Western Animation / SuperThings: Rivals of Kaboom - Kazoom Power

1 Following

SuperThings: Rivals of Kaboom - Kazoom Power is a 2024 Spanish animated series for the SuperThings toyline, and the second one after the webseries. It is a joint creation by Spanish studios Filmax, Tandem Films, and Turanga Films, with animation provided by Keytoon Animation. The show is co-produced by the television channels RTVE Clan, À Punt, and 3Cat, who air the original Castilian Spanish, Valencian, and Catalan dubs, respectively.

Facing expulsion from an incident in science class, sixth grade friends Kai, Finn, and Mia stumble upon a portal in their teacher's science lab, where they meet Enigma, a mysterious top hat-wearing character. He comes from Kaboom City, the city of SuperThings, objects that have come to life and transformed into superheroes and supervillains by the power of the Kazoom, a powerful element. The kids, now transformed into superpowered Kazoom Kids, are now Kid Kazoom, Kid Fury, and Multy.

Thanks to the machinations of the evil Mr. King and his assistant Professor K, the Kazoom has been stolen and the side of the villains has increased, leaving the heroes weaker. Joining Enigma in Kaboom City, the Kazoom Kids join the side of the heroes and attempt to protect the Kazoom. However, tensions start to flare when the kids find themselves on opposite sides of the battle.

The series has two seasons created concurrent to each other, with release dates for 2024 and 2025. A theatrical movie is planned for 2026, with a third and fourth season planned after the movie. The series was first released in Spanish, with an English dub released a year later. In October 2024, it was announced that distribution company Liquid Rock Entertainment would handle the international rights of the show, with its UK release starting in March 2025 on ITVX. The show is supplemented by new series of the SuperThings toyline, labeled as Kazoom Power Battle, Kazoom Power Mission, and Kazoom Power Warriors.

---

The series contains examples of:

• Absence of Evidence: To keep himself secure from the villains, Enigma has his clocktower base modified to cut off any internet or phone connection that is near it. Pic Manic noticing that his connection to Kid Fury's communicator cuts out as soon as he enters it causes him to take pictures of the vicinity, eventually bringing the focus of the base in itself to Mr. King.
• Adaptational Location Change: In the webseries, Kaboom City was established as the base "Earth" of the setting, with humans and SuperThings living together on the regular. Here, Kaboom City is in a separate dimension from Earth, populated by SuperThings only, with the Kazoom Kids being from Earth's dimension.
• Adaptation Relationship Overhaul:
  • In the original webseries, Kid Kazoom and Kid Fury, along with their Kazoom Kid counterparts Kazoom Power and Fury Storm, only meet each other when they become designated rivals. In this series, Kai and Finn are best friends who slowly morph into rivals due to conflicting viewpoints.
  • In the original series, Mr. King and Professor K are childhood friends, with Mr. King taking the leadership role and Professor K his second in command. In this series, Professor K created Mr. King, only for the toxic waste drum to automatically usurp power over the villains, leaving his own creator as his subordinate.
• Adaptation Dye-Job:
  • Ron Ron in the original webseries was given white sclera like heroes and citizens, leading to a point both in-universe and out of-universe on whether or not he was secretly a hero. This series would give him yellow sclera, making him far more blatantly a villain.
  • Airpunch, the Kazoom Kid that Airblast is based on, is a red balloon. Airblast, meanwhile, is orange.
  • The original Trasher, while being green like this show's Trasher, also wore blue. This version of Trasher is fully green.
  • Starberry in the original series is a red strawberry soda-themed Kazoom Kid. In this version, she is pink.
  • Power Punch in the original series is also red, being a boxing glove. In this series, he's an orange one.
• Adaptation Name Change:
  • The character Mr. C from the original canon is now named Super C in this series, to help remove more heavily gendered pronouns of the characters.
  • Kid Kazoom's main attack is now called "Kazoom Flash", rather than "Kazoom Power" from the original canon, due to the old ability name now being the transformation activation of the Kazoom Kids.
