Did you check the tabs on the right?''

!! Both ''Parappa'' and ''Um Jammer Lammy'' examples:
* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[AwesomeMusic/ParappaTheRapper Has its own page]].

** And it doesn't help that at ''[=Parappa=] 2'''s final stage, [=PaRappa=] is singing to Lammy, who's playing with him on stage, while Sunny is just watching from the audience with her father.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: In ''[=PaRappa=] 1'', "Parappa's Live Rap With MC King Kong Mushi" sounds a little like the rap version of "[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/December,_1963_%28Oh,_What_a_Night%29 December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)]]" by Music/FrankieValliAndTheFourSeasons.

!! ''Parappa''-only examples:

!! ''Um Jammer Lammy''-only examples:

* FanPreferredCouple: [=PaRappa=] and Lammy, [[FanDumb despite the fact]] that both [=PaRappa=] games focused on [=PaRappa=]'s love of Sunny.

* TooGoodToLast

* ThatOneLevel: Many players have the toughest time with Cathy Piller or Teriyaki Yoko. The former gets [[BreakingtheFourthWall lampshaded]] in the game.

* SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}}: The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXqteXa5isc Bathroom Rap]]... PERIOD.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQGOJttUNpk The Christmas Special]] is considered to be the most touching episode of the series by fans.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Due to RodneyGreenblat's popularity in Japan, he was chosen to design the game's characters and environment.

*** Also when you get the song wrong with octopus hairdresser he makes a frightfully angry that scared a few players.

* ScrappyLevel: The fifth level in the original (thanks to a sudden DifficultySpike in having to out-rap every previous Master) and the sixth level in ''Lammy'' (while not as difficult to play by itself, [[YourMileageMayVary some people]] find the background music for the level to be simply god-awful).

* AccidentalNightmareFuel: [[EverythingsSquishierWithCephalopods Hairdresser Octopus]]. Mainly his [[RunsWithScissors scissors-flailing]] [[JekyllAndHyde crazy side]].
** Don't forget [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tU5kBlENd_0 Cathy Piller]]!
** Nobody brought up Teriyaki Yoko yet? Especially when you fail and she rises out of the ground, 100 times her size. Even in the American version.

* MemeticOutfit / NiceHat: [=PaRappa's=] beanie hat, which he never takes off. What [=PaRappa=] looks like underneath his hat is such a such a [[MemeticMutation popular topic,]] that an [[WMG/PaRappaTheRapper entire WMG has been dedicated to the question.]]

** Some fans [[LampshadeHanging lampshade]] this by showing that Sunny is [[LoveTriangle not amused]].

* FridgeLogic: If, in the sequel, Colonel Noodle wanted to turn everything into noodles ''starting with all the food'', then why didn't Chop Chop Master Onion transform?
** I don't think that [[AnthropomorphicObjects anthropomorphic foodstuffs]] count as [[CarnivoreConfusion actual food]] in the [=PaRappa=] [[TheVerse universe]].

[[folder: ''Parappa''- only examples]]

* [[DethroningMusicOfSuck Dethroning Music Of]] AdaptationDecay: The spin-off album, ''I Scream'', was just ''[[SoBadItsHorrible awful]]''. There was only ''one song'' that had anything to do with the games, and what's left is a TotallyRadical, {{Anvilicious}} mix of crap, particularly with the last track; [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcLCGKi8zLA Listen at your own risk]]. YourMileageMayVary, however. Some people actually ''like'' it ''[[SoBadItsGood because]]'' [[SoBadItsGood it's so bad.]]

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: For being 16 bit quality, that Food Court track is ''extraordinary'' work. Nothing against the Sonic Series, though.
