3	----
4	!!!''WesternAnimation/{{Wakfu}}'' provides examples of the following tropes:
5
6	* AbhorrentAdmirer: All four ugly princesses, to Sadlygrove, in episode 4.
7	* AbnormalAmmo:
8	** Evangelyne's arrows can ''create rain'' if shot at a cloud.
9	** The Black Raven has the ability to shoot ''[[RuleOfCool bird eggs that hatch in mid-air and become Raven Rounds]]''. And that's [[JustifiedTrope pretty much par for the course]] -- shooting ravens is actually a power of the Black Raven's race/class from the game (Osamodas' Whip): the spell "[[http://dofuswiki.wikia.com/wiki/Crow_%28spell%29 Crow]]" (in ''VideoGame/{{Dofus}}'') and "[[http://wakfu.wikia.com/wiki/Crobak_%28Spell%29 Crobak]]" (in ''Wakfu'').
10	* AbortedArc: After the beginning two-parter of Season 2 ominously shows that she survived, Shadofang doesn't show up again aside from a gag in the credits.
11	* {{Acrofatic}}:
12	** The Dragon-Pig
13	** The Mmmmmmmmmporpg
14	* ActionBomb: The Noxines. Nox tries to take out Grougaloragran with a swarm of them exploding with wakfu when close enough to the dragon.
15	* AdiposeRex: King Sheran Sharm
16	* AdorableEvilMinions: Both Nox and Rushu have some pretty cute {{Mooks}}.
17	* AfroAsskicker: Ruel's grandmother, who has a head of white hair bigger than she is.
18	* AgeWithoutYouth: Nox
19	* AgonyOfTheFeet:
20	** In episode 22, Sadlygrove (suffering from a heat stroke) is wary of the mirages he's been seeing, so he gives one a good kick (barefoot) -- only that one wasn't a mirage.
21	** Shortly happens to Yugo in season 2 episode 1, from a gerbil's bite.
22	** In season 2 episode 5, [[spoiler:Sadlygrove]] gets bitten by the [[spoiler:Evangelyne]] pig.
23	** Ruel gets his foot stomped by his grandmother in season 2 episode 7.
24	* AirborneMook: The Noxines
25	* AirGuitar: The Brak'n'Boyz, the rock group cheering for the Brak'n'Black during the Brâkmarian Gobbowl match.
26	* AirVentPassageway: Done by Yugo in episode 23 of season 2 in the Sufokian submarine.
27	* AlienInvasion: Revealed to be [[spoiler:the reason why the Eliatropes had to leave their world]] in season 2 episode 6.
28	* AllJustADream: [[spoiler:A big chunk of episode 20.]] [[MindScrew Thank.]] [[NightmareFuel Crâ.]]
29	* AllPartOfTheShow: Sadlygrove believes the Voice Thief attacking a candidate to be part of the song audition.
30	* AllThereInTheManual: The series is based off of a Tactical MMORPG by the same name, which is in turn based off an ''older'' Tactical MMORPG called ''VideoGame/{{Dofus}}''.
31	* AllWebbedUp: Happens to the heroes in episode 13, thanks to Grufon possessing an arachne.
32	* AlmostKiss: One between Yugo and Amalia during Season 3 Episode 4.
33	* AlwaysABiggerFish: Spoofed and {{exaggerated\|Trope}} in season 2 episode 21. A monster pursuing the girls is replaced by a bigger one not once, but ''four'' times in short succession.
34	* {{Ambadassador}}: Master Joris
35	* AmplifierArtifact:
36	** The Eliacube. Nox planned to use it to boost his time-manipulation powers and travel back 200 years. [[spoiler:And when Yugo gets his hands on the Cube in episode 26, it boosts his usual portal power, teleporting the whole Giant Clock mecha to Mt. Zinit.]] The prequel episode "Noximilien" reveals that [[spoiler:Nox had no particular talent for magic before he found the Eliacube]]. And as of season 2: [[spoiler:Qilby merges with it to replace his missing arm and boost his powers...]]
37	** Also, Igôle's collar.
38	* AmuletOfDependency: The Eliacube to Nox.
39	* AmusementPark: The Trool Fair.
40	* AmusingInjuries: Regularly.
41	** Amalia gets a lump and a black eye before the first Gobbowl match. And ends up in a full-body cast after the second.
42	** Yugo, Sadlygrove, Evangelyne and Amalia after they stepped into Ruel's shovel trap in episode 9.
43	* AncientAstronauts: [[spoiler:The Eliatropes]], as we learn in season 2 episode 6. [[spoiler:It turns out that Mount Zinit is actually a space ship.]]
44	* {{Angrish}}:
45	** Amalia in episode 8.
46	** Kriss Krass is reduced to this toward Jay at the end of the Bontarian Gobbowl match.
47	* AngryDance:
48	** The Bullies in episode 5 shortly performs a Haka-like dance before the big fight.
49	** So do the Sadida warriors in episode 19.
50	* AngryGuardDog: Ruel's house has one. Doesn't look like much... until [[{{Sizeshifter}} it grows]].
51	* AnimalEaredHeadband:
52	** The Eliatropes' hats resemble this.
53	** All the cheerleaders (including Eva and Amalia) in the Bontarian Gobbowl arc wear bunny-eared headbands.
54	* AnguishedOutburst: After [[spoiler:Nox finally succeeds in gathering enough Wakfu to time travel, only to realize he can only go back by 20 minutes]], he begins to cry and scream in rage.
