Dungeons & Dragons (animation)/YMMV
- Angst? What Angst?
- Averted in most of the Michael Reaves-written episodes, most notably The Dragon's Graveyard.
- Animation Age Ghetto: The writers were obviously pushing the envelope as far as they could, but Executive Meddling still shows.
- Epileptic Trees: So many theories behind the reason why the series was canceled...possibly because the actual reason (ratings were dropping and the show was quite expensive) is disappointingly ordinary.
- Family-Unfriendly Aesop: That you should give into peer pressure because the group knows best.
- Fan-Preferred Couple: A surprising number of fans have a rather drastic view of Kosar for standing between Diana and her "true love," Eric. That almost no evidence exists to support this ship does not deter them.
- Germans Love David Hasselhoff: This series is obscenely popular in Brazil. TV Globo airs reruns on their Monday-to-Friday morning block even in 2011.
- This is no doubt the reason behind the 2019 Renault commercial mentioned on the Trivia page.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: The impressions some fundamentalist Christians tend to have of D&D and what Hank's voice actor went on to do a few years down the road.
- Too Good to Last: Looking back on this show as an adult, it was surprisingly mature for its time, and some episodes are genuinely powerful. Just ask any fan about "The Dragon's Graveyard".
- Good For Its Day: Unlike most other Merchandise-Driven 80s cartoons such as He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, G.I. Joe Transformers Generation 1 and the original ThunderCats, this show actually had Character Development and strong writing behind it, much like The Real Ghostbusters. A decade or so later, Transformers would receive a well-made sequel series featuring many of Dungeons & Dragons' strengths. Another decade later, and well-written 80's cartoon reboots would become commonplace.
