Line 16:
** Also the Aves family, Lady Gobbler, Voltura, and Black Cuervo.
* [[Anticipatory Breath Spray]]
* [[Anti
* [[Anti
* [[Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny]]!: Frida suffers from this constantly.
* [[Audible Gleam]]
Line 45:
** As a crime-fighting maverick, on the other hand, he's the real deal.
* [[Bus Full of Innocents]]: Spoofed; "Mrs. Chequita! Pushing a baby carriage! ''Pulling a box full of kittens!''"
* [[Burping Contest]]: One between Manny and Zebra Donkey (in fact, this example provides the page quote) and once between Manny and Frida, who tried to pass their belches off as "a study on the effects of excess gas in the human body" (or something like that) [[For Science!|for science class]].
* [[By
* [[By the Power of Grayskull]]: "EL TIGRE!!!"
** And so on for pretty much every other hero/villain with an alter ego.
* [[Cardboard Prison]]: A [[Running Gag]], which is frequently lampshaded by El Oso. This is also a plot point in one episode, where Manny's mother decides that the revolving door on the prison is ineffective and tries to rehabilitate criminals instead.
{{quote| El Oso: "Can we speed this up, I want to break out in time for dinner!"}}
* [[Card
* [[Catch Phrase]]
** "It's a fact!" "Vendetta!" "SWIIIINE!"
Line 86:
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Puma Loco draws the line at hurting your own family. Also, Don Baffi doesn't mess with true love.
** All of the super villains present were horrified when El Tigre gave Dr. Chipotle Sr. a wet willy.
* [[
* [[
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Every villain, of course. And for a hero, Plata Peligrosa has a pretty good evil laugh.
* [[Evil Versus Evil]]: All the time. Generally, it's a way for Manny to have evil episodes but still not seem too bad.
Line 97:
* [[Genki Girl]]: Frida. In fact, viewers in Asia are labeling her the "Latina [[Suzumiya Haruhi]]".
* [[Glowing Eyes of Doom]]: [[Dem Bones|Santana, Django and the rest of the undead skeleton army]].
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: Manny has a big scar over his left eye.
** So... good or evil?
** The trope page mentions that scars of that type can go both ways. Much like Manny.
Line 108:
* [[Heroic RROD]]: Maria's Glove which makes her particularly [[Ax Crazy]] the longer she wears it.
* [[Henshin Hero]]: Manny uses a special belt to transform from his secret identity to his superhero form. He also only possesses his super powers while in his superhero form.
* [[Hey
* [[Hot Librarian]]: Maria.
* [[Hot Mom]]: Maria Rivera, again, plus Voltura (Zoe Aves/Black Cuervo´s mom) and Carmela Suarez (Frida Suarez´s mom).
* [[I Can't Believe
** Also parodied with Frieda and bubble-wrap.
* [[I Can See My House From Here]]: As Manny and Frida dangle from The Golden Eagle Twin's blimp([[Insistent Terminology|Zeppelin!]])
Line 154:
** Raul the World's Greatest Mustache ending every episode he's in by ripping off of Manny's face in the most painful way possible. Lampshaded by Frida in his last appearance.
* [[Sadist Teacher]]: Vice principal Jacal
* [[Screw the Rules, I Have Money]]: Puma Loco bribing the football referee.
* [[Secret Identity]]: Sergio/Senor Siniestro, Diego/Dr. Chipotle Jr., and Zoe Aves/Black Cuervo all have separate civilian and villain forms. Diego is the only one whose villain form is his default, as we only see his disguise in one episode.
* [[Shout Out]]: Just in case you didn't know, Frida and Manny's names are based on real-life Mexican painter Frida Kahlo and hubbie Diego Rivera.
Line 164:
** Sartana of the Dead's first name sounds suspiciously similar to that of another latin guitarist.
** The episode in which Raul, the world's greatest mustache first appears has Manny enjoying the adult life, including working at [[Office Space|stapling some very important TPS reports]].
* [[Shut Up, Kirk]]: The Silver Sombrero angry at the monster that ate Manny for not letting him finish his speech.
* [[Slasher Smile]]: Several of the villains, but ''especially'' the Titanium Titan, who rarely doesn't have his face stretched into a jagged, toothy, creepy grin.
* [[Spaghetti Western]]: Invoked. Manny's school, Leone, is named after [[Sergio Leone]], director of the [[Dollars Trilogy]]. Likewise, Django and Sartana of the Death are named after two protagonists from the genre.
Line 186:
*** Zoe's mother hates being reminded that Rodolfo is the one who broke up with her.
* [[Two Guys and A Girl]]: Sergio, Diego/Dr. Chipotle Jr., and Frida. A whole episode was dedicated to this.
* [[Two
* [[Verbal Tic]]: El Oso does this a lot, mang.
* [[Victorious Childhood Friend]]: At the end of Season 2 Manny and Frida kiss each other romantically.
* [[Villain With Good Publicity]]: The Golden Eagle Twins.
* [[Villainesses Want Heroes]]: Black Cuervo and Voltura, for Manny and Rodolfo respectively.
* [[Wake Up, Go to School, Save The World]]
* [[We Can Rule Together]]
* [[We Will Meet Again]]
* [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart Anyway]]: El Cucharon's spoon telekinesis powers. Subverted when he [[Took a Level In Badass|takes a level in badass]] and [[Heel Face Turn|uses them for good]].
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: White Pantera calls out his favorite [[Super Team]] for using his son as bait. Instead of feeling guilty and apologizing, they wanted (rather, begged) White Pantera to join them for destroying the monster, realizing they were wrong about him.
** Also, he's mortified when he learns that Manny pretended to like Black Cuervo to get intel on the Flock of Fury's plans.
