I remember dreaming about this show in high school but having no idea wth i was dreaming about. I didnt even recognise the show right now till i saw that dude's odd purple hair and it all clicked.
I didn't recognize any of the characters until the blue Furok came up and then it went from "hmmm this sounds familiar but probably just a really generic fantasy story" to "OH!!! I SAW THIS!!!"
When I was a kid, I had a friend in grade school who told me they were "ancient Pokemon cards"...and I've never forgiven him for tricking me like that.
I remembered always waking up at around 5:00 on Saturdays and tuning in to 4Kids. And always would be loosing my shit on this, Yu-GI-Oh! and Sonic X. I miss my childhood.
We legit had the same childhood. I would wake up at 5 or 6am and go to CW4Kids just to watch Magi-Nation, Winx Club, Cubix, TMNT, YU-Gi-Oh!, Do-Re-Mi, Choatix, and Huntix. My favorite show in the channel was Sonic X, Winx Club, and B-Daman Crossfire. Too bad some of the shows I mentioned stopped airing half-way through, which left me confused when I was younger since I'd be wondering where's the show.
My personal favorite was Rollbots. I missed a lot of episodes back then though since I kept falling asleep. Honestly such a great show even to this day. The creator is putting together a reboot, and he posted his script for a potential pilot on his website. 4Kids is super nostalgic to me. Honestly makes me sad that Saturday morning cartoons have basically died off. There were some really great shows that came out of that era.
Yeah Magi-Nation was my favorite show, but ever since Cubix took over this show, I just forget about it and then I got into both Sonic X and Yu-Gi-Oh Zexal
I remember my local BlockBuster pushing this series if you rented the GBC title you'd get a booster pack for free. I bought alot of booster packs and starter sets from BlockBuster, my hobby shops didn't carry these cards. This series has some good nostalgic memories, I feel like playing the gbc title now.
I used to watch this every Saturday morning and i compleatly forgot it exsited untill a few days ago, I couldn't recall the name and felt so stuck, Thanks for making the vid lol. I did some googling(now knowing the name) and it aired on CBC (Canadian Brodcasting Corporation) from 2007-2012. It clicked, this **is** that show.
Please do Magi-Nation J/k. I was born in 1990 and have played tcgs (mostly Magic) my whole life and hadn't heard of the card game until years after it was dead and didn't know there was a show until you and people in the comments started mentioning it. How did I miss this?
I never watched the show or played the card game, but I loved the GBC game. I was immensely disappointed that it didn’t get more popular. I’d say it was one of the best games for the GBC.
I remember Magi-Nation as the video game and the ads sold me on it. Never got it because as a kid, I had no expendable income and games were a luxury. The ads did advertise the card game as well and I vaguely remember a TV show but I never came across it. Glad to see Kohdok gave the game (both of them) the thumbs up and I'll have to see if I can track down the GBC game.
I genuinely miss the concepts of this game and actually had no idea the cartoon existed. Didn't have a television at the time. Plot sounds about right compared to the other cheesy shows of the time.
i remember this one show that was on netflix, i dont remember the name of it though. basically these four kids had been studying at this little place away from people to train and stuff (i forgot). they all had their own like, creature, pet, things, i think one had a dragon looking creature and another had a little rock dude. and they were color themed, one was blue, another was red, the two siblings were like, brown i think then the bad guy happens, kind of similar to what happened in magi-nation, and the kids go on an adventure to save the world...and stuff also spoilers, the youngest dies in the middle of the show so thats fUN
I had no idea that this was an actual card game. I found this as a gbc game at a Zany Brainy back in like 98-00 Then promptly forgot about it until I saw an ad for the animated series years later; honestly this series makes me more nostalgic for the store than the game
The TV series just tosses out the storyline from the GBC game. By that time, the rights had changed hands from Interactive Imagination to Cookie Jar Entertainment.
I don't play it competitively but I'm pretty sure Yu-Gi-Oh was a pretty simplistic game in the early 2000s It's the new rules with the pendulum XYZ link summons.
I have never felt this much nostalgia in my short life EVER but could you check out kaijudo I remember watching it as a kid I think It would be a very good episode.
