Tropes In The True Story of Strawberry Shortcake

All Tropes In The True Story of Strawberry Shortcake

Adaptational Karma

 * Self-inflicted example. The Brambleberry Fairy is quite depressed seeing the results of her malevolent work and regrets what she did.

Adaptation Name Change

 * "Sleeping Beauty":
 * The Sleeping Beauty is called "Princess Strawberry Rose", probably because she and Strawberry Shortcake herself look similar.
 * The Prince is called "Prince Huckleberry".
 * Maleficent the fairy is called the "Brambleberry Fairy".
 * "Berry Brick Road": The Munchkins are renamed the "Berrykins", taking their new name from a combination of their old one and "berry"

Adaptational Nice Guy/Gal

 * Ginger Snap, Orange Blossom, and Blueberry Muffin accidentally apply this to Cinderella's wicked step-family, until Angel Cake defies it.

Adapted Out

 * In the book version of "Sleeping Beauty", the Berry Fairies consisted of Gingerberry Fairy (Ginger Snap), Angelberry Fairy (Angel Cake), Orangeberry Fairy (Orange Blossom), Rainbowberry Fairy (Rainbow Sherbert) and Appleberry Fairy (Apple Dumplin'). In the episode version, Angelberry Fairy was absent due to Angel portraying the Brambleberry Fairy instead of Blueberry Muffin like in the book; because of this, her role as a Berry Fairy was replaced with new character Tangerineberry Fairy (Tangerina Torta).

Always Chaotic Evil

 * Every main villain in the series.

All Of The Other Reindeer

 * Randolph is brutally discriminated by everyone (except his parents and love interest Halo) for not just the red glow in his body, but also for not being in league with the Nazis.

The Aloner

 * Coco Calypso and Banana Candy, at first.

Alpha Bitch

 * Peppermint Fizz tends to be the mean, bossy one in the first seasons, but she outgrows it.
 * Angel Cake, despite being the daughter of Jesus Christ, develops into this in the final season and takes a huge level in jerkass to the point where she has a split personality called Devil Crud.
 * Lime Light is introduced as an egotistical movie star.
 * In "Back in the Saddle", Lemon Meringue takes on the role as the snooty popular one at the dude ranch. She and Banana Candy give Plum Puddin' a hard time for her clumsiness (though they do find Cranberry Clover's joke funny) and say rude things behind her back (at Power Ent's expense).

Alter Ego

 * Devil Crud and Crusader are split personalities of Angel Cake

And I Must Scream

 * The Tin Woodsgirl, just like the original, gets immobilized. Fortunately, Strawberry Shortcake lubricates her joints with the can of oil that she found nearby, freeing her from her immobilized state.

And There Was Much Rejoicing

 * The Gliders and other animals of Porcupine Peak find Lord Purple's body and celebrate the death of their oppressor in spite of Strawberry defeating The Purple Pie Man, Sour Grapes I, and the Captain of PIE-sis.

Animal Stampede

 * The Gliders in the Sweet Dreams Movie as they damage the villains' equipment.
 * The war in "Around the Berry Big World" has countless stampedes, the salt on the wound is the surviving porcupines fleeing, only to be kidnapped and shipped back to Porcupine Peak.
 * In "Down On The Farm", The Pieman and Sour Grapes I are attacked by Carmel's sheep twice: First time before the fair starts, and again during the musical number. The injuries secure their defeat and lead to Randolph's humiliation.
 * The fire started by Foreman Poke has all the animals flee Porcupine Peak in The Escape

Arc Words

 * The phrase, "Growing/Getting better everyday/all the time." could be seen as this.

Artistic License – Physics

 * Two instances in "Angel Cake in the Outfield":
 * Despite her apparent distance from them following her outburst, Angel Cake still hears her friends.
 * Afterwards, the kids somehow manage to send their ball bouncing into the river despite being far from it.

Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence

 * Gruffy, Strawberry's parents, and Jesus and Mrs Christ are able to communicate to the others.

