* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: [[spoiler:Proxima, once she turns evil. All the poor girl wanted was a family, since she was an orphan raised by the Astromancers, and she appeared like she had finally got one when it was revealed she was Arkayna's lost sister... [[YankTheDogsChain only to later find out this all was a lie, and Zarya was the real sister, leaving her as a nobody once more]]. This serves as the primary reason she was easily corrupt by the Necrafa's mask]].

** "Quest of the Vexed" practically screams in the viewer's face that bottling up your emotions [[AndThatsTerrible is very wrong, and will only lead to pain in the future.]] This wouldn't be such a problemx if Arkayna wasn't made [[OutOfCharacter violently self-absorbed and bratty]] just to get the plot moving.

** While they get plenty of focus and screentime as a group, the Vexicons individually come out as rather flat, one-dimensional characters, with only Eartha actually getting something resembling CharacterDevelopment while all her sisters behave like stereotypical shallow bullies with very little characterizations to distinguish them from each other (though it can be somewhat justified by all of them being ReallyWasBornYesterday)

* MoralEventHorizon: The Vexicons cross this in episode Heart of Stone. They abandon Eartha, and they only bother to come back for her because Proxima orders them to. What worse was Eartha almost reform and turn to good but Mallory manipulates Eartha by using her misplaced loyalty to her sisters into rejecting the heart and rejoining her sisters. And the fact that they were indifferent to the fact that she could die without the heart and lie to her that they did not abandon her.

insufficient context. ship sinking must refer to a specific scene intended to disprove a pairing per TRS https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1640420480098263500


** Arkayna/Zarya is another common pairing. While the two of them have clashing personalities in many ways, they also share a lot of similarities, particularly how fierce and determined they both are. Arkayna even mentions in her diary in episode 5 that she's sad that Zarya doesn't seem to like her. There's also a moment at the end of that episode where Arkayna throws up and Zarya runs off to hold her hair back. [[ShipSinking And then]] [[spoiler: it is revealed that they are actually long lost twin sisters.]]

* {{Narm}}: Captain Kaos wants vengeance on Kitty Boone for abandoning him on an island... [[DramaQueen for three years.]] Sure, in ''reality'' [[RealityEnsues he would've died in a shorter time frame,]] but the fact that not only was his ship stolen (and he was outsmarted) by 12 year olds, adding the mythical context of the show (i.e. main characters who are over 100 years old) makes him seem [[EvilIsPetty quite petty.]]

* CultClassic: Although the show has had polarized reception with a not-insignificant number of people, ''Mysticons'' has nonetheless developed a very devoted fanbase who love its story, characters, and setting, considering it one of Creator/{{Nelvana}}'s greatest original series and eagerly awaiting for a potential revival.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Arkayna in the final episode "Age of Dragons". When [[spoiler: Queen Goodfey is finally restored to human flesh, she has the memory of her second daughter, Zarya, restored (offscreen) and starts praising and paying more attention to her, making Arkayna jealous. So jealous, that she acts snide towards Zarya and even tells her to call Queen Goodfey "mom" [[KickTheDog when she actually]] ''[[KickTheDog knows]]'' [[KickTheDog her]]. To clarify, Arkayna was jealous that her mother was paying more attention to the daughter she had been ''made to forget about and had just met for the first time in 15 years''. Arkayna's lack of perspective, skewed priorities, and the cruel line she gave to Zarya soured her in the eyes of the fandom, especially when Queen Goodfey apologized to Arkayna for ignoring her which many felt was ''completely'' unnecessary]].
