YMMV / Moshi Monsters

• Draco in Leather Pants:
  • Many of the former players have admitted that they used to have crushes on Dr. Strangeglove as children.
  • Likewise, Sweet Tooth is celebrated as a non-binary icon.
• Harsher in Hindsight: In the 2011 song "The Moshi Dance," Lady Goo Goo, a baby moshling inspired by pop singer Lady Gaga, sings the lyric "I don't care what monsters say, 'cause Lady Goo Goo's here to stay!" This stinged after Gaga's lawyers successfully sued Mind Candy, the developers of Moshi Monsters, and won in late 2011, resulting in Lady Goo Goo's removal and eventual replacement with Baby Rox in late 2012.
• Jerkass Woobie: Dr. Strangeglove does turn adorable Moshlings into evil Glumps, but, to be fair to him, he did have his hand bitten off by a Musky Husky, so it's understandable why he'd fear them.
• Replacement Scrappy: Baby Rox received a lot of flak from fans for replacing Lady Goo Goo, who was considered a fan favorite by many. The reason for Lady Goo Goo’s departure was because of a lawsuit between Moshi Monsters and Lady Gaga, and while the results were that Moshi Monsters couldn’t sell merchandise of Lady Goo Goo, they were allowed to keep her. However, Moshi Monsters decided not to, and replaced her.
• Squick:
  • The "Fantastic Voyage" Plot in "20,000 Leagues Under the Fur". Made worse by the "snot goblins" and the fact that Glumps were in Elder Furi's body.
  • One of the ingredients of the shrinking potion is troll snot.
  • The names of several of the foods, including Gloop Jelly Beans, Crispy Bat Wings, Cup O'Gloop, Cube O'Gloop, Slop, Goo-berry Muffins, Barf-mallows, Scummy Bears, Puddle and Pond Pops, Essence of Gloop and Chocolate Coated Broccoli.
  • The two evil clouds from "Gust busters." One of them is a one-eyed, frowning cloud of an off-putting brown-green colour that has drippy bits coming off the bottom and is said to smell so bad it puts you to sleep. The other is made of jelly and is less gross, but together, they make a really gross cloud-monster. He has a green beard, three eyes, stink lines and his body is the same brown-green colour.
  • The storyline that focused on a giant monster named "Icky" who was covered in green gloop and the users had to clean it up. Despite this, his face did look kinda cute.
  • The poop that can be found on the ground in one of the magazines.
• Tear Dryer: In the animated movie based on Moshi Monsters, Poppet, Katsuma and the two Team Pet's are trapped in an ice cave and the pets both have hypothermia. At first, Poppet and Katsuma are crying, but then Poppet perks up and starts singing a happy little song about how there's always hope. At the same time, they manage to light a fire, warming up the pets, and find their needed MacGuffin.
• They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: Lady Goo Goo's departure from Moshi Monsters (and being replaced by Baby Rox) was not well-received by fans.
• Ugly Cute: Jibbly the Dearly Departed Nibbly.
