History WesternAnimation / ClassOfTheTitans

* AngryGuardDog: Cerberus, guardian of the gates to underworld. Known to become a [[BigFriendlyDog big friendly dog]] when in the prescence of his master Hades or whenever he hears lyre music.

* Dangerously Genre Savvy: The ''first'' thing Cronus does after escaping Tartarus is go to the Oracle to find out if there is anyone who can stop him, completely averting NothingCanStopUsNow. He then proceeds to target who he thinks is the weakest link, Neil, and almost downright wins. Throughout the rest of the series Cronus will prove Genre Savvy, which is what makes him so dangerous, even with his titanic ego sometimes being his undoing

* Archie - "The Warrior," descendant of Achilles.

'''''Class of the Titans''''' is a Canadian animated television series created by Studio B Productions and {{Nelvana}}. The series lasted from December 2005 to February 2008. A total of 52 episodes in two seasons.

* AccidentalHero: In the episode "Labour Day" it is shown that [[spoiler: Herry]] was the one who completed a few of the 12 labors of Hercules. Hercules merely showed up in time for the masses to give him the credit.

* AlmightyJanitor: Mr. Suez is [[spoiler: [[SdrawkcabAlias Zeus]], the king of the ancient Grecian Gods]]

* BecauseDestinySaysSo: The first thing Cronus does after breaking out of Tartarus is walk up to [[BlindSeer The Oracle]] and ask; "What, if anything, can stop me?" For an answer he is shown images of the seven teens. This is the main reason the Olympian gods recruit them in the first place.

* ChristmasEpisode.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Athena

* GiantEnemyCrab: [[spoiler: Evil!Theresa]] summons one in the finale.

* JackOfAllStats: Archie seems to be this. Strong, but not as much as Herry, fast and agile but not as much as Atlanta and smart but not as much as Odie. In a way he's the perfect balance

* JerkassFacade: Archie is normally an aloof DeadpanSnarker… who really is a big softy inside

* LaserGuidedAmnesia: In one episode the entire cast, except Neil, lose their memories due to exposure to the river Lethe. [[AmnesiacGod This also includes Cronus.]]
* MixAndMatchCritters: Being based on Greek mythology this pops up a lot when dealing with monsters. The chimera is a lion/goat/snake creature, the minotaur is half-bull half-human, griffins are lion/bird animals and Typhoeus is a winged beast with ''snakes'' for legs.
** In an early episode Cronus takes one of his giant henchmen and swaps his upper torso with a bear. He turns another giant into a spider-monster-thing. Just ''because'' he can- he's a God!

* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: Played straight -- reptiles usually are abhorrent.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Neil, and so much so.
* SdrawkcabAlias: [[spoiler: Mr Suez is actually Zeus]].

** There are numerous [[ShoutOut Shout Outs]] to RayHarryhausen's Greek mythology movies. Especially the Kraken episode--the Kraken is actually a [[NorseMythology Norse]] critter, whose only connection to Greek myth is the movie ''ClashOfTheTitans.'' And then of course, [[CaptainObvious there's the show's title.]]

** Another episode had the teens minus Jay venturing into the Underworld on a mission to save Jay from death. They were warned NOT to stray off the path. What does Neil do? Walk off the path. What happens to him? Turns into a stone statue. Granted, he did turn back to normal when he was set on the path again.
* WelcomeBackTraitor: [[spoiler: Theresa]]
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: During the finale [[spoiler: Theresa]] becomes [[TenMinuteRetirement tired of having to save the world]] every week and blames the gods for putting them in this situation to being with. [[spoiler: Theresa]] then goes about stealing some of the gods' powers and ''using'' them. Before long [[spoiler: Theresa]] begins systematically hunting down everyone of the Greek pantheon to take away their powers so the teens can have 'normal lives' again.

*** Doubly so since Achilles mother (Archie's however-many-greats grandmother) was a sea deity,

* AngryGuardDog: Cerberus, gaurdian of the gates to underworld. Known to become a [[BigFriendlyDog big friendly dog]] when in the prescence of his master Hades or whenever he hears lyre music.

* BecauseDestinySaysSo: The first thing Cronus does after breaking out of Tartarus is walk up to [[BlindSeer The Oracle]] and ask; "What, if anything, can stop me?" For an answer he is shown images of the seven teens. This is the main reason the olympian gods recruit them in the first place.

* [[TheLancer Atlanta]] - "The Hunter," descendant of Atalanta (the opening theme says Artemis, but WordOfGod admitted this was a mistake)

** Teresa, too, although to a much lesser extent. She can still hold her own in a hand-to-hand fight, and can manage just fine with her nunchuks.

* BadassInANiceSuit: Cronus
* BigBad: Cronus

* RedHeadedHero: Theresa and Atlanta

* EvilLaugh: Kronos has a maniac one that borders sometime on LaughingMad

* BadassInANiceSuit: Cronos

* CompositeCharacter: The Cronos of the show is predominantly based on the father of the gods and the leader of the Titans, but also has time powers associated with Chronos, an entirely different deity.

* GiantMook: Literally; Cronos has giants for henchmen.

* BadassInANiceSuit: Kronos

* ChristmasEpisode

* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: Usually played straight--but subverted with Harmony, the Goddess of Harmony, who appears as a pink snake with eyeglasses.

* TheHero: Jay.

* JackOfAllStats: Archie seems to be this. Strong, but not as much as Herry, fast and agile but not as much as Atlanta and smart but not as much as Oddie. In a way he's the perfect balance

* JerkassFacade: Archie is normally a aloof, DeadpanSnarker… who really is a big softy inside
* LargeHam: Cronus. Does not make him any less of a threat. Being voiced by [[DavidKaye David Kaye]] helps.

* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: Usually played straight--but subverted with Harmony, the Goddess of Harmony, who appears to a pink snake with eyeglasses.

* TakenForGranite: One episode features Medusa and her two sisters. It is also explicitaly stated that anything that gets turned to stone stays that way forever.

* Neil - "The Good Looking," descendant of Narcissus.

* FluffyTamer: Hermes seems to have shades of this. He tames griffins on the side and even baby-talks to them.

* LaserGuidedAmnesia: In one episode the entire cast, except Neil, lose their memories due to exposure to the river Lethe. [[AmnesiacGod This includes Cronus.]]

** In an early episode Cronus takes one of his giant henchmen and swaps his upper torso with a bear. He turns another giant into a spider-monster-thing. Just because he can.

* PoliceAreUseless: Usually played straight whenever the kids are running around the city chasing monsters, but justified in "Breathtaking Beauty" because the police can't stop a sphinx from eating whoever she wants.

* SinisterScythe: Cronus

* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: During the finale [[spoiler: Theresa]] becomes tired of having to save the world every week and blames the gods for putting them in this situation to being with.

Before long [[spoiler: Theresa]] begins systematically hunting down every member of the Greek pantheon to take away their powers so the teens can have 'normal lives' again.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Archie is afraid of water. This is actually quite [[{{Irony}} ironic]] since Achilles gained his famed invulnerability when his mother dipped him in the River Styx (holding him by the [[AchillesHeel heel]]).

* ActionGirl: Atlanta, especially in "Tantalize This" when she expresses a desire to prove she can be just as strong if not stronger than all the boys on the team.

* PoliceareUseless: Usually played straight whenever the kids are running around the city chasing monsters, but justified in "Breathtaking Beauty" because the police can't stop a sphinx from eating whoever she wants.