• Air-Vent Passageway: The episode "Let's Recover the Kazoom" sees the Kazoom Kids sneaking into the villain base via the vent system. Unfortunately for them, it turns out that the villain base vents have a pest control system...a moving laser grid.
• All There in the Manual: The last names of the Kazoom Kids are never said in the show. Rather, they come from bio videos released on the Magicbox YouTube channel, which feature the kids introducing themselves.
• Appropriated Appellation: The episode "The Name of a Hero" focuses on the Kazoom Kids trying to figure out their hero names, which they each unlock separately:
  • Multy gains hers after Mighty Moo is impressed by her multitool abilities.
  • Kid Fury picks his when Cerealiak talks about how furious he is after his defeat.
  • Kid Kazoom, the last to pick his name, ends up deciding on it after witnessing the Kazoom on Enigma's monitor.
• Animated Adaptation: The second for the franchise, after the webseries. This series focuses primarily on the new canon of the series.
• Arch-Enemy:
  • It's established that by nature, SuperThings have a rivalry that contrasts each other in theming: a hero orange vs. a villain juicer, a hero soda vs. a villain popcorn, and so on. The fact the Kazoom Kids lack rivals is seen as unprecedented to the heroes. Kid Kazoom would eventually gain a villain rival...unfortunately, it would be Kid Fury, who had just betrayed his friends for the villains.
  • Averted with the Legendary SuperThings. One of the reasons they are so regarded in myth is their lack of rivals.
• Art Initiates Life: The episode "Draw Me if You Can" sees villain colored pencil Colormad trapping his rival, hero eraser Max Blank, along with Kazoom Kids Astro Turbo, Starberry, and Power Punch in his paper dimension. Since it's his domain, anything he draws is able to come to life, something he uses to torture the others for his own amusement.
• Attack! Attack! Attack!: This style of fighting is the method that Lancelord teaches Kid Kazoom and Multy to go against in "Legendary Training". Just mindlessly attacking without a defensive strategy gets one nowhere, and he teaches them that having something to fight for instead is the better way.
• Bizarre Taste in Food:
  • Kid Kazoom and Doc Vroom both share the same taste in pizza toppings, much to the disgust of others: pineapple and mayonnaise. It's to the point that Crusty, a living villain pizza, considers this too far for even herself. This weird pizza combo is actually how the heroes locate Doc Vroom. In the episode "A Legendary Quest", the heroes simply follow the scent of this weird combination being delivered to his hidden laboratory to find it.
  • The episode "A Sweet Disaster" reveals that Doc Vroom's favorite flavor of candy is licorice with mustard, anchovies and chocolate, a combination that Kai does not abide by.
• Blow You Away: One of Airblast's abilities, fitting both his name and his balloon powers, is the ability to suck in air and shoot it out. He can use it to pump parts of his body up for stronger abilities, or let it out to propel him faster.
• Brainwash Residue: Of the shapeshifting variety. Sally's Kazoom Kid form, Sourbette, is themed after ice cream. When she, Airblast, and Trasher are glitched back into the real world in the episode "Kazoom Super Race", due to having their powers on a faulty level thanks to being teleported by a single Kazoom fragment instead of the entire piece, the three of them lose all memory of being Kazoom Kids. Sally though mentions she has a sudden craving for ice cream, as the three head out to get some.
• By the Power of Grayskull!: The Kazoom Kids have to call out "Kazoom Power!" to activate their transformations.
• Cell Phones Are Useless:
  • Mia still has her cell phone with her from Earth, but it proves to be an entirely useless item for her in Kaboom City. Due to a combination of her phone coming from a different world and Enigma modifying his tower to block out signals to prevent the villains from finding his location, she's unable to contact anyone on Earth with it.
  • This cell phone blockage also applies to cell phone SuperThings. Pic Manic, being a living cell phone villain, is unable to breach Enigma's base thanks to being unable to connect to it, having to settle with taking photographs as a semi-loophole.
• Clock Tower: Enigma's secret base and living quarters is the clocktower of the city, located behind City Hall. He has taken various measures to keep it hidden from the villains, such as blocking off internet connections, despite the fact that it looks like a top hat like him. For a small arc, the villains manage to breach the base, but he eventually gains it back.