55	* TheAnimeOfTheGame: A Western Animation example, though the ''Wakfu'' universe is technically cross-media. Subverted somewhat in that the game was originally supposed to be released in early 2009, before the series started, but [[DevelopmentHell it wasn't released until 2012]]. The game is also explicitly set a decade or so before the series. (Yugo's adoptive father Alibert is one of the few [=NPCs=] in the game, and Yugo is upstairs in his house as an infant.)
56	* {{Animesque}}: With some {{Fanservice}} thrown in for good measure.
57	* AnnoyingArrows: Averted; the arrows made of pure light that Evangelyne and other Crâ shoot are quite deadly. It's a shame about [[ATeamFiring their aim]].
58	* AnotherDimension: The World of Rushu.
59	* AntiMagic: A special device with mobile eyes can nullify magic powers. One is seen in the prison of the Justice Knight, and another in the wrestling arena of the Trool Fair.
60	* {{Arcadia}}: Amakna, Emelka and the outer boundaries of Bonta.
61	* AristocratsAreEvil:
62	** The Brâkmarian nobles. [[spoiler:They were planning to use The Mmmmmmmmmporpg as a weapon against Bonta.]]
63	** Remington's nemesis, Ush Galesh, who is, in addition to being one of wealthiest individuals in Bonta, is an insatiably sadistic murderer and just happens to be [[spoiler:the son of Ecaflip, and therefore a demigod.]]
64	* AnArmAndALeg: Qilby, who lost his left arm.
65	* AndIMustScream: [[spoiler:Qilby]] was trapped in a featureless void for ages.
66	* ApocalypseHow:
67	** Centuries before the start of the series, [[GreaterScopeVillain Ogrest]] caused a ApocalypseHow/Class1 (possibly a mild ApocalypseHow/Class4 for the biosphere itself) in the form of TheGreatFlood which reshaped the entire planet's topography from a large continent into scattered islands. [[spoiler:And he's still slowly causing sea levels to rise and threaten the remaining landmasses into the present day, until the heroes confront him in the [=OVAs=]]].
68	*** The [=OVAs=] in question see a particularly dynamic ApocalypseHow/Class0 in the form of [[spoiler:the entirety of Mount Zinit being lifted into space]], causing meteor chunks to rain down on the World of Twelve, and [[spoiler:the mountain being permanently transported into Shukrute]].
69	** Nox in Season 1 has quite a bit of this around him:
70	*** He's successfully inflicted several [[ApocalypseHow/Class0 Class 0's]] by wiping out entire countries in the process of draining wakfu from living things over the course of his 200-year quest.
71	*** And when he goes after the [[spoiler:Tree of Life]], by that act alone he threatens to cause a mild ApocalypseHow/Class3A, as the [[spoiler:Sadidas as a species]] have a NoOntologicalInertia relationship with the Tree. [[spoiler:He succeeds in partly draining the Tree to the point that it starts dying and the Sadidas start perishing with it, but Nox's cosmic ResetButton reverses it all before we can see the full effects]].
72	*** Grougaloragran believes reversing time isn't possible, and Nox's attempt to do so will only cause a ApocalypseHow/ClassX-[[ApocalypseHow/ClassX4 X4]] by ripping apart "the fabric of the world". [[spoiler:This is {{subverted}}, as Nox successfully reverses time without any such consequences]].
73	** This comes from two angles in Season 2:
74	*** [[spoiler:Qilby]] intends to drain the World of Twelve of its wakfu, which it has "just enough" of to get [[spoiler:the Zinit]] off the ground and ready to cruise the Krosmoz again. The guy ''insists'' the world won't be [[ApocalypseHow/Class6 destr]][[ApocalypseHow/ClassX oyed]] though, it'll just be a bit, erm... ''[[ApocalypseHow/Class4 rav]][[ApocalypseHow/Class5 aged]]''.
75	*** Whilst near the season's end, Rushu and his Shushu army successfully swarm into the World of Twelve attempting to invade. They're purely {{Omnicidal Maniac}}s by nature and motive, who have already [[ApocalypseHow/Class6 destroyed just about everything there is for them to destroy in their home dimension]].
76	** In Season 3, Oropo's plan is to inflict a ApocalypseHow/ClassX4 on the HomeOfTheGods by [[spoiler:combining the Eliacube and six Eliatrope Dofus to form a [[DoomsdayDevice dimension-destroying bomb]]]]. It's also strongly suggested he'd inflict some kind of Apocalypse How on the World of Twelve to cut off the population's prayers will feed the gods' powers.
77	* ArtifactOfAttraction / ArtifactOfDoom: The Eliacube. [[spoiler:In "Noximilien", it induces unhealthy obsession in Igôle, then with Nox, leading to paranoia and delusions of grandeur. The loss of his family is more the last straw pushing him over the edge after a long descent than a real trigger for his madness. Whether the artifact can really talk to Nox or the Xelor is just hearing voices is left unclear, but the latter is more likely.]]\
78	No wonder [[spoiler:Yugo is ''extremely wary'' of using the Cube at the beginning of season 2, even in order to discover the fate of his people, fearing that he could become like Nox]].\
79	Qilby on the other hand, knows how to get the most mileage out of the Eliacube with no apparent detrimental effects. [[spoiler:His particular brand of insanity wasn't caused by the Eliacube.]]
80	* ArtificialLimbs: [[spoiler:Qilby fusing with the Eliacube as a replacement arm.]]
81	* ArtShift:
82	** Can be seen in episode 14, when the tribe's old chief, Botan Ficus, tells his story. The flashback is in a primitive/tribal art form.
83	** Also, a minor one in episode 12 ("Gobbowl Hell 3"), with an artist making a very stylized painting of the heroes.
