| Dragon Hunters | comment |
A short (two seasons in France, one and a half in The United States) 2004 French cartoon series by the studio Futurikon that became a CGI film in 2008, created by Arthur J. Qwak. It also features a theme song done by The Cure.The story is set in a World in the Sky, originally intended to be our own, millennia into the future, but later Retconned as being a different universe entirely with a mythological (?) dragon having caused the literal Big Bang (however, one may not exclude the other). There's a lot of dragons around, ranging from minor nuisances to sources of mortal danger, and the two protagonists Gwizdo and Lian-Chu accompanied by their tiny pet dragon Hector are constantly searching for lucrative dragon-slaying jobs.The series was shown on Cartoon Network on the weekends in the U.S., but, as with a lot of their foreign-produced and acquired programming, received little to no promotion. This ensured that the series wouldn't last on the U.S airwaves. At the least, the movie was dubbed and released for cinemas around the world including the U.S.Examples: | |

In "The Return of Roger", the impostor Roger may be a conman, a coward, a moocher and a Miles Gloriosus, but when Zaza puts herself in danger against the dragon he brought to the Inn, he musters all the courage he has to save her. | |

No Accounting for Taste: The beautiful princess from "The High Life" seems to genuinely prefer the dorky, gap-toothed Gwizdo over Prince Granion. Gwizdo has no problem with this, until he learns that she's ready to give up her status to be with him. | |

Read the Fine Print: In "The Strange Taste of Cocomak", Lian-Chu and Hector arrange a contract to bring Gwizdo out of a deep depression. However, because neither Lian-Chu nor Hector can read, they overlook the fine print which says that the gold can only be handed over until the dragon hunters are dead. | |

Lovable Coward: Gwizdo. Borders sometimes on Dirty Coward when the Jerk side of his Jerk with a Heart of Gold personality gains the advantage. Also the fake Roger, who at first hides like a coward from the dragon but ultimately risks his life to save Zaza from him. | |

The Brute: Ulric the Toothless, Lian-Chu's replacement from "Farewell, Lian-Chu", fits the bill: he's big, strong and able to beat Dragons with just a wooden club, but is also a gluttonous, arrogant oaf who constantly bad-mouths Gwizdo and Lian-Chu and eventually tries to kill the former. | |

Heterosexual Life-Partners | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_1dfbbf31 | comment |
Heterosexual Life-Partners: Gwizdo and Lian-Chu. They've been best friends almost as long as they can remember (both were orphaned as kids and grew up together at the same orphanage). Lian-Chu is the only one who can make Gwizdo's conscience work, and without Gwizdo, Lian-Chu would always fight dragons for free and would probably have starved long ago. | |

Facial Dialogue: In "Gland of the Mimikar", when Gwizdo goes outside to sulk, he has an expression of "I want to help him but I don't know how. I can't do this on my own." He looks up at the moon with a desperate expression of "Is this a risk I'm willing to take?" Then when he hears Lian-Chu's voice coming from the inn, he has a look of "Oh, boy, he really needs help fast. I can't leave Lian-Chu like this." Again he has a sad and desperate look of "I'm not gonna like this", but then gets an expression of "I won't leave Lian-Chu like this." | |

Older Than They Look: Gwizdo is in his early 30's but looks like he's in his early to mid 20's or sometimes he even reminds one of an impatient teenager. His emotional development that of a twelve year old boy (for example, his experience of falling in love is minimal), but he's a shrewd businessman. | |

Adaptational Ugliness: In the animated series, Gwizdo is presented as charismatic and moderately attractive.

