* AccidentalAesop: Do not hinge everything on just one person or method. Lackadaisy's poor present status came about from Atlas May having all the clout and influence rather than dividing it up among his inner circle. Not only that, he also didn't spread out to other forms of criminal activity like prostitution and gambling, which became major replacement sources of income for the mafia after Prohibition in real life. So when he died, his empire toppled practically overnight with no other sources of illegal income for the ones who stayed.

* MagnificentBastard: [[FromNobodyToNightmare Atlas May]] was the founder of the titular Lackadaisy Speakeasy. Originally just a coffee shop owner, Atlas took advantage of prohibition and a hidden limestone network beneath his cafe to establish a speakeasy, making sure to vet which patrons could be trusted by having them wear a club pin. Atlas recruited Viktor after seeing his fighting style by paying a lawyer to shorten his jail time and honed Mordecai's antisocial nature and analytical skills to make him a proper hitman, before pairing the two up. After teaming up with the Arbogasts due to their location near a railway and having a wine shipment from them be hijacked by Sicilians fighting the Marigold, Atlas sicked Mordecai and Viktor on them to secure an alliance with Marigold, steal their cars, and take back the liquor. Atlas then took a woman named Mary Ellen in, knowing her band would come with her, and [[TheCorrupter turning her and Viktor more towards the criminal lifestyle to make sure they'd stick with him]]. Enlarging his empire together for years before his death, Atlas was [[BenevolentBoss remembered well by his employees]] and lived up to his name as the man who held the Lackadaisy together.

** [[TheHeavy Mordecai Heller]] is Marigold's chief enforcer, and their smartest. Having started as a common criminal, Mordecai joined the Lackadaisy Speakeasy and became Atlas' top enforcer afterwards, demonstrating quick thinking in his fights.

* FandomRivalry: After the release of the pilot, one began brewing with ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' and by extension ''WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss''. All three shows are indie animated series that feature anthro characters and dark comedy, and this is an interesting example given how the [[FriendlyFandoms two fandoms were almost 100% on friendly terms]] prior to the pilot. Currently, the relationship between the two is...''[[{{Pun}} rocky]],'' both for the usual reasons arising when people prefer one thing to another and other more complicated factors involving their studios and creators. This has caused no small amount of headaches for the fans who enjoy ''both'' shows equally and want all this drama to stop.

** The Savoy siblings are a pretty good candidates. From Serafine being a beautiful lady who looks amazing in pantsuits and various Voodoo lady outfits, to Nicodeme meanwhile being the ruggedly handsome and muscular type, a TallDarkAndHandsome boxer with a broad body, a gruff yet playful voice and almost always having a smug playful grin on his face.
** Mordecai, too, has a large sex appeal with the fans because of his sharply dressed, handsome, and too-serious manner. As of the release of the animated pilot, Creator/SungWonCho's silky smooth performance is basically assured to escalate things to unprecedented levels.
