History YMMV / TotalTrauma

* MisaimedMarketing: An early sticker pack had a Courtney/Cecily sticker available despite the comic later portraying said relationship as flawed due to the age gap. Wyatt [[https://totaltrauma.tumblr.com/post/623015727060926464/theres-a-courtneycecily-sticker-in-the-first-tt removed the sticker]] from prins store due to concerns about this.

* HollywoodPudgy: Wyatt has been mentioning wanting to make Gwen fat since Volume 1, however Gwen's "chubby" design from Volume 2 barely looks any bigger than her usual figure. Gwen's hips and waist are slightly bigger but she's definitely not chubby, let alone fat, her body is merely curvy like Courtney or Zoey's.

** True, Cecily and Courtney's relationship was kinda morally grey to begin with, but in "The Right To Love" [[spoiler:There's something saddening about watching Cecily break up with her.]]

** [[spoiler:Duncan attempting suicide by throwing himself in front of a truck]]? Horrifying. The comic's creator [[https://totaltrauma.tumblr.com/post/641773012886093824/streaming-now hosting]] a "Killed The B*** Celebration Stream" the day after? Guiltily hilarious.

** Some of the stories are harder to read in spite of certain events.

** Zoey adapted a sexual image to soak in the affection of her lecherous fanboys, because she never had any sort of positive attention until then, and when she finally speaks out about her mental health, the fanboys still just want to f*** her.

-->'''Vito:''' Zoey, listen. Your body is your own, and just because you were comfortable with something at one point doesn't mean you have to keep on doing it. You don't owe that to anyone. If you want to do something anymore, '''you can absolutely go back.'''

** The [[https://totaltrauma.tumblr.com/post/626209102356480000/i-was-always-confused-on-this-aspect-of-td-so#notes comic's interpretation of Alejandro's time in the robot]] exploits the FridgeHorror in the show for all it's worth. In short: Chris put the burnt Alejandro in the suit and essentially ''kidnapped him'' to protect ''Total Drama'''s reputation, used him as a slave, then left Alejandro in Chef's care after Chris was arrested, where he was mostly locked up in a basement. The claim in ''All Stars'' that Alejandro's voice chip broke was a lie, as in reality, Chef ''removed the chip'' to [[IHaveNoMouthAndIMustScream prevent Alejandro from complaining]], something even [[EvenEvilHasStandards Chris is shook by]]. Oh, and Alejandro walking on his hands in the canon and then [[spoiler:revealing he was able to walk by the end]]? His legs ''are'' actually permanently damaged; Chris refused to give him a wheelchair out of ''pure spite,'' then forced him to claim that he was able to walk all along. Even though Heather and Alejandro sue the hell out of Chris for this, the comic shows that Alejandro has severe PTSD as a result of this torture. "[[https://totaltraumacomic.tumblr.com/post/626185825802190848/casket Casket]]" is especially creepy as it offers a look at what the inside of the robot looked like, with Alejandro strapped to the robot, badly scarred, and crying.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: While Volume 1 was still being released readers found it difficult to feel any sympathy for Chris when he found out about Duncan's suicide attempt, largely due to the fact that one of the previous comics depicted him sexually harassing Lindsay while she was still a minor. During the planning for Volume 2 Wyatt decided to retroactively change the comic so that Chris wasn't the one assaulting a minor.

* HilariousInHindsight: In one of the story's pages published in 2020, when Heather and Gwen call Courtney out for being in a relationship with Cecily due to their age gap, it's shown in a flashback montage that Courtney [[https://totaltraumacomic.tumblr.com/tagged/total%20trauma%20comic/chrono/page/5 had a younger boyfriend called Caleb]] before meeting Cecily. Three years later, when the ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'' revival gets released, it's stated that it has been fifteen years since the first season and one of the new contestants is a handsome boy named Caleb.
