Show concepts
Borys and Gurys
- Everything has a black-and-white mentality to it; there is one neutral group called datori's that are neither Bory's Or Gury's. The datori's are a mixture between the lawful good nature of the Bory people and occasionally the mischief of the Gury people.
- * Any character with a suffix of "Bory" is a hero while anyone with a suffix of "Gury" is a villain. While this sounds simple and childish, that is how things are dealt with in Toobalooba.
- * A "Bory" can never become a "Gury" by doing an especially heinous deed and a "Gury" can never become a "Bory" by doing an exceptionally admirable deed.
- Although rarely seen, Borys and Gurys can co-exist with each other when the need arrives.
- *Doctorbory comes to give Coldygury some orders to rest when he was infected with Singeritis. The "disease" was spread from Coldygury to Lukybory and to Wangury and Cozybory before being contained.
- *In a previous episode, the Ghostygurys have also helped Noonbory and his friends defeat the plans of Wangury and his henchmen.
- *Rosygury has enlisted the help of Kikibory by pretending to be a Bory in distress. Using Kikibory, she has managed to steal valuables that belong to various members of the Bory tribe.
- However, Wangury never seeks of help of any Bory because he wants to conquer Toobalooba. He even makes enemies of the other Gurys when they become nice to the Borys.
- *For example, Wangury steals Coldygury's sled when he wants to have a sled race with the Borys. At first, Coldygury was furious at the Borys for not having his sled and attacked them with snowballs. Wangury turned out to be the culprit near the end of the episode.
- Mamby is the only "Bory" that cannot speak, but can whistle and transform into just about anything, such as a parachute. This character has the additional ability to stretch its body far.
Abilities
- Taste – Having this super ability allows Totobory to taste things without actually consuming it. This is good for when Totobory has to compare some food-related item to another.
- Hear – This super ability permits Jetybory to hear things from far away.
- Sight – Lunabory can see things from farther away than anyone else.
- Nonsense – Lukybory has a hard time making sense of things; he has a younger sister named Kikibory who has a supersonic scream.
- Common sense – Noonbory uses this sense to figure out the most logical thing to do next. He is the only Bory with an older relative seen in the show.
- Smell – Pongdybory has the ability to smell things even though it occasionally followed by a powerful sneeze.
- Touch – Cozybory has the ability to feel things using the sense of touch.
