History YMMV / SamuraiPizzaCats

* {{Macekre}}: Highly averted (or not, depending on who you ask).

* {{Macekre}}: Highly averted.

** An episode where the princess wants to make a movie has the Big Cheese want to play a part, and mentions that actors RonaldReagan and Creator/ClintEastwood were stars and got political careers. Then comes 2003, and a [[Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger big-name actor becomes a governor.]]

** The first 20-so episodes of the Japanese version featured a character bio segment (Mecha Mecha Ninpou Hidenchou) at the end of each episode that consisted of about a minute of recycled animation clips and a little bit of sparse narration.

* HilariousInHindsight: At one point in episode 6, the Pizza Cats get trapped in a ball that oddly resembles a pokeball. The episode was made several years before ''{{Pokemon}}'' was created.

* {{Padding}}: The Samurai Pizza Cat Oath, added to the end of every episode to compensate for the shorter English opening sequence.

* TheWoobie: Many characters have had traces of this, but Speedy has his fair share, particulary in the episode ''Quake Rattle & Roll''.

* [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff America Loves Pizza Cats]]: The American version is much more popular than the original - to the extent that [[http://www.siliconera.com/2010/01/20/capcom-tried-to-get-samurai-pizza-cats-for-tatsunoko-vs-capcom/ Capcom wanted the Pizza Cats added to]] ''VideoGame/TatsunokoVsCapcom'' for the international audience, much to the surprise of Tatsunoko Productions.
** Latin America loves the Spanish version much more than the original version as well. It helps they used the same voice talents used in Dragon Ball Z and Saint Seiya. Fans familiar with both American and Latin American versions have a hard time deciding which one they like better.

* EnsembleDarkHorse: Despite not getting as many episodes focused on him as Polly or Speedy, Guido has a lot of popularity among the fans.
** Polly.
** Francine has quite a big fan base also.
** Bad Bird in the spanish dub.

* CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming: The final episode.
* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hO-pLaEaMk Battle In Flash]], the song that plays when they use their "[[FinishingMove Hissatsu]]" attacks (in episodes 31, 38, 44 and 51) and [[spoiler:when Yattarou/Speedy destroys the comet (in episode 53)]]. Sung by Ami Itabashi.
