W.I.T.C.H. (2004)	comment	W.I.T.C.H. is a Magical Girl fantasy animated series produced by French studio SIP Animation in close collaboration with Disney and its former global action brand Jetix (which also aired on ABC Family and ABC Kids in the US). Based on the comic book of the same name, the cartoon serves as a distilled and re-imagined version of the comic's first two story arcs, tying them together into one central and connected plot-line. The adaptation is perhaps best known for having Gargoyles creator Greg Weisman serve as showrunner during its second season, replacing writing duo Andrew Nicholls and Darrell Vickers.On the distant world of Meridian, a tyrannical young man named Phobos has acquired the royal throne and begun his crusade to spread his reign to all other worlds in the universe. In order to counter his ambitions, a magical wall known as the Veil was created in order to seal Meridian away from the rest of the universe. However, over time, the Veil has begun to deteriorate, creating tears in the fabric of space that serve as portals allowing free passage between Meridian and the town of Heatherfield on Earth.In response, five young girls from Earth are recruited to become the new Guardians of the Veil, a group of super-powered defenders who are tasked with keeping order in the universe. The five girls (Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia and Hay Lin, whose initials spell "WITCH") are joined by a Meridian rebel named Caleb who alerts them that Prince Phobos isn't just a tyrant, but an usurper to a matriarchal throne: the rightful heir is hidden somewhere on Earth. And so their mission is clear: close the portals and figure out the identity of Phobos's younger sister before his minions do. But as they, the rebel forces, and an odd goblin-like smuggler named Blunk work together to search for the rightful heir to the throne, the Guardians slowly begin to learn that other forces are at work behind the scenes, manipulating and coercing various events involving the war on Meridian, and that everything and everyone they encounter is not what they appear to be.Despite laying the groundwork for an adaptation of the comic's third story arc, and relatively high ratings on various Jetix blocks and networks, producer and investor disinterest resulted in the show's second season being its last.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_10ad7cfe	comment	Elemental Baggage: Zig-zagged. The Guardians can create and manipulate their elements at will, except for Cornelia, who depends on a preexisting source of earth or plant life. This becomes a plot point in two episodes: In "N is for Narcissist", the battle takes place in Kandrakar, with Cornelia being unable to do anything because, in her own words, "plants don't grow in thin air". Then when the Guardians fight indoors at a swimming pool in "V is for Victory", Cornelia can't do anything except cover her opponent with algae from the pool.

The second season introduces the concept of Altermeres, which are what happens when an Astral Drop is given a life and soul of their own via Quintessence. The death of Will's Altermere at Nerissa's hands is treated as a tragic thing, and Yan Lin's Altermere ultimately survives and is introduced to Hay Lin's parents as Yan Lin's "long-lost twin sister Mira" in the finale.

The Guardians were forced to cooperate with Phobos in order to defeat Nerissa. Subverted in that they never planned on him holding to his word and were in fact relying on him betraying them for their plan to work.

"W is for Witch" has Napoleon the cat talking about how Halloween is important, and we see one kid with a mask that vaguely resembles Hudson from Gargoyles — especially since Napoleon is voiced by Hudson's VO Ed Asner. Obviously it's an adaptation, but the show is full of references to the comics even for those aspects that were Adapted Out or downplayed. Phobos's Whisperers are one example; Irma's question under He Who Fights Monsters is another.

Will comes this close to becoming like Nerissa when her paranoia over yet another sudden change in her family life on Earth (not to mention the events of the preceding episodes) coincides with Kadma encouraging her to absorb the Heart of Meridian and forcibly become Elyon's "regent". Her friends lampshade it throughout the episode and try to pull her back, which only strengthens her resolve to prove all of them wrong until she snaps out of it at the last possible moment.

But even then, their eventual relationship is by far the sweetest in the show. True to the trope, both Big Bads take advantage of her disposition (on separate occasions)... only to learn that breaking the cutie isn't as easy as it seems.

In the second season, it's explained she had no element of her own because some of the Guardians' power was being used to keep the Veil up. When the Veil is lowered, she gains a new Psychic Power (alongside the other girls) as well as her own element, Quintessence.

