* StudioHop:
** The first season's episodes were produced by Amedia Visual Effects before the production was fully moved to Creator/AnimaccordAnimationStudio.
** The Season 1 episode ''One, Two, Three! Light the Christmas Tree!'' was animated by Aeroplane Productions (creators of ''The Fixies'') instead of Creator/AnimaccordAnimationStudio.

* DontGoInTheWoods: When the Bear is trying to get rid of Masha in the first episode and it seems like she's far enough deep in the forest, night suddenly falls and the Bear changes his mind, thinking that she might now be endangered.

** Episode 58 is one big shout-out to ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'', at the same time doubling as [[TakeThat a jab]] towards ''What is Good'' website, which is notorious enough you can read about it on Website/ThisVeryWiki over at the MoralGuardian page. (See, ''What is Good'' '''loves''' comparing ''Masha'' with ''Tom and Jerry'', citing both as examples of mindless violence in cartoons.)

** At one point, Masha grows planet-size and her head hits the Moon, as if it was just a ceiling decoration.

* ConscienceMakesYouGoBack: In the first episode, the Bear gets rid of Masha by dumping her deep enough in the forest and seemingly is fine with it... until night falls. He then realizes she will likely be endangered alone in the dark forest and goes back to search for her in vain... then it's revealed she made her way back to his house, much to his relief.

* WatchOutForThatTree: In the first episode, after transporting Masha deep enough (or so he thinks) into the forest with his bicycle, the Bear celebrates getting rid of her while he's driving away without looking in front of him... and crashes into a tree.

* ScaryStingingSwarm: In the first episode, Masha is chased by a swarm of bees that she unleashed when she crashed into the Bear's behives.

* WeirdMoon: The Moon is literally crescent-shaped and covered in yellow sand, some of it being {{quicksand|Sucks}}s... about the most realistic thing about the Moon in Masha's universe is that there's an abandoned ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunokhod_1 Lunokhod]]'' on it just like in RealLife.
