12	----
13	!!''Freddy Fazbear and Friends'' provides examples of:
14
15	* AbortedArc: This is what happens to Bonnie after "Bonnie's Birthday Surprise", when [[spoiler: Chica ruins the arc by slamming the cake in the bunny's face, which in turn causes him to grow cold-hearted again, some people consider this [[TheyWastedaPerfectlyGoodPlot wasted potential.]]]]
16	* AdaptationalNationality: An InUniverse example. Each version of Foxy has a different accent, Classic Foxy has an American English accent, Withered Foxy has a British accent, and Phantom Foxy has a Scottish accent.
17	* AdaptationalHeroism: Many characters from the series are nicer than their scary canonical counterparts.
18	* AdaptationalVillainy: [[AdaptationalHeroism With that said however,]] some characters are far worse and [[AdaptationalJerkass far meaner]] than in canon.
19	* AllJustaDream: "Bonnie's Christmas Carol" is revealed to be a dream as a result of Bonnie being injured.
20	* AnArmAndALeg: In "Freddy's Knee Troubles", Freddy had to go a week walking with just one leg after damaging it.
21	* ArtEvolution: The models changed throughout the series while it was being animated in SFM.
22	* ArtShift: In the Scary Stories episodes, the art style switches between SFM and Plushies.
23	* BerserkButton: Never break Bonnie's guitar.
24	* BigEater: Withered Freddy. That's it. Withered Freddy.
25	* BirthdayEpisode: Bonnie and Chica's episodes ultimately become [[ABirthdayNotaBreak A Birthday, Not a Break]]
26	** Chica has one in "Chica's Birthday Disaster".
27	** Bonnie has two, both in "Bonnie's Birthday Surprise" and "Birthday Coincidence".
28	** Circus Baby has one in "Birthday Coincidence".
29	* BlackComedy: Despite appealing to younger audiences, cocaine and ipecac have made it's way into the show before.
30	** This is especially seen in "Exotic Rush", as Funtime Freddy and Bon Bon take [[GRatedDrug Exotic Butters]] (after [[DontTouchItYouIdiot Ennard told them not to]]) and ingest them, only to experience hallucinations, implying the butter had a drug of some sort in them.
31	*** This creates a [[PlotHole plot hole]], however, as in "Theodore", exotic butters were shown to be consumable.
32	* CrossReferencedTitles: The season 1 episode "Chica Runs Away" and the season 5 episode "Bonnie Runs Away" both revolve around a character running away.
33	* DarkIsNotEvil: Nightmare Bonnie is the prime example of this, as he comes from a species of pure evil, which after he redeems himself, still leads him to believe he isn't worthy of love, [[StoryArc this becoming an arc until "Nightmare Unwrapped".]]
34	* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The series was originally animated using Source Filmmaker. Starting with "The Nature Walk" the series is done using plushies. It later changed back to SFM as mentioned below.
35	* EverybodysDeadDave: This is seen once in "Fazbear Lottery", as [[spoiler: the Fazbear Gang (except [[SoleSurvivor Freddy]]) is killed off [[StuffBlowingUp via an explosion.]]]]
36	* ExperiencedProtagonist: Golden Freddy, Springtrap, and Puppet.
37	* FiveManBand: The main characters, [[TheLeader Freddy]], [[TheLancer Bonnie]], [[TheHeart Chica]], [[TheBigGuy Foxy]], and [[TheSmartGuy Golden Freddy]].
38	** Ultimately [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] with Chica, who in later episodes, becomes farther from The Heart and becomes more of an Anti-Hero.
39	* HairTriggerTemper: Both Freddy and Foxy share this trope, Foxy to a much lesser extent.
40	* HalloweenEpisode: The three Scary Stories episodes.
41	* INeedAFreakingDrink: Foxy is shown to have this issue in the series with beer, with it becoming a [[DrowningMySorrows huge problem in later seasons]], as seen in the episodes "Foxy's Roommate" and "Foxy Gets Busted"
42	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: The main trio can be rude and harsh at times even to each other but they’re still good robots deep down.
43	* LaterInstallmentWeirdness: Starting with "Chica's Gaming Channel" the series reverts to permanently being animated with SFM.
44	* RippedFromTheHeadlines: The season 6 episode "Gone Fishing" coincides with Freddy Fazbear's Pizza being closed due to UsefulNotes/COVID19.
45	* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Bonnie does this several times throughout the series, such as in "Double Trouble", or "The Box".
46	* TokenHeroicOrc: Nightmare Bonnie is the only Nightmare to pull a HeelFaceTurn.
47	* TripToTheMoonPlot: Since the first episode is titled "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysonTheTin Trip to the Moon]]".
48	* VocalEvolution: Many of the characters' voices have gotten significantly deeper since the start of the show, due to Andrew hitting puberty. Comparing the voice of early season animatronics to that of the late season is like comparing night and day.
49	* WholeEpisodeFlashback: "Bonnie Runs Away" and "Chica's Anniversary" serve as this, with the former being after a Season 1 Episode and the latter being before the series itself.
50	* YetAnotherChristmasCarol: Season 1 has "Bonnie's Christmas Carol".
