Season 6

  • In episode 31, Xiaolun exploits Careless S.'s lack of memory by getting him to repeat the same greeting to him over and over again ("My name is Careless S.! And you?" "My name is Xiaolun! What's your name?"), but Careless S. doesn't seem to mind and it goes in a rather different direction than one would expect, with Careless S. actually enjoying the "conversation". It ends with this line, followed by Professor Limen and the Mayor of the Guling town fainting in the distance:
    Xiaolun: "My name is Xiaolun! It was pleasing talking to you for a day!"
    Careless S.: "I'm pleased, too! Let's continue tomorrow!"
  • In episode 47, Big M. daydreams about becoming Cool S.'s personality clones' new boss. He approaches them with a flashy pose and wearing sunglasses, announcing to them that he can be their boss. The personality clones pause for a second before briskly saying: "You're crazy." Then, they walk past Big M., who is comically petrified and falls to the ground.

Season 8

  • In episode 9, Little M. attempts to read Happy S. and Smart S.'s lips through the Crystal Ball that has just been given to them by Huo Haha, as the audio on it has cut off. He comes to the conclusion that they're talking about their non-biological father Doctor H. since it looks like they're saying "papa", a spoof on the series' lack of proper lip sync, and gets yelled at by Big M. for this.
    Big M.: "Every cartoon character moves his mouth like this!"

Smart S. Late to the Action in Episode 47
  • Episode 14 has a few moments.
    • The superheroes and Dr. H first infiltrate the Universe Hardware Company. Cool S. stealthily hides behind a wall to spy on the staff while Smart S. stands next to him. The camera zooms in on Smart S.'s face while said superhero is holding his phone.
    Smart S.: "This hardware company sure puts on a good front. If I hadn't seen all the shady stuff it did with my own eyes, I'd actually consider living here." (Chinese: “这五金公司表面工作做得真好。要不是亲眼看到它做了那么多坏事,我都想在这生活了。”)
    Cool S. steps over and looks at Smart S.'s smartphone screen. He finds that Smart S. had typed "how to permanently reside at Cosmic Hardware Company" (Chinese:「如何才能永久在宇宙五金公司生活」) in the search bar.
    Cool S.: "You didn't just 'consider' it, did you?" (Chinese: “你不只是想吧?”)
    Smart S. blushes and grins guiltily.
    • Careless S. can't recognize Dr. H when the latter isn't wearing his signature cap. This becomes a Chekhov's Gag throughout the episode.
    Careless S.: "Who are you?" (Chinese: “你是谁?”)
    • Happy S. attempts to disguise himself as Dr. H by wearing the latter's hat and changing his facial expression, while Dr. H and Careless S. plan on sneaking around the company to investigate. Surprisingly, Happy S. manages to fool an admittedly perturbed staff member.
    Happy S. (altering his own voice): "You're absolutely right. I am the interstellar inventor, Dr. H." (Chinese: “你说的没错。我就是星际发明家,宅博士。”)
    Dr. H (frustrated as he watches the scene in his hiding spot): What part of me looks like that?! (Chinese:〈哪里像我了?!〉)
    Cool S., Smart S. and Sweet S. see the staff member looking at them and promptly change their facial expressions as well, trying to look cool and handsome. Dr. H expresses Visible Silence before looking at Careless S.
    Dr. H (quietly): "Careless S., it's time for us to act." (Chinese: “粗心超人,我们要行动了。”)
    Unfortunately for him, Careless S. still doesn't recognize him.
    Careless S.: "Who are you?" (Chinese: “你是谁?”)
    Dr. H sweats.
  • Episode 47 has some funny moments revolving around the main cast.
    • In the beginning of the episode, the six protagonists, Dr. H and Beth are discussing Luther's motives. Then, Beth bashfully admits that she didn't know Luther's name until just now, since he is The Nondescript of this season.
    • After Smart S. receives news of people being sucked into their game consoles on his phone, his companions smash into him one by one to look at his screen. Cool S., Kalo and Beth listen to Careless S. read out loud from the side as Smart S. is Giving Up the Ghost.
    • Later, the superheroes (except Smart S.) recover their powers and immediately go fight monsters. It takes a good several seconds for Smart S.'s powers to return, and when they finally do, Smart S. tries to join the battle, only to find that his friends have defeated the monsters already.
    Smart S.: "Why didn't you save any for me?!" (Chinese: “怎么不给本主角留一个?!”)

