YMMV / Purple Moon

• Anvilicious: The detention scene in Rockett's Tricky Decision. Yes, Wolf DuBois and Jasper Movado have learning disabilities and that doesn't mean they're stupid, we get it.
• Gateway Series: The games were created for the express purpose of being this. Specifically, they were meant to attract girls to computer games, and thus to computers, at the age where many of them abandon their interest in science and technology.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: It's been mentioned that Raven (A character who appeared solely in a website comic) could have been more interesting if her fake personality actually was her genuine one. Having an influential, worldly, well-traveled transfer student who disliked cliques could have been a way to show the Whistling Pines kids that there was a whole world out there beyond middle school, and that the cliques they all were in could have been doing more harm than good. Maybe if she had been like this and stayed at Whistling Pines, the kids could have started exploring new friendships and being more open to others, eventually leading to many of the cliques dissolving. Unfortunately, Raven turned out to be a hidden mean girl and ended up leaving for high school when everyone found out.
• Too Good to Last: The fandom lived on vibrantly even after the series was shut down, prompting Mattel to keep the website open for a while afterwards.
