Creator/GenndyTartakovsky left CN to work for Sony shortly after the series ended. The protest was doomed almost from the beginning. The return of the series is now dependent on the amount of funding and support given to Tartakovsky for his future projects, and whether or not an established production crew has interest in making more episodes. Now, an adaptation to a less expensive medium is not entirely out of the question.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Many have theorized that Modula's sudden change from war hero to monster is because what we see isn't the real Modula. The hat he wears is speculated to be a creature of some kind that is controlling his body or corrupting him. The fact that it has an eye that seems to follow wherever Modula supposedly looks, while his real eyes are never shown, suggests there may be some truth it at least isn't a normal hat.

* TastesLikeDiabetes: Octus gets hooked on a childrens' edutainment show in the third episode.

* UncannyValley:

* RetroactiveRecognition: Apparently, Lance roomed with [[Creator/ZachCallison Steven]] [[WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse Universe]] during his time at military academy. And from the same show, Brian Posehn (Octus) would also go on to voice Sour Cream.

* {{Narm}}: Many dramatic/tearjerking/heartwarming moments can be ruined by the art style of the show. It can range from odd facial expressions to the characters being entirely OffModel.

* WhatAnIdiot:
** It isn't ''wise'' to tell a refugee princess that everyone on her home planet is probably ''dead''. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Nice Job Breaking It, Lance.]]
** It's not a good idea to transform into a giant robot IN PUBLIC.
** Even though it's a given for his GeneralRipper persona, General Steel's thickheadedness, lack of sense, and refusal to listen to reason leaves one to wonder as to how come he hasn't been sacked for gross incompetence.
** Believing a Traitorous General and Ignoring Lance's Warning that an Invasion is coming. Way to go, King, you have doomed Galaluna.