And it's not just the Non-Lethal Warfare - though it does often seem to be invoked from the Guardians' side, to the point that they Save the Villain mooks multiple times in the first season alone (and benefit from it). Only two characters are depicted being actually killed - Will's Altermere in "H is for Hunted" and Cassidy in the backstory (both by Nerissa). In the first season, Meridian has been under the thumb of an oppressive tyrant for over a decade. Yet hope and optimism are in the air, not only among the regular inhabitants but among La RÃ©sistance as well - which actually grows stronger leading up to the finale, despite many setbacks. In the Darker and Edgier second season, it's outright lampshaded. When a group of villains goes as far as to attack the heroines on Earth (including their families), and one of them explicitly goes out of his way to make said heroines hate him on purpose, their battle ends with this:

However, Earth would still be endangered due to portals opening between the two worlds, enabling Phobos's forces to manifest on the heroes' hometown. The second season ramps up the Sliding Scale of Muggle Involvement, leaving the Guardians increasingly playing defense even on their own turf. In part because the Veil is now down, and also because Nerissa's goals include stealing Will's Heart and taking over the whole universe. Come the finale and the newly empowered villain Cedric outright decides to attack their hometown on Earth, in full view of everyone.

To make matters worse, Hay Lin is tricked into believing her grandma has betrayed her and joined Nerissa's side. Believing she is hated by the two people she loved the most, Hay Lin sinks into depression and spends the majority of the episode crying.

The most obvious example is the Heart of Kandrakar, the artifact that empowers the titular heroines' elemental abilities. Loss of access to the Heart greatly decreases their magical powers. Also present in the series, and possessing similar powers, are: The Heart of Meridian, Elyon Brown, who rules that world and can directly channel its magic. The ability is stolen and placed inside a jewel called the Seal of Nerissa, allowing Nerissa to do the same. The Heart of Zamballa, possessed by the ruler of the planet Zamballa and repository of that world's power. Stealing it from Kadma and absorbing it into the Seal of Nerissa greatly increased Nerissa's power. The Heart of Earth, also known as Lillian Hale. To protect her, the heroes manage to get her to empower a trio of allies, transforming them into the powerful Regents of Earth.

Caleb eventually molds Matt into this with warrior combat training, to the point that our musician can match Caleb in a spar, but then Matt gets powers of his own, leaving Caleb alone once more. Raythor. He has no extra or magical abilities, he's merely a normal Meridian member of Phobos's army. That doesn't stop him from crawling his way out of a bottomless pit, a feat that took six months and left him gaunt from starvation by the time he reached the top.

In the show, however, they look like the young teenagers they are in human form, so the effect of the transformation is downplayed. Ironically, all of them are about a year younger in the first episode than at the start of the comics.

The first season specifically tried to appeal to boys after a network Retool during early production forced the writers to redo the scripts for the season up to that point, and play up male characters like Caleb and Blunk along with focusing more on the action and less on the comedy. The second season took this and ran with it: the combat sequences became significantly more intense and frequent, more male characters got important roles (particularly Matt), etc. The international season 2 opening took it all the way up to eleven: compared to the season 1 intro, the already tonally dissonant melody is remixed to sound more rock-like (without going full rock ballad like the U.S. theme), while the visuals are somehow both far "girlier" and far more badass.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_7a2aba81	comment	In the second season, Nerissa first implies and then outright states that she was released from her prison on Earth when a stray portal opened, setting her free on Meridian. Early in the season, portals are explained to have appeared only after the Veil was raised "13 years ago, [when] Prince Phobos came to power". (Indeed, folds are referred to as "the old ways of traversing dimensions".) Later, it is revealed that Caleb is Nerissa's son, as she had been in a relationship with his father Julian under a false identity. Problem is, the second episode of the show had Caleb explicitly state he was already 15, and both Nerissa and Julian are well aware of how long ago said relationship occurred: 17 years before the episode the deception is discovered, while the real Mage's grave reveals she died 18 years ago. To make matters worse, what the mistake is here is not at all obvious as Caleb is clearly older than the 13-year-old Elyon, who was the true heir brought to Earth through a portal as a baby to keep her safe from Phobos' rule. One possibility is that Nerissa lied about how she got free, but there is no indication of that in the show, nor any obvious reason why she would want to lie about that fact.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_7af365d7	comment	Reality Warping Is Not a Toy: As the Heart of Earth, Cornelia's eight-year-old sister Lillian can warp reality, but is too naive to even realize she is doing so. When she is told a bedtime story, her imagination runs wild and causes her to subconsciously manifest it in the form of a massive battle between the Guardians and Nerissa. To keep her from harming herself or others, Matt tricks her into transferring her powers to the Earth Regents until she's older.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_7b20b8d2	comment	Alternative Foreign Theme Song There's the original international theme, which is remixed for season 2 with completely different visuals for the opening. Almost all of the dubs translated this one, though quite a few didn't bother with a season 2 remix. The US theme uses a single action-focused Clip Show opening throughout (despite season 2 having a different premise) but changes up the vocals mid-season 1. The Italian theme is much more upbeat than the others, and combines clips from the show with bits of the first international opening for the visuals.

