His Evil Ranking[]
His Villainous Deeds[]
- In the entirety of Season 1, he wanted to get George and Harold expelled if they managed to get 500 office visits in one school year.
- In "The Frenzied Farts of Flabby Flabulous", he wanted to make George and Harold do a lap around the world and give him a flag from every country.
- In "The Terrifying Perilous Misfortune of the T.P. Mummy", he threatens George and Harold by telling them to mow the entire football field with their teeth.
- In "The Crazy Caustic Spray of the Contagious Cruelius Sneezer", he wanted absolute power when he pretended to become an emperor on a field trip to Rome.
- In "The Worrisome Wedge of the Water Warmongers", he put a fence in between George and Harold to turn the boys against each other.
- In "The Bad Beat of the Blah Borelock", he abandoned George, Harold, and Mr. Meaner in the woods to get rid of them.
- In "The Heartbreaking Havoc of the Haunting Hack-A-Ween", he tried to help Melvin to cancel Halloween and later made it illegal, because he wanted to have peace and quiet.
- In the same special, he broke many traffic laws when driving his truck, nearly causing multiple car accidents, due to having no license, stole a bunch of avocados to make a relaxing guacamole bath and later wanted to turn George and Harold in for Hack-O-Ween.
- In "The Interactive Insanity of the Irritating Interlopers", he tried to destroy George and Harold's treehouse once and for all. Not only is that a heartless thing to do to innocent children, but it is bad for the environment and is also a waste of money and shelter.
- While he allowed the students and faculty of Jerome Horwitz Elementary School to go to space, he only did it to finally outshine his high school rival, Moxie Swaggerman, making that purely out of pragmatism.
- During the events of "The Hazardous Hysteria of the Hangry Hypnosinger", Mr. Krupp pushed every button in the schoolship, In the next episode, "The Disturbing Dilemma of the Dysfunctional Doppelgangers", it is revealed his actions inadvertently caused the schoolship to crash-land on a planet called Utopiqua, which almost got everyone killed, he also shown no remorse for endangering everyone, instand he just tell Moxie, George and Harold to agree with him that this not being his fault.
- While he goes to help George and Harold to recuse Melvin form the Biglayns, he only did it just to be better than Moxie rather than heroic intentions.
- In "The Xtreme Xploits of the Xplosive Xmas", after George and Harold changed the play to being about Blissmass, Mr. Krupp forced the boys to clean the toilets in the bathroom.
Why Doesn't He Stand Out?[]
- Due to the comedic nature of the series, he and his actions are played for laughs too much which prevents him from being PE or NPE.
- His crimes of child abuse and endangerment pass the general baseline, but he still fails the heinous standards to Melvinborg, as he has done much worse.
- His split personality being the heroic Captain Underpants makes him On & Off.
- He is tragic, as in episode 11, it was revealed he was abused by his mother Bernice as a child. During a school talent show he competed in, Bernice passed out food to the audience and encouraged them to throw it at him as humiliation.
- While he asked Melvin to find a way to keep the other kids afraid of Bo Hweemuth in the Claylossus episode, but even he thought Melvin turning Bo into an actual monster was going too far. He only wanted to ruin Bo's reputation, not make him destroy the city, giving him some standards.
