Stitch & Ai also received mixed responses. One side of the fandom liked having a TV series whose art style better resembles the original works in the franchise, has better action and more likable characters (both old and new) by comparison, and has a better-handled plot that heeds closer to the original film. The other side disliked it for separating Stitch from Lilo again and giving another Canon Foreigner human girl companion to replace her, also believing that the new human characters themselves were too similar to the original ones and yet are not as substantially flawed or developed as the originals, and some of the new elements that this series introduced like Stitch's destruction form were needless additions. Then there are those who thought that the show's setting is a good idea for an animated series, but the involvement and integration of the Lilo & Stitch universe were completely unnecessary. All that said, the continuation of these "post-Lilo" spin-offs remains a point of contention among fans.

Movement Mascot: Stitch became a minor LGBTQ+ mascot on June 26, 2015, when the Supreme Court of the United States declared in a 5-4 decision to Obergefell v. Hodges that same-sex couples have the fundamental right to marry in the United States as guaranteed by both the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. As the date of the decision matched Stitch's experiment number when written in the MDY date format that the U.S. (and most of English-speaking Canada) uses (6/26), the original film's openly gay co-writer/co-director Dean DeBlois made and shared a drawing of Stitch waving a rainbow pride flag and Lilo's rag doll Scrump waving a flag with the gold equal sign on a navy blue square logo of the Human Rights Campaign, which led to other Stitch fans doing the same, sometimes with other characters including other experiments. (e.g. Angel waving the transgender pride flag.) Now every " Stitch Day" on June 26, there will be Fan Art of Stitch celebrating LGBTQ+ pride or there will be an LGBTQ+ symbol added somewhere in the artwork. Disney has noticed this and has released a good amount of LGBTQ+ merchandise featuring him for Pride Month. The Stitch! anime gets criticized even more so for replacing Lilo with Canon Foreigner Yuna, changing the characterizations of much of the returning characters for the worse, and being a Time Skip Stealth Sequel Series to the rest of the franchise, among other things. Its fans and supporters enjoy that it continues Stitch's story, shows more of the experiments (even introducing new ones), and that it has its own unique qualities that others tend to overlook or dismiss. They also argue that it proves that the franchise doesn't have to be restricted to Hawaii and that Yuna is a good Ideal Hero character. The Haunted Mansion: Professor Phineas Plump • Maid • Gargoyle • Caretaker and Dog • Butler • Sally Slater • Headless Knight • Executioner • Spider • Madame Leota • Raven • Constance the Bride • The Orator • The Cat Lady • The Medusa • The Muse • Armor • Doom Buggy Also with The Iron Giant, since the main characters of both films are lonely, friendless child protagonists who befriend aliens from outer space. Also helps that both films are equally beloved in Japan. The experiments serve as the main plot devices of Lilo & Stitch: The Series, where Lilo and Stitch have to find the experiments (who are initially shown as dehydrated pods that are activated in water), capture them, name them, and rehabilitate them by putting them in occupations where they can use their abilities to help out society (referred to by Lilo as the places where they truly belong or "one true places"). Stitch, inspired by Hawaiian terminology, refers to nearly all of his fellow experiments as his " cousins" ( Angel, his girlfriend, being the lone exception) and considers them all a part of his ʻohana. The original 626 numbered experiments, ranging from X-001/Shrink to X-626/Stitch, had their given names shown alongside Leroy & Stitch 's credits.

