* IKnewIt:
** In Chapter 3, enough hints were dropped in the story that several readers figured out the exact nature of [[spoiler:Rosemaster's [[LaserGuidedAmnesia memory manipulation]]]] before it was explained in the story itself. Consequently, the true identities of [[spoiler:King Aster, King Sunflower, and Princess Azalea]] were deduced some time before TheReveal.
** Also relating to Chapter 3, [[spoiler:Saturday]] being the missing Flower Kingdom princess was once a common theory, but mostly forgotten after [[spoiler:Azalea]]'s introduction... which is likely how the reveal that [[spoiler:Saturday ''is'' Azalea]] went all but unnoticed.

** Some fans are shipping Noisemaster with [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} Mettaton]], due to their similar personality and {{Leitmotif}}.[[note]]Music/TobyFox, creator of ''Undertale'', made [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPT_YvaM7vc a theme]] for Noisemaster, which he would later reuse to make [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0PpyUsvT9w Mettaton's theme.]][[/note]]

"Idiot Plot" is now Flame Bait.


* IdiotPlot:
** Played with. There are several points in the story so far where a more logical and reasonable choice could have saved everyone a lot of trouble, but they never do it because it's simply [[FunctionalGenreSavvy not how these things work]]. It usually runs on RuleOfFunny.
** The entire plot kick starts because the people in charge of hiding the PlotCoupons are really, ''really'' bad at it.
** Perfectly summed up here:
---> '''The Oracle:''' I don't have time to spend interrogating every "Legendary Hero" who walks in here!\\
'''Cucumber:''' But--But that's just stupid!

Unfortunate Implications is now flame bait; consequently, examples of it can no longer be listed on YMMV pages.


* UnfortunateImplications: Rosemaster, who is openly a trans woman, has powers [[spoiler: based on deceiving and manipulating people]] and is very unambiguously villainous. This seems to have been accidental; [[https://twitter.com/gigideegee/status/621131629059125248 Gigi was horrified]] when a fan pointed this out to them and they immediately apologized (ironically, Gigi themself would later come out as nonbinary).

* RelationshipWritingFumble: [[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-525/ These]] [[http://cucumber.gigidigi.com/cq/page-530/ pages]] led some people to read a romantic subtext between Rosemaster and the Nightmare Knight. Gigi had to tweet a reminder that he was "technically her dad". For this reason, the print version changes one of Rosemaster's lines to say "birthday" instead of "wedding".

** Fans are divided on Almond; she receives the lion's share of the focus over the ostensible protagonist Cucumber, while being hypercompetent and even her mistakes turn out for the best. Some find her a boring character because of this, while others argue that part of the story is subverting conventional hero roles and she's fulfilling Cucumber's role as the legendary hero. For her part, Gigi considers Almond and Cucumber both the main protagonists, but some still point out that Cucumber still hasn't had much opportunity to step outside of other people's shadows.

* FanNickname: Sir Carrot (after his armor transformation) is often referred to as Hot Carrot or Bishie Carrot. Even Gigi (jokingly) calls him such in her Twitter comments.

that's not right either


* FanPreferredCouple: A funny example when it came to shipping Almond and Peridot, most were not vocal and those that were, were quick to call it weird. It wasn't until [[WordOfGod Gigi herself]] said it was okay, that people began to loudly squee over the ship. It can mostly be accounted to the age of the two.
