*** "With the dashing beauty of the Johnson located in my crotch!"
** What about Zatch and Kiyo's battle against Kanchomé and Folgore in KIYO'S BEDROOM? With Suzy sleeping though the entire thing?
* [[Fan -Preferred Couple]]: Kiyo/Suzy for those who like to root for the underdog.
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Victoreem, for... well pretty much everything. On top of his generally memetic theme, that utterly batshit song, and general ham, he's voiced by none other then [[Norio Wakamoto]]. His popularity is lampshaded repeatedly in omakes and even the ending of the manga.
** Seriously, why isn't this guy a meme already? [[Fountain of Memes|He has the the potential for 5 memes already!]]
* [[Growing the Beard]]: In the case of the anime, it takes a ''long'' while for the series to really take off and become something epic...until episodes 44 and 45, which features a ''brutal'' battle that Kiyo and Zatch flat-out ''lose.'' Shortly afterwards we're introduced to the stone tablets of 1000 year old mamodo in episode 48, and it just keeps going from there!
* [[I Knew It!]]: Gash and {{spoiler|Zeon}} being {{spoiler|twins}}.
* [[Only the Author Can Save Them Now]]: Against Clear Note. {{spoiler|The rules of the tournament established throughout the story had to be completely broken to give the main characters a shot at victory.}}
* [[Tear Jerker]] (Pretty big source of these, oh yes)
** In fact, the first five episodes alone have enough crying to drown a whale and hide the city of Atlantis.
** Dont forget [[Bittersweet Ending|the ending of the manga.]]
* [[Viewer Gender Confusion]]: There can't be a single person who knew that Zophise was supposed to be male from the beginning. It doesn't help that his dub voice is [[Hey, It's That Voice!|noticeably similar]] to that of [[Xiaolin Showdown (Animation)|Wuya.]]
* [[Villain Sue]]: Depending on who you ask, Clear Note is either a [[Villain Sue]] or an intentionally over-the-top ''parody'' of [[Villain Sue|Villain Sues]]. He's a [[Bishonen]] [[Generic Doomsday Villain]] [[Diabolus Ex Nihilo]] who makes his completely unforeshadowed entrance by beating Brago (until then the strongest character) half to death, defeats the [[Supporting Leader]] despite the fact that said leader's skin is explicitly resistant to his powers, comes back stronger every time you beat him up, is a [[Hero -Killer]] (including one kill from ''thousands of miles away'' while ''critically wounded''), and ultimately required what seemed suspiciously like an [[Ass Pull]] (it ''was'' foreshadowed... over ''three hundred'' chapters prior) to finally defeat. Whether all of this is annoying or darkly hilarious, again, depends on who you ask.
* [[Wangst]] - Gash/Zatch can go a ''little'' overboard with his crying sometimes....
* [[The Woobie]]: There are many. Sherry comes to mind.
