Funny / She-Ra: Princess of Power

Go To

  • The episode where Hordak tries to scan Orko's mind is hilarious. Key word here being "tries". Words alone won't do it justice.
  • In the episode "The Eldritch Mist", Shadow Weaver and Castaspella have a brief duel of magic. Castaspella counters each of Shadow Weaver's spells and renders them colorful and harmless. The duel culminates with Shadow Weaver setting a monster on Casta, but it's transformed into a big, smiling teddy bear, which goes after Shadow Weaver and gives her a hug. Shadow Weaver is absolutely terrified.
  • In the episode "The Stone in the Sword", Adora (temporarily unable to become She-Ra) has to climb up Skydancer Mountain, while Kowl flies up beside her. After she almost loses her footing, Kowl delivers one of his best lines ever: "If you should fall, I'll keep you company all the way down." The dirty look Adora shoots him just makes it funnier.
  • Hordak is using a new battle cruiser on She-Ra and He-Man when it suddenly loses power. Turning, he finds the culprit:
    Hordak: Skeletor! You treacherous turncoat two-faced traitor!
    • The two then go at it in a big battle and don't realize until too late that they've basically destroyed the star cruiser they were fighting over. He-Man and She-Ra, meanwhile, are just sitting back and enjoying the show.
  • In "For Want of a Horse", it's Horde Prime's birthday:
    Hordak: But what do you get for someone who rules our whole galaxy? Someone who has two of everything? Two armies, two spacefleets—
    Shadow Weaver: Two heads.
    Hordak: [slouches even lower in his throne] I was trying not to think about that...
    • The ending sells it, after Hordak fails to keep Swift Wind, he's forced to give Horde Prime the pair of ties that Grizzlor had picked out earlier. Horde Prime was NOT grateful.
  • In "Into Etheria," after some Hordesmen arrive and hassle the locals:
    Adam: I don't like the looks of these guys.
    Cringer: Then do what I'm doing—don't look.
  • After She-Ra clobbers the Evil Warriors on her own and leaves Snake Mountain with He-Man:
    Teela: I don't believe it.
    Skeletor: Neither do I! A female He-Man? This is the worst day of my life!
  • Bow wearing a pink dress in "The Laughing Dragon." He doesn't even realize he's wearing it until the dragon compliments him on it!
    Adora: That's true, Bow, you never looked so lovely! (starts cracking up at the end)
  • In "King Miro's Journey" Miro wonders what his granddaughter looks like; cut to Adora wearing an empty Horde trooper helmet and asking, "Well, how do I look?" She's wearing it to help jog the memory of a bird.
  • In "Small Problems" Bow finds a Big Red Valve in a Horde factory that says, "Danger: Do Not Turn." If that's not an invitation...
    She-Ra: You didn't turn it, did you?
    Bow: Of course I did! (BOOM!)
  • "Loo-Kee Lends a Hand" has probably the greatest out-of-context Ho Yay moment ever:
    Skeletor: With this crystal I can create a portal right into Prince Adam's bedroom!
    • The same episode has a more intentionally funny moment when Loo-kee, entering Eternia through a portal, falls right on Skeletor's head and knocks him over... then sees where he is and teleports away before Skeletor sees him. Naturally, Skeletor then assumes that Beastman, the only other person in the room with him, clobbered him for no good reason and is quick to take revenge.
  • The entire episode of "Flowers for Hordak" is one hilarious moment after another. Once we see Perfuma dancing with a Hordesman it's pretty much non-stop hilarity.
    • Early on in the episode, Hordak summons Mantenna to his throne room. Mantenna happened to be in the shower when he was summoned, so he comically runs in, dripping wet and wearing a shower cap and towel.
    • Watching Perfuma create flowers around his kingdom and lead his robot soldiers in a conga line, Hordak transforms his head into a hammer to slam against a wall. "No...no...no...no..."
    • She-Ra arrives, expecting to have to rescue Perfuma only to find Hordak literally begging her to take the woman away. Realizing she's got him over a barrel, She-Ra not only gets Hordak to lift a spell of darkness on the forest but also give up a priceless ruby and three months worth of supplies. Hordak considers it a small price to pay to finally get his kingdom back in "order."
  • In "Anchors Aloft, Part 2," Sea Hawk is forced to choose between going after gold thrown into the ocean or pursuing a villain to save She-Ra. He does the latter, which Adora later compliments as noble. It's at that moment that Hawk's first-mate surfaces from the water and reports that he found the gold... right where Hawk said he saw it fall.
    Hawk: Noble? Sure I'm noble, but I'm not stupid.
  • Skeletor doesn't like Spoo.
  • Sorrowful the Dragon tends to combine these with awesome moments any time he's forced to remind the normally bullying Horde that just because he doesn't like to fight doesn't mean they can simply ignore his presence. Such examples include:
    • ...casually crashing through the Horde's battle lines (including armored vehicles) to register a complaint with Mantenna, Leech, and Imp over their attempts to hurt his friends and invade their kingdom.
    • ...ripping open Hordak's armored carrier like it was paper mache in order to chastise him over absconding with Sorrowful's friend Dana and insisting on the woman's release.
    • ...while a "prisoner" on Beast Island, rallying the resident monster beasts to express their dissatisfaction with the conditions Grizzlor keeps them in while still expecting loyalty in dealing with Horde enemies.
  • The normally even-tempered Kowl's continuous use of gosh fruit in retaliation of Imp's actions in the episode "Kowl Come Home."
  • In "Sweet Bee's Home", She-Ra and Mermista are clearly trying not to laugh when He-Man begs them not to leave him alone with Frosta. The two are also amused when He-Man becomes attracted to Sweet Bee and Frosta becomes jealous.
  • In "The Stone In The Sword" Adora needs to meet Light Hope in order to repair her sword so she can save Bow, but without Swiftwind to fly her to the summit she decides to climb instead. Kowl decides to accompany her, but he's less than encouraging...
    Adora: Bow's probably locked in some horde cell. He's depending on us!
    Kowl: If you should fall, I'll keep you company... All the way down.
    Adora: [Death Glare]
  • This conversation from The Secret of the Sword:
    Skeletor: This traitor, who is he?
    Hordak: It isn't a he, it's a she! It is the baby I took from Randor, Princess Adora.
    Skeletor: What.
    • The fact that Hordak accidentally gives the idea he was betrayed by a baby.
