A fun fact about the cartoon: The show literally had a total of 5 voice actors. Each voiced one of the five leads, and were all spread out amongst the various antagonists and supporting characters, except for Karen Strassman. Since Jinja was the only girl on the team, that also meant she voiced literally every other female character in the show. It's quite a testament to the whole cast's talent that they were able to showcase that much range. Methinks a lot of the budget went into marketing and merchandising, so condensing the show's cast helped save costs where they could

I remember watching the show but thought that some episodes did better than others when it came to the monsters themselves given that they were just seen as that and no real connection was made with the humans like other shows of this genre. There was also the antagonists where I though the yellow team was the more interesting faction compared to the reds since they were a organized military unit which created the monsters for warfare. Last episode I watched was when the main lead had the detonator to purge the monsters along with the crystal that made them from there world which would prevent the destruction of earth as a whole. With him just chucking it in the water saying that there's possibly another way to prevent that without ending the monsters.

I loved these when I was little, I would play all of the Bakugan rip offs and love every second of it. The designs and way the toys expanded legitimately is the reason I became a mechanical engineer

Sometimes when KZreadrs talk about stuff that failed they rip it a new one (pun intended). I think this is the first time I've seen someone respectfully lay something back to rest like burying a baby bird you found on the sidewalk.

Monsuno is my hidden gem!!! The opening of the show was a banger! The show itself, while not the best, was very entertaining to watch. The toys and game could have been better developed in my opinion. Very good overall. I personally still love this franchise and hope they do something with it in the future. Doesn't need to be a full on reboot, perhaps a side-game or a 12 episode season to experiment a little bit.

Seeing Ninjago mentioned as a spinning top game on here brought back a lot of nostalgia. I absolutely loved playing that game with my brother and I wish that they kept it up!

Monsuno made my childhood i never missed any episodes when i was young i always went to streets shops that were happening in greece and we called them μπαζάρι i remembered my first monsuno was quickforce i always got them on those street shops and toy shops i was having huge collection but i dint had the stadium But sadly i don't have them anymore man monsuno was the best show i watched back in the day hope u read this jettkuso love ur vids

I would have gotten into monsuno if the stores I had in my area stocked them, I actually loved the TV show and had one of the most killer theme songs.

This was such a distant memory! I remember when this first came out seeing it and thinking it looked cool but I never knew anyone who had it or who knew how to play so I never picked any up and now after your video as someone whose already a die hard Bakugan fan and now learning there were only ever 101 Monsuno released I thought better late then never c: I'm excited to see where this new journey takes me. So thank you Jett, can't wait to see more amazing content in the future, keep up the amazing work. CX

I honestly dont remember any of this stuff. How awesome that your channel grew from this and you were able to return to it after all these years

This honestly takes me back sad to see the franchise die out but think of it like they learned to crawl so skylanders could walk. Most of my memories come from the anime the openings just being fire, and first discovering it as a nickolodeon web game not knowing what it was until the anime which kid me genuinely thought the show was based on the game XD and use to draw the monters, put them in the tiny kinder surprise capsules and just launch them

Now... I asked for this video and I'm so happy to see this... Happen :') The theme song was amazing!

I remember myself being small and watching monsuno with my best friend after its stoped being popular. You couldn't find it anywhere basically (and I was living in a somewhat bad country, so things like Bakugan arrived to my pretty much late. REALLY late. Shame, but hey, on the bright side it's not forgotten. Maybe we will even see the remake one day.

Loving this "history of toy-based battle-games" content. I'd love to see more videos like this about other popular or unpopular IP's. Keep it up Jett.

The wrap up of this video had me in tears. You are like all of our inner child's brought to life through nostalgic wonder

I loved this reminder of Monsuno, it was a cool concept for a game similar to Bakugan(even though I never played it), and the show was awesome, even though it had nothing to do with the actual card game it was still cool with a kick-ass theme song that I still love and jam too. Also in the show the catchphrase was Launch, but they usually said the Monsuno’s name for example,” Lock, Launch” that was what the main character said

I remember when I found out about Monsuno as a kid. Me and a friend both decided to get one each thinking to ourselves, "This is the gonna be the next big thing after Bakugan." We brought them to school once, realized how finicky they were, and that was about it. I think it also didn't help that as far as I know the show never came out over here

My church had an underground Ninjago fight ring where kids straight up gambled. It was wild and I LOVED it.

I'm actually sad that I only heard about Monsuno from yours and Kohdoks really old Monsuno videos way back then when I was a kid. Because I literally don't ever remember seeing them in stores besides being only at a few Chuck E Cheeses to win them with tickets.

Man I remember seeing the commercials and stuff as a kid but ignored it cause of lego and bakugan, it really is sad it died quick since products like these really can be fun if they're improved, guess it came out too late 😰👍🔥

The fact I remember those good days of collecting bakugan toys and I remember when monsuno was taught to become the next big thing. One of the reasons why I'm so glad similar franchises are making a come back. The bakugan relaunch was great aside from the lack of variety like they had in the past , but the idea of chasing around to find these cute and awesome little figures is just the best. Thanks again for the awesome content! Loved it back in the day and still love it!

