Context YMMV / Trollz

Go To

1* AdaptationDisplacement: More people remember the show than the toy line that came with it.
2* FanPreferredCutContent:
3** It's generally agreed that it was hard to take Simon seriously as a villain. Because of this, some fans wish the series went with the original idea of having a witch as the villain.
4** While unconfirmed, early concept art suggests the male characters would have been more prominent, which also may have been a good idea.
5* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: The series had a fair amount of success in the UK.
6* HilariousInHindsight: Characters named after gemstones? WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse must be copying this gimmick. It certainly doesn't help that Steven's gem is placed in the exact same position as the Trollz (belly button) or that the powers are initially activated by glowing--meaning roughly the first two minutes of both show's pilots are nearly identical in events.
7* HoYayShipping: Onyx/Topaz or Ruby/Amethyst.
8%%* JerkassWoobie: Ruby during the arc where her friends turn evil and leave her all sad and lonely.
9* LauncherOfAThousandShips: Topaz has been paired up with Simon, Jasper and Onyx. Ruby has also been paired with Rock, Simon and the other members of the BFFL.
10* RetroactiveRecognition: The theme song is performed by The Valli Girls. Two members from that band would eventually form Music/{{HAIM}}.
11* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot:
12%%** There was a lot more the writers could've done with the story arc where the girls turned evil.
13** On the website there is mention of Black Amber, implied to be very bad stuff, and how it contributed to how things turned out--Simon was said to have unleashed it, almost destroying the planet. It's never mentioned in the show.
14%%* UglyCute: Sandstone the ogre.
15%%* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The effects used when casting spells.