Ask a Stupid Question

 * In "Horse of a Different Color," when Honey Pie Pony encounters the kids trapped in the middle of a river:
 * Honey Pie: My word! What are you all doing out there?
 * Huck: Not much.
 * Honey Pie: Don't go anywhere!
 * Huck: We weren't planning on it!
 * Fry: Do you even think we gon' go somewhere dude? Not in a situation like this!

Attack Reflector

 * In "Around the Berry Big World" Pink Glaze Donut reflects a porcupine's quill attack during the final ambush.
 * "Berry Brick Road" has this where the Wicked Witch of the West fires a spell at the heroes, but the Scarecrow gets an idea where the Tin Woodsgirl reflects the spell with her own body. It works, and Taken for Granite ensues where the Wicked Witch and her flying monkey get trapped in stone.

Bad Boss

 * The Wicked Witch of the West mistreats the Berrykins in her first appearance in Berry Brick Road.
 * The animals of Porcupine Peak overthrow Lord Purple and the other villains.

Badass Princess

 * Angel Cake, while in her Crusader persona, calls herself one.

Beach Episode

 * The Mystery of Seaberry Shore and The Legend of The Lost Treasure

Because You Were Nice to Me

 * Happens in "Everybody Dance" to Sour Grapes. She disguises herself as a dance instructor to keep the kids busy so she and the other villains can take over the world, but she enjoys teaching them so much and their dancing is so extraordinary she cannot bring herself to do it, and with Strawberry's encouragement, she begins a change of heart.
 * Happens with Licorice Whip' in "Horror of the Horses" after Mocha Chiffon and Blackberry Rose save him. He fights in the war on Strawberry's side in "Around the Berry Big World."

Becoming the Mask

 * Sour Grapes briefly in "Everybody Dance", when she enjoys Strawberry and her friends' dancing so much that she can't bring herself to betray them.

Beleaguered Assistant

 * Cola Chameleon to Peppermint Fizz
 * Sour Grapes I, II, Sweet Grapes, Raisin Cane, Licorice Whip, Captain Cackle, and Foreman Poke to the Purple Pieman, and Raven to Licorice Whip. These put-upon sidekicks are more sensible than their bosses but are made to go along with their schemes.
 * Custard tends to feel she is in this position for Strawberry Shortcake.
 * Polly N. Saturated averts this, because Cranberry Clover views them as an equal.

Berserk Button

 * Do not insult and/or injure Blueberry Muffin by any means. If Cranberry Clover finds out you did, he won't hesitate to hurl an insult at you. Angel Cake learns this the hard way in "Lights... Camera."
 * Peppermint Fizz snaps at the villains in "The Sweet Dreams Movie" after they kidnap the Sandman, which reveals that the Dastardly Duo are the children of Adolf Hitler.
 * Angel Cake just about loses it in when she thinks about the minors of Porcupine Peak being killed in "A Weeping Angel."

Berserker Tears

 * These spray (as lava) out of Devil Crud's eyes as she annihilates the Purple Pie Man

Big Brother Instinct

 * Sour Grapes wishes that all the male villains followed this trope for her.

Big "NO!"

 * Followed by a Rapid-Fire "No!" when Huckleberry is offered to play Prince Charming in, "The Play's The Thing". He changed his mind when they offered to bake him some pies.
 * Foreman Poke has this in "The Sweet Dreams Movie." while the villains' super weapons and equipment used to rule the world literally explode, securing their defeat.

Blood-Splattered Warrior

 * Devil Crud is slowly covered in blood as her rampage progresses.

Bloody Horror

 * This is what Devil Crud leaves behind before the holy water splashes her.

Blush Sticker

 * The characters on the show have permanent blush stickers, except for the animals and villains.

Bowdlerise

 * In Strawberry's variation of "Sleeping Beauty", instead of the antagonist casting a spell where the princess pricks her finger and dies, she will just disappear forever.

Brave Scot

 * Cranachan.

Breath of Fire

 * Devil Crud can spew out long streams of violet fire which is one of her powers.

