* CompleteMonster: [[LesCollaborateurs Durand]] is a resident of the small French town of Grangeville. After the town is [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII occupied by the Nazis]], Durand becomes a [[TreacheryIsASpecialKindOfEvil traitorous collaborator]].

When a group of children who name themselves the Robinsons start to resist the Nazis, Durand tries to expose them and have them arrested by the Nazis. Durand manages to get their teacher Mr. Herbin arrested.

Durand ultimately finds the Robinsons' clubhouse in the woods and informs the Nazis of it, happy that the Nazis intend to kill everyone there.

* AnimationAgeGhetto: Definitely avoided the ghetto. The main characters are children living through the horrors of war. While most of the violence is toned down, there is still plenty of (mostly offscreen) death, dead bodies, explosions, and plenty of AdultFear, all of which is treated maturely.

* FriendlyFandoms: As per PeripheryDemographic, a number of fans of the show are teenagers and adults who still enjoy a good World War II story, intrigued by its ability to handle dark subject matter in a way palatable for kids. Said fans are also naturally fans of the history PowerMetal band ''Music/{{Sabaton}}'', and have mashed up [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEMYZorSgHY Sabaton songs to clips of the show]] to create AnimatedMusicVideo compliations that have reached ''millions'' of views, with comments praising the show.
* PeripheryDemographic: The show is targeted towards older kids and features a young main cast with animation akin to other children's shows. However, its ability to avert the AnimationAgeGhetto by treating its young audience with maturity and respect for their capacity to understand the perils of World War II without excessive violence has caused a lot of its fans to be teenagers and adults who are just fans of World War II stories in general, not minding or even outright respecting its ability to tell a compelling story for younger ages regarding the deadliest conflict in human history.
