* [[Evil Is Cool]]: Ganon was complimented among his very first scene in ''The Legend of Zelda: The Annotated Series''.
* [[Fanon]]: Michael in Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue was made out to be Mike from an early episode Captain N: The Game Master. [[Alternate Character Interpretation|Despite now being enemies, he and his friends were sincerely distraught by Kevin's disappearance and turned to drugs to cope with the loss.]]
** He's also [[Dark Seed (Videovideo Gamegame)|Mike Dawson]] as interpreted by [[Retsupurae]].
* [[Fridge Horror]]: Typically pointed out in episodes but a more out of universe one was for the Armor of Light folks. It was a Christian special that talked all about victory and defeating enemies...Not a single word about forgiveness (for 96 percent of the special), loving your enemies or just freaking letting God sort out who goes to heaven and who goes to Hell like he is supposed to. The fact they weren't trying to hide the 'sheep' mentality was found a tad horrifying.
* [[Ho Yay]]:
** Some time after the [[Heroic BSOD|Heroic BSODs]] expressed throughout Bouchedags, one Annotator admitted the reason he made it all the way through it himself was because he thought Sam was kinda cute.
** [[Captain N: theThe Game Master (Animation)|Eggplant Wizard and King Hippo]], much to the [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]-induced [[Fan Disservice|disgust]] of the Annotators. To that end, Kevin and Mike as well.
* [[Hype Backlash]]: [[Inverted Trope|Inverted]]. Game Boy from Captain N was hyped up to be basically the most annoying character of all time... but aside from a couple jokes in the first two episodes of Season Two, several annotators ended up ''liking'' him (especially compared to Megaman and Kid Icarus).
* [[I Am Not Shazam]]: There is no name for the actual group of people that do this, though they are often referred to as [[The Annotat Xperiment]] due to the [[YouTube]] account name. Similarly, CurtDogg is CurtDogg and not beeupyou; that's just a phonetic pun of the B^U emoticon.
Line 48:
** The "Surf Music" counts, too. The annotators hated it in ''[[SMB 3]]'', but have warmed up to it since ''Captain N''.
** Jeffrey Scott, the writer of season 1 for Captain N. He wrote some pretty bad episodes (Simon's amnesia being a particularly hated one) but he also wrote the Mike episode and seemed to maintain some very minor consistency. Some even worse episodes of season 2 have some people wishing he came back, though he isn't the only one to write some noteworthy episodes.
* [[Rooting for Thethe Empire]]:
** Characters the audience is supposed to hate tend to get the most sympathy.
** Seems to be averted in ''Captain N'', as of current.
Line 54:
* [[The Scrappy]]:
** Given that their work so far consists almost entirely of animated adaptations of works full of already established characters that are already recognisable, most original characters (insistently termed [[O Cs]]) get a lot of hate. Exceptions to the rule take the other extreme; see the [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] entry above.
** In [[Ctrl +Alt +Del|CAD]], Ethan. One might refer to [[Author Avatar|Buckley]] himself as such too.
** Super Mario World had Oogtar, Yoshi and Kootie Pie. Any appearance by the latter brought in a running gag of her tolerance meter showing up on screen. It was always quick to max out, and the very last time it literally went off the scale, let out an [[Atomic F-Bomb]] and exploded.