84	** During the brawl in episode 19, there's a few shots who clearly mimics the style of ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIV'' art.
85	** The specials, like "Noximilien" or ''The Legend of Ogrest'', are in a different art style than the main series.
86	* AscendedExtra: Several minor characters get their own graphic novels in the ''WAKFU Heroes'' series: Kabrok & Miranda (''Le Corbeau Noir''), Percimol, Remington & Grany, Maskemane, Elaine & Encre Noire (''Tangomango'').
87	* AsideGlance: Ruel glances at the audience from time to time. For example, when Grovy asks him "Who's this 'courtesy' guy?"
88	* AsteroidsMonster: Mocked during the season 1 TitleSequence, with Yugo jumping onto some sort of gelatinous cube monster who splits into many smaller, cutesy-looking cubes.
89	* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:Prince Armand gets brutally beaten by Rubilax-powered berserk Sadlygrove during the Brotherhood's stay in the Sadida Kingdom, but it's hard to feel any sympathy for him given that Sadlygrove would not have given into Rubilax's temptation if Armand didn't cheat during their friendly sparring and use all of his Sadida powers to wipe the floor with the Shushu Guardian in front of Evangelyne and Amalia, despite both of them agreeing to a clean hand-to-hand match beforehand. Moreover, Sadlygrove didn't even want to fight him in the first place to respect the girls' wish, but Armand mocked his sense of honor, the one thing Grovy would defend at all costs, to override that resolve.]]
90	* AssShove:
91	** Cleophelia does this to Sadlygrove as a way to help him get over his sea sickness.
92	** Eva uses this in the manga [[spoiler:[[ShipperOnDeck to have Amalia fall on top of Yugo]]]].
93	* AtArmsLength: [[spoiler:Sadlygrove does this to Eva]] while she's trying to retrieve her diary, in season 2 episode 6.
94	* {{Atlantis}}: Sufokia is the setting's equivalent, complete with immersion by an ancient catastrophe.
95	* AttackReflector: Yugo's portals can be used to this end.
96	* AuraVision: Dragons do this; it's how Grougaloragran chose Alibert to be Yugo's adoptive father. [[spoiler:Eliatropes can do it, too.]]
97	* AuthorAvatar: Xav the Baker is inspired by the character designer of the series, Xavier Houssin. Xav's wife and children are also inspired by his own family.
98	* AwesomeButImpractical: [[spoiler:TimeTravel turns out to be this. Contrary to belief, it ''is'' possible, but judging by what Nox had to do for so little reversed time, the amount of wakfu necessary to go back any meaningful length to the past would require easily ''entire planets''' worth of it.]]
99	* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Kabrok and his Ecaflip wife, Miranda.
100	* BabiesEverAfter:
101	** [[spoiler:Kabrok and Miranda]], as seen during season 1's end credits.
102	** Also [[spoiler:Evangelyne]], as implied by the season 2 finale.
103	* BackForTheFinale: [[spoiler:Remington, Grany, and Goultard.]]
104	* BackToBackBadasses:
105	** Evangelyne and Remington in "Rubilaxia".
106	** Evangelyne and Cleophée in "The Zinit".
107	* BadassBoast: Rushu and Goultard allow themselves duelling Badass Boasts:
108	-->'''Rushu:''' The gods are too weak for me to worry about them, you little worm! And it's the same for you: you're just a shadow of your former self!\
109	'''Goultard:''' Which is still more than enough to sent you back from where you're coming. With your slip as handkerchief to wipe out your own tears.
110	* BadassCape:
111	** Vampyro. ''His cape flaps dramatically all by itself''.
112	** Sadlygrove's scarf also seems to function as one when he is trying to act dramatic. This being Sadlygrove, that is quite often.
113	** Remington Smisse
114	** Grougaloragran's cloak does this in the first episode after his brief firebreath-versus-time-control kung fu battle with Nox. It flaps like wings.
115	* BadassCreed:
116	-->'''Smisse Monde:''' If it moves, kill it! If it shines, plunder it!
117	* BadBoss:
118	** Nox wastes his minions for the slightest objections or speaking at the wrong time.
119	** Rushu terrifies even the major Shushus. He's seen using minor ones as projectiles, and incinerates a bunch of his minions just because they're in the way and he's in a hurry.
120	* BadGuyBar: To some extent every bar in Brâkmar. Though you have to make a reservation before starting a BarBrawl.
121	* BadMoonRising: In season 2 episode 5, the moon shortly appears to have a pig's face on it, [[spoiler:as a warning of the Dragon-Pig's ire]].
122	* BagOfHolding:
123	** Ruel's Havresac, which is big enough on the inside to contain a [[HammerspaceHideaway portable house]].
124	** Remington has a Shushu Havresac.
125	* BaguetteBeatdown: The "Breadnought" in episode 8.
126	* BalloonBelly:
127	** Yugo at the end of episode 6.
128	** Az in season 2 episode 1, after feasting on Alibert's food, almost triples his size.
129	* BambooTechnology: In Season 2 Episode 17, Ruel has a sniper rifle. Made from bamboo, but definitely a sniper rifle.
130	* BandageMummy: Amalia ends up in a full-body cast in season 2 episode 12.
131	* BarBrawl: In episode 10 of season 2.
132	* BarehandedBladeBlock: Grougaloragran can do this, but of course, he ''is'' a dragon.
133	* BaseOnWheels: Not perfect examples, but having shades of this:
134	** Nox's clock base
135	** Rubilaxia
136	* BashBrothers:
137	** Yugo and Adamaï.
138	** Remington and Grany Smisse, [[spoiler:until the latter got... "bow-meow-fied"]].
