The List
Both
- Anime Chinese Girl: Victoria Guanyu is one, though with some differences as her looking a bit like a Bruce Lee Clone.
- Bilingual Bonus: Loads.
- Bland Name Product: Loads of them.
- Bruce Lee Clone: Clihan Johnmin is one with bits of him being an Expy of Kenshiro.
- Call-Back: Loads.
- Continuity Nod: Loads to the Goof Troop universe as a whole.
- Cool Boat: Loads.
- Cool Car: Both of them had a variety of Cool Cars to be driven, especially in the Video Game sequel.
- Cool House: TBD.
- Cool Plane: TBD.
- Crossover:
- To hype up the Game for American Comic Book and Superhero fans, Max will not only team up with Frank Castle aka the Punisher, there would be Collaborations featuring the Avenging Web-slinger, Peter Benjamin Parker aka Spider-Man. Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow will also join the fray as well.
- In the Video Game sequel, Max has Alternate Outfits cosplaying as Squall "Leon" Leonhart from Final Fantasy VIII in addition to the game having some Final Fantasy VIII songs to listen.
- The Game also has Max cosplaying as Sam Fisher from Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell.
- A Special Collaboration with Bandai-Namco's The IdolM@STER series is made to cross-promote with the Video Game in which is the Actionized Sequel (complete with a ton of Rated M for Manly stuff as well). It would be complete with a Cover Version of Asami Imai (Chihaya's Seiyuu) as Chihaya Kisaragi performing a cover of Faye Wong's Eyes on Me in it's entirety in English along with some cross-promotions with Square-Enix's Final Fantasy series (especially with Final Fantasy VIII) and as well as a Duet Cover Version of Hiroaki "Tommy" Tominaga's Sono Chi no Sadame from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure done by Kappei Yamaguchi and Asami Imai as Max and Chihaya together.
- A Special Collaboration with TBD is also confirmed and annouced.
- Darker and Edgier: As said with Growing with the Audience below, both newer installments that go back to the original continuity had this trope being used (albeit for a good reason). As opposed to most of the episodes being rated TV-Y7 in Max's Extremely Goofy College Life, some of them are TV-PG due to the episodes having some darker and deeper subject matter included.
- Expy: A ton of them, especially with Zurhajin (aka Broly if he is an Anthropomorphic Sabertooth Tiger who is a Criminal Wrestler).
- Genre Throwback: Some episodes of Max's Extremely Goofy College Life in addition to Max and Roxanne: A Goofy Romantic Video Game are a Throwback to many kinds of media from the 1980s while at the same time, including influences from everything else other than 80s Media.
- Growing with the Audience: As the Audience who watched Goof Troop, A Goofy Movie and An Extremely Goofy Movie are now in their High School and College years, they both have things reflecting on Max as a College-aged Teenager who is gonna get married to a Girlfriend he had in High School, Roxanne.
- Mythology Gag: Loads, though there are even more of them in the Sequel.
- Ninja: Edward Jinzaburo is one.
- No Celebrities Were Harmed: Some parts of the Cast are caricatures of Real Life Celebrities (albeit with some changes, though).
- Stock Shonen Rival: Max's own one is an Acrofatic example crossed with Beary Funny.
- Unexpected Character: Parts of the Returning Cast of Characters have some Unexpected Additions.
- Debbie, an Ensemble Darkhorse from Leader of the Pack, makes a return in both.
- Unreboot: While DuckTales '17 brought some Goof Troop elements, the series and it's Video Game Sequel would go back to the original continuity to fix the problems of the Universe as a Whole (especially with the problems regarding with Max and Roxanne).
- Whole Costume Reference: TBD.
Max's Extremely Goofy College Life
- The Bus Came Back: Not only Peg and Pistol returned, but also with Roxanne (and to a lesser extent, some Unexpected Characters such as Debbie).
Max and Roxanne: A Goofy Romantic Video Game
- Actionized Sequel: The Game is this to both Goofy Movies, complete with a lot of Rated M for Manly moments.
- Back for the Finale: Both the Base Game and the second and probably FINAL Expansion Pack had this trope where pretty much literally Everyone is here to help Max.
- City of Adventure: A lot of them.
- Cool Sword: Lots of them, including Squall's Revolver Gunblade.
