Trollz/YMMV

• Adaptation Displacement: More people remember the show than the toy line that came with it.
• Crowning Moment of Awesome:
  • The arc where the girls turn evil, letting Simon take over Trollzopolis. He pulled off quite a Xanatos Gambit.
  • The girls stopping the Trollhiti volcano from erupting in the last episode.
• Crowning Moment of Funny: In "Onyx's Gem", Onyx runs off in the middle of practice for the talent show. Amethyst tries to call her house and gets the answering machine.

Onyx: Hey. You ever feel like a freak talking to a machine? Don't let that stop you. *BEEP*

• Crowning Moment of Heartwarming:
  • Sapphire taught a friendly ogre, Sandstone, how to read. In return he taught her how to swim.
  • Rock got one when, despite not having magic, he told Ruby to stand back and let him take care of Simon. Cause he's her boyfriend.
    • In a later episode, Rock did defeat Simon.
  • The girls braving the Haunted Woods to rescue a goblin toy a senior citizen lost in the woods years ago.
  • Ruby's hair is burnt and frizzed by the volcano, so the others wear matching hairstyles so she doesn't feel odd.
• Crowning Music of Awesome:
  • The songs throughout the series, as performed by The Valli Girls, are both awesome and heartwarming.
  • The opening/ending theme, "It's A Hair Thing".
  • "Best Friends for Life" is this and a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming.
  • "The Power of Five".
  • Don't know the name, but the song heard at the beginning of the Middle Ages story arc, describing Simon's plan to turn back time.
  • In "New Girl In Town", the song when Garnet speeds off with Amethyst and friends. It reveals a bit ahead of time that Garnet is Simon in disguise.
  • The Trollhiti song! This is one of the few songs to be played fully in an episode, with little talking over it.
  • And the "Best Friends for Life" reprise at the end of the show.
  • The Italian theme song.
• Ear Worm: The theme song.
• Fridge Brilliance: Why, when the Power of Ten is used on Simon and Snarf, do they not go away for good? Because, as revealed later, Zirconia and Spinell's powers had been drained during their imprisonment, so the spell wouldn't be at full strength.
• Fridge Logic: So the Ancients were around the same age as the girls when they fought Simon 3,000 years ago. That means Zirconia and Spinell were either married as teens, or they were married after being transformed.
• Nightmare Fuel:
  • In one episode, the girls and boys are attacked by ghost dogs when the bus breaks down. The dogs, being ghosts, are intangible enough to phase through walls. They can still eat you.
  • The girls having to face a cyclops...without their magic. If they failed, the Ancients would die.
  • The walking trees in "The Big Test".
  • The Trollz turning evil in "When Good Girls Go Bad". Really ramped up by them freezing Coral, Opal, and Jade and manipulating them like puppets.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: There was a lot more the writers could've done with the story arc where the girls turned evil.
  • On the website there is mention of Black Amber (implied to be very bad stuff) and how it contributed to how things turned out. It is never mentioned in the show.
    • Specifically, Simon was said to have unleashed Black Amber, almost destroying the planet.
• Ugly Cute: Sandstone the ogre.
• Unfortunate Implications: Garnet, who is supposed to be black, is evil. Okay, Ruby is actually half black, but very light-skinned, which makes this even worse.
  • Shale and Mica start out evil, too, but they reform.
  • Thinking about it more, Garnet may have been like that as a counterpoint to Ruby. Doing everything a bit further than Ruby normally would, including appearance. Note her hair was darker, too.
• Visual Effects of Awesome: The effects used when casting spells.
