* StatingTheSimpleSolution: It's mentioned that if Shaggy is cursed to become a Godzilla monster and rampage through the city, either he could turn himself in to the police and they could watch him see if he's the suspect while lawyering up to prevent possible framing. The gang vetoes that by running away from the officer wanting to take them into custody, and deciding to go on the lam. It turns out that was the right call since Velma's professor was framing Shaggy while getting revenge against Dr. Onodera.

* CharacterCatchphrase: Exploited. Shagzilla's speech only consists of roaring "Zoinks!". When citizens hear Shaggy yell his catchphrase, they assume he's the monster.
* ClothingDamage: When Shaggy first wakes up, his nightshirt is ripped and torn, as if they burst when he grew into a giant. Turns out they were actually ripped up by Dogbot.

* FailedASpotCheck: For some reason, no one, not even ''Velma'' points out that since Shaggy still had his leg chain after the monster's rampage, he couldn't have been responsible because the monster wasn't wearing a chain. Also one for the villain as well, since he had Dogbot bite through the chain, instead of just taking it off.

!!This episode contains examples of the following:

* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: The monster is "Shag-Zilla", a Kaiju-fied '''Shaggy'''... except it's a hoax, as usual.
* BackBlocking: When a bunch of angry Japanese villagers is crowding around the gang, one of them in a light grey shirt fills the screen.
* EnlightenedAntagonist: The Ancient One is a ghost who looks like an old wizard, and who demands that the scientists at a Tokyo factory abandon their plans for a new wharf because it would be a threat to the simple traditional Japanese way of life. The ending implies that he might be RealAfterAll, and the scientists eventually decide to respect his wish.
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: The Ancient One. Considering he isn't brought up when the actual villain of the week is arrested, everyone is left wondering if he was a hoax by a third party or if he was a ghost who wanted the factory to be moved. Whatever he was, he got his wish, so it became a moot point.
* {{Notzilla}}: The monster of the week is a giant monster named "Shagzilla", supposedly Shaggy cursed to transform into a Godzilla parody at night. Actually, it's a giant robot built by the villain of the week, and Shaggy is duped into believing he is the monster because, while he is asleep, he is made up as the monster and placed on a Tokyo maquette.
* StatingTheSimpleSolution: It's mentioned that if Shaggy is cursed to become a Godzilla monster and rampage through the city, either he could turn himself in to the police and they could watch him see if he's the suspect while lawyering up to prevent possible framing.
