''GuardianFairyMichel'' (or just ''{{Michel}}'' in English) is a 2006 [[KoreanAnimation Korean animated series]] for children. It was released in English by the former ADVFilms.
Kim White is a pilot, and the daughter of a famous scientist, Dr. White. She's constantly at arms with the Black Hammer Gang, a group of thieves with {{Giant Robot}}s who'll go after anything so long as it vaguely resembles treasure. She goes after them one night after they steal a precious gem, and, in the ensuing air battle, the two sides end up lost in a gigantic cloud formation known as the Devil's Coast. Strange, glowing lights pull Kim deep into the heart of the storm, and with a terrified tremble, she fears it may be over...
...But she wakes up in a place with a clear sky, unhurt, beneath an enormous tree. A mysterious young boy greets her, and explains that she's landed on the mystical Sitel Island, home of the Tree of Life that keeps the balance of nature in check. Kim befriends the boy, and learns that his name is Michel. He's friend to the fairies of nature that live on the island. And Kim would be having a lovely time getting to know them, if she hadn't accidentally lead the Black Hammer Gang to the island with her. They love anything pretty, and the Tree of Life certainly counts. With their robots, they kidnap all of the fairies, causing the tree to wither--and, in the process, transform all of the fairies into monsters!
The tree is destroyed, but there is hope. The tree will regrow from its seed if all of the fairies can be rescued. The spirit of the tree gives Kim and Michel a special task: Rescue all of the fairies. Michel is the Guardian Fairy, and can use his fairy friends' powers once they've been rescued. Kim is given the Arrow of Light, which can revert monsters to their fairy forms. Together, they must save the fairies, stop the Black Hammer Gang, and restore the balance of nature!

'''This series contains examples of:'''
* AbsurdlyLargeSewer: The BigApplesauce features these in Episode 13.
* ActionGirl: Kim White: Sharpshooter, killer pilot, friend to fairies everywhere.
* AdjectiveNounFred: Although the English version just uses a plain old CharacterTitle.
* AdultFear: Poyo's innocent fascination with Kim's gun. Although it has slightly commedic overtones, Kim's concern over Poyo's playing with it is played quite straight. And with good reason.
* AllThatGlitters: Frequently serves as the {{Aesop}} to many episodes. The Black Hammers go hunting "treasures," as they assume all treasures are wealth-based. However, the "treasures" either end up being something they can't really spend ([[spoiler: like seeds that can grow in any soil]]), or non-material things such as the love of family or the beauty of a city.
* AmusementParkOfDoom: The amusement park in episode 14. It's probably a nice enough place in the day, but Kim's there at night, and happens to be facing off against the Fairy of Light and Dark.
* BaseOnWheels: The good guys have Sitel, and the bad guys have their flying castle thing. All the better to chase each other around the world with.
* BigApplesauce: The city in Episode 13 isn't named, but is at the very least a New York {{Expy}} if nothing else.
* BigBadassWolf: [[spoiler: Queen's true form.]]
* [[{{Hammerspace}} Black Hammerspace]]: Salome makes sure her gang lives up to its name with her hammer-from-nowhere.
* BlowYouAway: Baron, the wind fairy.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy
* CityOfCanals: Preccia, an obvious Venice {{Expy}} (it even played home to "Parco Molo"). However, it's been consumed by trash and the canals stink, which is unusually realistic where this trope is generally concerned.
* ConspicuousCGI: Honeybee and the Black Hammers' base are CGI, but they're cel-shaded so they usually blend in. However, in at least on episode, the inside of the Black Hammers' base is all none-too-subtle CGI.
* CoolGun: Kim's Mirage Blaster, with the power to turn into a cool ''crossbow.''
* CoolPlane: The Honeybee.
* CreepyChild: When Kim first meets him, Michel's supernatural calm is a little bit unnerving. He becomes more energetic later on, though.
* CucumberFacial: Lady Salome puts the cucumbers everywhere ''but'' her eyes, oddly.
* DarkActionGirl: Lady Salome.
