The Emperor's New School: Difference between revisions

{{quote|''[[Spelling Song|K, U, Z, C, O! Kuzco, Kuzco! GO-GO!]]''}}

 

 

Kuzco, the main character, is still an obnoxious self-centered emperor (in spite of how [[The Movie]] [[Aesop Amnesia|ended]]) who has been temporarily dethroned and must attend [[High School|The Kuzco Academy]] and pass all his classes to become Emperor, as you can't become one without finishing all schools. The Kuzco Academy is run by Principal Amzy, a [[Paper-Thin Disguise]] for Yzma, [[Harmless Villain|the series villain]], which fools no-one except her [[Brainless Beauty|handsome but dim]] lackey [[Bumbling Sidekick|Kronk.]]

 

Usually the episodes center around teaching Kuzco some sort of [[Aesop]], though it started to get away from that later in the run.

* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Kuzco, just like in the movie. One episode even deals with a sort of "family Olympics," and he immediately goes to join Pacha's family. He himself claims he was "birthed from a glorious union between the Moon and the Stars." It's even painted Renaissance-style on the school's ceiling. It's implied in another episode that Yzma is behind the disappearance of Kuzco's Dad.

* [[Playing Sick]]

* [[Popular Is Dumb]]: Averted. Apparently at Kuzco Academy cheerleaders are required to have perfect grades.

* [[Purely Aesthetic Era]]

* [[Rage Against the Author]]: Rage Against The Animators, really. As per the absence of the fourth wall in this series, when Kuzco becomes [[The Caligula]] and starts abusing his power in one episode, he fires the colourists (leaving the show penciled in black and white until he rehires them).

* [[Rashomon Style]]: "Oops All Doodles"
