History WesternAnimation / Hero108

* DropTheHammer: Deer King is skilled with a hammer, but mainly he uses it to get his subjects' horns vibrating.

* {{Bowdlerize}}: High Roller's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ssiILondcU original design]] had an arrow going through one of his ears and out the other. This was changed to the arrow being attached to hit hat/wig/crown instead

-->"We don't steal useless things!"\\
"Yes, we only steal useful things!"

* FarEast: Where the series takes place. It has a very clear Chinese influence, from the style of music to elements that were taken fron Chinese lore (such as the bagua, seen in "Groundhog Castle"). The most apparent element are the Chinese Soap Berries, which are explicitly referred to as such by Woo the Wise, and minor usage of the Chinese language.

* BadassBoast: "I AM MIGHTY RAY!!! FEAR MY EYEBALLS!!!"

%%* ButtMonkey: Apetrully most of the time but all the main characters got a chance to be one.

* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment:

* EvilCounterpart: Infinitum is one to Woo the Wise.

* MeaninglessVillainVictory: [[spoiler:in "Pitched Battle of the Tank Army", summoning the SealedEvilInACan basically amounts to doing 100 lifts with the improvised dumbbell...and then they ''[[SquishyWizard die in one hit each]]'']]

%% * {{Mooks}}

* NoHarmRequirement: In the episode ''Cheetah Castle II'', the Cocky Aliens are able to [[MindControl take over the minds]] of Lin Chung's squad. Not wanted to hurt his friends, Lin Chung instead uses his hat to fake getting blasted by them. The [[SmugSnake appropriately named Cocky Aliens]] then [[VillainBall exit his friends ]]and body and jump on his "carcass" thinking they've won, only to get caught by Lin Chung, kicked 100 times by him and his cheetah comrades, and [[WeaksauceWeakness turned into fruit]].
* NonLethalWarfare: Even though this is suppose to be a war even the opening saids it. No one is killed along with both heroes and villains using non-lethal weapons and ammo like grapes. Even when getting hit by cannonballs, bamboo shoots, or Alpha Girl's spiked club no one dies. This could be because it's a kid show and they believe in giving them a second chance. [[spoiler: This was played straight up until the heroes and villains teamed up to kill Twin Masters.]]

* RecurringBoss: The Bald Eagles receive SEVEN focus episodes before they join Big Green.

%%* TheRival: Second Squad.
%%* ThoseTwoGuys: Zebra Brothers.
* TitleDrop: In [[GrandFinale "The Bronze Giant"]]. [[spoiler: It's a HumongousMecha]].

%%* FarEast: Where the series takes place.

%%* MeaningfulName: Apetrully, High Roller, Jumpy Ghostface.

%%* TheEmperor: High Roller.

** The reason why Twin Masters are at large and a threat is because [[spoiler:Lin Chung unwittingly created them after travelling to the past]].

* SeriousBusiness: Almost all the challenges are this, the most eponymous example being when they managed to recruit Jumpy Ghostface after defeating him in '''Jump Rope Battle'''

* {{Talking Animal}}s: [[JustifiedTrope Justified.]] The Parrots learned to speak from the humans and as such, taught various other animals to speak the human language as well, when we first see a lot of the animal rulers they can only speak in animal, but since the Parrot King was recruited a lot of the previous recruits have learned to speak human, such as Jumpy Ghostface or Golden Eye Husky.

* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: The animal leaders (examples: Elephant King is red, Deer King is red, Crocodile King is green, Snake King is blue, Bear King is brown, Eagle/Bald Eagle/Ostrich King has white chest feathers)

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Sometimes of the humans' odd skin colors.

* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: Some of the 'torture' methods of the animals count as this, though others are actually pretty cruel.

** Mighty Ray’s hatred of bananas came when he ate a bunch of them and tried to take on High Roller. He lost control and electrocuted himself, with [=ApeTruly=] saying he was lucky not to be permanently blinded.

* SuperSpeed: The cheetahs naturally but also surprisingly the Sloth, for their heavy coats serve as weighted training.

* PhlebotinumOverdose: In "Lion Castle", Mystique Sonia ate too many of her magic bean buns and ended up becoming really fat and out of shape.

* WideEyedIdealist: Apetrully thinks the answer to all problems is asking nicely and offering piles of gold. Unfortunately, it almost never works.
** In "Rabbit Castle", he also offers carrots to the rabbits.

* EnemyMine: A few with Big Green and High Roller against Twin Masters.
** One is with First Squad and Bearstomp against the Minotaur.

%%* FarEast: Where the series takes place.%%

%%* GenreBlindness: Apetrully takes it to an art form.%%

%%* HartmanHips: Mystique Sonia. %%
%%* HenchmenRace%%

* MeaningfulName: Apetrully, High Roller, Jumpy Ghostface.

* NiceHat: Yaksha is frequently worn like a hat by Mystique Sonia and, on a couple of occasions, Mighty Ray.

* RaisedByWolves: The Dog King.

* RubberMan: The leeches when transformed.
* RuleOfThree: "We love you, Mystique Sonia!"
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: The Commander of the Soldiers of Darkness.

* StrictlyFormula: Apetrully goes to animal's castle to offer a golden present, he gets captured and calls First Squad. First Squad beats up the animals, animals refuse to surrender unless First Squad beats them in some [[CookingDuel random competition]].
** They [[GrowingTheBeard break this formula]] in the second season when things get a [[LetsGetDangerous little more serious]].

* TheEmperor: High Roller.
* TheRival: Second Squad.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Zebra Brothers.

* TransformationNameAnnouncement: I am Mighty Ray! [[EyeBeams Fear my eyeballs!]]
* WideEyedIdealist: Apetrully thinks the answer to all problems is asking nicely.
** Asking nicely and [[CrimefightingWithCash offering piles of gold]].
*** It doesn't hurt to try, but it's never worked onscreen.
*** He used it to buy a ticket to a performance of the Panda and Giraffe King.
*** It actually DID work, sort of, in regards to winning over the bat and the hen forces in "Pitched Battle of the Airforce." They actually joined Big Green without trying to put First Squad through the standard challenge. But, to be fair, they HAD already just been beaten thoroughly in mass combat and their allies, the eagles, had just abandoned them to Big Green's forces, which severely shook their faith in High Roller.

* NonLethalWarfare: Even though this is suppose to be a war even the opening saids it. No one is killed along with both heroes and villains using non-lethal weapons and ammo like grapes. Even when getting hit by cannonballs, bamboo shoots, or Alpha Girl's spiked club no one dies. This could be because it's a kid show and Commander Ape Trully's Pacifism. [[spoiler: This was played straight up until the heroes and villains teamed up to kill Twin Masters.]]
