Trivia / Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures

• Acting for Two:
  • Samuel Vincent provides the voice for Spiral, President Spheros, and Betrayus.
  • Ian James Corlett provides the voice for Sir Cumference and Blinky.
  • Go Shinomiya provides the voice for Danny Vaincori, Professor Pointybrains, Count Pacula, and Huge Foot, in the Japanese version.
  • Also in the Japanese version, Kunpei Sakamoto provides the voice for Dr. Buttocks and Clyde.
• Adored by the Network: The Russian TV channel STS Kids frequently advertises the show since 2019, despite its cancellation in 2015.
• Completely Different Title: In Japan, the show is called Pac-World.
• Cross-Dressing Voices:
  • Erin Matthews (English) and Yuka Terasaki (Japanese) as Pac-Man.
  • In the Japanese version, Mai Todo plays Inky. This invoked American Kirby Is Hardcore trope since Inky in the Japanese version is given a woman's voice instead of a man's voice like in the English version.
• Franchise Killer: The poor sales and lukewarm reception to Ghostly Adventures 2 has all but killed off the Ghostly Adventures reboot, resulting in the show being Left Hanging and Bandai Namco reverting back to the original series and its art style shortly afterward.
• He Also Did:
  • Series co-developers Tom Ruegger and Paul Rugg worked on many Warner Brothers shows of the 1990s, most notably Tiny Toon Adventures and Animaniacs.
  • Writer Jymn Magon worked on The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Goof Troop, Strawberry Shortcake (Berry Bitty Adventures), and much more.
• Hey, It's That Sound!: "Pac-Man's Park" from Pac-Mania is a recurring theme.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes: Pac-Man Dash! was removed from stores due to the show's cancellation and Bandai Namco reverting back to the original series, meaning it's no longer possible to get it legally.
• Kids' Meal Toy: Burger King sold a set of six figures in their Kids' Meals in 2013. These consisted of Pac, Blinky, Cylindria, Spiral, Betrayus, and Ghost-Chomping Pac.
• Production Posse: Many of the show's voice actors work on My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.
• Recursive Adaptation: The video game is based on an animated series that is based on a video game series.
• Screwed by the Network: Disney XD didn't do much of anything to market or advertise the second season, and aired much later on the network in the USA than it did in other countries such as Japan. Chances are if you've seen season 2, you've seen it through Netflix or iTunes.
• The Other Darrin: The TV show is recorded in Vancouver, Canada, whilst the voices of the video games based on the series are recorded in California.
• What Could Have Been: Shares with the main page.