- Earn Your Happy Ending: After many struggles with him alongside his Dad along with a lot of Situations he had, in the base game....Max finally gets his Happy Ending by getting married to Roxanne.
- Grand Finale: The Game is the REAL Grand Finale to Goof Troop, as it has Max finally getting his own Happy Ending.
- Lighter and Softer: The Game is considered to be this with Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto series in addition to it's competitors.
- Rated M for Manly: It can't be a Genre Throwback to many 1980s Action flicks without this, complete with some expies of Kenshiro, Momotaro, Jotaro, Terryman, two Gender Flipped versions of Johnathan and Joseph (though the latter two women's case is a bit of a Downplayed one but still) and of course...Broly.
- Referenced Overdosed: The Game has lots of Mythology Gags to Goofy's Career and Appearances as well as Shout Outs to lots of Media (even the ones that served as an Influence to the Game).
- Rule of Cool: TBD.
- Spiritual Successor: To the Epic Mickey video games, albeit with Max and Goofy instead of Mickey.
- Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny: As the Game features tons of Expies and such, Max can team up with Anyone who can defeat Zurhajin, aka Max's very own Broly to the Ultimate Vigilante Mission of Ultimate Destiny.
- Wide Open Sandbox: The Game is not only that, but the Game can explore Multiple Cities at once.
- Wrestler Among Us: TBD.
Trivia
- Actor Shared Background:
- For the Crossover Cross-promotions with Bandai-Namco's The iDOLM@STER series in the English version, since Chihaya Kisaragi is a Japanese Woman, Janice Kawaye voices her in which, makes sense. While Alyson Stoner isn't Japanese like Haruka, she is a Singer just like her.
- Kaiji Tang (Clihan's English VA) is a Chinese-American just like him.
- Adored by the Network: To promote the Game, the Creator gave this trope a more Heartwarming Approach to everything before the game can be released, since he dedicated the Game to the fans.
- All-Star Cast: The Sequel Series along with it's Game and it's Cross-promotional Crossover Collaborations are these, as they are packed with lots of cast Members (especially with a lot of them working on productions that star....Goofy).
- Casting Gag: Loads.
- Defictionalization: TBD.
- Development Gag: Loads.
- Doing for the Art: For both projects (especially with the Game) and by extension, everything else, the Creator had to do lots of research and work for Everything to make it perfect. From doing research on Cities such as Tampa, Florida, San Diego, California, Cleveland, Ohio, Puerto Princesa, Philippines, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam to everything that is fitting for a Wide Open Sandbox game and the like, he has to get lots on effort to make this game stand out from other Games that are similar to the Grand Theft Auto series and by extension, the actual GTA games themselves.
- For parts of the Collaboration featuring Bandai-Namco's THE iDOLM@STER series, Emman has to do lots on research on the Japanese idol scene and stuff, as well as to give a lot of effort for Kappei Yamaguchi and Asami Imai as Max and Chihaya's Duet Cover Version of Sono Chi no Sadame by Hiroaki "Tommy" Tominaga.
- Refitted for Sequel:
- Many concepts that are scrapped are reused in Max's Extremely Goofy College Life and it's Video Game Sequel.
- TBD.
- Revival by Commercialization: TBD.
- Screwed by the Lawyers: Although the game takes place within 2002-06 (and even though Disney owned the rights to Power Rangers at the time up until 2010), the game couldn't include the Disney era Seasons of PR as the franchise is nowadays owned by Hasbro. Because of that, it would include an Expy in which is one of the several viewable Shows Within a Show in it.
- Serendipity Writes the Plot:
- For the Cross-Promotion with Bandai-Namco's The iDOLM@STER series, the reason why Haruka and Chihaya are the main focus (though the Creator might include others like the Tsundere Iori) so the creator can't overwhelm International Newcomers (other than the obvious like South Korean people, to the point that the Idol Singer thing there is Serious Business) to get introduced with the franchise (other than it's Television Adaptations in addition to a PS4 Virtual Reality game, along with a few others), considering the fact it is one of the first productions of it to have English Voice Acting for the Localized Versions.
- For the Game, he wanted to differentiate from other Games that had many elements that wouldn't feel out of place within a Game made by Rockstar Games (or something else) by making it feel more of an Action RPG game at times with elements from Everything else included.