139	** Evangelyne and Cleophée are Bash ''Sisters'', when they're getting along.
140	* BattleAura:
141	** The final scene in episode 12 gave one to all of the Gobbowl players.
142	** Also Yugo and Nox in episode 25 after using the Eliacube.
143	** The end of season 2 when Yugo fights [[spoiler:Qilby]].
144	** [[spoiler:Goultard's]], during the fight against Rushu, is nothing to sneeze at either.
145	* BattleCouple:
146	** After much dancing around the issue, [[spoiler:Sadlygrove and Evangelyne]] finally upgrade to this in episode 25 of season 1.
147	** If you consider Gobbowl as a battle ([[BloodSport and you should]]), then [[spoiler:Kriss and Maude definitely count]].
148	* BattleDiscretionShot: Sometimes.
149	** In season 1 episode 6, the battle against the ghouls inside the inn. Note that the heroes are also [[ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction busy getting dressed while brawling]], so this gives them a little privacy.
150	** In season 2 episode 5, [[spoiler:Sadlygrove's fight against the {{Golem}} MidBoss]] is only shown through its image on the map fissuring.
151	** In season 2 episode 7, the start of the fight inside the gondola. RuleOfFunny more than anything else here, to point out that the air pirates are no match against the heroes.
152	** Most of the BarBrawl in season 2 episode 10.
153	* BattleInTheRain: The final battle in episode 26, with Adamaï and Yugo versus Nox, happens in the rain at Mt. Zinit. It is used to great visual effect when [[spoiler:Nox stops time, and the raindrops first stop falling, hang in the air... and then rise upward when he reverses time]].
154	* BeamOfEnlightenment: [[spoiler:Used by Phaeris on Yugo.]]
155	* BeamOWar:
156	** Between Yugo and the Voice Thief in season 2 episode 14.
157	** Between Yugo and the cursed spring's water sprout in season 2 episode 16.
158	* BeamSpam: The Sufokian Stasis cannons in episode 23 of season 2.
159	* BeardOfEvil:
160	** Remington Smisse
161	** [[spoiler:Qilby]]
162	* BearHug: Canar and Renate gives one to runaway princess Amalia when she comes back to the Sadida kingdom. She soon begs them to not squeeze her so hard.
163	* TheBeastmaster: The Osamodas class.
164	* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: Anathar with his red/black Shukrute portals instead of Yugo's blue/white Wakfu portals. He is even able to surpass the two-simultaneous-portal limitation.
165	* BellyMouth: Anathar
166	* BeQuietNudge: After Sadlygrove starts to blurt out that [[spoiler:he'd already seen Evangelyne naked]], Eva, while denying, casually chokes him with an arm around his neck to stop him from adding a word.
167	* BerserkButton:
168	** Don't mention Armand's bad breath to his face.
169	** [[spoiler:Rubilax threatening to turn Evangelyne into a ghoul]] is what provokes Sadlygrove's UnstoppableRage in episode 22. In fact, almost every time Grovy's CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass comes out, it's in response to Eva being in danger ([[FelonyMisdemeanor or being hit on]]).
170	** Don't call The Mmmmmmmmmporpg by his [[EmbarrassingFirstName birth name]]. No, seriously, don't. Unless, well, you want ''the whole town razed''.
171	** [[spoiler:Qilby]] doesn't take being called a traitor very well.
172	* BewitchedAmphibians: Plenty weird frog hybrids are found in the tower of the Ugly Princesses. They are all former princes who tried to break their curse with a kiss, except it happened to be insincere.
173	* BeyondTheImpossible: Nox's whole plan of [[spoiler:traveling back in time]], something which even the god of time, Xelor himself, can't do. [[spoiler:He succeeds in going back in time, but only by twenty minutes.]]
174	* {{BFS}}:
175	** Rubilax in full combat mode;
176	** The Black Raven's huge sword-lance hybrid;
177	** Remington's sword Shushu;
178	** Bourlof the Butcher
179	* BigBad:
180	** The first season introduced [[AntiVillain Nox]] the Xelor, a magic-powered [[PunkPunk Clockwork]] "Time Magic" user.
181	** Season 2 gives us [[OmnicidalManiac Rushu]], the [[EvilOverlord ruler]] of the [[CardCarryingVillain Shushu]], but it seems like [[spoiler:Qilby, after [[TheReveal showing his]] [[{{Pun}} true colors]]]] has taken the spot.
182	** The [=OVAs=] have a BigBadEnsemble between Lady Echo, the mysterious leader of the Siblings, an organization that wants to protect the World of Twelve from destruction, and an insane dofus-infused Ogrest, whose tears are flooding said world.
183	* BigBallOfViolence: Sadlygrove manages to invoke this by scribbling very fast on a blackboard while explaining his strategy to fight the Trool wrestlers.
184	* BigDamnHeroes:
185	** In episode 24, when Sadlygrove frees Evangelyne from Deserboss' TentacleRope.
186	** Ruel and his DrillTank in episode 25. [[spoiler:Though he manages to save Evangelyne, he's too late to save Sadlygrove.]]
187	** [[spoiler:Goultard the Barbarian]], in season 2 episode 24, shows up just as [[spoiler:Sadlygrove and Rubilax]] are about to be crushed by Rushu.
188	* TheBigDamnKiss: After 2 seasons, 3 special episodes, and 8 to 9 years of time chronologically of UnresolvedSexualTension, [[spoiler:Yugo and Amalia finally kiss in episode 7 of season 3.]] [[spoiler:Shame that Yugo's hangups about his physical age makes him say it was a mistake 5 minutes later.]]
