* RetroactiveRecognition: It's unlikely that anyone in 1966 would've flipped their shit over seeing Creator/HayaoMiyazaki listed in the credits as a key animator.

How it's spelled in the show.


* CompleteMonster: [[MadScientist Dr. Who]] is the most dangerous and persistent enemy of King Kong and the Bond family. Obsessed with the idea of [[TakeOverTheWorld taking over the world]], Who tries to capture Kong on several occasions to use him as a weapon at his command. Throughout the show, Dr. Who attempts to subjugate the Earth by using various machines to cause a large amount of destruction all across the planet, such as a rocket armed with a nuclear device; a radioactive machine capable of melting the ice of the North Pole and flooding the entirety of the Western Hemisphere; a solar mirror powerful enough to destroy all the cities of the West Coast; or even mechanical monsters such as a robotic Sphinx and [[EvilKnockoff Mechani-Kong]] that are capable of causing lots of havoc. Not only does he successfully destroy entire cities more than once, his crimes also include repeatedly trying to kill the Bond family, [[WouldHurtAChild even the two children]], and [[IHaveYourWife holding a benevolent scientist's family hostage]] to force him to help him in his plans at one point. Callous and remorseless, Dr. Who is much more of a monster than any of the creatures fought by King Kong.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: The series was never very successful in the U.S. and has faded to obscurity in the decades that followed. However, the series endured a lasting legacy in Japan, where the series was produced, as it ended up airing at a time when movie monsters were thriving in Japanese cinemas. Additionally, a swath of merchandise related to the series dominated most Japanese shelves. It was a case of being at the right place at the right time.

* BrokenBase: Fans of Kong over the generations are deeply divided over this series. Is it a decent tribute to the king of movie monsters? Or is it a cheap, unwatchable cash grab whose sole purpose [[MerchandiseDriver was to generate Kong merchandise]]?