Broken Aesop

 * Probably several episodes, but two particularly blatant examples quickly come to mind:
 * Win Some, Lose Some: Yes, Strawberry, Cheaters Never Prosper. Especially if your definition of "cheating" doesn't include deliberately withholding a competitor until the final event. A final event which she and the others have to be reminded of after the fact! In their defense, though, most of the previous events were too dangerous for a one-year-old like Apple Dumplin' to participate in, subverting this.
 * The Good Mayor: It really goes without saying that a pest infestation which could cause a mass plague AND the apocalypse is NOT AT ALL the time to start asking nicely unless it helps with the situation. Unlike the original, the bugs are burnt by Almond Cookie, and Foreman Poke, who released them to pave the way for global catastrophe, falls into the river when the log is pushed in.

Brother–Sister Team

 * The Pieman and Sour Grapes are a villainous version.

Bull Seeing Red

 * A possible reason why Angel Cake, as Devil Crud, attempted to hurt Cranberry Clover, or it could be because of his grudge against her.

Butt-Monkey

 * Every Purple Pieman defeat takes this to the extreme:
 * How It All Began: He is the son of Adolf Hitler, who commits suicide, then he sneaks into planet Strawberryland and SOMETHING gets him and his sister, along with anyone related to him exiled to Porcupine Peak.
 * Sweet Dreams: His super weapons explode, his army is injured, his plans are ruined, and he is captured and exiled.
 * Around The Berry Big World: A final ambush from Pink Glaze Donut secures the defeat of Porcupine Peak. While in his ultimate form, he is later defeated by Strawberry in a final battle between the two. He is exiled back to Porcupine Peak again and the wastelands are walled up so that he can't take over the world.
 * Down On The Farm: He, Sour Grapes I, and Lord Purple are trampled by sheep twice. Randolph, the son of Nixon, one of his horses, runs away.
 * A Weeping Angel: He is the most injured victim of Angel Cake's attack on Porcupine Peak while she's Devil Crud, he gets beaten into a walking bloody pulp by the furious teenager.
 * The Escape: The children he has controlled are led to freedom by Foreman Poke. His Pie Tin Palace is then raided and destroyed by Pink Glaze Donut and the SWAT Team, and then Foreman Poke, his own porcupine friend, sets the land on fire.
 * Revolution: Dobbin, his own prized shire stallion, leads all of the animals of Porcupine Peak (with the help of Strawberry Shortcake) in a rebellion to take him down once and for all.

Cain and Abel

 * Purple Pieman and Sour Grapes, particularly highlighted in multiple episodes. Sour Grapes (as the Wicked Witch of the West) gets a temporary switch to Cain in the Berry Brick Road episodes with Plum Puddin' (as Glinda the Good Witch) as her Abel.

Canon Foreigner

 * Countless new characters were made for the purpose of extension.

Cardiovascular Love

 * Cranberry Clover's heart beats out of his chest the picosecond he lays eyes on Blueberry Muffin in "Cranberry Clover's First Love"
 * Cranberry Clover and Blueberry Muffin radiate these during their kiss in "The Sweet Dreams Movie."

 * 5) All of Satan’s Minions are destroyed by God’s army in The Fate of All Strawberryland. In the same episode, Satan is obliterated by Strawberry Shortcake’s blast. Queen Fruit Punch bleeds out from a machete wound, and King Sugar Cube succumbs to his injuries, but not before revealing that the empire now belongs to Strawberry.

Cheaters Never Prosper

Strawberry plays Cinderella. Blueberry Muffin plays the stepmother, but is recast as the Fairy Godmother. Orange Blossom and Ginger Snap play the stepsisters. Angel Cake plays the Fairy Godmother but is recast as the Wicked Stepmother (thanks to Cranberry Clover). Huckleberry Pie plays the Prince.

Easily Forgiven

 * In "Win Some, Lose Some," Peppermint Fizz is easily forgiven by Strawberry Shortcake for cheating in the games. Of course, it does help that Strawberry was never really mad at her, just sad at her failure to understand that the important part of playing games is having fun. Generally true for other cases where someone does something wrong as well.
 * Defied hard by Cranberry Clover in "Piece of Cake." After Blueberry Muffin is insulted one too many times by Angel Cake, Cranberry Clover ends his friendship with Angel.

Inelegant Blubbering

Jabba Table Manners

 * Raspberry Torte has these in "Mind Your Manners" at first. Thanks to Strawberry Shortcake, she overcomes this flaw.