189	* BigNo:
190	** Adamaï at the end of episode 16.
191	** Sadlygrove waking up in episode 22.
192	** Nox in the season 1 finale.
193	* BigShadowLittleCreature: Moon's entrance in episode 14.
194	* BigShutUp:
195	** Mandale the Bullies chieftain, twice in episode 5.
196	** King Sheran Sharm in episode 24, when both Amalia & Armand and Canar & Renate are bickering loudly at the same time.
197	** Remington Smisse, whenever his half-dozen Shushus get too chatty.
198	--->'''Remington:''' SILENCE, SHUSHUS! Can't hear myself killing, here!
199	** Rushu is fond of doing this to assert his authority.
200	** [[spoiler:Qilby]], usually in response to being called traitor, but especially when Yugo gives him the KirkSummation.
201	* {{Birdcaged}}: Elaine in episode 19 of season 2.
202	* BirthdayBeginning: The manga starts this way with a SurpriseParty for Yugo and Adamai's birthday. [[spoiler:Too bad it gets crashed.]]
203	* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Season 1 ends with Nox being defeated. However his life's ambition to see his family again proved fruitless and all the damage he inflicted along the way can't be undone]].
204	* {{Bizarrchitecture}}:
205	** Nox's Giant Clock Mecha is a mindbending clockwork nightmare, as much from the outside than from the inside.
206	** The cursed castle of the ugly princesses is quite weird too.
207	** Many of the decrepit buildings in Rubilaxia qualify, as well.
208	** Rushu's Castle in the Shushu World have all of them beaten, however.
209	* BizarreAndImprobableBallistics: Evangelyne's arrows, sometimes. Notably the homing frost arrow in episode 24.
210	* BizarreSexualDimorphism:
211	** Male Sadidas have their faces entirely covered in green hair (even the young ones); females are more human-looking.
212	** Male Srams are Skeletons. Female Srams [[spoiler:like Maude]] simply happen to wear a skeleton mask.
213	* BlankWhiteEyes:
214	** Sadlygrove in episode 22, after Rubilax triggered his BerserkButton by threatening Eva.
215	** This is pretty much the visual cue to possession, since it happens to anyone who loses control of themselves:
216	*** The mind-controlled Sadidas in episode 24.
217	*** [[spoiler:Amalia, who was "friendly"-possessed by the Tree of Life,]] in episode 25.
218	*** [[spoiler:Amalia and Ruel, when their shadows are stolen by Shadofang,]] in season 2 episodes 3 & 4.
219	*** [[spoiler:Sadlygrove, when his body was swapped with Rubilax's,]] in the first episodes of season 2.
220	* BlessedWithSuck:
221	** Sadlygrove's sword is the prison for a demon. While it makes it a potent weapon, it can in turn possess him if he lets his guard down.
222	** Qilby is practically the embodiment of this: [[spoiler:As one of the original six Eliatropes and their dragon siblings, Qilby is immortal. Unlike the other five, Qilby remembers ''all his past lives''. This might seem pretty useful, and probably was for a while, but after thousands of years, being unable to forget has driven him well and truly insane.]]
223	* BlindfoldedVision: Yugo in episode 21, but only temporarily.
224	* BlindMistake: This is the whole schtick of Chamberlain Thickdruft of the Sadidas. His eyes aren't visible under his hair, and he's old, so his eyesight is bad either way. He keeps confusing random people for Princess Amalia -- and then accuses said people of trying to trick him with disguises.
225	* BlingOfWar: The Justice Knight's armor and weapons are made out of gold.
226	* BlobMonster:
227	** The Dripples ("Flaqueux") in episode 5 are Blob People.
228	** An authentic Blob Monster appears in episode 7 from a broken potion flask.
229	** In the final of season 2, many Shushus fuse into a huge black Blob Monster covered in eyes, [[spoiler:which is subsequently [[DevourTheDragon absorbed by Rushu to increase his power]].]]
230	* BloodSport: Gobbowl
231	* ABloodyMess: In episode 13, to fit with the overall horror-spoof theme, Sadlygrove spreads red berry juice everywhere.
232	* BodyCountCompetition: [[spoiler:Sadlygrove and Rubilax]] have an impromptu one in season 2 episode 9. Problem is, [[spoiler:Sadlygrove can't count]].
233	* BondVillainStupidity: Rushu. Wanting to play games with the heroes [[spoiler:gives them a chance to escape, although Remington and Grany don't quite make it]].
234	* BoomerangComeback: Attempted by Yugo with his wakfu shield in season 2 episode 25, [[spoiler:but Qilby manages to parry it on the return.]]
235	* BornAgainImmortality: The Eliatrope council, without the memory retention. [[spoiler:Except for Qilby...]]
236	* BountyHunter: Alibert and Ruel's previous occupation. It's when Alibert decided to quit because he was too soft-hearted that Grougaloragran left baby Yugo in his care.
237	* BowelBreakingBricks: In "Bellaphones Island", Encre Noire the octopus captain squirts a puddle of ink underneath him twice, the second time at the sight of a tidal wave about to engulf his ship.
238	* ABoyAGirlAndABabyFamily: The Percedal family, from the episode "Oropo" in season 3 on.
239	* BreakTheCutie:
240	** Oh Crâ, episode 19. [[spoiler:Sadlygrove, possessed by Rubilax, proceeds to crush both forearm and bow of {{Love Interest\|s}} Evangelyne in one grasp. The tears of physical and emotional pain she show afterwards are enough to cause a MyGodWhatHaveIDone moment in Sadlygrove, who is arguably also made a broken cutie.]]
