{{work}}
* [[Angel
* [[Awesome Ego]]: Victor and Morty. Frank can also count.
* [[Catharsis Factor]]: Every time [[Redheaded Bully|Quasim]] gets his just desserts for his [[The Bully|bullying behavior]] and generally being an [[Hate Sink|unlikable character]]. [[Evil Redhead|Miss Hit]] knocking him out twice in the second album is a standing example of this.
** In the fourth album, after all the atrocities [[The Sociopath|Morty]] has done in order to win the Pumpkinball match and acting like a [[Smug Snake|smug little shit]] all the while, {{spoiler|seeing his utter defeat and subsequent [[Humiliation Conga]]}} is extremely satisfying.
* [[Cliché Storm]]: The fourth album has the plot of every sports movie ever in a nutshell. [[Tropes Are Tools|This isn't a bad thing in the least]], thanks to the comic's surreal humor and some unexpected twists thrown in, making the album an [[Affectionate Parody]].
* [[Crazy Awesome]]: Frank. Just... Frank.
* [[Crosses the Line Twice]]: ''Always''.
* [[Cult Classic]]: Isn't really known outside of its own country, but many people who read and, in some cases, grew up with it absolutely love it.
* [[Dude, Not Funny]]: The third album's story about Skin and bulimia jokes can be considered this. Either that, or an example of [[Crosses the Line Twice]].
* [[Evil Is Cool]]: The "Muerte Chunga" team uniforms in the fourth album. This is acknowledged [[In-Universe]], with Momses wishing Guillotine would have made them their uniforms too. Considering his team's overly pink, strawberry uniform, it's not without reason.
** Morty is considered this in general. As
* [[Foe Yay]]: Morty seems a little too [[Villainous Crush|obsessed]] with Frank. True, he's after his brains, but the way he goes about it is... questionable, to say the least.
** In the "Todo Minimonsters" [https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DrkacWpXcAAD6FV.jpg cover], we can see him [[Perverted Drooling|drooling]] over him. While one of his eyes is staring at his brains, the loose one looks like he's looking [[Male Gaze|somewhere else]].
* [[Funny|Funny Moments]]: The entire comic. No kidding.
* [[Growing the Beard]]: While the first album ("El Veneno de Porcelana"/"The Porcelain Poison") was already pretty good, the second album ("The Perfeccionator") proves to be this due to the increase in quality, better storyline and amounts of characterization on the main and secondary characters.
* [[Ho Yay]]:
* [[It Was His Sled]]: {{spoiler|Miss Hit is Henrietta's evil alter-ego}}. It was so painfully obvious not even ''the album itself'' tries to hide it.
** In the fourth album, {{spoiler|Victor betrays the Frank's Gang and joins Morty's Gang for a while}}. Again, the album's cover and description spoils it.
* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: Victor Von Piro has shades of this. He’s undeniably a [[Spoiled Brat|spoiled]] [[Jerkass|jerk]] who treats everyone like total crap and only thinks about himself, doing such things like {{spoiler|helping the villain to achieve his goal and betraying his own friends by joining their rival's gang}}. However, those things were done to come back to his former home Miedópolis, failing in both cases. Also, his life ''really'' sucks
** To say nothing on Miss Hit. Sure, she's a queen bitch, but {{spoiler|being the [[Super-Powered Evil Side]] of Henrietta}}, is not like she ''[[Tragic Villain|choosed]]'' to be that. {{spoiler|Her [[
** Add to that list [[The Hunter|Flan Hellsing]]. A monster hunter, he's absolutely pathetic and, deep down, [[Jaded Washout|he knows it]].
** [[Dem Bones|Skin]] is usually a dick, but he has an [[Abusive Parents|abusive mom]] who outright prefers [[The Cutie|Gus over him]]. Not to mention, like [[The Woobie|Mienai]], he gets put through hell.
* [[Love to Hate]]: Victor, Morty, Rattus Sapiens, Miss Hit and Flan Hellsing. They range from being standard jerks to outright villains, but damn if they're not hilarious or awesome.▼
* [[Just Here for Godzilla]]: Meta-example. Many bought the ¡Dibus! magazine just for this comic alone, being the most successful by far.
▲* [[Love to Hate]]: Victor, Morty, Rattus Sapiens, Miss Hit and Flan Hellsing. They range from being standard jerks to outright villains, but damn if they're not hilarious or awesome. Or both at the same time.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: Due to the "Gaysper" meme, David Ramírez posted [https://twitter.com/DavidRamirezRos/status/1122756423044272128 his version] featuring [[Bedsheet Ghost|Gus]], which did not go unnoticed by the fandom.
* [[Moe]]: Basically every minimonster, but [[Bedsheet Ghost|Gus]] takes the cake.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Morty Vivente was never a nice guy to begin with, but when {{spoiler|he hires a minimonster-eater giant spider to eat Piruja and her mom just to ensure the Frank's Gang's defeat}},
** He crossed it earlier by {{spoiler|
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: There's ''hell of a lot'' in this series, along with [[Nausea Fuel]].
* [[The Scrappy]]:
* [[Squick]]: A lot, considering [[Toilet Humor|the kind]] [[Crosses the Line Twice|of humor]] the author uses. [[The Pig Pen|Billy]] in particular is a recurring fountain of these moments, both from the characters and the readers.
* [[Take That, Scrappy!]]: [[The Scrappy|Quasim]] may be many things, but a [[Creator's Pet]] '''ain't''' one of them. Frank's mocking imitation of him (As OOC it seems [[Characterization Marches On|later on]]) in the first album is basically saying what the readers are thinking, while Miss Hit decking him '''twice''' in the second was a fully appreciated [[Catharsis Factor]] for someone who is usually a [[Karma Houdini]].
* [[Toy Ship]]: All canon and non-canon Minimonster pairings, most of them being [[Ho Yay]].
* [[Ugly Cute]]: Every Minimonster is cute, but Piruja takes this trope [[Up to Eleven|to a whole new level]].
** Frank's new pet,
* [[Unpopular Popular Character]]: Victor Von Piro. Hated In-Universe, loved (or at least more liked) by the fandom.
* [[The Woobie]]:
** The most straight-up example is Gus. Despite his cuteness, he's treated like crap by most of the characters. Although it's [[Played for Laughs]] (mostly), the fact that it's '''GUS'''
** Frank is a huge one, as revealed in "El Perfeccionator". It makes his [[Break the Cutie]] process
** Lupo comes from a very poor background, has to take care of his siblings at a young age, and he's frequently insulted for this (In particular, his [[Jerkass|asshat]] of a [[With Friends Like These...|"friend"]] [[Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist|Víctor]]). With a situation like this, [[Stepford Snarker|it's no wonder he's so snippy]].
** Poor, poor Henrietta. Being an [[Ill Girl]] who can't
** Mienai may not be a saint, but he
** Billy usually averts this thanks to his [[The Pollyanna|
* [[What Do You Mean It's for Kids?]]: Seriously, with all the [[Toilet Humour]], [[Black Comedy]] and sexual innuendo, it’s surprising that
