* FanPreferredCouple: Despite the series quite clearly seeing their final scene together as an ending, the fandom's preference for Lica and Samantha wasn't lessened by Lica's relationship with Maura. In fact, perhaps that relationship only increased the fans' hopes for Samantha's return to the show.

* FanPreferredCouple: Despite The second season had both Lica and Ellen become interested in Maura. Between the series quite clearly seeing their final scene pair having a better dynamic as well as the fans not being able to accept anyone with Lica besides her ex-girlfriend Samantha, Ellen and Maura quickly became the more popular option.

* AbandonShipping: Despite being the clearly more popular option within the central season 2 love triangle, Maura/Ellen was quickly forgotten as a pairing - they didn't get together, Ellen also had a lot of chemistry with Nanda, and the way the love triangle was written made the fandom lose interest in Maura as a character.

* ToughActToFollow: Malhação was extremely popular and the hype over the series was probably a lot bigger than the show actually could deliver.

* ReplacementScrappy: While not exactly the most exciting character anyway, a lot of the grief the fans give Maura is due to this. It was impossible to create a pairing for Lica that came close to replacing the fans' love for her relationship with Samantha, which meant that the series itself and the marketing around it pushing Maura so hard as a great love for Lica didn't go over well with the fandom.

* LGBTFanbase: Unsurprisingly, as it's a show with a lot of characters in the LGBTQIAP+ community, and Malhação was considered extremely revolutionary for Brazilian television due to Lica and Samantha's romance.
* OneSceneWonder: Alice only appears in one episode, but is very fondly remembered by the fandom - a lot of that is due to being played by Dira Paes.

* EnsembleDarkHorse:
** Samantha keeps her status as this from Malhação.
** Nanda gained a lot of popularity almost from her first appearance despite having a lot less to do in the second season than most of the supporting cast.
* ItsShortSoItSucks: The small amount of episodes - and more than that, the small length of said episodes - is a common criticism of the series, as the events feel rushed.
* ItsTheSameNowItSucks: A lot of the plotlines in the series feel like they repeat itself, such as Ellen's arc every season involving a love triangle - which was also very prominent in her story in the soap opera.