Inverted in the last few episodes of the season, where Phobos steals the Seal of Nerissa, making him far more formidable than he was in season 1... and then subverted when Cedric easily ambushes him and steals his powers. Cedric gets easier and easier to defeat each time he shows up. Even after betraying Phobos and absorbing "ultimate power" in the end, he winds up not knowing how to properly use it and is defeated yet again.

It's somewhat downplayed in that the girls sometimes have to come up with excuses to hide their activities from their parents, and are occasionally grounded (especially Will)... but when grounded they just sneak out anyways. (The first season showrunners actually wanted the girls to have even more freedom, especially during school days, but the network enforced some restrictions.)

Among the main girls, Irma and Cornelia lead the pack (obviously including plenty of Snark-to-Snark Combat with each other), Hay Lin is the resident Cuckoo Snarker, and the others are somewhere in between.

Fortunately, Nerissa got trapped in a Lotus-Eater Machine and only managed to dominate the elemental-form Guardias in her imagination.

Though the de-aged girls prove to be quite dangerous at first due to their years of experience and Nerissa's ownership of multiple Hearts granting them greater mastery over the elements, their threat level quickly diminishes once it's discovered that the lack of free will prevents them from strategizing or making simple decisions without Nerissa's guidance, and are generally less effective facing a Guardian of a different element instead of their own younger counterpart. As a result, they are curb-stomped in their debut, lose yet another battle once W.I.T.C.H. and the Earth Regents start working together, and are finally freed from Nerissa's spell during their third appearance, making them the least successful group of villains throughout the entire season.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_96a33f11	comment	Riddle for the Ages: It's assumed in-universe that the reason why the girls became the next generation of Guardians is due to Yan Lin desperately searching for young warriors who could save Meridian from Phobos' tyrannic rule, leaving her with no choice but to entrust the Heart of Kandrakar to her granddaughter's group of friends. However, this theory is shattered in "U is for Undivided", when Luba explains that each girl was hand-picked by the Oracle for a specific purpose, such as Hay Lin being chosen to provide a continuity of spirit, or Cornelia being chosen so she could protect her sister, who is the Heart of the Earth. Although the other girls express great interest in finding out why they became Guardians, Luba replies that "Such truths only emerge with the fullness of time". Given the show's cancellation, the answers to their questions, if any, will never be revealed.

Hay Lin seeing Eric for the first time would have counted if she hadn't turned invisible out of embarrassment.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_aba8065b	comment	Fatal Flaw: Nerissa can gain control of the former Guardians by exploiting "the chink in the armor of their souls", leading her to tempt them with what they desire the most until they succumb to her influence. Cassidy's is mercifulness. She unflinchingly refuses to be brought back to life when Nerissa tempts her with mundane things, but is shaken after meeting her grief-stricken mother. Desperately wishing to reunite with her mom, Cassidy willingly submits herself to the villainess's control. Halinor's is cowardice, as she attempts to steal W.I.T.C.H.'s powers for herself in a desperate attempt to protect Kandrakar from the Knights of Destruction. This single treasonous act is enough for Nerissa to corrupt her soul. Kadma's is Pride. Nerissa purposefully loses a series of battles to boost Kadma's ego, after which the latter becomes convinced that she is destined to absorb the villainess's Heart of Meridian into the Heart of Zamballa. However, since hearts cannot be forcefully taken, this action results in Nerissa claiming both jewels, while also enslaving her former friend in the process. Yan Lin is a subversion. She is offered her youth, which would enable her to use her Guardian powers without draining her own life force; and the opportunity to protect Hay Lin, which she also turns down because she believes in her granddaughter's potential. Nerissa ultimately concludes that Yan Lin is incorruptible, and decides to create an Altermere to replace her, knowing that the clone wouldn't have the same strength of character when she threatened to erase her from existence. Nerissa's is primarily Pride with serious hints of Greed: her entire Start of Darkness was because she couldn't stand Cassidy being given the Heart of Kandrakar instead and her ultimate downfall is because she can't resist going after the Heart of Earth by targetting Lillian's familiar Napoleon the cat during the Halloween Episode and her later attempt to screw over the rest of CHYKN and Elyon during the series finale backfires and traps her forever in a dream world.

