Line 200:
* [[Darkest Hour]]
* [[Dating Catwoman]]: Happened between Kid Flash and Jinx. {{spoiler|As a result, Jinx [[Heel Face Turn|became one of the good guys]].}}
* [[A Day Atat the Bizarro]]/[[Deranged Animation]]: At least once per season.
* [[Day in The Limelight]]/[[Hostile Show Takeover]]: "We're the Hive Five. This is our show now!"
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]
Line 211:
* [[Defanged Horrors]]
** When Raven pulled Dr. Light into some sort of dark vortex within her cloak, and when he came out he was curled up in the fetal position muttering, "S-so dark. Make it stop. Please make it stop."
** The episode "Haunted" also ranks up there as one of the creepiest pieces of [[Western Animation]] targeted towards kids. They took Slade, a villain who's already creepy in his own right, and left the audience constantly unsure whether he was [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]] and torturing Robin, or whether Robin had gone insane and was mutilating ''himself''. {{spoiler|The truth is somewhere in between.}}
* [[Defiant to the End]]: Standard for each of the Titans to be [[Defiant to the End]], which makes Robin begging for Slade to stop in "Haunted" more disturbing.
* [[Deranged Animation]]: Bits of it in (nearly) every episode.
Line 222:
{{quote|'''Raven!Starfire:''' Okay. How do you fly this thing?
'''Starfire!Raven:''' You must ''feel'' [[Flight]].
'''Raven!Starfire:''' [[Flat What|What.]]
'''Starfire!Raven:''' When you ''feel'' the unbridled joy of flight, you will fly. }}
* [[Downer Ending]]: Beast Boy suffers this in "Things Change", not so much to the fact that his real name is Garfield.
Line 271:
* [[False Camera Effects]]: The later episodes and TV movie played with false [[Jittercam]] and [[Whip Pan]] effects.
* [[Fandom Nod]]: "For Real" One fan forum began to suspect writers visited their site due to the near verbatim lines in regards to Titan's East.
* [[Fandom -Specific Plot]]: There are many fanfics where Terra being a local school girl in one episode is explained. Usually it is that Terra had amnesia after being frozen in lava and started going to school in the city. There is always a Raven/Beast Boy/Terra love triangle. Another extremely common plot is to put them in a High School AU.
** [[Your Mileage May Vary]] on that though. The Raven/Beast Boy thing is never really looked at in this version of the Titans.
* [[Fantastic Racism|Fantastic Racist]]: Val Yor. Now we know that "Troq" is the intergalactic equivalent of the N-word. Lampshaded by Cyborg when he tells Starfire that being part robot has caused him problems, too.
Line 541:
* [[No One Could Survive That]]
* [["No Respect" Guy]]: Who else? Beast Boy.
* [[NoWon't SellWork On Me]]: Occurs semi-regularly, but a notable example is in "Wavelength" when Cyborg hits Brother Blood with a (small) missile and there isn't even any [[Clothing Damage]] when the smoke clears.
* [[The Notable Numeral]]: The Hive Five
* [[Not Just a Tournament]]: In "Winner Take All", a number of teen superbeings are teleported to an unknown location, where the Master of Games invites them to take part in a Tournament of Heroes that will determine which of them is the greatest young hero on Earth. What the competitors don't know is that when they lose, they're trapped within the Master's jewel so he can use their powers.
Line 718:
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Raven the [[Goth|gothish]] [[Tomboy]] and Starfire the [[Moe Moe|adorably cute]] girly girl. Though Starfire, being from a [[Proud Warrior Race Guy|proud warrior race]], was well capable of [[Let's Get Dangerous]] moments.
** In the original comics, this is reversed. Starfire's Proud Warrior Race is played up ''a lot more'', with her constantly wanting to hang out with the boys and solve everything through violence. Raven, on the other hand, is [[The Empath]], and is a demure pacifist who cries during nearly every single fight.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]
** [[Butt Monkey|Dr. Light]], of all people, takes one in "Kole", by virtue of having a better plan then usual, and having ''very'' [[Green Lantern Ring|loose limits]] on what can be done with "light-based" powers. He loses the level with his inevitable defeat by episode's end, however.
** Control Freak takes a level in TV badass (not that it makes him any less dorky in the script) in ''Don't Touch That Dial'', and tops it off with "[[I Know Karate]]".
Line 727:
* [[True Companions]]
* [[TV Never Lies]]
* [[Two Aliases, One Character]]: {{spoiler|Robin and Red X}}. Although, another person did adopt the Red X persona in a later episode.
* [[Ugly Guys Hot Daughter]]: Trigon and Raven, as well as Kitten and Killer Moth.
* [[Unflinching Walk]]: Robin has a "cool guys don't look at explosions" moment, even though there's no explosion and he crouches instead of walks.