Disproportionate Retribution | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: After the main characters killed a dragon made out of fire, it exploded and covered a nearby village in a thin layer of ash. The people there apparently thought that was a good reason to try to kill them. | |

Exit, Pursued by a Bear | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_50c58a13 | comment |
Exit, Pursued by a Bear: Quite often, human villains who trick our heroes or try to kill them ends up face to face with the episode's dragon. Notable examples include "Little Rumble in the Prairie", "The Isle of Mists" and "The Shipwrecker". A small variation in "Farewell Lian-Chu" where Lian-Chu's Jerkass uncle and his assistant are stuck on the island with a furious Ulric banging on their door. | |

Unit Confusion | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_6112a91d | comment |
Unit Confusion: Apparently there was a decree 30 years ago that changed all units of measurement throughout the kingdom(s). Gwizdo and Lian-Chu once agreed to a contract for a dragon that was stated as being five feet high only to discover that the isolated people hadn't heard of that decree; thus the dragon was far larger than either of them expected it to be since they had been referring to the old feet and not the new feet. | |

Mr. Vice Guy: Gwizdo usually haggles with desperate villagers over the price of the Hunters' services or actually tries to swindle them. However, his schemes either go wrong or his good nature prevails, effectively preventing the team from getting rich and settling down. Crosses with Fatal Flaw in that he's also a coward, although most of the time he's the lovable rather than the dirty sort. Played for Drama in "Dragontagious", in which a dragon has knocked Lian-Chu's sword out of his hand and Lian-Chu is fighting for his life. Gwizdo is too terrified to even move (let alone give his friend his sword); he remains flat on the ground, hands on his ears, and cries. | |

Hard Cut: Several examples, but the most obvious is Zoe's Curse Cut Short (at least in original French) at the end of the film. Gwizdo, Lian-Chu, and Zoe are singing, and the camera pans toward Zoe. When Zoe's face almost fills the screen, the film immediately cuts to the end credits before she can finish the verse on what is presumably a very rude word. | |

Back from the Dead: The Salamango dragon can revive even if beheaded if he's slain for a trivial or worthless reason. The Rain Dragon will revive from its ashes if the blood of its killer is spilt on them. | |

Hypochondria: In the beginning of "The Cure", Lian-Chu expresses unusual fear for sickness, as they're about to visit a quarantine hospital, and freaks out when he comes in contact with some of the infected children. Upon learning that they're not contagious, he apologizes to them for his rude behavior. | |

Evil Counterpart: The minstrel in "Prince Charming!" is one to Gwizdo. He's a Hammy Herald who follows Prince Charming around and proudly boasts about him, but profits from the prince's popularity and keep the money all to himself being ready to betray his benefactor in case of the slightest failure, whereas Gwizdo, despite being greedy and treacherous, has a basically compassionate personality, shares the profits with Lian-Chu and supports him in any way he can. Moreover, there are many indirect signs that after successful hunts Gwizdo spends much less on his own needs and inventory than on the needs and inventory of his friend who needs abundant nutrition, high-quality weapons and yarn for knitting in his spare time. | |

Mood Whiplash: One occurs when Gwizdo, Lian-Chu, and Zoe crash-land on the surface at the End of the World, and Zoe fakes a Disney Death to find out if Gwizdo really cared for her. Then there's the ending: Lian-chu defeats the villain of the film, the World-Gobbler, while Gwizdo, Hector, and Zoe are terrified and trying to save their lives. The World-Gobbler explodes, Fade to White... And then there's floating bunnies everywhere, and Gwizdo, Lian-Chu, and Zoe planning their dream farm, all the while with bright green planetoids straight out of Super Mario Galaxy float around. The joke being that it confirms Gwizdo's earlier sarcastic rant about everything being just hunky-dory should Lian-Chu ever defeat the dragon. | |

Status Quo Is God: Sometimes the two hunters get to fly home with the reward money, but by the start of the next episode, they are invariably flat broke, but then again it probably wasn't enough to pay the rent. In the episode "Hell around Town", after the duo makes enough money to settle down in the city, Gwizdo loses all the money he earned in a scam. Faced with huge debts, they are forced to flee and by the end of the episode they are again doing chores. | |

