* ArchiveBinge: Over '''33 megs of text''' dating from 1992.
* ArchivePanic: Over '''33 megs of text''' dating from 1992 is quite a lot to absorb.
* DracoInLeatherPants: Because some characters are [[RuleOfCool too cool]] to be {{Card Carrying Villain}}s.
* HoYay: Gryphon and Zoner. A lot. For years. To the point where Zoner (the writer, not the character) was surprised at just how much slashfic there was about the pair of them
* {{Narm}}: ''Justice and Mercy'' has the WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}} show up. Not as an in-joke or for a comedic set-piece, but as ''characters'' played ''completely straight''. (In this universe they're half-aliens.) ''Justice and Mercy'' isn't that good a story to begin with (what it does to several of the female characters is best left undiscussed), but this is the point where it becomes ridiculous.
* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: As one fan once said, "''UF is where characters go to become awesome again after their original writers forget how to treat them right.''" This is a significant reason for the existence of the Legacy of Korra arc in Future Imperfect. If Gryphon's episode commentary in the Eyrie forums is any indicator, he felt the need to try to get ''the show itself'' out of the heap.
* UnexpectedCharacter: In ''Friends Like These'', Kaban, Serval and Brown Rat are confronted by a giant robot. This is the ''expected'' character... The unexpected one? Only a Friend based on '''''{{Franchise/Godzilla}}'''''.
** What makes this even more epic? ''Shingoji-chan's a real Friend'', in as much as she was created for a Kemono Friends collaborative work.
* {{Wangst}}: The main weakness of the early Core stories, especially Kei and Yuri's disappearance in ''[=UF1=]'', most of the plot of ''[=UF2=]: The Long Road'' that resulted in the entire cast becoming immortal, and the downfall of the WDF in ''[=UF3=]: Out in the Cold''.