This video just made want to play the first bakugan video game because of the desert field theme playing when the monsunos were spinning in the Battle arena

Damn i totally wasn't expecting skylanders to be in this, and what you said about skylanders is definitely true, for like 3 years I kept asking for them and now I have a box full of them that I'm looking to sell lol. I'm only keeping a few for the memories and for their sculpting, like Spyro and Cinder, but damn yeah looking back on it, skylanders must have killed a bunch of franchises

Something funny is that I had a stadium like that and thought it was a weird beyblade stadium for years till now and I’ve only had the stadium and not the toy

I briefly played the original Ninjago spinner game. You get your character card with stats that dictated which support cards you were allowed to use. One such card gave you a two block high wall to protect your ninja from your opponent's attack.

I played the Ninjago spinner game. My favorite card is Jay’s Throwing Star. During the spin phase, you can THROW THE CARD AT YOUR OPPONENT’S SPINNER. I love that you can attack your opponent physically, imagine if you could do that in Bakugan! You can defend with proper placement sure, but image throwing a metal card at a Bakugan mid-roll.

I was trying to ask you what other Bakugan like toys you like in your last stream so this video is really good timing!

I remember playing the ninjago spinners game exactly one time, it was some kids birthday in elementary school and he gave everyone who was invited a spinner + mini figure, played exactly one game before I was "eliminated" from the tournament they were doing, But I still have the spinner somewhere deep in one of my Lego bins.

This is possibly the best retrospective on Monsuno I've seen so far. This is so well written. And it gave me a new perspective on my favourite little series Funnily enough, I didn't take much interest in it when the cartoon first aired. It seemed alright. I could tell it was mimicking Bakugan. Years later, I vaguely remembered this show and seeked it out. I found it again and fell in love with it. The cartoon is a hot mess, to be perfectly honest, but it's just right amount of ridiculous and cool to be fun

2:55 XEVOZ MENTIONED⁉ I JUST got into that toyline earlier this year and while I only have one 100% complete Xevoz figure (Inferno Fury, which has some gorgeous translucent parts, the missile launcher for mine still works, and I got the sticker sheets + manual that were still mint!) I absolutely love the world-building and intricate species lore for this forgotten toyline! 💕 I'm still so surprised that my 20~ year old Xevoz figure still has super firm joints and I saw how other collectors with their own Xevoz figures have also equally aged well with their joints! There still is a very small but passionate collector base for Xevoz figures and stumbling across their niche review blogs are so much fun to look into, but it truly breaks my heart to see how such a well made Stikfas-adjacent toyline failed so badly 😭💔 EVEN THE ELUSIVE TIE-IN COMIC FAILED AFTER ONE ISSUE 😫

XD gotta love the bakugan background music at the very beginging. I also still have one of my monsunos, it was a ram like hypogyph

I feel that the price point they were asking for Monsuno also hurt them, but I do know I liked them. However, the best item in the entire line is one that came during Combat Chaos, or in other words, after the toyline had died. The Multi-Bomb. While I'm not entirely certain on its function, it had a spinning top that could be loaded up with 8 Monsuno that would launch while it turned, and you were supposed to strike a pad at the base with your own core to pop the top open until all four panels opened up. Honestly, I still hope Jakks has the molds around and reuses it as a 'boss' for the Sonic line they've got going, but I doubt they will.

Holy shit, I RANDOMLY found one of those "Transformer Botshots" things and had NO idea what it was until this video.

The First B-Daman was in 1933, predating Pokémon. It was originally a Bomberman spin-off series.

Bro this was ligit a trip down memory lane I wish they rebooted this

I miss 2011 alot. it's so hard to find a fun yet engaging and a tinsy bit complex game that doesn't involve a screen these days. beyblade,4wds,bakugan,bdaman or whatever was a simple fun thing, but it was a thing. and i really do miss them. cause there's nothing that will ever feel as crisp as pulling that cord or pushing that trigger or taking your mini 4wd to the local track that you got to go to once a week.

when you play Monsuno, you can call out the name of your Monsuno, example: Backslash, Lock or any of there names Launch, I still have my monsuno cores back than and its still cool back in the days

honestly thought the whole ninjago spinning tops things were a false memory lol

Really liked and appreciated that ending statement about plans, something I’ll have to remember. On a different note: SKYLANDERS GAAAH! I loved that franchise but I still haven’t finished it because my hand-me-down Wii is busted :( at some point I’ll get a new one or figure out some way to play it on PC.

I only ever had 2 Wild cores, thought they were pretty cool. What I loved about ‘em is that in-person, once they really got spinning it really looked like there was a glowing orb in the center, no joke!

Jettkuso: for some reason no one remembers that Ninjago started out as a battling top card game. Me who still has all his old cards and spiners: I mean I do but yeah. After the pilot "season" I don't think anyone cared much even with the new releases up till the end of the serpentine season. And yes I did play it.

Max Steel figures and TV Show, LEGO and Star Wars Toys killed everything here at Mexico. Sadly we never got to hear about ninjago, Monsuno or Skylanders. But Medabots, Pokémon, Bionicle and beyblade were also kings at some point, I miss those times.
