Line 2:
* [[Badass Decay]] - Giroro. Although Giroro still the only one who seems genuinely militaristic in the platoon, and is not afraid to terminate with extreme prejudice when irritated. (Fortunately Keronians are [[Made of Iron]].)
** Viper. The first Viper is treated by the Keroro Platoon as a deadly serious threat, who easily captures one and brings the rest to their knees. From that point on, they seem to be a steadily decreasing threat, ''despite'' each successive Viper tending to 'upgrade' in some way.
*** Keroro in Tamama's eyes who laments that the legendary Gunsou san he's heard in stories is just a silly man child. Of course in that particular episode/chapter (episode 336 and chapter 140) the readers {{spoiler|and Zoruru}} see a glimpse of [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass|Keroro we've never seen before]] .
* [[Canon Sue]]: Pururu, who Keroro, Giroro, Dororo, Bariri, Joriri ''and'' {{spoiler|Shurara}} all have or HAD a crush on. She appears in the third season (volume 13 in the manga), and it turns out that she's Keroro's childhood sweetheart and the school's idol. Even though she was NEVER mentioned before. She's also a member of the Garuru platoon. Natsumi likes her as well...
** Then again, Natsumi is just weird on her own. She never EVER punishes Mois even though she has been as 'bad' as the others. Also, in one manga chapter, She claims the pool the Keroro platoon made as her own with a sign saiying: 'All aliens out'. But why is MOIS in the pool with her? There's a clear pattern here...
Line 9:
** Oh, also -- Tamama, with his immense jealousy of anyone who might steal Keroro from him, usually would have blown her to smithereens. The guy's had a 200+ episode-long rivalry with the only other female character who's remotely close to Keroro, so you'd think he'd be a little bit more pissed off about Pururu just waltzing in.
** [[Subverted]] by the 6th season. Keroro is petrified when he sees Pururu's face without make up at the end of episode 266. It wasn't just a random joke either, as the opening of the 7th season references that episode directly. Episode 301 also clearly spelled out how only the old men, Bariri and Joriri, actually have a crush on her currently.
* [[
* [[Die for Our Ship]]: What with all the [[All Love Is Unrequited]] going on, the more militant shippers take out their frustrations on any character they see as getting the the way of their favored ship.
** Very often in fanfictions with "Natsumi x anyone".
Line 25:
* [[I Am Not Shazam]]: Dub example—While making Ikinari dumplings at lightning speed on an assembly line, Angol Mois mentions feeling "just like I Love Lucy in that episode of ''[[I Love Lucy]]''".
** A real-world example is Keroro's name. Initially, there was confusion that caused some English readers to call him Sergeant Frog, since even though his name wasn't changed for the English release, that was the name the series got. Most people know better now, though.
* [[Lawyer
* [[Narm]]: The third movie. Dark Keroro has nearly taken over the world and reveals his giant doomsday device. And what does it do? ''Slowly scoot along the landscape, plowing into things.'' Did I mention it moves '''REALLY SLOWLY'''?
** And the goofy little dance Dark Keroro did to summon: didn't it crack you up?
Line 35:
** The dub takes this to the next level, stating that the "Life-o-puss" laid an egg in Momoka's stomach. When the creature zooms by in the scene after the eyecatch, Momoka asks if it planted something in her, which Fuyuki denies.
** Kururu. Bath. Curry. That is all.
* [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]]: Purists tend to be incredibly vocal about Funimation's dub of the anime here, although in the minority, but even in its original form the anime attracts a lot of scorn from fans of the Manga. Common complaints are that the show was sanitized for younger viewers, reworked into a marketing gimmick, and the [[Badass Decay|changing of Dororo]] from a [[Technical Pacifist]] who routinely stood up to his friends when they tried doing something wrong into a whiny [[Butt Monkey]] who barely even interacts with them.
** Manga Keroro even breaks the fourth wall to lampshade this, telling everyone to clean up their act because they're going to be an anime.
*** Tropers on the [[Wild Mass Guessing]] page have gone even further, suggesting that the anime is a cheap money-making scheme orchestrated by the Keronians.
* [[Unpopular Popular Character]]: [[Spell My Name With an "S"|Kururu/Kululu]]. In universe, he is the least popular among the platoon (not counting Dororo who everyone just forgets) with his toy selling worst out of them all. In real life, he is frequently at the top of peoples favorite character list, usually in front of or behind Giroro.
* [[Viewer Gender Confusion]]: That Private Tamama is just so cute! She eats candy and is in love with Keroro... [[Double Take|Waaaaait...]]
* [[Weird Al Effect]]: The anime commonly includes [[Shout Out|Shout Outs]] to older works to entertain some of its older audiences, so naturally for many younger viewers, it's often the first they've ever heard of certain things.
** Lampshaded by the Dub, in which the narrator tells people to search for ''[[Space Sheriff Gavan]]'' on Youtube. Interestingly, that show actually ''was'' shown in America, but it's highly likely that most viewers never saw it.
* [[Woolseyism]]: The [[
** As mentioned previously though, the FUNi dub doesn't really know whether it wants to be this or a [[Gag Dub]]. It's sort of both.
* [[The Woobie]] - Dororo. He takes a ''lot'' of abuse, especially in the early seasons of the anime anime, which just ''love'' sending him back into his [[Corner of Woe]] every chance it gets.