Crosses with Fatal Flaw in that he's also a coward, although most of the time he's the lovable rather than the dirty sort. Played for Drama in "Dragontagious", in which a dragon has knocked Lian-Chu's sword out of his hand and Lian-Chu is fighting for his life. Gwizdo is too terrified to even move (let alone give his friend his sword); he remains flat on the ground, hands on his ears, and cries. | |

Youkai: "Billy Thoughnut" has a Dragon in the form of a shapeshifting Giant Spider who bears an overall striking resemblance to the youkai Jorogumo. Also, "The Master of the Dragon" has an oriental village under attack from a eight-headed, oriental-looking dragon called "Orodi". | |

Fade to White | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_c39dd4d | comment |
Then there's the ending: Lian-chu defeats the villain of the film, the World-Gobbler, while Gwizdo, Hector, and Zoe are terrified and trying to save their lives. The World-Gobbler explodes, Fade to White... And then there's floating bunnies everywhere, and Gwizdo, Lian-Chu, and Zoe planning their dream farm, all the while with bright green planetoids straight out of Super Mario Galaxy float around. The joke being that it confirms Gwizdo's earlier sarcastic rant about everything being just hunky-dory should Lian-Chu ever defeat the dragon. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The flying machine that Gwizdo, Lian-Chu, and Hector use to travel from place to place is called the St. George. Given the subject of the series, this a likely reference to the dragon-killing Catholic saint of the same name. "The Master of the Dragon" is a nod to the legend of Yamata-no-Orochi, including having a vaguely Japanese village, a eight-headed Dragon named Orodi and a young boy named (Sus)Anowo. The pirate in "Treasure Rock" is called Malo. | |

Cassandra Truth: At the end of "Don't Look Now", Jennyline thinks that Gwizdo tried to pawn rancid meat on her, but Gwizdo tries to explain that the meat was fresh when they brought it back but then they had to go out again to find the Petrovile cure. Given that he lies the rest of the time, she has a reason to not believe him. In "Dragon in the Hearth", the adults are initially dismissive of Zaza's claims that a shadow dragon is eating up the heat in the inn. | |

Taken for Granite: In a rather unusual case, Dungeon Dragons hunt by blocking their prey between their long limbs, neck and tail before turning to stone, trapping their victims in an unbreakable cage where they'll starve and dry to death. The dragon then turns back to flesh and eat the remains. | |

Our Dragons Are Different | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_d88e125e | comment |
Our Dragons Are Different: Oh yes. Gwizdo and Lian-Chu go after a number of different kinds of dragons over the course of the series, and no two are alike. With all the variety, it seems most likely that any creature that is threatening enough to make a village hire hunters to get rid of it is labeled a "dragon" for simplicity's sake. Noticeably, the Dragons who look more like traditional Oriental Dragons tend to be good and attack only when provoked. Meanwhile the Red Dragon looks like the standard western Dragon, including being intelligent, kidnapping princesses and stealing gold for his hoard. | |

Inelegant Blubbering: In "The Strange Taste of Cocomak", after reading the contract Lian-Chu gave him, an ugly gurn forms on Gwizdo's face as he struggles not to cry over it, but he gives in and sobs loudly. Lian-Chu has a Disney Death in "The Gland of the Mimikar". Gwizdo sobs with his face in his hands. When Lian-Chu comes to and Gwizdo looks up, his nose is running and tears are streaming from his eyes. | |

Kill It with Water: A number of Dragons are vulnerable to water, including naturally the ones made of fire or electrically-charged. Also, two dragons who are capable of mind control (Scarlet Slayer and Drago Menta) are vulnerable to water/snow, which disrupts their hypnosis. The Dogdalites could easily kill Gwizdo this way, just letting him drown in their Fountain of Youth without any help from his friends. | |

Monster of the Week: Each episode features a battle against a different "dragon"; by the end of the episode, the creature has been vanquished, proved harmless or freed.

