** Insane Gormiti Instagram memes[[labelnote:Explanation]]On several Italian meme pages, Gormiti are depicted in engaging in several weird or even illegal acts ranging from flashing and drug dealing all the way to rape and genocide. The main archetypes in these memes depict Gormiti as: [[TheStoner drug addicts]], [[AxCrazy insane criminals]] or even as [[ThoseWackyNazis full-blown fascists]] or [[RedScare communists]] [[/labelnote]]

* EnsembleDarkhorse: While every character haves fans, Forest People's The Thug got a small cult following due to his borderline absurd simplicity: in a world filled with detailed characters with elaborate names and specific abilities, he goes straight to the point with everything (basically a tree man wearing a leaf as a luchador mask whose combat tactics are just "fall down from a tree on your opponent and punch them over and over"). A line from the official magazine claiming that in his Mythos powerup form he could actually defeat Obscurio ended up amping his MemeticBadass status.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: DesignatedHero: The Old Sage in ''Legends''. Rather than the all-knowing BigGood of older iterations, this version of the character is a senile wizard who's openly racist against Volcano Gormiti and keeps calling them "stupid" and "unworthy" for no reason.

** The ''Legends'' take on Screaming Guardian. For years nothing more than a generic cackling henchman, the mini-series decided to make him a full-on GigglingVillain that acts as a CuddleBug to attack his enemies with his full arsenal of spikes and blades.



** MALDITO[[labelnote:Explanation]]The Spanish dub of the ''The Great Betrayal'' short features Kolossus appearing suddenly on the scene after Elios defeats Karrapax, waving his fist and yelling the aforemented line (that can be translated as "Curse you!") in a LargeHam vibe similar to the "SHOCKER!" scene from ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries''[[/labelnote]]

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: ''Everyone'' in the ''Legends'' series. When the series came out, a booklet released with the figures contains detailed bios of each character which feature very interesting reinterpretations of the characters (for example, Florus was presented as a mad scientist/alchemist figure who uses his poison-based powers to create both healing potions for his allies and dangerous concoctions to hurt the enemies, while Claw the Horrible is described as a war veteran suffering with [=PTSD=] ever since his best friend died in an attack). The promotional shorts ignore most of this bios (with the one big exception being Branchripper, whose introducion takes verbatim from the booklet bio) and presents most of the characters as one-dimensional {{Small Name Big Ego}}s.

* TheProblemWithLicensedGames: During the early days of the franchise, the franchise got three different videogame adaptations (''The Masters of Gorm Island'', ''Dark Fight'' and ''Ambush in the Valley'') which were released on the fairly obscure console Digiblast (albeit the third one also had a release as a Plug-and-play game under the title ''Game Arena''). The three games (a BeatEmUp and two more classic fighting games) all suffer from laggy movement, simplistic gameplay and copypasted content.

* TheyChangedNowItSucks: Gormiti Legends, the 2022 reboot, got some level of disdain:
** While most of the redesigns have been appreciated by fans, Tasarau having only two arms instead of the traditional four wasn't appreciated.
** The plot of the animated mini-series made to promote the collection involves the characters being thrown into a ''non-violent competition'' in order to decide who will rule on Gorm. As the franchise has always been associated with fighting, the change is very jarring.

Looks like you're made... of metal?" In [[LostInTranslation an untranslatable pun]], "Looks like you're made" in Italian is "Sembri fatto", which can also be intended as "[[TheStoner Looks like you're high]]" [[/labelnote]]

** NYEEEH[[labelnote:Explanation]]In the series 2 short ''The Great Eclipse'', Elios is given a very distinctive laughter that is supposed to mimic a red-tailed hawk screech. The way it's done is considered very humorous by the fans[[/labelnote]]

* HoYay: A bit of a given due to the mostly male-coded cast, but especially noticeable between [[FoeRomanceSubtext Obscurio and Luminos]]. Noticeably, when Luminos faints after giving all his energy to stop the Eye of Life from landing and destroying Gorm the first time, Obscurio refuses to let him die after his honorable sacrifice and [[VillainousRescue saves his life from a deadly fall], carrying his unconscious body down to safety [[BridalCarry bridal-style]] (which shocks even his allies). Their dynamic returning to TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou soon after nearly make Obscurio look like a {{Tsundere}}, especially when he helps Luminos ''a second time'' to protect the island, under the claim he wants to be the one to destroy it.