241	** And again in episode 25. [[spoiler:Eva just can't catch a break.]]
242	** She was ''this close'' to being even more broken when [[spoiler:Amalia became a tree]]. It was averted that time, thank Crâ, but poor Eva seems like a CosmicPlaything...
243	* BreathWeapon:
244	** Grougaloragran has an extremely versatile and powerful fire breath that he uses liberally in either dragon or humanoid form.
245	** Adamaï can also do it, though with far less power.
246	** And Phaeris, of course, as Anathar can attest from direct experience.
247	* BrickJoke: The ending credits sequence of season 2's episode 8 features the same tied-up bandits from the previous episode.
248	* BridalCarry:
249	** Sadlygrove with Evangelyne, shortly on their first encounter, then [[spoiler:inside Eva's dream]] in episode 20, and in episode 24 [[spoiler:after he saves her from Deserboss]].
250	** In season 2, Sadlygrove with Cleophelia on their first encounter, saving her from the Trool wrestlers.
251	* BridgeBunnies: On board of the Sufokian capital ship.
252	* BringIt: Sadlygrove to the Sadida warriors in episode 19.
253	* BrokenPedestal: Yugo is initially in awe of the Justice Knights, but once he finds out how callous and hypocritical they are, and that even career criminals like Remington Smisse are capable of noble acts, he isn't quite as taken with them as he once was.
254	* BubblePipe: Shanon Stone owns one with a cigarette-holder look.
255	* BulletTime:
256	** Ruel dodging [=McDeek=]'s energy blast in season 1 episode 9.
257	** About any important action in the Brâkmarian Gobbowl match, thanks to Slo-Mo the Xelor referee.
258	* BurningRubber: The Mmmmmmmmmporpg leaves a trail of fire behind him whenever he uses his SuperSpeed.
259	* BusmansVocabulary: Quite frequent.
260	** Amalia uses metaphors and expressions based on plants all the time. Later episodes show us that most [[PlantPeople Sadidas]] do this.
261	** Likewise, Ruel's speech often alludes to money or wealth (and shovels).
262	** Minor characters are also on it; Xav the Baker and his father Ratafouine are constantly referencing bread and baking.
263	** Even Nox isn't above making regular clocks or time-related quips.
264	* TheButcher: Bourlof ("le dépeceur" in the original French).
265	* ButtBiter: During "Le Rush" in Rushu's world, Sadlygrove is bitten in the butt by one of the 666 minor Shushus the heroes are fighting.
266	* ByTheLightsOfTheirEyes: [[spoiler:Rubilax and Grany]]'s eyes are still visible from inside Anathar's belly.
267	* CableCarActionSequence: The air pirates attacking the gondola transporting the heroes in season 2 episode 7.
268	* CallARabbitASmeerp: Piwis (birds), Tofu (other birds), Gobballs (sheep), Bow-meows (cats), Wabbits (rabbits)...
269	* CallBack:
270	** Several Call Backs in season 2 episodes 2-3 to season 1 episode 6, with the return of Vampyro's castle and his ghouls.
271	** Season 1 episode 9: "I don't like clicks..." Season 2 episode 5: "I really don't like clicks..."
272	** Season 2 episode 18: "Another of that thing? We're gonna end up in our undies again."
273	* {{Calvinball}}: Gobbowl. It seems pretty straightforward at first... but rules get thrown out the window about halfway through. In Bonta, a totem pole rises out of the ground and inflicts some effect [[AudienceParticipation chosen by the audience]] on the field, just for fun. And in Gobbowl, cheating is part of the sport.
274	* TheCameo: Tons and tons. We can split them up in to types:
275	** Internal cameos, which show characters from previous (or future) episodes out of context.
276	*** For example, you can see two of the princesses from episode 4 in the crowd in episode 10.
277	*** Goultard's mother is in the background in episode 3, heaving a heavy basket exactly like her initial appearance in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfpQV8-68XM a previous Ankama short film]].
278	*** [[spoiler:Ogrest, the monster that started the troubled age of ''Wakfu'' all by himself,]] makes a brief appearance in episode 26. You'd have to know the universe's backstory to understand what he's doing there, or even ''who'' he is, since it's not explained in the episode.
279	** External cameos, which display some of the author's tastes in anime and series. Frequently in the background or in a crowd.
280	*** Manga/{{Naruto}}
281	*** [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} Fry and Bender]]
282	*** [[Anime/UFORoboGrendizer Goldorak]]
283	*** [[Manga/DragonBall Kuririn and Master Roshi]]
284	*** [[Franchise/StreetFighter Akuma]]
285	*** [[Manga/OnePiece Monkey D. Luffy]]
286	*** [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Ichigo Kurosaki]]
287	*** [[Manga/RanmaOneHalf Ranma Saotome (female)]]
288	* CameraAbuse: Ankama seems to like this way of PaintingTheMedium.
289	** Jactance fogging the "camera lens" in season 1 episode 12.
290	** Season 2 episode 2 also has raindrops or mud visibly splashing the "lens".
291	** And in season 2 episode 7, the "camera" is broken by a cannon projectile!
292	** During the credit roll for season 2 episode 14, Amalia ''tries'' to sing the show's theme song and [[GlassShatteringSound shatters the camera lens on the last note]].
293	* CampGay: Canar and Renate don't even ''try'' to be subtle about it. Renate himself is named after the ''fabulous'' Renato from the film/musical ''Theatre/LaCageAuxFolles''.