• Color-Coded Characters:
  • Each of the Kazoom Kids have two colors associated with them, filling out both the primary and secondary colors via contrast: Kid Kazoom has blue and orange, Kid Fury has red and green, and Multy has yellow and purple. The three of them originally wore different colors outside of their Kazoom Kid personas, but the switch also changed their civilian clothing colors as well.
  • This trend would continue with the second generation of Kazoom Kids, using similar colors with different variations to separate the secondary color schemes. Airblast is orange, with blue and red for details, Trasher is various shades of green with purple details, and Sourbette is various shades of purple, using other rainbow colors to separate her further.
  • The third generation of Kazoom Kids would continue using repeated colors with variants to separate them from others. Astro Turbo is red with two shades of blue for details, Starberry is light and dark pink with lime green accents, Power Punch is orange with dark red and light blue accents, JellyBeam is yellow and lime green with orange and red accents, Velocitix is dark blue with yellow and red details, and Sinistrap is light green with darker green, purple, and red accents.
• Color-Coded Secret Identity:
  • Zigzagged with Kai, Finn, and Mia, AKA Kid Kazoom, Kid Fury, and Multy, the original three Kazoom Kids. Before their transformations, their hair colors and eye colors matched their future superpowered forms (blue, red, and yellow, respectively). However, they wore entirely different outfit color schemes. Turning into Kazoom Kids somehow managed to transform their civilian wear into the colors of their Kazoom Kid identities.
  • Played straight with the second generation of Kazoom Kids, Andy, Trent, and Sally, AKA Airblast, Trasher, and Sourbette. They already had their outfit color schemes present before they transformed, along with sticking with the theme of sharing hair and eye colors with their Kazoom Kid forms: orange, green, and purple, respectively.
  • The third generation of Kazoom Kids would continue the trend of existing color schemes in the human identities via clothing, hair, and eyes. Pax, Stelle, and Aldrin, AKA Power Punch, Starberry, and Astro Turbo, have orange, pink, and red for their colors, respectively. The additional Kazoom Kids of this era, Joy, Victor, and Sylvia, AKA JellyBeam, Velocitix, and Sinistrap, would continue this, with neon green and yellow, dark blue, and dark green respectively.
• Company Cross-References: A sticker on one of the lockers in the school in the episode "The Power of the Kazoom" is of Mosh, one of the characters from the revamp of Gogo's Crazy Bones, a prior toyline of Magicbox's.
• Competition Freak: Finn and Kai are always attempting to one-up each other in situations, despite the detriments of it. This is first seen when they add too much reactant in the volcano purely to be the one to add the most. This level of competition between the two would grow worse after gaining superpowers, culminating in Kid Fury siding with the villains purely to prove his power.
• Composite Character:
  • Kid Kazoom takes elements from both the original Kid Kazoom, the original major protagonist of the toyline, and Kazoom Power, Kid Kazoom's Kazoom Kid counterpart. He takes his general design from Kazoom Power, while he takes his role and name from Kid Kazoom.
  • Similarly, Kid Fury takes elements from both the original Kid Fury, Kid Kazoom's rival from the toyline, and Fury Storm, Kid Fury's Kazoom Kid counterpart. He also takes Fury Storm's general design, while also taking Kid Fury's role and name.
  • Airblast takes a majority of elements from Airpunch, one of the original Kazoom Kids. In terms of Airpunch, he takes his general design, abilities, and SuperThing partner. His name is taken however from Airblast, one of the original SuperThings from Series 1 of the toyline.
• Continuity Reboot: This series, along with the toy series associated with it, sees a fully new revamp of the brand. The show takes place in an entirely different situation than the webseries, and the toylines restart their checklist countdowns back to one.
• Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Sourbette is designed as the antithesis of Badnilla, the former ice cream-based Kazoom Kid from the original webseries. While Badnilla is cold and calculating, while hiding a hidden temper, Sourbette is bubbly and energetic, to the point of not taking her role as a villain as seriously as she should.