Thank you. I've been trying to remember shows like magi-nation and huntik and only remembered a small creature calling a boy g-abriel but needed to find the show. Once again, thank you.
god i know i'm late to this video but i'm so glad to have found this and other people who knew about the show. at times it felt like a fever dream but i'm glad it really Did Exist. good time
You love all the same things from my childhood and more... Its actually amazing. Wakfu, Bionicle, Magi-Nation, Stormhawks... what next, Oban? Oh wait you did a video on that too and I somehow didn't see it. Your channel is my heaven, I love it.
Funny. I literally discovered and subscribed to Kohdok 2 days ago before seeing this video. Also please make a quick video telling people that epic story media has uploaded the entire Chaotic series on their RUclips page as part of their plan to gauge public interest.
It took me over 10 year's to find what this show was called. I loved this show as a kid and was not surprised I got into anime and fantasy type tv shows when I got older after revisiting bits of this show. Definitely a catalyst for me 😂😂😂
It would be so cool for Magi-Nation to come back in board-game form, or something akin to another really token heavy game, Keyforge. Keyforge is a unique deck game by Richard Garfield, creator of MTG. In total you need about 7-8 sets of tokens for different mechanics in the tabletop card game. Each deck in Keyforge is unique, having been procedurally generated by an algorithm, and cannot be customized, as they are meant to be played only ever as is. P.s. I highly recommend Keyforge to anyone craving an immersive card game experience, but not willing to drop a ton of cash on a game you might only ever play once a week or so at an LGS event, or with some friends in school/work. I haven't had this much fun with a game and organized play since Innistrad/Return to Ravnica block standard in Magic.
I've tried playing the gba game on an emu and didn't know about a series or an actual card game. I watched this out of curiosity since I never finished the game.
Negative, you do realize you have set off into the universe a foreshadowing device that's probably gonna lead to this game coming back somehow right? With everything that has been announced lately, i'd be worried
The Hyrens in the games were basically Dragons, Deep Hyren being one of my favorites. I hope they reboot this franchise, but up the artwork to an even higher level.
6:13 That very lie started a running joke with my sister that still goes on to this day. Whenever we're joking around and tell a lie (always something silly), we call each other Agram. We loved the show and I'm really glad you did a video on the series as a whole! I had an even larger nostalgia rush when you mentioned the MMO. I was really into Arderial as a kid so being an Arderialite in the game was a dream come true. So many Friday nights spent playing it and going on adventures with my main squeeze Xyx (a dream creature made of clouds). Wish it was still around... I loved how it used the soundtrack from the show!
I absolutely loved this game back when it was popular. The card shop I used to go to did a demo tournament where I learned to play, but there were only 4 of us that continued to play regularly, so the shop never ordered boosters for us to open, which made expanding our decks and collections very difficult.
The rights to Magi-Nation were acquired from Interactive Imagination by Cookie Jar. Cookie Jar was acquired by DHX. DHX became WildBrain. Unless the rights expired or were sold, they should still be held by WildBrain.
I only played the GBC game (which has held up surprisingly well), but I had a strategy guide that also had a full list of the cards in it. What I really enjoyed about those cards was not just the artwork and colors, but the funny little blurbs at the bottom
Critical research failure. The show does not exist to enhance the card game. The card game was canceled years before the show was aired, and the show has a significantly different story than the card game did. One of the interesting elements of the card game was that it had an evolving story that was actually influenced by the outcomes of certain story tournaments.
Season 2 didn't debut on Kids' WB/CW4Kids, so that could be why. Instead it premiered on ThisTV's Cookie Jar Toons block, and 12 of its episodes went unaired and got released online somehow
To deal with tracking energy, we ended up using plastic toy coins to give them energy equal to the currency value, but before we came up with that solution, we'd use the pebble tokens that would come with Pokemon theme decks