* DoAnythingRobot: The Honeybee, while more of a plane that a robot, has pretty much whatever powers are needed for the plot.
* DressingAsTheEnemy
* EnemyMine: [[spoiler: Episode 14, with both Salome and Michel kidnapped.]]
* EvilMakeover: The cute fairies get transformed into huge monsters in their evil forms.
* FiveBadBand:
** BigBad: Lady Salome
** TheDragon: Boogy
** TheBrute: Woogy
** TheEvilGenius: Meggi
** TheDarkChick: Biam
* FusionDance: By fusing with the fairies, Michel gains their powers and then some, showing exactly why he's the guardian.
* GadgeteerGenius: Dr. White was one. So is the EvilGenius Meggi.
* GenderBlenderName: "Michel" is a perfectly respectable male name, but it's pronounced the same as the female name "Michelle," which is more well-known in English.
* GodGuise: The Black Hammers pretend to be messengers of a rain god to one highly-secluded village. Their guise actually takes on some legitimacy, thanks to the fact that they can use fairies to summon dark clouds, lightning, and rain.
* GoldfishPoopGang: The Black Hammer Gang.
* GottaCatchEmAll: Gotta rescue all the fairies! Or else, the WorldTree can't be renewed...
* GravityScrew: Salome expresses surprise that there even ''is'' a gravity fairy. And yes, it causes gravity to turn wonky. [[spoiler: Which has been overtaxing marathon runners for several months in a certain village, as it turns out.]]
* GrumpyBear: Biam. ''"There's a black sheep in every family."''
* HuskyRusskie: Ian and his sister in episode 7.

* InMediasRes: We begin with the Black Hammers stealing a diamond from a museum, and things take off from there.
* InterspeciesRomance: Sir Brown the fairy fell in love with a human princess. Thanks to a war, it never worked out.
* IWillWaitForYou: Sir Brown waited so long for his beloved princess, he turned into a tree. A tree of ''death.''
* LetsGetDangerous: A ''villainous'' version with the Black Hammer Gang. They're comedic, and ''almost'' seem like they're going to end up in IneffectualSympatheticVillain territory... until it turns out they're not that ineffectual.
* LevelAte: One episode features a city founded by a gourmand, and it looks like food.
* MagicFeather: A variation in one episode. The people of a certain village believe that a floating golden feather in a glass orb helps the people of their village become great runners, and when the feather falls, the people begin to run out of energy and lose their ability to run. [[spoiler: The variation comes from the fact that while the feather falling and the people failing to run ''are'' connected, it's a third, external force causing it: The manipulation of gravity. The feather is implicitly magic, but it was gravity's fault.]]
* MasterOfIllusion: The illusion fairy, who resembles a manta ray. Effects range from LotusEaterMachine to tricking Kim into [[spoiler: nearly destroying Honeybee]].
* MessageInABottle: A variation: The character sending them isn't deserted, just lonely because he lives in an isolated place.
* MonsterOfTheWeek
* {{Namedar}}: The little girl who found the Winter fairy just happened to give her her real name: Queen.
* NeverSayDie: Averted, but with a [[ZigZaggedTrope really odd twist.]] One episode features an extremely FatBastard who collapses in the middle of a giant gluttonous meal. The episode doesn't shy away from saying that he's dying, and in fact revolves around his dying request--but rather than give a realistic cause for his collapse, like heart disease or diabetes, he's said to be dying of an "overworked stomach."
* NoblewomansLaugh: Lady Salome's. "Ooh hoo hoo hoo!"
* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: Mahamina has a vaguely Middle Eastern accent, but her brother has none at all, despite them being from the same tribe.
* OpeningNarration: Kim describes the story so far, maybe a legend relevant to the plot, and, in the opening episode, the legend of the Tree of Life.
* ThePhoenix: The focus of the seventh episode is an aging Russian man bent on seeing the Phoenix.
* PokemonSpeak: The only thing Poyo can say: "Old lady!"
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Michel appears to be a young boy, but he's as old as any other fairy, which makes him pretty much the same age as the Earth. Kid's got time on his hands.