Jerkass Ball

 * Angel Cake ends up on both ends of this trope. The first episode where she had this, "Angel Cake in the Outfield", has her suffer bouts of It's All About Me and storm off when she fails. In "The Play's The Thing", she takes offense to how Blueberry Muffin, Ginger Snap, and Orange Blossom applied Adaptational Nice Guy to their characters and gives them this to get the story back on track, though an angry Cranberry Clover tells her to switch characters with Blueberry Muffin.

Blueberry Muffin (the stepmother) and Ginger Snap and Orange Blossom (the stepsisters) feel bad and say she can go after all until Angel Cake (the fairy godmother) gets the story back on track.

Mirror Character

 * Raspberry Torte and Sour Grapes. Both are pessimists by nature, both are quite loyal to one person (Lemon Meringue and Purple Pieman, respectively), and both had the same abandoned dream.

Motor Mouth

 * Ginger Snap has a penchant for fast-talking.

My God, What Have I Done?

 * Peppermint Fizz at first celebrates her victory following the games in "Win Some, Lose Some", but it ends up a Pyrrhic Victory when she sees Strawberry Shortcake giving Apple Dumplin' a You Are Better Than You Think You Are speech, which ends up making Peppermint Fizz come clean and call herself out.

 * "Glorious As Strawberryland" is the national anthem of the planet of Strawberryland, set to Scotland the Brave.

Negative Continuity

 * In the first episode "Meet Strawberry Shortcake," Apple Dumplin' is tasked with mixing the pot while making her birthday cake. However, in "Baby Takes The Cake," Strawberry and her friends tell her that she is too little to help them bake.

New Jobs As The Plot Demands

 * This is used to great comic effect in "Strawberry's Big Journey." When the group meets Banana Candy, she is working as a mechanic. They ask if there's somewhere that they can get food and she directs them to a local cafe and offers them a taxi... which turns out to be driven by her. When they get to the cafe, Banana Candy is making the meal, leading them to wonder just how the car is going to get fixed.
 * Banana Candy: Small towns like this, you need a few jobs to make ends meet.

Never My Fault

 * The Brambleberry Fairy blames her exclusion from the party on everyone else when it was really her own Idiot Ball (the Brambleberry fence and ignorance of the invitation) that resulted in her exclusion. This gets toned down later on when she realizes what this made her become and starts to regret what she did. Prince Huckleberry tells her that she needs to listen to get the full message, cementing her Heel–Face Turn.

No One Could Survive That!

 * Given how Queen Lilac's arena was a brick floor over a giant pit, she somehow survives her fall.

 * Guess who survives, only to have his crummy base raided destroyed by Pink Glaze Donut in the following episode?

Non-Human Sidekick

 * Many of the pets.

Not Now, Kiddo

 * Apple Dumplin' gets this sometimes.

Ocular Gushers

 * In "Baby Takes the Cake," all of the babies in Apple Dumplin's Imagine Spot in which she's an adult wail and cry these when she gets angry and tells them that they can't help her. She then starts crying these herself and, seeing this, they stop and calm down.
 * After Rainbow Sherbet says his patched-together raincoat looks silly on him, Cranberry Clover has these as he leaves the Friendship Clubhouse.
 * Apple Dumplin has these again in "Recovery" when she vents about how terrifying the Berry Big World War was and how close the world was to being taken over by the diabolical tyrannic ruler of Porcupine Peak.
 * In "A Weeping Angel," Angel Cake has this twice: First time as Devil Crud which technically still counts since her eyes can shoot fire like her mouth does. Second time after realizing the chaos she caused, these somehow erupt in giant waves that spill onto the floors, given that she bawls into her pillow.

Oh, Crap!