I kind of wish that you would do a video on "Galactik Football". This both entertained and infuriated me. I believe an intelligent, handsome man like yourself would actually be able to figure how to articulate this better than myself. And i simply would enjoy listening to your voice as you break down the whole "story" of Galactik Football.
So im gonna be "That guy" for a moment here. what ended up happen among magi nation duel was the game was based like magic on 5 regions of the Moonlands based on the dark side of the mood. Tony Jones was a key character in the story not only for the show, but as a center piece of the early lore of the card game. heres as best of a tldr version i can give. the base set of the game was fun but had very noticeable rules and text issues with cause rerelease of the base expansion known as unlimited. From there the next set was awakening to which the core region aka the core of the moon was introduced. while yes most players had mono region decks. some deck were willing to splash other regions and pay the penalty cost for local meta game etc etc. the small amount of power creep were the shadow magi. corrupted version from respected regions. Shadow magi were allowed to only play core cards with certain regions if the card allowed those shadow magi to play them. i.e "this card can be played by naroom/cald/orothe etc etc shadow magi" in addition beyond the extreme power creep of the shadow twins. it was no until the set Nightmare's dawn where the game was on the brink of self collapse. That set has over 50% off erratas due to the sheer amount of vague interactions between the paradwyn and bogart regions not only sharing the same cards but leading to somewhat mirror matches leading judges to have hard time with rulings.
We would still have this treasure if kmart hadn't been in charge of all shipments of this game in the u.s. they went bankrupt and we lost the game permanently
@@gamerblisters Actually the tank started to go bankrupt when one of the lead designers wanted to push a ban list and cause tension among the staff and yugioh had a anime/manga
@@lolchaos13 kmarts distribution rights loss surely didn't help you cant get cards if noone moves the product,also magination had a cartoon , brief comic series and gba games
I loved the show as a kid! I never knew that it was even a card game lol. But I'm so glad I found this video and channel b/c a lot of things I was obsessed with as a kid are talked about here haha!
So MC dies, goes to a high fantasy world, learns magic, dies, gets reborn in a new, low fantasy world, with access to the magic MC learned in the high fantasy world.
Two things - first - YOURE TWO WORLDS ARE COLLIDING Second - Did you see that Chaotic creator Bryan Gannon promoted a new RUclips channel with all the old episodes season 1-3
It's one of those cartoons that I suddenly recall every year or so for absolutely no reason (as in, randomly, with nothing to possibly spark the memory)
have to say, that i am loving your videos. Getting to know what happened to old stuff i haven't seen in forever is really nice! For example! I remember Magination, I never truly watched it. I just remember seeing it on tv, while eating food at a restaurant. So getting to know how everything turned out is really nostalgic.
I just rewatched the series. And I still definitely enjoy it. Man the memories tho... I'd see it every Saturday. I started out leaving it there waiting for Sonic X, but then I began to love it
Dude, I've been trying to remember this game for years now. Thanks for making is video. I forgot all about this game. I had a friend on my school bus in elementary that had these cards and YGO. Needless to say, I ended up being a bigger YGO fanatic but, I always thought the creature design for this game was amazing. I've been doing research on creature designs in fantasy games and I'm applying this to how I draw monsters for my own upcoming mmorpg. This was actually one of my childhood favorites.
I have had a lot of scenes and moments from this show stuck in the back of my head since I was a kid, but I just couldn't figure out what it was called. I think I remember enjoying it on Netflix!
If I recall, the cartoon wasn't out until LONG after the card game had stopped being published. It was a fantastic and fun game, but it needed a lot of micro management to handle, and would work so much better as a digital game now.
I honestly thought magi nation was just a fever dream when i was young
I thought the same lol
I remember dreaming about this show in high school but having no idea wth i was dreaming about.
I didnt even recognise the show right now till i saw that dude's odd purple hair and it all clicked.

