Line 35:
** If we think that the king ''explicity'' sent his daughter to ''that'' particular planet, we can consider that just because our planet is like Galaluna, he sent her to Earth.
* [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]]: One of the reasons all the girls at Sherman High are into Lance. Octus even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] it at one point when Lance is being swarmed by fangirls.
{{quote| Ilana: I don't get it.<br />
Octus: Dark hair, bedroom eyes, moody demeanor. I totally get it. }}
* [[Animesque]]: It's Genndy Tartakovsky. If it wasn't, something is seriously wrong. In particular the art style owes a lot to [[Osamu Tezuka]].
Line 74:
** Ilana slowly transforming into a frog monster.
* [[Bond One-Liner]]: Modula gets one in "Under the Three Moons" after a henchcreature bet his own life that a monster would succeed.
{{quote| "You should have bet something else."}}
* [[Breather Episode]]:
** Considering the preview for the [[Wham! Episode|sixth episode]], "Roar of the White Dragon" may have been this.
Line 200:
* [[Geeky Turn On]]: Octus's reaction to the White Dragon's car is to remark how it makes his "circuits tingle." Lance responds, "Mine, too."
* [[Gilligan Cut]]: In the first episode, when the gang try and introduce themselves without disguises.
{{quote| '''Ilana''': [''hiding in a cave''] If we're going to blend in with these Earthlings we'll need to know more about them. Perhaps we should go down there?<br />
'''Octus''': Agreed.<br />
[''Cut to the two aliens and one semi-transparent robot appearing before a lone woman in a darkened parking lot'']<br />
'''Illana''': Salutations.<br />
[''[[Beat]]'']<br />
'''Woman''': ...AAAAAAAAAAAHH!<br />
'''Lance''': [''back in the cave''] Well... that didn't work out so well. }}
* [[Give Geeks a Chance]]: Kimmy's attraction to Octus.
Line 226:
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: While they're not outright evil, Ilana manages to get the cheerleaders to help fight back against a [[Blob Monster]].
* [[He Is Not My Boyfriend]]: When Ilana introduces their neighbor Barb to the family.
{{quote| '''Ilana:''' This is Lance.<br />
'''Barb:''' Boyfriend?<br />
'''Ilana:''' Brother.<br />
'''Barb:''' ''Boo!'' }}
** Doubles as [[Incest Is Relative]].
Line 241:
* [[Hidden Depths]]:
** Implied with Lance.
{{quote| '''Ilana:''' Why do you think my father chose somebody so...''strange?''<br />
'''Octus:''' Maybe your father sees something in him that none of us do. }}
** General Modula seems to have more than just a working relationship with the king prior to whatever mishap led to him being left behind.
Line 400:
* [[Stood Up]]: Octus starts every date with Kimmy, but the Rift Gate always causes him to have to bail or no-show on her. The last straw is when Octus promises --and fails to show-- the night of the Homecoming Dance, in "Under The Three Moons".
* [[Stupid Sexy Flanders]]: Octus has one of these moments regarding Lance in "Phantom Ninja". When Ilana remarks that she doesn't get what the girls at school see in Lance, Octus replies:
{{quote| “Dark hair. Bedroom eyes. Moody demeanor. I totally get it.“}}
* [[Stylistic Suck]]: ''[[Show Within a Show|Animal Friends]]'', as well as the aforementioned parody of high school dramas.
* [[Super Robot]]: The show is an homage to the anime that define this trope, so naturally, the titular titan is one.
Line 456:
* [[You Have Failed Me]]: See above. He does it so casually, too. He zaps the guy to dust without getting out of his chair.
** Another alien meets this fate when his monster fails in to kill Ilana in episode 17, after betting his life on it.
{{quote| '''Modula:''' You should have bet something else.}}