 * Peppermint Fizz gets one when her competitors find that her lizard was just lip-syncing instead of singing much to their ire in "Peppermint's Pet Peeve".
 * The entire gang gets this when they get the idea that an abomination (which they call "the Blueberry Beast") is occupying a house. Turns out, it's just Blueberry Muffin doing her things at home, as Strawberry Shortcake finds out the next day.
 * Huckleberry Pie, Rainbow Sherbet, Coco Calypso, and Seaberry Delight simultaneously get this when tears start to well up inCranberry Clover's eyes.
 * Strawberry gets this in "Around The Berry Big World" when she realizes that the ship that two persons offered for her and Peppermint Fizz's trip back to Strawberry Land isn't going in the right direction. (Strawberry watched the stars at night.) Fizz doubts it... until Strawberry realizes that the land that they are approaching does not match Central Strawberry Land at all. Fortunately, one of their friends who lives there helps them get back. The Porcupine Peak Army gets this when they hear Pink Glaze Donut's voice before the final ambush that gets them kidnapped and secures Strawberry winning the war with ten minutes left.
 * The Purple Pie Man, Sour Grapes I, and Lord Purple before the sheep trample them in Down On The Farm. Randolph also gets this when he finds out he was spotted helping Custard and Pupcake leading the animals back to Carmel's Farm.

 * The Purple Pie Man realizing that his father, Adolf Hitler was revived in Pie Man's Fury.
 * All of Porcupine Peak as an absolutely furious Angel Cake (In her Devil Crud alter ego) sets foot in the wasteland in an explosive manner.
 * Lord Purple just before the animals of Porcupine Peak attack him and the other adults.
 * Satan gets this just before his death.

Official Couple

 * Strawckleberry (Strawberry Shortcake and Huckleberry Pie)

 * Ranlo (Randolph and Halo)
 * SugarPunch (Sugar Cube and Fruit Punch)

Once Per Episode

Only I Can Kill Him

 * Strawberry Shortcake is the only one able to deliver the killing blow to Satan.

 * "Around the Berry Big World" has the four Porcupine Peak Leaders in a paper-thin disguise as a ship crew, offering to take Strawberry Shortcake and Peppermint Fizz home to Strawberryland, but actually out to sabotage them so that they can win the war.
 * Played with in "Down on the Farm." Strawberry Shortcake, Pupcake, and Custard disguise themselves as sheep and hide among the sheep of Caramel Corn's farm to discover who's been stealing her animals. Caramel Corn finds their disguises less than convincing, but Strawberry says that by the time it's dark they won't notice anything. When the Purple Pie Man and Sour Grapes come to take the sheep, Sour Grapes asks if they should take the "funny-looking" ones as well. Pie Man, being a jerk, says that he doesn't care what they look like.

The Perfectionist

 * Despite her Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold personality, Angel Cake has this flaw. She has a bad habit of calling out those who aren't perfect. Contrast Huckleberry Pie, who's a bit messy.

Pipe Maze

 * Berry Land, in "Super Berry Bros. 3"

Playground Song

 * In "Strawberry's Big Journey," Orange Blossom leads several rounds of "John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt." Angel is irritated by such.

Running Gag

 * Strawberry Shortcake and Honey Pie Pony meet him and talk with him up at the North Pole in Berry, Merry Christmas.

Scare Dare

 * In "The Blueberry Beast," Huckleberry Pie issues a scare dare to go into some spooky woods. Strawberry replies that dares are silly, so he makes it a double dare, and Strawberry counters that double dares are double silly. He ups it to a Triple Scoop Dare with a strawberry on top and Strawberry says that he's on.

Selfless Wish

 * In Berry, Merry Christmas, when Santa Claus asks Strawberry what she wants for Christmas, she sobs because she's worried that she won't be able to find a gift for Huckleberry. After reassuring her that things will be alright with Huck, he asks her just what it is that she wants, but she can't come up with anything other than that she wants to make sure all of her friends get good gifts. To further drive home the point, most kids have a Christmas list of things they want for Christmas. What Strawberry calls her "Christmas list" is actually her list of things she plans to buy for her friends.

Shifting Sand Land

Stealth Pun

Supernaturally Marked Grave

 * Gruffy's body stays in the cave where he died. The rose bush that Strawberry plants grows to mark the grave.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome

 * Strawberry decides to get Huck snowballs for Christmas. As soon as she gets home, the snowballs melt, ruining every single gift she's bought up to that point.

Tagalong Kid

 * Apple Dumplin'. Even though everyone else is a kid, she is a lot younger than they are and often comes along on adventures.