The heroes' reaction to seeing an unmasked ancient Big M. and Little M.
  • In the parallel dimension, ancient Big M. orders ancient Little M. to pour him some tea. Ancient Little M. does pour the tea…onto the ground. When ancient Big M. tries to correct his assistant, the latter interprets this as pouring the tea onto ancient Big M.'s person, to the general's fury.
    Ancient Big M.: "Soldier Little, pour me some tea."
    Ancient Little M.: "Yes, General."
    He proceeds to pour tea from a teapot onto the floor.
    Ancient Big M.: "What are you doing? I said, pour me some tea—"
    Ancient Little M. splashes tea onto ancient Big M's shirt.
    Ancient Big M.: "—not pour on me!"
    Then, ancient Little M. splashes more tea onto ancient Big M's face, causing the general to start losing his temper and his assistant to start fretting.
    Ancient Little M.: "General, now I'll pour some for you."
    Ancient Big M. is terrified.
    Ancient Big M.: "Forget it."
  • The taxi that Cool S. takes to reach Pegasus Valley is pretty much a rickshaw—it looks like a car if you don't notice the hollow bottom, for the chauffeur is literally running while carrying a car-shaped contraption.
    Chauffeur: "I'm one who's down to earth and reliable. So, you don't have to worry at all sitting in my car."
    Cool S.: "I'm not worried, but…it's too slow."
  • When Cool S. is wondering on which pegasus Kalo's energy landed up on, ancient Kalo reveals that it is the pegasus that looks down on them. Cue a shot of a muscular pegasus with crossed arms and a toothpick in his mouth, much to Cool S.'s perturbance.
    Ancient Kalo: "Look. It really looks down on us."
  • When ancient Big M. and Little M. reveal themselves as villains to the ancient superheroes. Needless to say, the heroes aren't impressed nor intimidated in the least. Cool S., who already knows that his universe's Big M. and Little M. used to be villains, isn't surprised at all.
    Ancient Big M.: "Since you want to know so badly, I'll tell you. We are…"
    Ancient Big M. and Little M. throw off their cloaks.
    Ancient Big M. and Little M.: "…the well-known—"
    Ancient Big M.: "—General Biggy—"
    Ancient Little M.: "—and Soldier Little."
    A beat. Then, cue complicated looks from ancient Happy S., Smart S. and Careless S. and utter disgust from ancient Sweet S.
    Ancient Big M.: "Hey, don't you guys have manners?!"