294	* CannotKillTheirLovedOnes: In the end, [[Characters/WakfuBrotherhoodOfTheForgotten Oropo]] has an Omni-Man style downfall. He's willing to destroy an entire dimension along with all its inhabitants in the name of his cause, and [[spoiler:he's engineered at least two major turning points in the World of Twelve's history that had truly ''apocalyptic'' ramifications with full knowledge of what would happen]], but once [[spoiler:members of his own Brotherhood]] whom he genuinely bonded with are directly put in harm's way by the culmination of his EvilPlan, he gradually realizes [[spoiler:their lives aren't a price he can pay for the realization of his goals and he gives up]].
295	* CantLiveWithoutYou: The Tree of Life holds the lifeforce of the whole Sadida people. [[spoiler:Which means that when it is drained of all wakfu in episode 26, everyone of them turn into inert stumps, including Amalia.]]
296	* TheCape: Justice Knight
297	* CaptainMorganPose:
298	** Sadlygrove after becoming Wabbit king in episode 15 of season 2.
299	** Elaine and Encre Noire in their comic spin-off.
300	* [[CapturedByCannibals Captured by Kaniboules]]: Season 1 episode 14.
301	* CardCarryingVillain: Rushu, and most of the Shushus. [[spoiler:Rubilax ''used'' to be this, but he got over it through a combination of realizing that BeingEvilSucks, that he actually did care about his human companions, and that his inability to fully commit to being cruel and villainous got him absolutely no respect from the other Shushus so he might as well stick with the people who actually do.]]
302	* CarpetOfVirility: [[spoiler:Male Evangelyne and Amalia]] from the Brâkmarian Gobbowl arc.
303	* CatapultNightmare:
304	** Poor Sadlygrove has one at the beginning of episode 22.
305	** Adamaï also has one in episode 24, after receiving a dream warning from the Tree of Life.
306	* CatchPhrase:
307	-->'''Yugo:''' Cool!
308	* CatFolk: Ecaflips are a cat-like race.
309	* CaughtInASnare: The net version in episode 5 -- self-inflicted on Amalia and Evangelyne.
310	* CaughtTheHeartOnHisSleeve: Eva does a variation of this in episode 25 with Sadlygrove's ScarfOfAsskicking.
311	* CensorSteam: The ShowerScene in episode 22.
312	* CerebusSyndrome: The show starts off as very fun and colourful, and even the tragic BreakTheCutie moment in episode 19 is created by somewhat silly circumstances (namely [[spoiler:Sadlygrove insulting Armand's halitosis, and Armand spanking him repeatedly with a vine whip]]). But once you hit episode 24, Ankama takes all of your silly expectations of an innocent Saturday-morning kid's cartoon and utterly shatters them by delivering the darkest, most tense, and most heart-breaking season finale French animation has ever seen.
313	* ChainedByFashion: Anathar, after escaping from the Justice Knight's prison, keeps the enormous manacles and chains around his huge wrists.
314	* ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction: Just before the Bontarian Gobbowl match, at the doors of the stadium, Ruel's team players get outfitted -- which is okay since the gear is mostly put above their regular clothes. But Amalia and Eva also get to change into cheerleader outfits at the same time, while in the previous scene they were [[LimitedWardrobe dressed as usual]]. [[FridgeLogic When (and where) did they do that?]]
315	* CheekyMouth
316	* ChestInsignia: "J" for the Justice Knight.
317	* ClickHello:
318	** Remington does this to Evangelyne in season 2 episode 2.
319	** Also happens to Amalia in episode 24 of season 2.
320	* {{Cliffhanger}}: An infamous one at the end of episode 15, which acted as a mid-season break while Ankama and France 3 worked on finishing future episodes and scheduling. Not knowing what would happen to the heroes who were [[spoiler:caught in dragon's breath]], and knowing that the answer was only going to come ''six or seven months'' later was quite annoying.
321	* ClockPunk: Not applicable to the whole setting, but frequent examples show up.
322	** Nox's creations are all based on intricate clockwork design, from his GiantMecha Watch, to his {{Clockwork Creature}}s like Razortime.
323	** The cable-car manned by Ruel's grandmother.
324	** The home base of the Justice Knight and his Justice Train.
325	** Some Eliatrope design, like the interior of the ''Zinit'', also evokes this trope.
326	* ClockworkCreature:
327	** The Noxines;
328	** Razortime;
329	** The Eliacube shortly takes the form of a clockwork owl for easy transportation.
330	** There's also the clockwork owls that Count Harebourg briefly uses against Yugo.
331	* CloseCallHaircut: Done with the hair on Yugo's hat during his fight with Nox.
332	* ClothingDamage:
333	** Grougaloragran's humanoid form during the fight against Nox's puppets.
334	** Nox's armor takes quite a beating in the same episode, revealing his Xelor wrappings.
335	** Yugo during the season 2 finale, though mostly due to an awesome burst of power. By the time he's done with Qilby, he's only wearing his pants- having ''finally'' revealed what was under that hat.
336	** Qilby's is also pretty torn up by the end of season two.
337	* CollapsingLair:
338	** [[spoiler:Nox's clock]] in the final episode of season 1.
339	** [[spoiler:Rubilaxia]] in season 2 episode 4.
340	* ColorCharacter: The Black Raven
341	* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: Wakfu glows in different ranges of turquoise while Stasis glows in ranges of purple.
342	* ColossusClimb: Sadlygrove has to do this to fight Rushu's giant form.
343	* CombatCommentator: The brothers Jactance (the Bontarian) and Tendinite (the Brâkmarian).
344	* CombatSadomasochist: The Sacrier class, including Kriss Krass.
345	* CombatTentacles:
346	** Grougaloragran as a GiantSquid makes heavy use of them.