• Curtains Match the Window: Even before their transformations into Kazoom Kids changing their civilian clothing into color schemes that match their transformations, the Kazoom Kids have eyes that match their hair colors. Kai has blue eyes and bright blue hair, Mia has yellow eyes and yellow hair (not blonde, but fully yellow), and Finn has red eyes and red hair (also a non-realistic shade). This would continue on with the next three Kazoom Kids: Andy has orange eyes and orange hair, Trent has green eyes and green hair, and Sally has purple eyes and purple hair. The third iteration would also see this: Aldrin with red hair and red eyes, Stelle with pink hair and pink eyes, Pax with orange hair and orange eyes, Joy with neon green hair and neon green eyes, Victor with dark blue hair and dark blue eyes, and Sylvia with dark green hair and dark green eyes.
• Desperation Attack: This is what unlocks Kazoom Evolutions for the three main Kazoom Kids. Seeing their allies in danger with nowhere to turn, they use the fullest capability of their Kazoom powers, something that would normally depower them for a while, giving them their strongest form yet.
• Detention Episode: The first episode, "The Power of the Kazoom". Through a combination of Finn and Kai's overcompetition with filling a model volcano with reactant, along with Mia filming the results, a mess is made in the science room. Professor Daninsky give the three of them weekend detention to clean up his classroom. This ends up revealing the Kaboom City teleporter to the trio, which gives them Kazoom Kid abilities, also introducing them to Enigma, who ends up taking them to Kaboom City with him.
• Dismantled MacGuffin: The episode "Into Pieces" sees the main Kazoom broken into six pieces. Mr. King obtains one, as the remainder scatters through Kaboom City.
• Epileptic-Friendly Filter: The English release of the show on ITVX, and thus, the YouTube upload as well, darkens the screen and slows down the animation for various clips with bright lights for epilepsy safety.
• Even Evil Has Standards:
  • Crusty, a living villain pizza, as seen in the episode "A Legendary Quest", considers Doc Vroom's regular order of a pizza with pineapple and mayonnaise as the toppings as too far even for herself.
  • The episode "Back to the Laboratory" reveals this was the case for Doc Vroom. Realizing that Mr. King's creation would throw the heroes vs. villains chaos too far, he gave up being a villain and retired.
• Evolution Power-Up: The Kazoom Kids are able to unlock a new and more powerful ability tier called "Kazoom Evolution". The mission to the volcano is what unlocks it for the trio, each finding themselves in such a desperate situation that they exert their powers to the fullest.
• Eye Colour Change: Finn's sclera turn from white to yellow when he transforms into his Kid Fury form. This would prove the same for Trent and his Trasher form and Sally and her Sourbette form.
• Face–Heel Turn: Kid Fury, despite being a hero at first, is yellow-eyed, a trait of villains. While he tries to be a hero, he eventually is swayed by Mr. King. This, combined with his need for competition and being the winner, causes him to abandon the heroes and go to the villains.
• Fatal Flaw: For Finn, competition. Having to be the winner all the time, he eventually abandons the heroes, including his best friend Kai, purely for the fact that it proves that he's stronger.
• Forced Sleep: The villain Zzleeper has the ability to use his pillow feathers to force sleep onto his opponents, with the only way to counteract this being his rival, O'Clock, ringing at 8 AM. The episode "5 More Minutes" sees Zzleeper attempting to put the town to sleep for 1000 years just so he can get some decent sleep of his own without being woken by the chaos of the town.
• Friendly Rivalry:
  • Kid Kazoom and Kid Fury, even in school, were always in a friendly game of one-upmanship with each other, trying to be the best out of each other. This rivalry would eventually turn very unfriendly and into an actual rivalry when Kid Fury ends up leaving to be a villain.
  • The episode "A Legendary Quest" revealed that this used to be the case for all of the SuperThings at one point. Before the intervention of Mr. King, the Heroes and Villains were rivals in good fun, and Doc Vroom would create inventions for both to spice up the friendly battles. Once Mr. King took command of the Villains, they became a far more devastating threat. The fun of the battles gone, Doc Vroom secluded himself in his underground lab.
