* Averted with Artemis. The idea of a hunter goddess who swears of men might seem very lesbian, Red is of the opinion that Artemis more likely was asexual.

* CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming: EnsembleDarkhorse: The ''Literature/JourneyToTheWest'' series, if the comments are anything to go by, seems to have a genuinely strong following who treat Red's episodes on it like actual installments of an ongoing TV series, and frequently ask when more will be coming out. The MainstreamObscurity of the original text and its genuinely relatable characters (something even Red acknowledged) are likely the cause.

** "Pele" has a few scary moments, but perhaps the scariest is when Pele resolves to destroy Mauna Kea. Let's just say the [[OhCrap facial expressions]] of the four local kupua are ''very'' appropriate.

** "The Journey of Ra" has some frightening illustrations. Much of the soundtrack is pretty eerie as well. Some highlights:
*** Seker's appearance in Hidden, as a dark winged figure covered with a red glow flying ominously through the night.
*** The Realm of Night and Darkness, represented by pitch-black background. There's also a creepy green light in the middle of the realm's first illustration. Even though said light turns out to be Khepri, a divine scarab who is important for Ra's rebirth, it's still pretty spooky for a first-time viewer.
*** When Ra's barque sails through the Abyss of Waters, we get a depiction of the mysterious gods on the banks of the river. Two rows of silhouettes with glowing purple eyes doing... [[NothingIsScarier nothing in particular]], except watch the barque sail between them. While they don't do anything malicious, they still give off an ominous, foreboding mood.
*** The depiction of [[OmnicidalManiac Apophis]]. Red really captured how the Ancient Egyptians perceived him: as a horrifying monster of oblivion feared by even the gods themselves, who only has to be lucky once in order to permanently destroy Ra and end the world.
*** And let's not forget the Mouth of the Cavern. It's a dark place with some spooky red lighting. Where is this light coming from? Why, the Ancient Egyptian equivalent of FireAndBrimstoneHell!

** Much more subtly, the druidess Bodhmall and the warrior woman Liath Luachra, Fionn mac Cumhaill's foster mothers. While there is isn't any explicit lines, Red notes that most records of the story are ''quite'' ambiguous as to the subject of their relationship, so it can be interpreted quite a few ways.