They only manage to ultimately defeat Cedric by taking on their pure elemental forms, which is very risky and they nearly suffer Loss of Identity in the process.

Regardless of the proximity to the flames, the targets are never shown suffering any burns. Guardians who have powers over fire frequently employ the flames as a form of barrier, either to trap their targets or protect their allies. As shown with Irma in "N is for Narcissist", this never causes burns, even if the person is inches away from the fire.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_b545453b	comment	Internal Homage: The two seasons of the show are reflections of each other in so many ways that they naturally end up full of these. The fact that they're both exactly 26 half-hour episodes long makes references even easier. In the first season, La RÃ©sistance opposes the powerful tyrant in Meridian, while in the second The Remnant tries to depose the new, benevolent ruler. And then there's the difference between the two major villains. Also happens with individual episodes, where the plot of a second season episode is quite similar to one from the first on the surface, but significantly Darker and Edgier. Examples include "A Service to the Community" and "Q is for Quarry" (Will jumping to conclusions about a Glamour), "Divide and Conquer" and "T is for Trauma" (a new girl comes to the heroines' school and charms the boys away from them), and rather obviously given the role of the Horn of Hypnos in both, "Walk This Way" and "G is for Garbage". In the first case, it's openly lampshaded, while in the second the same Background Music plays during the scenes in question. Relationships too. Two of the girls get boyfriends in the first season, two in the second. It's almost taken to Leaning on the Fourth Wall levels when the scenes in which two of these finally happen are uncannily similar - one in each season, both at the ends of their respective episodes, again right down to the exact same music.

Exaggerated in "N is for Narcissist". When Cornelia is accidentally imbued with all of the Guardians' powers, she transforms into a fully adult version of herself. Caleb even calls her "hot".

(2004) / int_c0d598fe	comment	In the first season episode "The Stone of Threbe", a flashback shows an "heir to the throne", Weira, as the little red-headed girl for whom the semi-titular Star of Threbe was created by a younger-looking Mage. Said heir is heavily implied though not explicitly stated to be the mother of Phobos and Elyon, as she very accurately matches said character, down to the name given in season 2 and different hair color in the comics. All well and good... except that while gloating about finding the Star, Phobos says the line "a thousand years of searching". Either both Weira and the Mage lived to be thousands of years old, or there happened to be essentially identical characters a thousand years prior... or Phobos simply misspoke.

Meanwhile, Irma wanders in the city streets, completely oblivious to her friends' struggle. The irony comes from Irma failing to notice the brawl right above her head because she is too lost in thought wondering why others tend to accuse her of being too self-absorbed. Nerissa runs from her failed battle in "T is for Trauma" by invoking Exact Words: she made Will swear on the Heart of Kandrakar to not run from the battle, but states she did not make the same promise. Later in season two Will makes use of this by making Phobos swear on the Heart to not keep the power of Nerissa's Seal, knowing full well that he'd break the promise and suffer some sort of retribution if he then set foot in Kandrakar; Nerissa accidentally taught Will the key to her own defeat and Phobos's.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_d500b978	comment	Adaptational Wimp: Cedric and Elyon suffered this in the cartoon series. In the comics, Cedric was a more formidable fighter and gained several different new forms, whereas in the show he's always under The Worf Effect, while Elyon in the comics had her own agency as a villain and was nigh-invincible once she became the Light of Meridian, while in the show she's a total dupe of her brother and gets imprisoned by Nerissa even as the Heart of Meridian. Will had her energy powers from the beginning in the comics, whereas in the show she spends the whole first season without any and uses "Heart" or "The Heart" as her transformation phrase, leaving her with only the ability to fly, activate the others' Elemental Powers, and (after the Heart absorbs the Seal of Phobos) create portals. In the second season, she finally starts manifesting (and saying) Quintessence. Out-of-universe, this had to do with the change of showrunners. In-universe, it's explained as the Heart of Kandrakar not having had enough energy to grant Will her full powers while it was helping maintain the Veil, which went down at the end of the first season.

