Line 12:
=== ''Blackstar'' provide examples of: ===
* [[Ambiguously Brown]]: As mentioned above, Blackstar was originally going to be African-American, but ended up just sort of brownish with straight hair. [[Fanon]] holds that he's Native American.
* [[And Knowing Is Half the Battle]]: Averted, amazingly enough for a Filmation series from the Eighties. Any moral lessons are left implicit in the stories themselves.
* [[Applied Phlebotinum]]: The Sagar tree is the source of magical fruits and nuts that somehow support the entire population of the planet. Many episodes involved the Overlord making some kind of attack on the tree.
* [[Bifurcated Weapon]]: The StarSword, wielded by Blackstar, and the Overlord's PowerSword, are the split-off sections of the PowerStar.
* [[Captain Ersatz]]: The "Trobbits" were at one and the same time expies of Peyo's [[The Smurfs|Smurfs]], [[J. R. R. Tolkien|JRR Tolkien]]'s hobbits, and [[Disney]]'s [[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Disney film)|Seven Dwarfs]].
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: What Blackstar is supposed to be.
* [[Ear Wings]]: Gossamer