• Goo It Up: One of Trasher's abilities is the ability to send out globs of garbage slime. He can use it to hit things and put it onto the ground to use as a slick. His powers glitching out can cause him to create a living trash kaiju with it.
• Green Thumb: Sinistrap's main ability, due to her Venus flytrap theming, lets her summon even more giant flytraps as minions. They can hold others, and the thorns of their vines can turn anyone they poke into inanimate topiary.
• Hard Light: The original three Kazoom Kids have the ability to create hard light constructs as part of their powers. While Multy only can use hers in a facsimile of roller skates, Kid Kazoom and Kid Fury are able to fire blasts of the Kazoom light, along with creating gauntlet-like weapons as their main attacks.
• Henshin Hero: In contrast to the original concept of Kazoom Kids being a "permanent transformation", the Kazoom Kids of this series are able to activate their transformations on a limited timer.
• Hidden in Plain Sight: Enigma's secret base is the clocktower...that is designed to look like a top hat just like him in his color scheme. Mr. King is furious that none of the villains stopped to think about this connection when the clues are put together.
• Hour of Power: In contrast to prior concepts of Kazoom Kids, who were permanently merged with the object they were combined with, these Kazoom Kids have a limit on their powers, which will eventually shut off.
• Humans Are Ugly: The Kazoom Kids are regarded as weird-looking and disturbing by the SuperThings. Being squat-boded objects in their builds, they find the kids' long limbs and noses disturbing.
• An Ice Person: Sourbette's abilities. Being an ice cream cone, she is able to launch globs of ice cream, with any object or person it hits freezing. She also has a much larger and stronger ice cream handheld cannon that has the same effects, only stronger, to the point of being able to temporarily freeze Biggie Munch, a living oven.
• Ironic Fear: Airblast is a balloon-themed hero that's afraid of heights.
• Locked into Strangeness: Professor Daninsky gained his messy hair out of shock of seeing the results of the Kazoom teleporter destroying the lab.
• Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me:
  • One of Multy's abilities lets her summon a round shield. Not only does it let her deflect attacks, she can also throw it if she needs to.
  • Lancelord, having a shield as his object representation, is able to use himself as a shield, brushing off attacks easier.
• Mecha-Mooks: The villains have "Robotoxics", oil barrel-like robots under the command of Mr. King, as created by Professor K. Powered by stolen Kazoom, they exist to boost the rankings of the villains, while also easily being mowed down by the Kazoom Kids.
• Medium Blending: Asides from the Painted CGI for special effects, various moments, such as on Enigma's hologram device, Pic Manic's phone screen, and the movie theater's film, are made in 2D animation, contrasting the CGI of the show.
• The Mole: The episode "One of Us" sees Kid Fury becoming one for the villains. Having impressed Mr. King with his test, he is given a communicator device to help track him towards the heroes' side. Enigma appears to know that something's going on, but has yet to say anything. This would all eventually unravel in the episode "Wreck Delivery Service", where Mr. King would contact Kid Fury on his hidden telecommunicator, to rub in the fact that Enigma just lost his base, the only safe haven for him in the city. He fully ditches the heroes in "Into Pieces".
• Morality Pet: Like his prior iteration, the only thing in the world that Mr. King cares about is his pet dog Ron Ron. It's to the point that Professor K, in his bio video, dryly admits that's he's basically "third in command" of the villains due to how much Mr. King praises Ron Ron. Kid Kazoom manages to weaponize this trait in the episode "Check to the Barracks". Mr. King brushes off his taunting fine, but once Kid Kazoom mocks Ron Ron, he quickly retaliates in the way the heroes want.
• Morphic Resonance:
  • The Kazoom Kids remain with the traits of their human forms in various ways. Certain articles of clothing, colors pulled from their civilian wear, and unique hairstyles are translated into the objects that they transform into.
