After posting in that other thread, I decided this needed the spotlight. You'd think with such a hokey premise and a cheesy theme song it'd be just some random animu-inspired kid's fluff right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUsFLVjobug


This show really had no right being as entertaining as it was. I remember first watching th earlier episodes From the surprisingly dark imagery (that only got darker and darker as the show progressed) to a great villain in The Skeleton King and a very impressive voice cast with Mark Hamill (as the aformentioned Skeleton King) Greg Cipes, Kevin Michael Richardson, Tom Kenny, Kari Wahlgren, Clancy Brown, Corey Feldman, Ashley Johnson, James Hong, and Hynden Walch, this show was way more than just a hokey premise.

If you wanna check it out for yourself the whole series is up on YouTube (though not in the greatest quality): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-UKcuWcOJM&list=PLs-SPkb0a877BeHyywrJf4gFE9QQ-WBoE

this show was pretty great all around, memorable even.

this show could be actually considered half anime considering half the staff is japanese, and i think the english and japanese dubs would be released about the same time. wish they made that movie thou.

It was better than it had any right to be. I'm surprised it didn't do better.

better than Gym Partner

This was a show that looked phoned-in at a glance, but then if you actually watch it it starts to feel like there's some heart behind it. I will say S1 felt by the numbers, but around S2 things improved a lot.

Is there any fiction where skeletons are the good guys
>>
The episode where the skeleton king comes to earth and merges with some sort of fucking huge worm then flies off into space, with Antauri "dying" and shiro becoming feral fucked me up as as a kid, because I thought that was the end of the series

Then maybe six months later they started showing an episode of the next season already halfway through and I was confused as to how Shiro was back and why Antauri was white now

Skeleton Warriors I guess

This series definitively needs more attention. The sound design might be cheap, but the atmosphere is top-notch.
Felt great when season 2 gutted the status quo hard too.

Bit of trivia, the maker of CN's Teen Titans also worked on this.
>>
>>92531583
Yeah, it was a thing. I could watch it if it didn't have an cliffhanger ending an actually have season 5.

That's what they said about SJ...

I never really got a chance to watch it
seeing how back then my parents canceled cable right before it came on the air
but I did remember seeing previews of it and was hyped about it
>>
I remember this show was on Jetix, and always aired in some really late hours.
I didn't like it at the beginning because the whole premise just sounded too stupid to me. But after watching couple episodes I've sucked in plot. Love plot twists like what's the past of Monkey's creator, Alchemist.

I blame this entirely on the title.

>>92531583
This show is actually extremely good. A shame its forgotten.
>>
It pisses me off how it ended in a cliffhanger

>builds a portal into the dimension of unspeakable evil
>assumes the portal is impenetrable without actually testing it
>lets his pets run around his lab freely and screw with lab equipment
>turns the portal on it front of his pets just to impress his friend
>is surprised when a monkey screws with the portal and everything goes to shit
The entire series could have been prevented by Alchemist not being a goddamn idiot

Most of the cartoons on Jetix were really good and all of them were underrated. The only Jetix cartoon that gets recognized on /co/ is WITCH(which was also good) and that's because of waifus.

>season 2 starting soon
>fast forward to my girlfriend's birthday
>first episode of season 2 was starting that day
>no reruns for a long time
>tfw when you stay alone in the living room, watching the show, while everyone is having fun at the party

I was 10, so, in retrospect, it was a good decision.
>>
Can't forgive the studio, for leaving the creators of the show on a damn cliffhanger...
>>
>>92531583
>whole series uploaded to YouTube

I enjoyed it whenever I caught an episode on Jetix, but the delayed lip-syncing to mimic poor anime dubs of yesterday ended up getting on my nerves.
