13	* BigBadassBattleSequence: Nate and Nathaniel summon their own army of Yo-kai to fend off against Dame Dedtime's forces.
14	* DisneyVillainDeath: Somewhat {{subverted\|Trope}} for [[spoiler: Dame Dedtime and her henchmen]], as they just disappear. As Whisper mentioned in the anime, Yo-kai can't die.

16	* TheForeignSubtitle: {{Inverted\|Trope}}, as the Japanese version's subtitle was omitted from most international releases (including the English dub), likely in case [[Anime/YokaiWatchShadowsideTheReturnOfTheOniKing the]] [[Anime/YokaiWatchForeverFriends other]] [[Anime/YokaiWatchJamTheMovieYokaiAcademyYCanACatBeAHero movies]] [[NoExportForYou don't get localized.]]

22	* SesameStreetCred: In the Japanese version, comedian Ken Shimura voices Master Nyada, and Haruka Shimazaki of Music/{{AKB48}} voices the younger version of Nate's grandmother.
23	* TimeyWimeyBall: Oh boy, where do we begin?:
24	** In the original timeline, Nathaniel created the prototype Watch, but was changed thanks to Kin and Gin who inspirited some bullies to pick on his friend. So this means that Nathaniel started becoming Moximous Mask and ditches the invention of the Watch in the changed path.
25	** Then Hovernyan enters the scene and tells Nate about what happened. Nate then encourages his grandfather to make the watch.
26	* TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] in the English dub when Dame Dedtime becomes Dame Demona:
