* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: In a later episode, there was a mention of the circumcision. It comes off without controversy in places familiar with this practice and the fact that it's essential for growing boys but might startle some foreign audiences. The origin of its mention is due to Mail having one and almost tells how it works. Miss Jasmin came in the right time...

''Upin & Ipin'' (known as ''Upin dan Ipin'' in their own language) is a Malaysian AllCGICartoon. A television series of animated shorts produced by Les' Copaque Production. It follows the [[SliceOfLife life and adventures]] of the titular twin protagonists, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Upin & Ipin]]. Along with their friends, they learn lessons and the importance of values though it's actually a little more than that if you are familiar with Malaysian customs and culture, the latter which has been almost the main theme that makes the show itself, quite familiar in their home country but a distinct feel to foreigners who are unaware with the traditions thereof.

!!The following tropes include:
* AlwaysIdenticalTwins
* BigSisterBully: Kak Ros but only if needed. Should her brothers do something wrong, she won't think twice by disciplining them with her own hands. Toned down in later seasons but still comes off as the big sister her brothers like to play around with and often reacts angrily towards them.
** BigSisterInstinct: She's a great sister who, despite the above trope, cares for their well-being and she makes sure to lead them to the right that needs to be done.
* CampGay: Salleh/Sally.
* CoolOldGuy: The village chief, Tok Dalang. He had done a lot of awesome things in his early years, much to the village children's astonishment.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: In a later episode, there was a mention of the circumcision. It comes off without controversy in places familiar with this practice and the fact that it's essential for growing boys but might startle some foreign audiences.
* HonestJohn[=/=]YoungEntrepreneur: Mail. Almost half the things that run in his mind are money and the instinct to sell something.
* TheMovie: ''Geng: The Adventure Begins''
* SliceOfLife
* SpoiledSweet: Mei-Mei. In school, she is shown to be a very smart and very helpful girl, though some of her male classmates find her insufferable, accusing her of being a class kiss-up (intentional or not, there's a bit of justifying evidence). But she's still very nice to everybody. Her only not-so-worst enemy might be [[HonestJohn Mail]].
* ThemeTwinNaming
* ThinkTwins: They might as well be the representation of the "two heads are better than one" saying. They are inseparable and they usually rely on each other and most of their ideas are created together.
* TricksterTwins: No need to guess who. Usually, they are harmless tricks and the twins are good at heart.