347	** Anathar can conjure pitch-black tentacles directly from Rushu's dimension through portals. They're agressive enough that they even seize their summoner if he gets too close.
348	** [[spoiler:Rushu's true form]] also sports some.
349	* ComicallyMissingThePoint:
350	** In episode 1, while Rubilax destroys Alibert's inn.
351	--->'''Yugo:''' Dad, customers are leaving without having paid.
352	** In episode 4 with the volcano inside the castle.
353	--->'''Yugo:''' What is a volcano doing here?\
354	'''Amalia:''' Well, they have to warm this huge place somehow.
355	** In episode 13, Eva is kidnapped in front of Yugo and Amalia, and Amalia becomes completely upset because Eva's hair is messy.
356	* ComicBookAdaptation:
357	** A continuation of the cartoon following Season 2; [[{{Animesque}} fittingly]] in a format typical for {{Manga}}.
358	** Also the ''WAKFU Heroes'' series of graphic novels featuring minor characters from the show: ''Le Corbeau Noir'' (Kabrok & Miranda), ''Percimol'' (the Dripple hero), ''Remington Arc 1'' and ''2'' (Remington & Grany), ''Maskemane'' and ''Tangomango'' (Elaine & Encre Noire).
359	* CompanionCube: The Eliacube, which is regarded as sentient by Nox. Whether it really is or not has been left unclear.
360	* ConsultingMisterPuppet: Sybannak talking to a small rock.
361	* ContemplativeBoss: Nox at the end of episode 24.
362	* ContinuityCameo: Despite being placed a thousand years later, the series continuously makes references to the original ''VideoGame/{{Dofus}}'' game and universe.
363	** The most obvious example would be the animated trees in episode 2: the episode references a story from one of the ''Dofus'' comics, ''Le Chêne Mou''.
364	** [[spoiler:Goultard]], a major character of the ''VideoGame/{{Dofus}}'' comic, makes an appearance in episode 22 and at the end of season 2.
365	** [[spoiler:Ogrest]], an important background character of the ''Wakfu'' game, makes a brief appearance in episode 26.
366	** ''Wakfu'' is also big on cross-media. Most places from the series can be found in the SpinOff MMORPG, ''The Guardians''.
367	* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: [[BigBadDuumvirate Both of]] Season 2's antagonists:
368	** As opposed to the AntiVillain Nox was, Rushu is [[CardCarryingVillain more upfront about how evil he is]], [[LargeHam less quiet]], and is only motivated by [[OmnicidalManiac a desire to destroy]].
369	** [[spoiler:Qilby]] has a similar motivation to Rushu, but on a more galactic scale, prefers not to get his hands dirty unless he has to, prefers to manipulate others into his bidding, operates solo for the most part, and knows more about how the Eliacube works, whereas Nox only barely understood it.
370	* ConvectionSchmonvection: Brâkmar is built on volcanic ground, with lava rivers flowing below several parts of the town, which should make the whole city too hot to be liveable. The Gobbowl Stadium itself is above a lava lake.
371	* ConvertedIntoAWeapon: [[OurDemonsAreDifferent The Shushus]] are locked inside weapons and other usable items. They are still sentient and mostly have one animated eye that can communicate with the outside world. If the wielder is too [[WeakWilled weak-minded]], the Shushu will [[BodySnatcher take over their body]]. [[TheHero Sadlygrove]] has a Shushu sword with whom he has a [[VitriolicBestBuds special kind of relationship]].
372	* CoolTrain: Property of the Justice Knight.
373	* CosmopolitanCouncil: The Council of the Twelve, which consists out of the leaders and nobles of the twelve races. [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg And the Prince of Brâkmar.]]
374	* CouchGag: Yugo flies towards the episode's antagonist at the end of each TitleSequence of season 1. For episodes not centered on Yugo, it's Sadlygrove who jumps towards the antagonist.
375	* CoupDeGrace: Narrowly averted in episode 26; [[spoiler:Yugo wanted to finish off Nox but was distracted by Ogrest's roar]].
376	* CoveredInGunge: The Dragoturkey dung bath in episode 4 of season 1.
377	* CrazyPrepared: Pandiego de la Vega in episode 13 of season 2.
378	* CreativeClosingCredits: The credits of each episode have a small scene acted out by a character or characters from that episode alongside them. The first four episodes are simply the main characters [[BreakingTheFourthWall introducing themselves]], but the following episodes all have little skits attached.
379	* CreepySouvenir: [[spoiler:Qilby's collection of various animals from all the planets the Eliatropes harvested.]]
380	* CrossingTheDesert:
381	** Yugo in episode 21 of season 1.
382	** Sadlygrove in episode 22 of season 1.
383	* CruelMercy: Amalia does this to Ruel in the first episode of Season 2. After realizing it was him that was causing all of the critters from underground to terrorize the Sadida people in his search for gold, she decides to not throw him in jail in exchange for all of the gold he found since it rightfully belongs to the Sadida people. Ruel pleads to have his head cut off instead, but she doesn't listen.
384	* {{Cult}}: The Cult of Ogrest.
385	* CuteClumsyGirl: Evangelyne in high heels, in episode 4. [[spoiler:Which gives you a hint that it's not really her when she's dancing in heels]] at the beginning of episode 22.
386	* CuteLittleFangs: Amalia; Evangelyne; Sadlygrove; Yugo...
387	* CyberCyclops: The Noxines; Razortime
388	* {{Cyclops}}: [[spoiler:Rushu's]] real form.
389	* CypherLanguage:
390	** Draconic runes are a cypher for French; the code is in the series' art book.
391	** The Brâkmarien alphabet.