* RealMenWearPink: Woogy attempts to take up knitting. [[spoiler: [[SubvertedTrope He doesn't actually like it, as it turns out.]]]]
* ReluctantMadScientist: Dr. White, whose greatest fear was that his inventions would be used for evil. Sadly, he was right.
* RescueRomance: Salome tries to invoke this in one episode in hopes of getting some treasure. It doesn't exactly work as planned.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Poyo, who sort of looks like a yellow winged dog/deer hybrid. And for that matter, all of the fairies.
* SayMyName: Michel shouts the names of his fairy friends to summon them and make himself transform.
* SecondaryCharacterTitle: Although Michel has the cool superpowers, the protagonist is mostly Kim.
* SnapBack: After the good guys rescued him, Twisty somehow ended up back in the Black Hammer Gang's hands before Episode 13, just in time to become that episode's monster. How it happened is never explained, especially since Twisty was shown in background shots on Sitel prior to that.
* SpringIsLate: ...Because no one showed up to tell the winter fairy winter was over.
* SuperMode: [[spoiler: Poyo's adult form as the Fairy of Spring.]]
* TeamPet: Poyo for the good guys, and Biam for the bad guys.
* ThisIsADrill: The Honeybee has a drill mode. No, it ''doesn't'' really make sense.
* ThisIsReality: When the Black Hammers learn that there's a [[spoiler: time machine]], Boogy remarks that "[[spoiler: Time machines]] only exist in cartoons! They're not real!" Biam then retorts, asking if that's [[ArbitrarySkepticism just like fairies, then.]] Boogy is forced to concede.
* TotemPoleTrench: Michel and [[VictimOfTheWeek Joe]] pull one off in episode 13.
* TomboyishName: The female fairy of the wind is named Baron.
* TransformationTrinket: A ''living'' one in the fairies, whose powers Michel borrows and amplifies.
* TurtleIsland: Sitel is a fairy who happens to be one of these. ''And'' he can fly.
* VillainSong: The end credits song is the Black Hammer Gang's theme, sung by cute chibi-versions of themselves. [[GoKartingWithBowser With the fairies watching, of course.]]
* WeWantOurJerkBack: [[spoiler: Boogy, Woogy, and Meggi just don't feel motivated without Salome harping on them at every turn.]]
* WingedHumanoid: Michel in his powered-up forms grows wings.
* WinterRoyalLady: Although she's not royalty and doesn't look like one (she resembles a fox), the winter fairy is nonetheless named Queen, probably due to this trope.
* WorldHealingWave: Frequently, whenever a fairy is rescued.
* WorldTree: The Tree of Life isn't a ''perfect'' example as it isn't gigantic, but it does fit from a ''magical'' standpoint.
* WrenchWench: Kim, who, while not her GadgeteerGenius father, knows how to fix 'em.

* InterspeciesRomance: Sir Brown the fairy fell in love with a human princess. Thanks to a war, it never worked out.
* IWillWaitForYou: Sir Brown waited so long for his beloved princess, he turned into a tree. A tree of ''death.''
* LetsGetDangerous: A ''villainous'' version with the Black Hammer Gang. They're comedic, and ''almost'' seem like they're going to end up in IneffectualSympatheticVillain territory... until it turns out they're not that ineffectual.
* LevelAte: One episode features a city founded by a gourmand, and it looks like food.
* MagicFeather: A variation in one episode. The people of a certain village believe that a floating golden feather in a glass orb helps the people of their village become great runners, and when the feather falls, the people begin to run out of energy and lose their ability to run. [[spoiler: The variation comes from the fact that while the feather falling and the people failing to run ''are'' connected, it's a third, external force causing it: The manipulation of gravity. The feather is implicitly magic, but it was gravity's fault.]]
* MasterOfIllusion: The illusion fairy, who resembles a manta ray. Effects range from LotusEaterMachine to tricking Kim into [[spoiler: nearly destroying Honeybee]].
