Clueless Aesop: Oh boy. The special tries to teach kids that positive thinking and being happy will solve your problems away. While it's not a bad thing, pressuring this isn't going to make things better. |

comment |
Bittersweet Ending: In-Universe. The story Landon tells Emery-Elizabeth ends like this. Charlatan is defeated and Princess Electra gets back her smile, saving the kingdom. However, Snowden melts. Averted for the actual special, which has a Happy Ending, as Snowden turns out to be real and still alive, and Emery makes a full recovery. |

Covers Always Lie: Snowden hardly resembles what he looks like on the cover. The cover also suggests that the film will have much higher quality animation. |

What Happened to the Mouse? |
| | Magic Gift of the Snowman / int_863fa679 |
comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: A literal example. Charlatan has a pink pet mouse. It disappears after Snowden's head bounces off of it, leaving it uncertain if it escaped or perished in the fire at the end. |

comment |
Soap Opera Disease: Emery has a fatal disease and one of the symptoms is paraplegia. Modern medicine can't do much to treat it, but people who have the disease can fully recover if they want to recover enough. When Emery recovers, the symptoms disappear overnight, including her paraplegia. |

You Are Better Than You Think You Are: Emery is certain that her being in a wheelchair will prohibit her from being able to save Princess Electra, a thought Landon kindly and Snowden not-so-kindly reject. |

Non-Standard Character Design: Most of the characters have cute anime esque designs except for the villain Charlatan with his bulging bug eyes, wrinkled skin, bony face, long crooked teeth, and claw like hands. |

Artistic License – Physics: Snowden doesn't melt while traveling through a sunny, spring area. Possibly justified via it being in Electra's castle, and thus, him being protected by the surrounding magic. |