  • The episode "A Legendary Origin" reveals this to be true of Enigma and Professor K. Before transforming, Enigma was a top-hat wearing scientist with a lab coat with coattails, hidden eyes, and an unknown name. His wand was the ripped off lever from the out-of-control Kazoom teleporter. Professor K, meanwhile, was stout with tall hair that made him resemble a flask already.
• Movie-Theater Episode: The episode "Pop-corn Revenge" sees the heroes with a day off. Kai and Finn go to watch a movie, a version of "The Four Supersurfers", only for the movie to be interrupted by a battle between Pop Shock and Bubbles. This is apparently a recurring thing, as the other moviegoers merely leave in mild annoyance.
• Mythology Gag: Various references to the original era of the toyline and to the webseries are included in the series for small moments:
  • The springy rides on the school's playground in "The Power of the Kazoom" resemble the Turbo Storm and Power Flash vehicles, two cars that were released in Series 1 of the toyline.
  • A reoccurring statue outside of City Hall is of Mayor Duplus, first introduced in the webseries, but using his toy-ported design.
  • A crane machine in the episode "Let's Recover the Kazoom" features the original two-tone logo for the SuperThings brand, the one prior to the single-tone one that was introduced with the show.
  • The heroes' headquarters for the series is a near-direct import in design of the one from the Kazoom Kids era of the webseries.
  • The movie in the episode "Pop-corn Revenge" is of "The Four Supersurfers", an in-series franchise from the webseries. "Into Pieces" would later show a billboard of Dr. Palmtree, the villain from that series.
• No Biological Sex: The SuperThings themselves, being objects come to life, have no actual biological sex. They do use personal gendered pronouns, but they are biologically neutral. The episode "A Sweet Disaster" lampshades this fact, with JellyBeam asking Super C if he's a boy or a girl, with him having to point out twice that he's "an orange".
• Noodle Incident: As revealed in the episode "Let's Steal the Energy", Mia has the tendency to scold Sally over her antics in school. Some of the things she has tried to do include roller skating on the tables and trying to eat Mia's homework, with no information further than Sally's mocking puppet of Mia's past words.
• Not-So-Final Confession: In "Burning Flight", the main three Kazoom Kids look to be swept away by a wave of lava. Because of the impending doom, Finn admits that the Super-Robot 31 comic that Kai couldn't find was actually lost by Finn, while Mia admits she doesn't even like the Super-Robot 31 series, just the artwork in it. As the three realize this still caused them to become best friends, Mia finds the drive to unlock her Kazoom Evolution, reaching her next level of power and saving all three of them.
• Ominous Visual Glitch: This happens to the second generation of Kazoom Kids. Being teleported to Kaboom City on a singular fragment of Kazoom, rather than the full six pieces like the original three, they have a tendency to stutter and have their Kazoom Kids forms shake around in pixels, freezing them in place and amplifying their superpowers in wrong ways.
• Orange/Blue Contrast: Kid Kazoom’s color scheme; most of his body is blue, but his mask, gloves, belt, and part of his boots are orange.
• Painted CGI: The series is the first CGI iteration of the brand, with fully CGI characters, backgrounds, and props. Despite this, the special effects, such as Kazoom lightning, stink clouds, and other attacks, are drawn in 2D.
• Parting-Words Regret: In the episode "Into Pieces", Kid Kazoom declares Kid Fury as truly a villain when the latter leaves with Mr. King's side. He automatically regrets saying this, especially since this only solidifies Kid Fury's choice to stay with the villains.
• Pineapple Ruins Pizza:
  • Doc Vroom's pizza order of choice, one reviled by everyone but Kid Kazoom (who agrees with his tastes) contains pineapple on it. It also contains mayonnaise.
  • In "The Newcomers", Multy taunts Crusty's pineapple topping-attack to rile her up in a way to get a way out of an attack, much to the villain pizza's anger.
• Power Incontinence:
  • An issue for the second generation of Kazoom Kids. Due to coming through the portal when it was glitched via activation on only a single fragment of the Kazoom, their powers have a tendency to fizzle out on them, often in the middle of usage. When this happens, their powers overamplify. In the case of the villain Kazoom Kids, this causes them to create far more chaos than they intended.
