"There is", writes Taylor, "a particular kind of pleasure for an audience watching these infantile attacks. Part of the satisfaction arises from the fact that in the burlesque mode which Jarry invents, there is no place for consequence. While Ubu may be relentless in his political aspirations, and brutal in his personal relations, he apparently has no measurable effect upon those who inhabit the farcical world which he creates around himself. He thus acts out our most childish rages and desires, in which we seek to gratify ourselves at all cost".

" Einstein, in a one-and-a-half-page hand-written German- language letter to philosopher Eric Gutkind, dated Princeton, New Jersey, 3 January 1954, a year and three and a half months before his death, wrote: "The word God is for me nothing but the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of venerable but still rather primitive legends.

Compared to her original counterpart, who is known for being the most childish of the three, Bubbles is comparatively mature and often acts as the mediator in many situations and tries to calm her teammates down when in such situations.

She is quite naive, often saying things she doesn't understand and is the most "childish" of Minato's Sekirei (even more so than Kusano), yet at times can be insightful. Musubi is the most "competitive" of Minato's Sekirei, often showing great eagerness to fight other Sekirei, but never fails to be polite, usually introducing herself and then asking for permission first before fighting them. Two running gags in the story are how her clothing always ends up in tatters, revealing her sexy curves after every fight, and how she seems unable to land on her feet after leaping from a great height but always crash-lands on top of Minato. After hearing Tsukiumi say that she is Minato's wife, she decides that she is his wife too.

Michael Farr felt that, unlike the previous Tintin adventure, some sense of a plot emerges at the end of the story with the introduction of the American diamond-smuggling racket. Philippe Goddin thought the work to be "more exciting" than Land of the Soviets and argued that Hergé's depiction of the native Congolese was not mocking but a parody of past European militaries. By contrast, Harry Thompson believed that "Congo is almost a regression from Soviets", in his opinion having no plot or characterisation; he described it as "probably the most childish of all the Tintin books". Simon Kuper of the Financial Times criticised both Land of the Soviets and Tintin in the Congo as the "worst" of the Adventures, opining that they were "poorly drawn" and "largely plot-free".

262, comments that "those ancient commentators who mention Timaeus's idea that the affair is an act of vicarious revenge for the ruse of the Trojan Horse have the good sense to scoff at it." As recorded by Polybius (2nd century BC), > he tells us that the Romans still commemorate the disaster at Troy by > shooting (κατακοντίζειν, "to spear down") on a certain day a war-horse > before the city in the Campus Martius, because the capture of Troy was due > to the wooden horse — a most childish statement. For at that rate we should > have to say that all barbarian tribes were descendants of the Trojans, since > nearly all of them, or at least the majority, when they are entering on a > war or on the eve of a decisive battle sacrifice a horse, divining the issue > from the manner in which it falls. Timaeus in dealing with the foolish > practice seems to me to exhibit not only ignorance but pedantry in supposing > that in sacrificing a horse they do so because Troy was said to have been > taken by means of a horse.
