** ComicBook/RedSkull has different motivations than usual, but as usual is still a monstrous, twisted maniac. Unlike most incarnations, who are obsessed with power and conquest, this Skull sticks out for being an [[CardCarryingVillain evil-loving]] sadist who wants nothing more than to prove, once and for all, that depravity can win over goodness. With this mindset, Skull [[BadBoss betrays his own allies]] and regularly tries to break the Avengers' spirits, all leading up to his master plan of blowing up the entire Earth in a suicidal mockery of all heroism and justice. Even when this is foiled, Skull continues to grow in wickedness by tricking the teen Hikaru into [[WouldHurtAChild painfully erasing his own free will and compassion]], before using the boy's declining life force as he catalyst to force the Avengers to fight to the death. After the Avengers outsmart him then demand he save Hikaru, Skull gleefully reveals that he knows of no cure, and used the prospect of one [[KickTheDog solely to see the sadness in their eyes when they learned the truth]].

* ClicheStorm: Other than the inclusion of Creator/MarvelComics characters, the series follows many common tropes from other MerchandiseDriven {{Mon}} anime series, with a main lead who feels very similar in appearence (and personality) to [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} Ash Ketchum]] or [[Anime/{{Beyblade}} Tyson Granger]].

** Noriko Ashida, aka "Surge", one of the [[ComicBook/NewMutants newer members]] of the X-Men, later shows up after the group moves to Japan. Much like the use of Armor in the [[Anime/XMen X-Men anime]], she was probably chosen because the character herself is Japanese.

* SoBadItsGood: Many Marvel fans would have find the anime been less enjoyable if it wasn't for the presence of ''ComicBook/{{Deadpool}},'' who [[SelfDeprecation constantly pokes fun on the anime production team]] on noting how bad the anime is, and being voiced by fan favorite veteran seiyuu Creator/TakehitoKoyasu.

** ComicBook/{{Loki}}, The God of Mischief, is the BigBad of the series, and the most personal villain the Avengers ever duel. After a failed coup against his father Odin and [[DrivenByEnvy half-brother Thor for the throne of Asgard]], Loki organized a supervillain rampage on an entire city to serve as a distraction while he trapped much of the world's superpowered population inside [=DISKs=], small devices that Loki plans to use to absorb the abilities of all these individuals to make himself all-powerful. To reclaim these [=DISKs=] after they are scattered, Loki regularly has his minions cause chaos and destruction in their quest for the [=DISKs=], notably [[BrainwashedAndCrazy mind-controlling Hulk into destroying an entire city]]. Though seemingly defeated, Loki is revealed to have survived by making a deal with the lord of the Dark Dimension, Dormammu, promising to offer Earth to him in exchange for being allowed to rule over the tortured souls that will be left after Dormammu lays waste to the planet. As a backstabbing betrayer, Loki plays sympathetic to leave his enemies, often his brother, open to attack, smugly mocks his most loyal henchmen for trusting him [[BadBoss when he leaves them to die]], and [[TheStarscream even turns on Dormammu himself]], absorbing his powers into himself and making one last attempt to kill everyone who would stand against him before moving on to dominate the entire universe.

** The people who love it tend to cite that it's a lot better than the [[WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderman current]] [[WesternAnimation/HulkAndTheAgentsOfSMASH Western]] [[WesternAnimation/AvengersAssemble cartoons]] which have all gained a notoriety for being some of Marvel's most contested animated series to date.
** Others dislike it for reducing The Avengers to a {{Mons}} style merchandising series. People counter this by stating that the series still focuses on them a great deal as characters rather than simply reduce them to being "toys".

** Doubles as a case of TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot. Though Bucky is mentioned in most of Cap/Chris's story arcs, this is probably the only media to feature Cap in recent times to not show that [[spoiler: Bucky survived and was brainwashed into becoming Winter Soldier]] especially after the success of ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier''. Unknown how they could've fit it into the story, but it would've been interesting to see, along with [[spoiler: Bucky possibly becoming a Fight Class hero]] as well.