  • This would prove to also be the case, albeit lesser, for the third generation of Kazoom Kids. Running on two pieces of Kazoom let them mitigate their powers more, but still caused them to fizzle out on them at the worst times.
• Previously on…: Each episode starts off with a small montage of scenes from prior episodes to catch up with the next piece of the arc airing.
• Protagonist Journey to Villain: This is the plotline for Kid Fury. After being swayed by Mr. King's offer to join the villains purely to prove his strength and grow out of Kid Kazoom's shadow, he ditches his friends for their side after having been an unwitting mole for the villains. While he seems reluctant in his choice, he's still too stubborn to accept wrongdoing. One of the plotlines of the heroes is to bring him back so they can return home.
• Red Eyes, Take Warning:
  • Like his previous iteration, Mr. King, the lead villain, has bright red sclera. This version tops this off with red irises as well in a darker shade.
  • Finn, even before his transformation to Kid Fury, has red irises. This ends up solidified further when he sides with the villains.
• Red/Green Contrast: Kid Fury is mostly red, but a few parts of his costume are green.
• Rubber Man
  • One of Multy's abilties is her multitool features on her head having the ability to expand to great lengths.
  • One of Trasher's powers lets him extend his arms to long lengths by supplementing them with his garbage slime.
  • JellyBeam's main power, being candy-themed, lets her stretch her arms like taffy.
• Running Gag: Various reoccurring gags appear throughout the series:
  • Professor Daninsky busting into his classroom to expel Kai, Finn, and Mia, only to find no one in the room.
  • Super C and Jack the Juicer attempting to duel each other, only for someone to crash into them in the middle of the battle.
  • Doc Vroom's obsession with ostriches.
  • Smellvelous attempting to open the Crystal Museum, only for something to shatter the all-glass building.
• Sentient Flytrap: Sinistrap, having a flytrap as her object representation, is able to summon gigantic flytraps that have minds of their own, reacting to her beck and call for attacks. Outside of her transformation, Sylvia has a pet flytrap named Chompy that reacts far more aware than a standard plant would, transforming into her flytrap bun in Kazoom Kid form and acting like a secondary mouth.
• Shifted to CGI: In contrast to the webseries, which was 2D animated, the series is wholly in CGI.
• Short Screentime for Reality: The majority of the show takes place in Kaboom City, on an alternate dimension from Earth. Meanwhile, the few scenes seen on Earth are limited to just being inside the school, due to Professor Daninsky's classroom being the location of the teleporter.
• Shout-Out: Doc Vroom performs the "AKIRA slide" on the Bite Attack during his battle against the Robotoxics in the episode "Candy Challenge".
• Sleepless Alarm Clock: The episode "Speedy Kazoom" sees the Kazoom Kids on a late night mission throughout the city. Their mission ends right at the start of a new day, with Enigma, who is carrying an alarm clock, alerting them to get up. The three of them merely throw their pillows at him in protest.
• Steven Ulysses Perhero: A downplayed example. Each Kazoom Kid has the start of their superhero or supervillain name share the same letter as their civilian first name.
• Sudden Eye Colour: In comparison to other iterations of the series, which gave characters simple black pupils with a highlight, the show gives characters various iris colors. The toy series that's tied to the show retains the black dot pupils out of ease, however.
• Suspiciously Similar Substitute:
  • In contrast to Kid Kazoom and Kid Fury being composites of existing characters, Multy is inspired by, but not an exact version of, Toolie Kit, a Kazoom Kid from the Rescue Force series. The two of them are the sole girls on their team, yellow in color scheme, and have abilities that focus on multitasking creation with a tool-based theming. In contrast, Toolie Kit's object representation is a spanner, while Multy's is a multitool.
  • Doc Vroom takes a lot of elements and fulfils a similar role to Doctor Volt, the Ultra Rare of the Power Machines series. Both are rounded-body goggle-wearing scientist SuperThings that secluded themselves from the world in their underground labs, only to be convinced to return back to working with the heroes, along with being good friends with Enigma. The only difference is that Doc Vroom is a motorcycle helmet, while Doctor Volt is a plasma ball.