Never Learned to Read | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_e9a3a1ed | comment |
Never Learned to Read: It makes sense for the setting and isn't really harped upon one way or the other, but few people actually know how to read in this society except those that can afford the schooling or have jobs that require it. For the most part being able to read or write isn't needed in order to function on a daily basis in this world. In fact most people that sign the contracts are literally just scratching an 'X' on the line because they can't write their own names. This is also why Gwizdo is invaluable as a teammate despite being basically useless in battle. On the rare occasions he isn't there to do it finding someone that can read for them is a mini-quest in and of itself. It's also the only reason the guys were even included in the episode "Treasure Rock". Zoria had to swing by the Inn to pick up the guys for the adventure because she needed someone that would willingly read a book for her (though he did try to charge her by the page). Lian-Chu was just a bonus for that one; Zoria specifically went there to pick up Gwizdo. | |

Power Pincers | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_f1725ad8 | comment |
Power Pincers: The Dragon who destroyed Lian-Chu's village sports a pair of massive, powerful pincers in lieu of arms. Lian-Chu manages to force it to flee by cutting the pincers' arms. | |

Suddenly Speaking | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_f1e6402d | comment |
Suddenly Speaking: Normally, dragons don't talk (Hector is a Speech-Impaired Animal), but the Salamango in "Who's Lost Their Head Now?" suddenly gloats to Lian-Chu in an ominous, deep voice, warning him that no matter how many times they kill him, he'll come back. It's unclear if Lian-Chu is hallucinating or if Salamango Dragons can actually talk. In the same episode, Gwizdo mentions offhand that dragons talk with their mouths full, but again it's unclear if Lian-Chu was just hearing things, while the Aratog can apparently talk, but only when in human form. The Red Dragon is also highly intelligent and capable of speech. | |

Body of Bodies | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_f22249e | comment |
Body of Bodies: The Dragon from "Dead Dragon Walking" looks like an amalgam of different dragons patched together... because it's actually a wooden mechanical dragon covered in the body parts of many slain dragons by the male inhabitants of Amazoonia in order to take their children away from their wives. | |

Mix-and-Match Critters | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_f5eda11 | comment |
Mix-and-Match Critters: A few dragons. The Snow Dragon looks part snake, part shark, the one in "For a Fistful of Veggies" resembles a giant frog with elephantine legs and a whale-like throat, while the one in "Baby in the Family" looks like a hybrid of mosquito and crocodile. | |

Beleaguered Assistant | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_f792ffe4 | comment |
Beleaguered Assistant: Hector does the majority of the grunt work for Gwizdo and Lian-Chu: carrying heavy loads of equipment and supplies, pedalling the St. George, sharpening weapons, and even (at one point) doing Gwizdo's laundry. While Lian-Chu seems appreciative of Hector's efforts and treats him with respect as a part of the team, Gwizdo often adds insult to injury by loading on the verbal abuse. Hector responds to Gwizdo by grumbling about the situation. | |

One to Million to One | |
| Dragon Hunters / int_f7d3dbb | comment |
One to Million to One: The "Red Swarm". Constituted of many small red flying creatures (looking like a cross of toad and bat), it can assemble into a large, fire-breathing dragon/ogre. Once, the dragon reconstitutes while the swarm is separated in several places; its head ends up stuck inside a barn, the body outside and one leg farther away, but still mobile and aware of its other body parts. | |

| Dragon Hunters / int_fc33ff16 | comment |
One-Winged Angel: The Scarlet Slayer from "Porkfester's Pigfarm Island" first appear as a grotesque blob with many tendrils and a massive maw on a thin neck. After they seemingly kill it, it turns out it was only its larval stage and proceeds to break the cocoon and turn into a larger wyvern-like monster with tentacles on its belly. | |

Brick Joke: At the beginning of the film's third act, Gwizdo snarks, "Oh, right, the great knight Lian-Chu is gonna say to the World Gobbler, 'I do not fear you, ugly thing', and poof! The World Gobbler's dead, and we're all happy as piss!... And then nature blossoms, everything's green, and there are little white bunnies flyin' all over the place!" That's exactly what happens at the end of the film. | |
