- Base-Breaking Character: Jackie Wackerman. She's either loved for her "wacky" personality or despised for her creepy obsession with Kick.
- Crossover Ship: Kick Buttowski and Heloise from Jimmy Two-Shoes has a rather small fanbase.
- Die for Our Ship: Ronaldo, to many Kick/Kendall shippers. However, he also has a lot of fans who simply don't like him and Kendall together.
- Draco in Leather Pants – Gordon Gibble. He had fangirls even before his first appearance. Ronaldo as well.
- Epileptic Trees: Some fans have joked that the whistle Kendall pulled out in "Box Office Blitz" was a rape whistle, because it seems to be the only realistic reason she would be carrying a whistle, other than her being Crazy-Prepared.
- Fanon: Much of the fanbase depict Kick having brown, curly hair.
- Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Kick Buttowski was pretty popular in Latin America & Spain.
- Ho Yay - Plenty of it, in terms of how Gunther (as a character) bounces off of Kick, and vice versa.
- In "Kickin Genes":
Gunther: What's your mom's first name?
Kick: Honey.
Gunther: (rubs Kick's face) Don't be shy, sugar, just tell me.- In one episode where Gunther and his family has to move away, he gives Kick a photo of himself lying on a bear rug giving a suggestive pose.
- Just Here for Godzilla: A lot of people like this show primarily because they are Kick/Kendall shippers.
- Nausea Fuel: Kendall made to eat a mouldy old sandwich from the trash in "Hand in Hand".
- One True Pairing: In Fan Fiction, Kick/Kendall is over-represented, not just compared to all other possible pairings, but also compared to all other possible story subjects.
- Suspiciously Similar Song: A guitar riff variation on Yakety Sax in "Shh" as Kick chases his psychopathic pet around the library.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Gunther and Jackie's potential status as a Beta Couple. See Snap Back / Negative Continuity in the main page.
- "Power Play" in general - the whole episode had Kick getting beat up for no reason, and with no positive resolve whatsoever to make his character worth rooting for. In fact arguably a lot of Season 2's episodes have been like this. All they're doing is making Kick, as a character, look weak and too pathetic to root for (As for "Power Play", it's not the worst episode, but it's easily the worst offender of this trope in Season 2 so far.).
- Unpopular Popular Character:
- Kendall. In "Dog Gone" it's shown nobody went to her birthday party.
- The title character as well. Being a kid whose one goal in life is to do the impossible, it's not surprising that Kick has alienated most of Mellowbrook for his reckless personality. But to fans and regular viewers, he is an Ensemble Dark Horse in the Disney universe.
