* TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: The ArcVillain(s) of Season 4 is the Brotherhood -- the remnants of Monkey King's former sworn brothers (excluding Macaque and Demon Bull King) who he once led against the Celestial Realm in a revolution that failed catastrophically, of which they're back to finish by dethroning the Jade Emperor. Azure Lion particularly vilifies this by tricking MK into releasing his friends from the Scroll of Memory, alongside going to destructive extremes to reach his goals and get revenge towards Monkey King for supposedly betraying them to the Celestial Realm after their rebellion. [[spoiler: It gets worse when he succeeds at striking down the Jade Emperor and descends into madness due to being unable to control the Jade Emperor's power, becoming an even ''worse '' tyrant.]]

* AdaptedOut: Despite being a pretty important character in the original story, even after 4 seasons, the Goddess Guanyin has not appeared in any fashion, either as herself or by a proxy.

* AlasPoorVillain: For everything she'd done in the season prior, [[spoiler:Spider Queen's death is played with genuine sympathy, as she's crying and pleading for her life before being melted down in the Trigram Furnace.]]



** MK's first 'fight' with the Lady Bone Demon largely consists of [[spoiler:her leaving him writhing in agony via straight-up MindRape, physically overpowering him, and him unable to even get close enough to try attacking her. The Spider Queen attacking is the only reason he escapes, and Lady Bone Demon promptly one-shots the Demon before her clumsy attack hits her.]]

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Monkie Kid mistakes [[spoiler:Red Son's]] gesture in ''Revenge of the Spider Queen'' as them going to space, only to be informed it's intended to be the Celestial Realm. In the Season 3 sets they actually ''do'' go to space.

* JesusTaboo: In "Impossible Delivery", MK mentions multiple incidents that the Monkey King got involved with due to his impulsive nature (all of which happened in the original story), and almost tops it off with the time he tried to pick a fight with ''Buddha'' before he interrupts MK by stuffing peach chips in his mouth before he can finish saying that name.

* OddReactionOut:
** In the special "Revenge of the Spider Queen," Red Son asks to steal/borrow the team’s vehicle after his own was destroyed, so he can defeat the Spider Queen and save his father himself. The group yells various negative responses such as "Are you crazy?!" and "No way!"… except for Sandy, who calmly says "He’s pretty convincing."
** In the season 3 episode "The First Ring," Mei and MK react to the revelation that [[spoiler: the Samadhi Fire was created by Red Son himself]] with shocked gasps and shouts. Sandy, on the other hand, rubs his chin and says "Okay, following…"

SacredHospitality: In the sixth episode of the third season Red Son finds MK, Mei and Sandy in the desert and takes them to his home.