• Sweet Tooth: Joy, and by default, her Kazoom Kid alter ego JellyBeam, loves candy. As a civilian, she wears a necklace with wrapped candy and chocolate bar beads, she transforms into a wrapped candy-themed superhero, and she's on a permanent sugar high in personality due to how much candy she eats. She even willingly went into the Kazoom portal to avoid having to share her candy.
• Synchronous Episodes: The episodes "Magma Mission" and "Raging Volcano" take place concurrently with each other. The former episode focuses on Kid Kazoom and Multy going to the volcano, while the latter focuses on Kid Fury doing the exact same.
• Title, Please!: Each episode has titles, but they're never shown on-screen. Rather, their names are said by Super C, with the name of the episode in digital descriptions.
• Tornado Move:
  • Airblast has the ability to spiral his arms around, creating a miniature tornado.
  • Sourbette has the ability to spiral her head around, creating a whirlwind of ice cream globs that freeze anything they come into contact with.
• Transformation Sequence: Due to the Kazoom Kid powers not being a permanent swap for the characters, along with being on a timer, a special transformation sequence is shown with the kids transforming into their Kazoom Kid forms, the outfits somewhat "melting" onto them, along with their skin changing tones.
• Updated Origin Story:
  • While the canon of this series retains the concept from the webseries having Enigma and Professor K with past history to each other, it does it in very different ways. While in the webseries, Enigma was a child assistant to the Professor that became privy to his evil ways, in Kazoom Power, Enigma and Professor K were originally both human. Their fight over the Kazoom transformed them into SuperThings and created Kaboom City in the process.
  • Mr. King and Professor K, despite still being villain leader and subordinate, also have major role differences compared to the webseries. In the original series, the two were childhood friends that took on the heroes as revenge for being made unworthy. Meanwhile, in Kazoom Power, Professor K creates Mr. King as a stronger component for the villains, only to be usurped by his own creation.
• Voice of the Legion: Equilibra, being a Legendary SuperThing that represents both Heroes and Villains at the same time, speaks in two voices at once, a masculine one and a feminine one. They are able to shift their scales to one side to briefly take on one faction and one voice: the feminine voice is their Hero half, while the masculine voice is their Villain half.
• Was Once a Man: The episode "A Legendary Origin" reveals this to be the case of Enigma and Professor K. Enigma was originally the assistant to Professor Kornelius Kazoom, a scientist that created the Kazoom purely for his own fame and fortune. During a squabble of Enigma trying to stop the professor from overloading the Kazoom, the machine broke, sending it into overdrive, which transformed the two into SuperThings and created other ones, while also ripping open a portal to the new Kaboom City.
• World of Technicolor Hair: In contrast to the webseries and bio comics of the original era, which gave the Kazoom Kids pre-transformation designs natural haircolors, along with any with unnatural colors having them obviously dyed, the Kazoom Kids of this era pre-transformation have wildly colored hair. Even ones that are feasibly normal hair colors, such as red, go beyond what would be considered "natural" in the hair tones.
• Year Inside, Hour Outside: The episode "Speedy Kazoom" reveals that Kaboom City works on a far faster time than on Earth, which means far less time has passed on Earth, much to the relief of the Kazoom Kids. A full day in Kaboom City is only a handful of seconds on Earth.
• Yellow Eyes of Sneakiness: Like the toyline, villains are given yellow eyes as their obvious "tell". Ron Ron, in contrast to his original iteration, is given yellow eyes to solidify that he's on the villains' side this time. Kid Fury is also given yellow eyes, despite being labeled a hero, causing prejudice from the established heroes.
• Yellow/Purple Contrast: This makes up Multy’s entire color scheme; most of her body is yellow, but the edges of her goggles, her gloves, and a ring on her shield are purple.
• Youthful Freckles: Mia's face is dotted with freckles, fitting her young and energetic personality. She notably keeps them in her Multy form, even with her skin turned bright yellow.
