*ChildSoldiers: As per usual for the Jedi, a bunch of little kid padwans are sent across the galaxy, unsupervised, and let into a ton of dangerous situations, including fighting villains. While Taborr and his goons are hardly the worst threats a Jedi could ever face and the kids are not exactly being sent into actual war like padwans during the Clone Wars, this sentiment still is applicable nonetheless.

* TheUnintelligible: Nubs speaks in his own language which is incomprehensible to the viewers, with occasionally an English word thrown in. His two friends understand him just fine though. Raxlo doesn't.

* LighterAndSofter: "An Adventure with Yoda" has two Nihil pirates as the villains of the episode. However, as ''Young Jedi Adventures'' is aimed at a younger demographic than even the most young-reader-friendly stories of the ''High Republic'' publishing initiative, the atrocities they commit here mostly amount to robbing a maintenance shop and stealing Jedi Vectors rather than performing lethal acts of piracy and terrorism as they are infamously known for. There is also a larger narrative justification in that since the show takes place before Phase I, the Nihil have yet to reveal to the galaxy [[NGOSuperpower just how organized and dangerous they really are]], and their worst atrocities have yet to come. Even then, unlike many other antagonists in the show, the Nihil pirates aren't given any comedic or sympathetic quirks.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Flynning}}: A lot of it - it's how the show is able to still have lightsaber duels (or saber vs vibroblade duels in Taborr's case) while still maintaining a preschool-level of intensity. Even given that the [[SetSwordsToStun the swords are set to stun,]] sabers will always clash with each other and nobody will ever be hit directly with one. At most the characters sometimes hit an opponent's weapon out of their hands, disarming them while not actually striking their person.


Added DiffLines:

* GreenAesop: Many of Nubs and Lys' episodes, as they are into botany and wildlife conservation respectively. Raxlo's episodes are this as well, as he is a EcocidalAntagonist until they apparently reform him in his last appearance.


Added DiffLines:

* SetSwordsToStun: Naturally, given its a preschool series. The younglings use training blades that don't cut anything, though [[{{Flynning}} they rarely strike anyone with their sabers anyway]]. Likewise, Taborr's wrist blaster shoots harmless concussive force that doesn't do much more than knock people down, and most droids' seen are security droids with tame lasers that hurt, but don't injure.