Smart S. and Kalo seeing Cool S. within the intangible barrier, the latter appearing to have a lizard for a head
  • When Cool S. and Kalo are summoned to a museum to solve a case involving a stolen art piece, Kalo infiltrates a wire under the pretense of recovering deleted surveillance videos (which the two both know that Kalo is incapable of doing) in order to trick the culprit into confessing. After the thief is arrested, an employee points out that the wire that Kalo entered leads to a microwave. Immediately after, the microwave explodes, and Kalo collapses covered in soot.
  • When Bubblegum Superman is first introduced to the male protagonists, he accidentally spits his gum onto the floor…and then proceeds to put it back into his mouth, much to the disgust of Happy S., Smart S., Careless S. and Cool S. Kalo is the only youth shown with sparkling eyes while raising his thumb in approval, probably because Bubblegum Superman didn't litter.
  • After meeting Bubblegum Superman, the five boys watch videos of their screw-ups while they were rescuing civilians. All of them are comedic, and even the collected Cool S. and Kalo aren't spared of humiliation. A video reveals that Cool S. took seven days to get him and a robot civilian out of a forest (and Kalo didn't bother to help with the navigation at all for unknown reasons), resulting in the civilian complaining and realizing that his phone ran out of battery. Kalo eagerly charged the phone—and the civilian as well despite being perfectly capable of being careful—and thus, the civilian got electrocuted. (It's implied that Kalo zapped the robot on purpose to get back at him for insulting Cool S. based on Kalo's proud smile just seconds before the civilian collapsed.) Anyhow, the other three boys are amused that Cool S. and Kalo have their own embarrassing story caught on camera.
    Smart S.: "I didn't expect Cool S. and Kalo to be included as well."
    Kalo looks away guiltily while Cool S. clears his throat.
  • Since Big M. and Little M. used to be fugitives, they decide to help a wanted Happy S. escape the eye of the police and the Alliance, first by suggesting to travel by sewer instead of an avenue in the open. While walking inside the sewer, the three get splashed by a huge surge of water coming their way and are found floating face-down afterwards, almost as if they drowned. Then, they hide in a cave, only to be chased out by a ferocious beast. Lastly, they wear very suspicious disguises (paper-bag masks) and are chased by the police.
    Big M.: "Don't worry. We were wanted all the time. We know what to do. Follow three tips if you don't wanna get caught. One, never walk on the streets. Take the sewer tunnels."
    As if on cue, the three hear roaring water, scream in terror and are blasted by a torrent of water from the sewer tunnel that they were walking in. They are seen floating like dead fish afterwards. Later, they escape and hide behind a large rock near a house surrounded by police.
    Big M.: "Two, never go home."
    The three lurk away from the crime scene. The camera shot changes to them sitting around a campfire in a cave.
    Big M.: "The most dangerous place is actually the safest to spend the night."
    They hear a roar, notice a giant beast next to them and scream before the beast grabs Little M.'s head by its mouth. Big M. pulls Little M. out of its jaws, and the three eventually leave the cave and walk the streets in disguises.
    Big M.: "Three, always travel in disguise to reduce the chance of being spotted."
    Happy S.: "But, I think we've caught even more attention now."
    The disguises are revealed to be masks made of paper bags.
    Police: "Hey, you, freeze!"
    Big M. and Little M. freak out, grab Happy S. and break for it, with a group of police officers in pursuit.
    Police: "Don't run!"
  • Cool S. and Kalo's entire encounter with the AI Search Engine robot. The AI speaks in very informal Chinese, and one of their arms falls off while they are introducing themselves. When Cool S. and Kalo request the AI to retrieve the information that Sweet S. was researching, the AI mistakes Sweet S. for Sweet X. and begins dancing to a video of Sweet X., much to the boys' exasperation. Then, while the duo watches a video about the information that Sweet S. was researching, the video pauses twice, and Cool S. is obliged to pay a fee both times to continuing watching. After Cool S. receives information from an Anonymous Benefactor, the AI is curious about what is happening, and Kalo, sporting a mischievous grin, scams the AI into paying back the money that Cool S. lost.
    AI Search Engine: "What's going on?"
    Kalo has a sudden idea and grins impishly. He raises Cool S.'s smartphone (which has a QR code on the screen) to the AI's face.
    AI Search Engine: "Oh, paid listening."
    Kalo: "Platinum member."
    The AI scans the phone's screen twice to pay the fees. Kalo smiles at Cool S., who blinks back.
  • While helping Happy S. sneak into a museum, Big M. and Little M. wrap Happy S. in bandages and replace an Egyptian-style mummy with Happy S., putting him in an open coffin and delivering him to the mummy exhibit. Unfortunately, the exhibit is soon filled with guests, and Happy S. unwittingly sits up in the coffin only to find hundreds of eyes staring at what appears to be a mummy come to life. The audience members then scream and flee the exhibit in terror.
    Happy S.: "Hey, guys."
    Beat. Cue the Crowd Panic.
  • When Fēi offers to give Smart S. a map that will lead to Smart S.'s destination (the ship graveyard in the Mysterious Triangle), Smart S. asks the police chief for a pen and paper. Fēi says that this is unnecessary and—gasp!—takes off his hair, which was a wig the entire time. The map that Smart S. needs has already been shaved on Fēi's head.
    Fēi: "The stone was found in the ship graveyard in the Mysterious Triangle, and I have the coordinates. Hope it helps." He gestures to his head.
    Smart S.: "No wonder they called you 'Walking Map' back then. So, you've had it all remembered. Do you have a pen and paper?"
    Fēi: "Don't bother." He tugs his wig off his head and bows. "Hurry and take a picture. Or you can't see it clearly after my hair grows back."
    Smart S. and the police chief collapse in shock for a second.
    Smart S.: "So this is what 'Walking Map' really means."
  • While Cool S., Kalo and Smart S. travel across the desert to search for the Mysterious Triangle, Cool S. steps through the invisible, intangible barrier leading to that very domain. Because he is standing in the middle of the barrier, only his back and partially his shoulders, arms, fists and upper legs are visible, giving Kalo and Smart S. quite a scare from the odd sight. And then, a lizard head from within the Mysterious Triangle pokes out from where Cool S.'s head should be while Cool S. walks further into the triangle, freaking the boys out further.
