Mia and Me is a children's television series created by Gerhard Hahn.[6] In the United States, it aired on Nickelodeon's Nick Jr. Channel from May 3, 2014, to December 25, 2016. The show mixes live-action with computer animation.
Mia and Me is entirely owned by the Belgian company Studio 100 via its German subsidiary Made 4 Entertainment (m4e) which has owned it as of 2016 and was acquired by the company in 2017. Before the 2016 German buyout, the show was a GermanItalianCanadian co-production between Hahn Film AG, March Entertainment and Rainbow S.p.A.
A feature film titled Mia and Me: The Hero of Centopia was produced by Made 4 Entertainment, Hahn & m4e Productions, Studio B Animation, Studio 100 Animation and Flying Bark Productions. It was released in Germany on May 26, 2022.
After the death of her parents, a 12-year-old girl named Mia Marconi is gifted a game that her father had made in life, taking the form of a large book called The Legend of Centopia. Inside is magical art and writing and a password, which when read a special way, allows Mia to travel to the magical island of Centopia. The land is filled with mythological creatures, including: winged elves and unicorns. While in Centopia, Mia changes into a winged elven girl with the unique ability to talk to unicorns. She also meets and befriends 2 elves: Yuko, an elven warrior, and Mo, an elven prince who wants to be a good, noble king just like his father, King Raynor.
With the help of her oracles from a magic book, Mia, Yuko and Mo must find the pieces of the trumptus, a magic instrument made by an inventive pan named Phuddle. It has been captured, broken apart into twenty pieces, and scattered by an army of dark elves called the Munculus, led by the evil queen named Panthea. Panthea (concerned about her aging appearance to the point where she always wears a mask) needs the unicorns' horns for their rejuvenating powers. Every time a unicorn horn is destroyed, more of the island of Centopia dies. Eventually, a winged unicorn named Onchao is born, who can easily make the desert bloom again and restore the horns of other unicorns. After Mia and her friends succeed in defeating their adversaries with a fixed trumptus blast, only Gargona survives. They have reached the final pages of the book and Mia returns to her world, where it is nearing the end of the school year at the boarding school in Florence with her admirer, Vincent, her roommate, Paula and her bully, Violetta Di Nola. Mia plans to revisit Centopia soon.
In the second season, Mia spends her summer holiday at her Grandfather's farm in Tuscany with her Grandpa Renzo. There, she meets a worker named Mario, who is her second admirer and (towards the end of the season) learns about her ability to travel to Centopia. In Centopia, an evil circus director named Rixel, who we learn has been working for Lord Drakon, king of the dark elves, sets his sights on catching Onchao to please his master. Along the way, Mia meets a flute-playing elf named Simo, his mother, Tessandra and the 3 nature unicorns, Balanda, Zato and Yolika. Later in the season, Violetta discovers Mia's secret after finding a piece of her magical bracelet. She travels to Centopia and takes on the identity of an elf named Varia. As Varia, Violetta becomes one of Mia's allies and begins to show a kinder side, and eventually becomes Mia's friend.
In Centopia, a new winged unicorn, Kyara, who is Onchao's younger sister is born. Meanwhile, Gargona is joined by a cockroach villain named Dax as they try to catch a golden unicorn horn to bring their master, Lord Drakon back. Along the way, Mia meets up with Yuko's sister Kuki, an swamp elf named Lola and her swamp unicorn friend, Mimola. In the real world during her summer vacation at the Poletti farm in Alto Aldridge with her friend, Sara (who is blind), she finds Mia's bracelet and travels to Centopia. She is so relieved that she can see in this world and she even has the power to see the invisible spy bugs who follow Dax. At the end of the 3rd season, Dax and Gargona succeed in taking Onchao's horn. Mia and her friends arrive at the castle where Gargona and Dax are talking to Drakon about their prize. Yuko and Mo foil the villains' plot by breaking the horn into pieces. Kyara heals his horn. Dax leaves Centopia and Gargona stays on the island. Back in the real world, Sara makes the decision to go back to her old school instead of a new school in Milan.
Mia misses her summer vacation with her parents, but she's still reading about elves, unicorns, pans, and dragons and a new threat in Centopia awaits when an evil toad named Toxor uses his dark magic to turn the guards into mindless slaves. Mia, Phuddle, Onchao and their new, elven friend Nino travel far and wide, searching for the great storm unicorn named Stormy, who talks and speaks to animals and helps Mia and her friends defeats Toxor and save Centopia from toxic. Back in the real world, Renzo finds out that Mia's magical secret was traveling to Centopia, making friends with Yuko and Mo, talking to the unicorns, flying with the elves and saving the island from Gargona, Panthea, Rixel, Dax and Lord Drakon. It reminds Mia of how her mom and dad passed away by a car accident, but next summer, she's coming back to either the Marconi family's farm in Tuscany or the Hathaway family's farm in Alto Adige after school in Florence.
Centopia is facing an existential threat: original parts of the primeval continent are approaching and Dystopia, home of Gargona and her trio of Dark Elves: Rixel, Dax and Lord Drakon, has been set in motion as well! A race against time begins, as Mia, Yuko and Mo start their quest of finding the rare ingredients for the antidote: the Potion of Unity. Along the way, they get help from a noble, handsome guardian elf named Riok. In the season finale, Mia, Yuko and Mo are battling against Gargona and saved Centopia from the Dark Elves.
When Mia first becomes an elf, she wonders what happened to her, and she is super joyful when she finds out she grew wings. Despite all that, she has trouble flying in Season 1, and ends up crashing when entering Centopia. She does start getting better at flying near the end of Season 1. Her landings in Seasons 2, 3, and 4 become a lot better since she’s gotten better at flying.