While Stitch is one of Disney's most popular characters, with many having been won over by his cute charms and Character Development, some viewers were very put off by his mischief and gross behavior. Forbes's Scott Mendelson considers Stitch to be a major detriment to the film and distracting from Lilo and Nani's plights because Stitch "spends 99%" of the film causing the Pelekai sisters' lives to be worse than they already were. note Never mind the fact that Stitch eventually realizes what the consequences of his actions are in the film, but Mendelson was so engrossed with the Pelekai sisters that he couldn't care about any other character in the film even though (as he pointed out) it ends on a happy ending. It got worse after Stitch's Great Escape! opened to horrid reception with a poorly-received interpretation of Stitch, with many older Disney fans, especially a portion of American Disney Theme Parks fans who fondly remember SGE!'s predecessor, holding a misplaced grudge against the character solely because of that ride. There's also a contingent of Lilo & Stitch fans who feel burned out by Stitch because they feel that he's become overexposed in merchandise and marketing, especially at the expense of nearly every other character in the franchise. Agent Wendy Pleakley, usually referred to mononymously by his surname Pleakley, works for the United Galactic Federation, and acts as its expert on the planet Earth, when in reality he does not know much. He reluctantly becomes Dr. Jumba Jookiba's partner when forced to assist the scientist in capturing the escaped Experiment 626 (Stitch), then later becomes his best friend and roommate when the two are stranded on Earth. His species is Plorgonarian. Pleakley is voiced by The Kids in the Hall veteran Kevin McDonald in all official Western media. In Stitch!, he is voiced in English by Ted Biaselli (except for Stitch! Perfect Memory, where an uncredited voice actor replaces him), and in Stitch & Ai, he is voiced by Lucien Dodge. The genetic experiments (or simply experiments) are genetically engineered alien creatures created by Dr. Jumba Jookiba who are featured throughout the franchise, of which Stitch (Experiment 626) is among them. The experiments, made by Jumba with funding provided by his former partner-in-crime Dr. Jacques von Hämsterviel, were primarily designed for causing evil deeds in a variety of forms, ranging from mere annoyances to planetary destruction. Although at least one of them have technically appeared in virtually every Lilo & Stitch-related media—mainly through Stitch—the collective experiments were only a main focus in Lilo & Stitch: The Series (and its pilot and finale films) and the Stitch! anime series. The experiments, in general, were first introduced in the Lilo & Stitch prequel comics shown in Disney Adventures magazine and in the PlayStation 2 prequel video game Disney's Stitch: Experiment 626, which were released before the original film's premiere, but they did not make their official debut in the animated continuity until Stitch! The Movie.

Lilo is also known for being a passionate fan of Elvis Presley; this trait of hers is based on Lilo & Stitch director/writer Chris Sanders being a fan of Presley himself. [2] Chris Sanders Art (in a reply to a user stating the supposed translation): Not terrible enough! I debated with the series creators on this one! It’s WAY WORSE! Stitch!: Yuna Kamihara • Gramma • Penny • Kenny • Taro • Sasha • Hiroman • Jessica • Tigerlily Sakai • Dolores • Ani Pelekai • BooGoo • Kijimunaa • Delia Like Jumba, Hämsterviel is stated to be an evil genius as well, having graduated from the same "Evil Genius University" as his former partner prior to the events of the franchise. Hämsterviel has shown signs of his own high levels of intelligence, including having managed to escape from prison on his own, constructing a plasma blaster using only the items from an Earth-based hamster cage, as well as the fact that he secretly modified his prison cell to be his laboratory.Memetic Bystander: The attractive, blonde lifeguard Nani tries to apply for in the first film. While she didn't quite gain the Recurring Extra status of the Ice Cream Man, her being the most willing of Nani's potential employers to give her a chance before Stitch ruins the mood, combined with her highly sexualized character model, has garnered her quite a fanbase. Scrump becomes a major focus in the Lilo & Stitch: The Series episode "Phantasmo", where Experiment 375, a green ghostly experiment who can possess inanimate objects, takes control of the doll and uses it to cause mischief in the Pelekai household, framing Stitch for the problems the green experiment causes. Throughout the episode, Stitch tries to fight the doll and tell Lilo that the problems he is blamed for are the doll's fault, but although she does believe Stitch to be innocent, she does not believe it was Scrump's fault until she sees it destroy Pleakley's plant. The experiment inside the doll then reveals himself and ties her, Jumba, and Pleakley together, then repossesses Scrump to fire a plasma blaster at them until Stitch comes in to save his family, causing the experiment to dispossess the doll and run off. Only the Creator Does It Right: For a number of fans regarding the animated shows and films; if Chris Sanders isn't involved with an animated work as the voice of Stitch, then it's not "good". (In fact, several fans also have issues with Ben Diskin's Stitch voice because [to those fans] it doesn't sound as genuinely cute, charming, or enthusiastic as Sanders's.)
