Recap / Xiaolin Showdown Hannibals Revenge

Go To

Tropes

  • All Girls Want Bad Boys: Wuya apparently likes Jack standing up to her and calling her a witch.
  • Breaking the Fourth Wall: A legendary example.
    Raimundo: Where have I heard that before? Oh, yeah. "Previously, on Xiaolin Showdown." (Raimundo holds open his eyes wider which shows the Xiaolin Showdown logo.)
    (Everybody grins and gives a thumbs up or two to the camera.)
  • Kingmaker Scenario: Hannibal Bean and Chase Young are fighting for power and control during the Heylin Eclipse. If either one of them wins, they will gain enough power to destroy the world. To prevent that, the monks decide to help Jack Spicer defeat them both.
  • Once an Episode: A Xiaolin Showdown Trio between Kimiko (disguised as Jack Spicer), Chase Young, and Hannibal Bean. "Jack" wagers the Mind Reader Conch, Chase Young wagers the Serpent's Tail, and Hannibal Bean wagers the Shroud of Shadows in a knockout match where the last to drop out is the winner, with Chase electing to not use his wagered Shen Gong Wu. Kimiko wins after goading the other two into focusing on each other using the Mind Reader Conch, and then knocking both out at the same time when they're vulnerable.
  • Shaped Like Itself: The Cannon Blaster is a cannon...that...blasts.
  • Stylistic Suck: The tape the heroes show Jack is very obviously fake. "Wuya" and "Chase" are clearly Omi and Clay each holding a Paper-Thin Disguise over their faces (and you can see all of Clay's head at one point when he let's the plate slip), "Hannibal Bean" is drawn on Kimiko's thumb, and you can see her face while manipulating him, and to add insult to injury Dojo walks through the background at one point and Raimundo tells him to stop ruining the shot. Jack is completely fooled.
  • Victory by Endurance: Kimiko-as-Jack is hopelessly outmatched against both Hannibal Bean and Chase Young, so after a few moments of being knocked around, she resorts to just using Jack's hoverpack to keep from being ringed out while using the Mind Reader Conch to broadcast the two villains thoughts to goad them into focusing all their efforts to one another. After their combat puts them in vulnerable position, she breaks the pillar they're clinging to from above, knocking both of them out simultaneously.