Tagline

Taken for Granite

 * This is what happens when the good guys reflect the spell that the Wicked Witch of the West fired in their direction back at her, and she and her flying monkey minion get trapped in stone.

Tank Goodness

 * Biblical Brigade, right at the start

The Dark Side

The Great Fire

 * Foreman Poke lights Porcupine Peak on fire before leading the children to the refuge base.

The Lad-ette

 * Angel Cake's Crusader persona.

The Talk

 * The plot of "When The Rivers Run Red". While it focuses on a guidance angel talking to the girls about it, the boys are left to find out what they mean by the "rivers that run red" which will happen to Strawberry first. It's only the night before that happens when the boys finally find out what it means.
 * Huck: Turns out that God meant...
 * (beat, then the boys all exclaim thing such as "WHAT?!" and "OH, MAN!" and "OH, MY GOD!" and having various looks on their faces, ranging from cringed to shocked to disgusted)

There Are No Adults

 * While the occasional adult shows up, usually as a villain, none of the main characters have parents (if one doesn't count Fragaria, Redberry, Jesus, Mrs Christ, or Gruffy)

To The Tune Of

 * Glorious as Strawberryland is set to Scotland the Brave.
 * Heifer of Strawberryland is set to Flower of Scotland.

Tomboy

 * In "Super Berry Bros. 3", Queen Red of Fizz Land, played by Peppermint Fizz, is the only queen to not wear a feminine outfit.
 * While there is a fair helping of tomboys, the athletic Raspberry Torte is the biggest example.

Tomboy and Girly Girl

 * The close friendship between Raspberry Torte (Tomboy) and Lemon Meringue (Girly Girl).

Took a Level in Jerkass

 * The Purple Pieman, who has been made into the bloodthirsty, murderous son of Adolf Hitler who attacks Strawberryland for blood and genocide and is a ruthless crook. This results in countless defeats.
 * Angel in Season 4, depending on the episode, to the point of even playing the villain in "Sleeping Beauty" and having a demon persona called Devil Crud.
 * Angel Cake tells Ginger Snap and Orange Blossom to do this for the Cinderella play after she catches them acting Out of Character, defying Adaptational Nice Guy for Cinderella's wicked stepsisters (whose role Ginger Snap and Orange Blossom are playing) in "The Play's The Thing". She tries to tell Blueberry Muffin to do this, but an angry Cranberry Clover tells Angel Cake to switch roles with Blueberry.

Train Problem

 * In "Queen For a Day", Sour Grapes and Strawberry are competing to be the Queen of the Berry Blossom Festival. As part of the competition, they are asked numerous questions by Purple Pieman, who is rigging the quiz. Pieman asks Strawberry a very difficult train question, which is so complicated that he eventually just skips it altogether.
 * Pieman: If a train leaves the station at 3:48 in the afternoon, headed west, going 43 miles an hour for the first hour, 56 miles an hour for the second half hour, then stops at 5:11 to pick up 3 passengers, but 12 passengers get off, and one hour later 5 passengers get off and 5 get on, but not the same five, then stops three times in one hour and arrives at 9:28 PM?

Trivial Title

 * "The Costume Party". The title has almost nothing to do with the episode’s plot, as it revolves around Rainbow’s arrival and Peppermint dismissing her for being different, but it comes from the prank Strawberry and the gang pull on her in the climax to teach her a lesson.

Turned Against Their Masters

 * The animals of Porcupine Peak do this to Lord Purple in Revolution.

Under The Sea

 * The point of the "Waiting for the Fun to Start" song.
 * My favorite part of ridin' ain't the sweet sensation/The exhilaration when you feel your beating heart/My favorite part of ridin' is the preparation/While you're waitin' for the fun to start...

Wham Line

 * In "Piece of Cake":
 * Cranberry Clover: From this day on, Angel, you're no longer my friend!


 * In "Red Flag":
 * Prankster: Now if there's one thing I'd like to point out, no filly of mine is going to be seen with a colt who has a shiny red glow!

When the Clock Strikes Twelve

 * Changed to When the Clock Strikes eight in "The Play's the Thing", as Strawberella has to be home by 8:00 instead of midnight, which is past her bedtime.
