About Tronji

The Story of Tronjiworld

Tronji takes place in a computer-animated world called Tronjiworld. Happy creatures called Tronjis live there. But one day, a big problem called "Wobble" hit Tronjiworld. It caused a lot of damage, making the world lose its color and happiness. All the Tronjis started to cry. The Wobble even broke parts of Tronjiworld off into a place called The Gap, which is like empty space filled with floating rocks.

In each episode, a character called the Great Eek calls three kids from Peopleworld (which is what the Tronjis call Earth). He asks them to help fix the saddest parts of Tronjiworld. The kids use their special skills to help. At the same time, the Great Eek and Tronji-O try to find Tronji-I in Peopleworld. Tronji-I usually appears when something sad is happening there. The Great Eek and Tronji-O use special gem power from the kids to make things better in Peopleworld. This creates "Double Happiness," which helps put the broken pieces of Tronjiworld back together.

Meet the Characters

The Great Eek

The Great Eek is the leader of Tronjiworld. He lives in a big Dome and watches over everything. He has pale skin and wears purple clothes, including a tall top hat with a jewel. He carries a cane that also works as a magic wand. He uses his wand to put the broken parts of Tronjiworld back together. When Tronjiworld is sad or in trouble, he calls three skilled kids from Peopleworld to help him fix things. His special sayings are "Wobbly-I-O!" and "What a wobbler!".

Tronji-O

Tronji-O is a female Tronji with a red, egg-shaped body. She has a golden disc on her stomach and three short hairs on her head. She often helps the Great Eek bring happiness back to Tronjiworld and Peopleworld. Her twin brother, Tronji-I, always gets sent to Peopleworld when the Wobble happens. Tronji-O talks in squeaks, and her special Tronji phrase is "Nik-Nak-Nor." When she's upset, she cries loudly.

Tronji-I

Tronji-I is Tronji-O's twin brother. He looks just like his sister, but he is dark blue and wears a golden belt. When the Wobble strikes, he often accidentally teleports to Peopleworld. He usually appears in a sad situation there. Once Tronji-O can talk to him, they use their powers to swap places. This usually makes the sad situation in Peopleworld happy, but it can also cause a new problem in Tronjiworld.

Ooee-Ooee

Ooee-Ooee is a flying, cloud-like Tronji. He always says his name and flashes when he does. During missions, he gives one of the kids a ride to the place that needs the most help. This helps them get there in time for the "Happy Ending." When the Great Eek uses his powers to bring Tronjiworld back together, Ooee-Ooee turns golden. This happens because of "Double Happiness."

The Gap Minders

The Gap Minders are two guards who protect The Gap. To get past them, the kids must answer their "Impossible Question." This question is usually a math problem related to the skills the children have.

Episodes

There are 30 episodes of Tronji. Each episode shows the Great Eek and the children working together to solve problems caused by the Wobble, bringing happiness back to Tronjiworld and Peopleworld.