* MessageInABottle: A variation: The character sending them isn't deserted, just lonely because he lives in an isolated place.
* MonsterOfTheWeek
* {{Namedar}}: The little girl who found the Winter fairy just happened to give her her real name: Queen.
* NeverSayDie: Averted, but with a [[ZigZaggedTrope really odd twist.]] One episode features an extremely FatBastard who collapses in the middle of a giant gluttonous meal. The episode doesn't shy away from saying that he's dying, and in fact revolves around his dying request--but rather than give a realistic cause for his collapse, like heart disease or diabetes, he's said to be dying of an "overworked stomach."
* NoblewomansLaugh: Lady Salome's. "Ooh hoo hoo hoo!"
* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: Mahamina has a vaguely Middle Eastern accent, but her brother has none at all, despite them being from the same tribe.
* OpeningNarration: Kim describes the story so far, maybe a legend relevant to the plot, and, in the opening episode, the legend of the Tree of Life.
* ThePhoenix: The focus of the seventh episode is an aging Russian man bent on seeing the Phoenix.
* PokemonSpeak: The only thing Poyo can say: "Old lady!"
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Michel appears to be a young boy, but he's as old as any other fairy, which makes him pretty much the same age as the Earth. Kid's got time on his hands.
* RealMenWearPink: Woogy attempts to take up knitting. [[spoiler: [[SubvertedTrope He doesn't actually like it, as it turns out.]]]]
* ReluctantMadScientist: Dr. White, whose greatest fear was that his inventions would be used for evil. Sadly, he was right.
* RescueRomance: Salome tries to invoke this in one episode in hopes of getting some treasure. It doesn't exactly work as planned.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Poyo, who sort of looks like a yellow winged dog/deer hybrid. And for that matter, all of the fairies.
* SayMyName: Michel shouts the names of his fairy friends to summon them and make himself transform.
* SecondaryCharacterTitle: Although Michel has the cool superpowers, the protagonist is mostly Kim.
* SnapBack: After the good guys rescued him, Twisty somehow ended up back in the Black Hammer Gang's hands before Episode 13, just in time to become that episode's monster. How it happened is never explained, especially since Twisty was shown in background shots on Sitel prior to that.
* SpringIsLate: ...Because no one showed up to tell the winter fairy winter was over.
* SuperMode: [[spoiler: Poyo's adult form as the Fairy of Spring.]]
* TeamPet: Poyo for the good guys, and Biam for the bad guys.
* ThisIsADrill: The Honeybee has a drill mode. No, it ''doesn't'' really make sense.
* ThisIsReality: When the Black Hammers learn that there's a [[spoiler: time machine]], Boogy remarks that "[[spoiler: Time machines]] only exist in cartoons! They're not real!" Biam then retorts, asking if that's [[ArbitrarySkepticism just like fairies, then.]] Boogy is forced to concede.
* TotemPoleTrench: Michel and [[VictimOfTheWeek Joe]] pull one off in episode 13.
* TomboyishName: The female fairy of the wind is named Baron.
* TransformationTrinket: A ''living'' one in the fairies, whose powers Michel borrows and amplifies.
* TurtleIsland: Sitel is a fairy who happens to be one of these. ''And'' he can fly.
* VillainSong: The end credits song is the Black Hammer Gang's theme, sung by cute chibi-versions of themselves. [[GoKartingWithBowser With the fairies watching, of course.]]
* WeWantOurJerkBack: [[spoiler: Boogy, Woogy, and Meggi just don't feel motivated without Salome harping on them at every turn.]]
* WingedHumanoid: Michel in his powered-up forms grows wings.
* WinterRoyalLady: Although she's not royalty and doesn't look like one (she resembles a fox), the winter fairy is nonetheless named Queen, probably due to this trope.
* WorldHealingWave: Frequently, whenever a fairy is rescued.
* WorldTree: The Tree of Life isn't a ''perfect'' example as it isn't gigantic, but it does fit from a ''magical'' standpoint.
* WrenchWench: Kim, who, while not her GadgeteerGenius father, knows how to fix 'em.
