Based on the very popular Italian toy line of ''[[Gormiti]]'', '''''Gormiti: The Lords of Nature Return!'''''
Mostly for children, but still good fun and worth a look, provided you don't expect too deep a storyline. Not to be confused with [[Wallace and Gromit|Gromit]]. It ''definitely'' shouldn't be confused with ''[[Gor]]'' either.
The series ran from 2008 to 2010.
{{tropelist}}
* [[Achilles' Heel]]: Magmion's weak point is exactly that.▼
▲* [[Achilles Heel]]: Magmion's weak point is exactly that.
* [[Action Girl]]: Jessica is just as competent as her male friends.
* [[Adults Are Useless]]
* [[Alas, Poor Villain]]: {{spoiler|Magmion doesn't die, but it's hard not to feel sorry for him when, after working so faithfully for Obscurio, his reward is to get his power drained in order to fuel the newly-awakened Incubion and Oneiron.}}
* [[All There in the Manual]]: The full story of Gorm and its warrior races can be found in the toy line and related comics.
** The comic has a different vision of the series. The comic version have more toy-accurate character design(lacking the pupils in the eyes of every character except for Razzle and giving to the Lord of Air a less human appearance, with purple face and no nose), but also have a complete different storyline and way different versions of Season 2 and 3's first episodes. Is also remarkable that, while in the Cartoon series leaving the Keeper's Primal Pad or switching it with another one of the kids is prohibited and dangerous, in a comic Toby and Jessica switch for three times their place.
* [[All Your Powers Combined]]: {{spoiler|In the last episode of Season 2, to destroy the Magor Codex.}}
* [[
* [[An Ice Person]]: Jessica gets ice-based powers in Season 2. Toby does as well in the beginning of Season 3.
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Nick. Smartest member of the team, he's also a powerhouse when he morphs into the Lord of Earth.
* [[Big Bad]]: Magmion and Orrore Profondo in the first season (Lavion tries, but [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain|he just can't get the job done]]...), Obscurio in the second, Magor in the third.
* [[Big Good]]: The Supreme Luminescent in Season 2, the Wise Old One in Season 3.
* {{spoiler|[[Bittersweet Ending]]: Season 2 is a mild case. Gorm is saved and Obscurio is defeated, but the Supreme Luminescent had to give his life in order for that to happen. Though, it's implied that he will be reborn someday.}}
Line 37 ⟶ 36:
** Supreme Luminiscent: "Admirate the power of Light!"
** Razzle: "Boys, there are troubles on Gorm." and "That's you, kid." (The phrase becames less frequent in later episodes where the kids get it by themselves, and disppears in Season 3 when he becames the Wise Old One's pet.)
** Lavion: [[
* [[Cool Old Guy]]: The Wise Old One.
* [[
* [[Cthulhumanoid]]: Orrore Profondo.
* [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]]: In Season 3, the kids need to be in contact with a pure form of their respective elements to transform. Magor's plans usually involve contaminating one such element to keep the heroes from transforming...
Line 61 ⟶ 60:
* [[Hero-Killer]]: He hasn't killed anyone (yet), but Magor certainly doesn't screw around!
* {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]: The Supreme Luminescent in the last episode.}}
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Well... Nick is [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Yugi]], Toby is [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|Chazz]] and [[Batman: The Animated Series|Obscurio]] [[Justice League (animation)|is]] [[The Batman|fucking]] [[Batman: The Brave And The Bold|Batman]].
** Forest warrior Letal Whip is [[Dragonball Z|Vegeta]].
* [[Idiot Hero]]: Toby, though he does have his moments of brilliance.
Line 77 ⟶ 76:
* [[Mons]]: The Ancient Guardians could be considered this in Season 1, then in Season 2 they got [[Suddenly Voiced|ability to speak]] and became more like... [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Guardians of Gorm's most ancient secrets.]]
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Obscurio crossed this when {{spoiler|he had Oneiron and Incubion drain Magmion - his most unconditionally loyal servant - of his power and abandoned him.}}
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: What the Winds of Darkness can do to you is... quite unsettling: {{spoiler|the victim's eyes go blank and their pupils are substituted with live flames, which obstruct their vision more and more, until their eyes are simply glowing embers}}. It's... disquieting to see.
* [[Older Than They Look]]: Razzle - he's possibly a [[Time Abyss]], if the comics are anything to go by.
* [[One
* [[The Plan]]: Magmion kicks off the second season with one that works almost perfectly {{spoiler|and brings Obscurio one step closer to being unsealed.}}
* [[Playing with Fire]]: Most Volcano Gormiti. Some of them, however, have some much less obvious powers...
* [[Power Armor]]: The Golden Armors in Season 2. Also in Season 3 one of the new powers of the Earth Lord is ''summoning a stone armor to protect himself, then shredding it and throwing the pieces towards the enemy''. Awesome.
* [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]]: Moloch, Armageddon, Cyclops and Xylos, working under Magmion in Season 2.
* [[Rube Goldberg Device]]: Episode 4 shows that both Toby and his dad can make pranks in this way.
* [[Save Both Worlds]]: What happens on Gorm may have aftereffects that manifest on Earth.
Line 98 ⟶ 97:
* [[Team Pet]]: Razzle.
* [[The Kid with the Remote Control]]: One of the kids always has to remain on Earth and be the Keeper in order for the others to be able to go back and forth and summon their powers.
** Season 3 does away with the Keeper, but the kids still need to be together to transform.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Thought Ripper has two different voices in his two appareances. Also Jessica's voice suddendly changed in two episodes of Season 2, passing from sounding like [[Vampire Knight|Shizuka]] to sounding like [[Transformers Animated|Blackarachnia]].
* [[The Starscream]]: Burning Maul has been cast out of the Volcano tribe for this reason.
* [[Time Skip]]: One year passes between Season 2 and Season 3
* [[Token Minority]]: Lucas is the only black kid in the group.
* [[Transformation Sequence]]: Every character has 3-4 variations. In the second part of Season 1 they start to spice them up inserting random [[Stock Footage]] from various episodes. In Episode 3 of Season 1 their powers went down and part of Nick's sequence is played... backwards.
* [[Ultimate Evil]]: Obscurio in Season 1. Season 2 shows normally Obscurio and makes Magor the new [[Ultimate Evil]]. Then Magor appears in Season 3.
* [[Villain Decay]]: Orrore. He came across as a serious threat in the toyline, but in the show he seems to have lost much of his competence.
** Armageddon was an almost unstoppable [[Big Bad]] in the toyline, but here, he's just one of Magmion's minions. He's still powerful, but nowhere near the unholy terror he used to be.
** Lavion went from [[Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant]] to a [[
* [[Wake Up, Go to School, Save the World]]
* [[We Have Reserves]]: Lavor's attitude towards his underlings is... less than stellar.
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: The Air Gormiti can get like this at times, using debatable means to protect their own people. {{spoiler|In the backstory, Orrore Profondo once used this trait to manipulate them into a [[Face Heel Turn]], causing a huge schism in the tribes.}}
* [[Worf Had the Flu]]: Some people are already crying [[Faux Action Girl]] after Jessica's somewhat lackluster performance in one of the latest episodes. Despite the fact that, you know, {{spoiler|Obscurio's spell had greatly weakened the Air people, and despite the fact that she ''still'' managed to outsmart and defeat ''Armageddon'' in the end}}. [[Real Women Never Wear Dresses|Girls just can't win, can they?]]