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_da1c8191	comment	Writers Cannot Do Math: While the show's lore is remarkably consistent in most respects, as befits its strict continuity, both seasons feature apparent contradictions of this type concerning timespans and character ages. In the first season episode "The Stone of Threbe", a flashback shows an "heir to the throne", Weira, as the little red-headed girl for whom the semi-titular Star of Threbe was created by a younger-looking Mage. Said heir is heavily implied though not explicitly stated to be the mother of Phobos and Elyon, as she very accurately matches said character, down to the name given in season 2 and different hair color in the comics. All well and good... except that while gloating about finding the Star, Phobos says the line "a thousand years of searching". Either both Weira and the Mage lived to be thousands of years old, or there happened to be essentially identical characters a thousand years prior... or Phobos simply misspoke. There's also the fact that Weira's father attempted to destroy the Star by throwing it into an active volcano, and it was found while digging through rock - a change that can take millions of years on Earth. However, Meridian geology isn't necessarily consistent with Earth's, to say nothing of all the magic floating around. In the second season, Nerissa first implies and then outright states that she was released from her prison on Earth when a stray portal opened, setting her free on Meridian. Early in the season, portals are explained to have appeared only after the Veil was raised "13 years ago, [when] Prince Phobos came to power". (Indeed, folds are referred to as "the old ways of traversing dimensions".) Later, it is revealed that Caleb is Nerissa's son, as she had been in a relationship with his father Julian under a false identity. Problem is, the second episode of the show had Caleb explicitly state he was already 15, and both Nerissa and Julian are well aware of how long ago said relationship occurred: 17 years before the episode the deception is discovered, while the real Mage's grave reveals she died 18 years ago. To make matters worse, what the mistake is here is not at all obvious as Caleb is clearly older than the 13-year-old Elyon, who was the true heir brought to Earth through a portal as a baby to keep her safe from Phobos' rule. One possibility is that Nerissa lied about how she got free, but there is no indication of that in the show, nor any obvious reason why she would want to lie about that fact. As if to add a further twist, the second season example also reinforces the first because the flashback to Nerissa and Julian's relationship shows the Mage looking seemingly identical to how she did when she created the Star, in stark contrast to her appearance during the events of the series, suggesting human-like aging. A lot of storylines the cartoon added for C.H.Y.K.N. ignored the fact that the members should have been around Yan Lin's age. Halinor was a posthumous character in the comics, but has been Spared by the Adaptation and seems much younger than Yan Lin in the cartoon. Cassidy's mother is somehow still alive. There's even an argument Nerissa should have been too old to conceive Caleb, even with her chronological age. Even Kadma, who was somewhat frail and elderly in the comics, is still strong and capable enough to fight as a Magical Girl Warrior without restoring her youth.

So instead of anxiety over mundane adolescent milestones, their stress is mostly over fulfilling their Guardian duties and upholding the Masquerade (including keeping their concerned parents Locked Out of the Loop).

W.I.T.C.H. (2004) / int_e9e35e8f	comment	Nerissa runs from her failed battle in "T is for Trauma" by invoking Exact Words: she made Will swear on the Heart of Kandrakar to not run from the battle, but states she did not make the same promise. Later in season two Will makes use of this by making Phobos swear on the Heart to not keep the power of Nerissa's Seal, knowing full well that he'd break the promise and suffer some sort of retribution if he then set foot in Kandrakar; Nerissa accidentally taught Will the key to her own defeat and Phobos's.
