"Mighty Magiswords" was Cartoon Network's first online original series, debuting in 2015. The show premiered as a full-length TV series in 2016 and ended in 2019. Carrozza also served as a voice actor — voicing over a dozen characters including one of its main characters, Prohyas Robert Warrior — as well as composer and executive producer of the series.
