1* AbandonShipping:
2** Gareth and Sage were heavily shipped at one point due to becoming allies. This was basically completely sunk in episode 20.
3** In a lesser example, since plenty still ship them, Hazel and Kaden's ship lost a lot of steam after Kaden began a canonical relationship with Devereux.
4* AlasPoorScrappy:
5** Even his biggest haters admit that Devereux's injuries in episode 15 were so bad, that they couldn't help but feel bad for TheSociopath.
6** Max's elimination has actually caused quite a few people to feel bad for him, despite a lukewarm reception at best.
7* ArcFatigue:
8** Giselle's entire plot as the BigBadWannabe is largely seen as annoying to get through and bland.
9** Izaya's return as a non-contestant during the merge and subsequent stay as a supporting character, while largely decently received, is widely agreed to have lasted ''far'' too long.
10* AssPull: Sally's elimination in a nutshell.
11* BaseBreakingCharacter:
12** Hyde is this in literally every way for VERY obvious reasons. It largely relies on whether you find his twisted sense of humor entertaining.
13** ''Kaden'' is potentially the most base-breaking character in the entire season. People either think he's an amusing BigBadWannabe CampGay, while a lot more seem to find him an offensive and outright unlikable prick. As of recent, he's beginning to border on becoming TheScrappy.
14* CargoShip: Hazel and his wand, Alexander the 24th.
15* CreatorsPet: Fuzzboy has admitted to Izaya and Juvia becoming this upon becoming the co-writer, which he looks back on with heavy regret.
16* EnsembleDarkhorse:
17** Hazel was confirmed as this when he won the most popular character as revealed in episode four.
18** Due to his importance to the story and large amount of screentime, people have really grown to like Isaac, and to a lesser extent Yu.
19** After his unexpected [[spoiler:early elimination]], Izaya became this, with some starting to like him due to his OnlySaneMan personality. His girlfriend Juvia also is popular due to her HiddenDepths and friendly personality. As of the merge, this could be debated due to ArcFatigue.
20** Tempest, due to becoming an AscendedExtra in the merge, and allowing everyone to realize how funny she could be.
21** Bari is well-liked by the fanbase due to his TheScrappy status In-Universe, being seen as a sympathetic protagonist.
22** Decker is already decently popular for being a NiceGuy and his love of music.
23** As far as non-contestants go, Doc is ''BELOVED'' by the fandom for being a misunderstood NiceGuy, for his ShipTease with Mimi, and just plan being hilarious.
24* FlatCharacter: Among the cast of both seasons, Jet and Sally are overall seen as bland, uninteresting, boring to read, and just plain boring.
25* FountainOfMemes: Tyranitar has caused quite a few.
26* HoYay:
27** Some interpret Hazel and Izaya's scenes like this...For some reason.
28** Isaac and Yu
29* NauseaFuel: ''SO MUCH IN THE EARLY EPISODES!''
30* OneEpisodeWonder: ''Doc'' was this in SPADES! He's by far the most popular one-episode character in the entire cast, and Zetsu is also fondly remembered for his relationship with Tempest. They were popular enough to become [[AscendedExtra ascended extras]] and return in the rest of the loser episodes.
31* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap:
32** Thunder, who spent basically the entire series being a gigantic {{Jerkass}}, gained a boost in popularity in the eliminated campers episode, after he told off Giselle and apologized to Ashley.
33** Hyde has recently grown a surprising following.
34** Devereux was actually meant to be an intentional version of TheScrappy, and it did indeed work at first. However, as of episode 23 and ever since his and Kaden's ship became so widely popular, he isn't nearly as hated now.
35* TheScrappy:
36** Giselle is largely considered a very boring and one-note villain who completely lacks a real personality.
37** Gareth, post FaceHeelTurn, as he's now seen as a pathetic and ultimately generic villain.
38** Sally and Jet, due to their rather bland and completely forgettable personalities.
39* SlowPacedBeginning: Episodes 1-14 are largely not looked upon fondly by the community, citing bland characters, a lack of real development, a lot of missed opportunities, disgusting imagery, etc. Episodes 15-26 are seen as an improvement, but have their own large share of problems.
40* {{Squick}}: Multiple episodes, but episode 1 is a standout due to just how ''FAR'' it goes with it.
41* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot:
42** The love triangle between Isaac, Reyna, and Yu felt like it never ended with a proper conclusion, and many feel it should have been handled better in general.
43** Kaden's crush on Gareth and his view on his own homosexuality makes many believe he could have been an infinitely more interesting character. Too bad it's never really expanded on.
44** Hazel, Izaya, and Juvia working together to take out the antagonists is dropped after one episode, leaving many rather depressed, as they thought it could have been a really fun plot line. {{Inverted}} with Izaya's return in the merge, though even then, the actual quality of the plot could be debated.
45** Sage's alliance as a whole felt half-baked and rushed, which is sad when people actually preferred it over Kaden's alliance as a whole.
46** Juvia not doing anything after Izaya's elimination felt incredibly disappointing to her fans. Inverted by the merge, where Fuzzboy made her become an AscendedExtra due to being so OutOfFocus.
47** For some, Giselle discovering Izaya's existence on the island after his elimination ONLY to get eliminated that episode.
48** Max breaking down from everyone pushing him felt rushed to many people.
49** Many believe Ace becoming much more cut-throat after losing both of his MoralityPet(His sister, Ashley, and his "girlfriend", Cynthia) could have been handled much better. His conflict with Max is also seen as this.
50* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: The series is rated T...It ''REALLY'' shouldn't be that low. Basically everyone agrees it's an M-rated story disguised with a T-rating for literally no real reason.
