* CompleteMonster ("The Collector"): [[LivingDollCollector Chip]] is an antique collector, obsessed with keeping his merchandise in mint condition. Growing unsatisfied with collecting only items, he decided to collect people. He turns them into dolls, where they are [[AndIMustScream conscious, but trapped]], a fate which he has inflicted on many people, including [[WouldHurtAChild Valentino's younger brother]]. He is more than willing to inflict the same fate on Valentino when he tries to rescue them.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Victor is a highly divisive character, mostly from how he's a huge jerk. One side thinks he's too [[Main/UnintentionallyUnsympathetic unlikable]], causes many of the problems of each episode, and feel he [[AesopAmnesia never really seems to actually learn anything]]. The other side thinks he's [[Main/JerkWithAHeartOfGold still a good person even with his flaws]], is slowly yet surely developing into a better person, and there are times where he can be [[Main/JerkassWoobie sympathetic nonetheless]].

* BrokenAesop: "Plandemonium" has Valentino make a plan for a day with Isabella, only to have a miserable time because things went awry. The episode ends with an Aesop of "go with the flow and don't be too meticulous", however, the issue isn't with plans themselves but more that Valentino was inflexible, assumed everything would go smoothly, and didn't prepare contingencies.

* SoOkayItsAverage: Reception for the show so far has been pretty much this. It's regarded as being a fairly generic "heroes screw up and must defeat the MonsterOfTheWeek to fix everything and learn a big lesson in the process about responsibility" type of show, but otherwise harmless enough to avoid being straight-up bad. It has garnered a large Latino-American following though, which is the show's intended audience.

** Due to thematic similarities (a two sibling team with differing personalities, living with an older relative for the summer, and being in a small town with supernatural creatures), the series has some overlap with fans of ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls''.

* GrowingTheBeard: Most fans agree that the last ten episodes are of particularly high quality, especially "Oneiric Vic" as it is extremely experimental and uses no dialogue. Meanwhile the plot threads are largely wrapped up in the other ones.

** Xochi's girlfriend(?) Amabel isn't the most popular character to come out of the show.
