* RecursiveAdaptation: The ''VideoGame/{{Dofus}}'' MMORPG was the basis for the ''Wakfu'' MMORPG on which the ''Wakfu'' series is based on, and later on we got WesternAnimation/DofusTheTreasuresOfKerubim, which is a LighterAndSofter prequel to Wakfu, even though the original Dofus game came first. On top of that, we also have a side story game, VideoGame/IslandsOfWakfu.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: The series has been aired somewhat erratically on the French television network, France 3, including more rediffusion than usual, changing time slots, and gaps of several months between new episodes (the last one being a two-and-a-half-month pause before the ''final three episodes''). Viewers were not happy.

* MissingEpisode: The artbook ''"Dofus - Les mains d'Eniripsa"'' presents the plot of an unseen episode, going as far as providing a full summary, character design, and even background design. The episode was about Yugo and friends trying to save a village from complete dryness. For some reason, the episode was scrapped and never produced. The only remaining bit is the title character, a charming Eniripsa called Mey d'Elongrot, who was present in the crowd as a cameo in episode 10.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The show's only physical releases are in France and Australia, unless you were one of the lucky people to Kickstart $45+ to the English Dub; in that case, you got a region free Blu-Ray with all the episodes (in both French and English, spanning 7 discs) before season 3 happened. Only a little over 3500 copies were made.

Crowner called for removing Hey, It's That Voice/Guy examples from trivia pages: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1454613823001793300&page=4#89


* HeyItsThatVoice
** Ankama's French-language dub of ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'' shares most of ''Wakfu'''s voice cast. Yoko and Evangelyne share Geneviève Doang, and Cédric Dumond (the obnoxious announcer during the "Gobbowl Hell" arc) is also Kamina. Other notable ones are Nia/Amalia, Kittan/Nox, Viral/Xav, and Tymilph/Rubilax.
** The series also features some well-known voice actors. In the 3rd episode, Kabrok/The Black Raven is voiced by [[http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Darbois Richard Darbois]], who is better known as the French voice of Harrison Ford and Batman in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' (among many, many others).
** In the 23th episode, Drill is voiced by [[http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Hatet Pierre Hatet]], who is better known as the French voice of Emmett Brown in ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'' and the Joker in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''.
** You wouldn't notice it, but Rubilax's voice actor is also the French voice of Bugs Bunny and Garfield. In the same way, Ruel Stroud's voice actor is also the French voice of... Jack Bauer in ''Series/TwentyFour''!
** Grougaloragran's voice actor, [[http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benoît_Allemane Benoît Allemane]], is also the French voice of Goliath in ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'', Morgan Freeman, Foghorn Leghorn, Alex Louis Armstrong in ''Anime/FullmetalAlchemist'', and Tony the Tiger.
** Kriss Krass (the captain of the opposing team in the gobbowl arc) is voiced by Mathias Kozlowski, who also did the French voice for Tsubasa Oozora from the football anime ''Manga/CaptainTsubasa''. The voice casting director said that it was not a coincidence that he thought about him first (but he still got the role because his voice matched the character). Mathias Kozlowski was also the french voice of [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans Robin]]
** Remington Smisse is voiced by the same man who voiced his cousin Monde Smisse. Grany is voiced by Kriss Krasse's voice actor.
** Allegedly, according to [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wakfu#Characters an unsourced Wikipedia entry]], Wakfu's 2009 English "test dub" was done by ''WesternAnimation/CodeLyoko'''s dub voice actors. This cannot be confirmed as the test dub is extremely rare and hard to find, but Wikipedia's list is reproduced here:
*** Barbara Weber-Schaff (Ulrich) as Yugo;
*** Sharon Mann (Jérémie/Aelita) as Amalia;
*** David Gasman (William/Jim) as Sadlygrove;
*** Matthew Gezcy (Odd) as Rubilax, Alibert;
*** Paul Bandey (Franz Hopper) as Ruel;
*** Jodi Forrest (Sissi) as Evangelyne.
