 * The first ''[[Retarded Animal Babies]]'' animation had the animals recite the alphabet. It is also the only episode in which the episode number does not dot the "i" in "babies" in the title [[Sublime Rhyme|(Hamster's head is substituted instead)]].
 ** Also, Puppy wouldn't develop his sex-crazed personality until Episode 2. He wasn't even in the part of Episode 1 with the naked chick.
-* [[Helluva Boss]]: Stolas in the pilot and 'Murder Family' is much more authoritian and dominant. In the later episodes, the show establishes he's much more submissive in the bedroom. Also he's a flat out [[Abhorrent Admirer]] to Blitzo, where as it's much more complicated in later episodes.

-* [[RWBY]]: In the "Red" trailer, Ruby battles werewolf monsters rather than the Grimm monsters established in later episodes. In addition, the trailer features an abundance of bloody decapitations and flying appendages, as opposed to Grimm simply being reduced to dust when they perish.

 ** Similarly, beforehand a lot of the time, characters would say the creatures of Remnant are called monsters. Later episodes and seasons would just have them be referred to as different types of Grimm.
-** Tons of background characters would just be known as fully black characters with no features. Later volumes would get rid of thing and use actual background characters with features. The fully black characters would be used a few time in [[RWBY Chibi]] for gags though.
+** In volume 1, background characters were black silhouettes with minimal animation.<ref>Rooster Teeth later admitted that they had overlooked the need for background characters until it was too late into the production of volume 1 to do the job right, and the black silhouettes were a stopgap measure.</ref>  Starting in volume 2 they had actual background characters, fully rendered. The black silhouette characters would be used a few times in ''[[RWBY Chibi]]'' for gags though.
-** Yang ditches Ruby in the second episode for her so-called friends (which are in fact the fully black characters mentioned above). Not only is this mostly out of character for [[Team Mom|Yang]] (in later volumes and again [[RWBY Chibi]], she's much more [[Characterization Marches On|overprotective of her half-sister]]), but as far as the third episode aside from Ruby mentioning Yang ditching her, she is never seen with them again, preferring to stick with her team.
