* [[Fun with Subtitles]]: In the Feast Master story arc where [[Deadpool]] is a guest judge, he plays his characteristic role of [[Fourth Wall Observer]] and gripes about his subtitles being the same color as those of Baninja. After that, he gets his own word balloons (the only word balloons ever used in the entire series).

Line 59:

** Baninja gives this trope a twist in Vol. 3.
* [[Literal-Minded]]: Baninja is naive to the ways of the "outside world" and misunderstands concepts such as [https://web.archive.org/web/20090524024842/http://www.banana-ninja.com/episodes/BananaShopOfHorrorsPt2.html "hopping on this bus"].
* People are [[Made of Explodium]] at the end of [https://web.archive.org/web/20090413192059/http://www.banana-ninja.com/episodes/BananaShopOfHorrorsPt4.html Banana Shop of Horrors Part 4].
* Baninja competes against a [[Mad Scientist]] in Feast Master.

Line 82:
* [[People Puppets]]: Seppuku uses [[Our Elves Are Better|Kyra's]] nervous system as an antenna to broadcast a distress call to Baninja in World of the Damned Episode 3. She is zombified during this period and speaks the radio transmissions aloud.

* [[What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?]]: [[High-Pressure Blood]], dismemberment and a general disregard for ''human'' life are to be expected in any ninja franchise. There are also instances of child abuse and phallic humor.
