4''Fruity Robo'' (果宝特攻) is a Chinese CGI animated children's cartoon by Guang Zhou [=BlueArc=] Culture Communications Company. The show stems from the cartoon series ''Fruity Musketeers'' (果冻三剑客) and currently has four seasons.

6The story follows the Fruity Robo/Fruity Agents, a group of six young fruits studying at Fruity Academy who fight to protect their World from various threats using the battle robots summoned from the Ancient Excalibur.
7----
8!!''Fruity Robo'' contains examples of:
9
10* ActionGirl: Although they’re a little inept compared to the guys, which sadly is the case in later seasons, the girls are not one bit slouch in combat.
11* AntiVillain: The villains in Season 1 aren’t actual 'villains' at all.
12* ArtShift: At the beginning of Season 3, the audiences are presented with 2D scenes, not the 3D style they’re all familiar with. Turns out those are just in-universe illustrations made by the Fruity Agents.
13* BadassAdorable: The whole cast, full stop. With the exception of some, they’re all round, cute, jelly-like blobs with characteristics of the fruit, and they ''freaking'' control Mechas armed to their teeth to beat the shit out of anything threatening their goal.
14* BadassTeacher: The teachers of the Agents are absolutely no slouch in combat with their robots, since they were formerly Agents themselves.
15* CastOfPersonifications: Everyone is a fruit with a face, but generally behaves like a human.
16* CombiningMecha: The Fruity Agents, Elder Fruity Agents and even Lord Pitaya‘s side all have one.
17* DeathIsCheap: Orangey and his friends have died around 3 times all over the series, but are resurrected each time safe and sound.
18* FishOutOfTemporalWater: In Season 3, Pineapplello gets sent to the Three Kingdoms era, with the basis of the plot being him trying to get back home.
19* FloatingLimbs: The various characters have floating hands.
20* GenderEqualEnsemble: The Fruity Agents comprises 3 male and 3 female in total, and they respectively become a couple.
21* GenerationXerox: Pineapplello got sent to the Three Kingdoms Era in Season 3, where he meets the team’s ancestors. They don’t look any different from their descendants at all.
22* GratuitousNinja: The rival academy established by Lord/Headmaster Pitaya is named Ninja Academy. Fittingly, the greater-scope villain of the season is an actual ninja, Ninja-Turtle-Man.
23* HeroWithBadPublicity: The Fruity Agents are framed for the death of their mentors and shunned by everyone in their world in Season 2, though the truth is they arrived at the scene right in time to witness Lord Pitaya killed Professor Nutty Maddo and Mistress Plum.
24* ImpossiblyGracefulGiant: All the robots are very large compared to the fruits riding them and seem to be made of heavy metal, but they’re also incredibly agile.
25* LoveTriangle:
26** Master Melon and Master Banana openly fights over Miss Mangosteen, which is PlayedForLaughs. She herself is just neutral and shows no sign of favoritism towards anyone.
27** A more dramatic one is Professor Nutty Maddo, Mistress Plum and Lord Pitaya. The difference is that Mistress Plum actually loves Professor Nutty Maddo, but she didn’t want to cause havoc between them so she rejected both of them, while Professor willingly stepped back for the same reason.
28* PowerTrio: Normally, the Fruity Agents don’t act in their full team but divided into male and female crew, 3 members each. The [[BadassTeacher teachers]] are also three.
29* ShoutOut: Ninja-Turtle-Man, the greater-scope antagonist of Season 2, wants to collect fruity denizens for him to chop up in a human's game. Ninja... fruit slashing... [[VideoGame/FruitNinja Well, sounds familiar?]]
30* TimeTravel: The plot of Season 3, when Pineapplello is transported back to the Three Kingdoms Era and struggles to find a way to return home.
31* TwoGuysAndAGirl: The teacher team of Master Melon, Master Banana and Miss Mangosteen.