As soon as he said "saving someone from the bad guy" an ad with Elmo laughing pops up and I couldn't stop laughing.
Yes Elmo the greatest shadow magi

Did you also download free RAM
Anyone remember Hot Wheels: Battle Force 5? Always wondered what happened to that show.
Yea I remember taht
Yeah i watch it in youtube

That was werid and give me hellboy vibes

This show was my only Saturday morning cartoon. My mates and I used to role play as the show’s main characters. It was a dark but happy time.
Magi Nation? (takes long sip) that's a name I haven't heard in a long time
I remember making my own Dreamcreaters based off this and forcing lucid dreams about this world
Magi Nation is a Canadian show and I love it. I am obsessed with it. I'm obsessed with the realms.
The CCG was out of print by 2002, 5 years before the show aired in 2007.
I think this was on kids wb at one point.
Yeah and Cw4kids too
Finally a Magi Nation video!! Magi Nation is such a nostalgic show. It's so sad that the show was cut short and there wasn't a season 3

What about what happened to Zoids, Legend of the Dragon, Jackie Chan Adventures, and/or Deltora?

Using amulets/artifacts to summon creatures... Reminds me a bit of Huntik.
Also... Need to make sure I do plenty of playtesting for my card game...
To deal with tracking energy, we ended up using plastic toy coins to give them energy equal to the currency value, but before we came up with that solution, we'd use the pebble tokens that would come with Pokemon theme decks

I was introduced to the series via the Gameboy Color game. It was too confusing for lil ol' me so I kinda forgot it even existed until now.
It's one of those cartoons that I suddenly recall every year or so for absolutely no reason (as in, randomly, with nothing to possibly spark the memory)
Magi-nation has scanning
Pokemon has catching
Yo-kai Watch has medals
have to say, that i am loving your videos. Getting to know what happened to old stuff i haven't seen in forever is really nice!
For example!
I remember Magination, I never truly watched it. I just remember seeing it on tv, while eating food at a restaurant.
So getting to know how everything turned out is really nostalgic.
The last scene I remember seeing was the blue fox armor guy finding the book of elders in water and that's it. That's the final scene.
Love this show. Definitely gonna watch again sometime. The nostalgia.. 🥺
I was absolutely obsessed with the gameboy game and TCG but had no idea there was a series with it. Looks like something I'm glad I missed, honestly
I just rewatched the series. And I still definitely enjoy it. Man the memories tho... I'd see it every Saturday. I started out leaving it there waiting for Sonic X, but then I began to love it
I loved this game when it first came out. I always wished it went far, cuz the art (and music for the GBA game) were so cool.
Dude, I've been trying to remember this game for years now. Thanks for making is video. I forgot all about this game. I had a friend on my school bus in elementary that had these cards and YGO. Needless to say, I ended up being a bigger YGO fanatic but, I always thought the creature design for this game was amazing. I've been doing research on creature designs in fantasy games and I'm applying this to how I draw monsters for my own upcoming mmorpg. This was actually one of my childhood favorites.
I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS!!Neg is always reliable when I’m thinking about the past
THIS IS THE SERIES I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR FOR YEARS
Finally!
Yay!
You know what needs a review? Di-gata Defenders
That show was dark as hell but so much fun
You didn't mention that Vrok was imagined up by the main character as a kid, which is why he came to mind in the show
I’ve been trying to remember the name of this show for like months now, and I finally found it.
I have had a lot of scenes and moments from this show stuck in the back of my head since I was a kid, but I just couldn't figure out what it was called. I think I remember enjoying it on Netflix!
16:52
Its uniba-saru which means universal, i think
せ (Hiragana): se
サ (Katakana): sa
It's a common mistake, i have the same problem all the time 😂
レリック (Reri~ku) : Relic
The Dreamers being chosen by the monsters reminds me of negotiating with demons from Persona and SMT games
Had to scroll down this far for someone to say this
If I recall, the cartoon wasn't out until LONG after the card game had stopped being published. It was a fantastic and fun game, but it needed a lot of micro management to handle, and would work so much better as a digital game now.
I was pretty sure the show came out a few years after the card game died. I'll have to double-check that.
Yeah, the show came out in 2007, 5 years after the last card set.
My first time even hearing about this franchise or Tabletop Simulator for that matter.
