* OvershadowedByControversy: Three characters suffer from this, Tord, Helucard, and Patryck. Tord for his real life counterpart/first voice actor being harassed off the internet by stalkers and toxic fans upset with his and the character's departure from the show, or for his second voice actor being fired [[RoleEndingMisdemeanor after it came out that he groomed and sexually abused a then underaged Kiki Palmer]]. Although he remains a fan-favorite, the former reason makes fans skeptical of a comeback of the character. On a similar note, Helucard was based on and voiced by Dominic Сharbonneau who himself was accused of grooming underaged girls. Patryck because his real life counterpart/voice actor, Patryk Dudlewicz made an angry Tumblr post where he ranted about how the character he played was frequently shipped with Paul, (also based on a real person) and shippers used their real names, much to his discomfort. Fans usually keep this mind when referring to the character, often changing his name to simply Pat or keeping the extra c that isn't in Patryk's actual name.
