* MisaimedFandom: Leia comically slapping Luke got some slack from [[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement certain circles]] for supposedly suggesting feminism is DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale, [[MST3KMantra oblivious]] that it was obviously a cartoon gag about how Leia is just HotBlooded and was a bit of a later in-joke about them being RedOniBlueOni siblings.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: ''Galaxy of Adventures'' is animated by Creator/{{Titmouse}}, a company well known for their excellent animation work, perhaps after the heavy backlash that predecessor short series ''WebAnimation/StarWarsForcesOfDestiny'' got for its overly doll-like artstyle and usage of Flash animation.



* FandomRivalry: With ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsResistance Resistance]]''. Vocal opinion seems to be that ''Galaxy of Adventures'' is better due to emulating the anime artstyle more than ''Resistance'' had claimed to have due to being traditionally animated as opposed to CGI and doesn't hesitate to show violent content. On the other hand, ''Galaxy of Adventures'' doesn't add anything besides serve as ''another'' GatewaySeries for younger new fans via summary (leading to some accusations that it's just MerchandiseDriven) and suffers from ItsShortSoItSucks, while ''Resistance'' has an original story.
* FanficFuel: The wet dreams of many a ''Clone Wars'' fan were fulfilled upon seeing [[AscendedFanon Captain Rex serving alongside Han Solo at the Battle of Endor.]] One can only imagine what the two would have to say to one another and, well, that's where the fanart comes in.

* ItsShortSoItSucks: The only complaint most fans have with the series (aside from it arguably being just another merchandising tool to introduce kids to the franchise) is that the beautifully animated action is just ''begging'' for a full-length series(or to go all the way with the ''entire'' movies), and the 2-3 minute long episodes we get [[AwesomenessWithdrawal aren't nearly enough to feel satisfied]].

Internet Backdraft being dewicked per TRS.


* InternetBackdraft: The Princess Leia episode for depicting the original rescue scene from [[Film/ANewHope the first movie]] in a way that [[CharacterExaggeration exaggerated]] Leia's personality, such as making her more hot-blooded and short-tempered rather than [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]] and relatively level-headed) as well as hitting Luke and Chewie. This was met with heavy backlash for suggesting that DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale is okay as it puts female characters on a high pedestal over her equal-footed male cast members. There's a 60% dislike majority on the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xAcbqnaIsQ video]], and is perhaps the only majorly polarizing episode of the series.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: The ''Franchise/StarWars'' universe is a violent place, and some of the segments don't shy away from this, although it is heavily toned down from what is shown in the films. In particular, Luke's fight with the Wampa [[DiscretionShot heavily implies]] that Luke took the Wampa's arm off, Jabba's short shows him [[FedToTheBeast feeding someone to the Rancor]] and only changing perspectives as the Rancor gets ready to feast, and Vader's short shows him effortlessly slashing into rebel soldiers with a saber and using the Force to [[MindOverMatter violently throw them around]] and [[GrievousHarmWithABody slam them into each other]] in a dark corridor just like in ''Film/RogueOne''.

* {{Narm}}: In "Chewie and the Ewoks", when the big Wookiee lad does a VineSwing onto the AT-ST, the sound effect for his roar is modulated to sound like a Tarzan yell. It sounds absolutely ''bizarre'' and totally distracts from the otherwise awesomeness of the moment.
