      I vaguely remember this show, but I definitely don't remember Djarmander. That sounds so similar to Charmander that it feels like it almost has to be intentional.

    What I really love about this show is that the characters actually defeat the villains by being cunning and figure things out.

    Honestly, Magi-Nation feels like the younger sister franchise of Chaotic. It tried and somewhat succeeded in the long run, but not many remember its existence and success. You might want to take a look at the Monsuno series at some point.

    This was one of my "Saturday Morning Shows" that I always got up to watch as a kid. If there was one moment that stuck out to me after all this time, it was the revelation that a twelfth stone, the Core Stone, existed, and had been in the hands of Agram the entire time.

    • @rickyrosay33977
      @rickyrosay33977 Год назад +1

      I still remember the dark stone was the reason the final dreamers father I think (vague memory) was sick the whole time

    Like the Spider Riders and Huntik theme, the theme for this show got me into it. I remember there was also an online game but I didn't try it so not sure how good it was as I was more so focused on the Spider Riders online game. I was fairly consistent watching with season 1 but around season 2 I stopped seeing it on TV so I dropped it. Would be nice to revisit.

    • @RaisonLychi
      @RaisonLychi Год назад +3

    Out of all the Pokemon-esque shows that filled the mid-late 2000s, Magi-Nation was one I was always curious about but never got around to watching. Gave it a shot online a few years back and...yeah, it's ok I guess.
    Now if you ever decide to do a review on Spider Riders...now THAT was a great show that didn't get nearly enough love.

  • @squirrelisamazing6522

    Omg when I was kid I LOVED this show! I barely remember the characters or plot, but I can instantly recognize all of the creatures hahaha

  • @Voxflux
    @Voxflux Год назад +6

    I started with the vido game first, really enjoyed playing it from beginning to end, even explored to find the hidden areas for the stronger creatures called "Hyrens".
    I did get into the TCG, and the game really clicked with me surprisingly, even made a pretty stronge Core deck. Went to my first ever tournament, but no one showed, I was the only competitor, store owner cracked open a starter deck and dueled me a few rounds and gave me a Magi-Nation tournament t-shirt, still have it to this day.
    I really do have a fond memory of Magi-Nation. I still have my cards.

    Plus that opening song was pretty good

    Oh my god oh my god oh my god????? I used to get up super early on Saturdays to watch this on the CW! Every Saturday from like 6-7am they would show cartoons like Sonic X, this show, and Cubix. I adored that time, and I’m so happy someone has brought this show to peoples’ attention.

    My 2 strongest memorys of this show are 1. The wooden staff and bowl being legendary items that could, if I remember correctly, create any magical artifact ever.
    And 2. The mountain that was the oldest actually being the smallest in the entire range.

    @simpanzee1006 Год назад +4

    As a kid I remember watching this every weekend for years with repeat episodes and never truly saw the ending and i know why now. there was an online game I remember where you can mix and mash a bunch of creature parts, write a description an type even? then you could print out the front and back of the cards to stick them together. also the guitar in the intro was awesome!

  • @TricksterMinon
    @TricksterMinon Год назад +3

    I still remember the Blockbuster Promo with the Gameboy game, where they had starter sets and booster packs. Once the promo was over, so was Magi-Nation for younger me, as my hobbist shops never heard of it, and never carried, or ever thought to order the cards when I kept asking if they carried them. Which sucked cause their web site featured all the cards, further sets, and stuff I could never get as a kid. Seeing this cartoon is so weird, as the Gameboy Color and early card sets will always be what I imaigne when I hear Magi-Nation.

  • @cormiergames
    @cormiergames Год назад +2

    My first interaction with the card game was when one of the creators was at my local game store and i watched them play the game and i was given a deck and he showed me how to play the game. He went over the lore and pulled me into the game. I was hooked after that.

    This show has lived in the back of my head for years. I could never ever find anything online (due to me not fully remembering the name) or even anything irl. Searched hours of recorded Saturday cartoons left in my basement cuz I had such fond memories of this show. As soon as I saw the thumb nail I knew this was that show in my head. Thankyou for giving me peace of this show

    It's interesting to see this property analyzed from the perspective of someone who is primarily familiar with it through the cartoon and not the card game or GBC game. Thanks a lot for spinning this one up. It was a fun watch.

  • @jadegoggin1246
    @jadegoggin1246 Год назад +1

    I grew up with Magi-Nation as a kid as my dad liked to pirate weird kids shows, and I still love it to this day. I never read how to play the card game, but I got a single card pack when I was a kid and have kept it as a "card collection" ever since. I loved that show, and would probably be exited if I could get more cards even today, as a collection item or something

  • @dzzplayz9276

    I actually still have cards from this game. It was easily one of my favorite card games of all time and I've spent years trying to get my friends to play it on TableTop Simulator with me.
    I couldn't get into the show with how jarringly different the art was from the card game. The art in the game is fantastic

    I never knew about the game cards & video games when I first saw this series.
    I saw it on tv as a kid, and what drew me to it was not only have creature companions by your side, but the anime art style.
    But it's pretty neat to learn more about it.

  • @thatnerd_inyourhouse1652
    @thatnerd_inyourhouse1652 Год назад +2

    The only reason I knew about this show is because my moms old car had TV screens in them that you would put DVDs in to play movies and stuff. One of the discs that we watched a lot was a Super Mario Bros TV show and after it finished all the episodes, it would play the trailer for Magi-Nation. I would fantasize about that show for hours, but never got the chance to watch it.
    I've always wanted to watch it but never got the chance to, but now we live in a more modern age and I might binge watch the show one day.

Taken by surprise I told them about this fun show where magical monsters were captured in stones and used to battle others in a fantasy type world. They asked me what it was called but I couldn't remember. That bugged me so later I looked for it online and I couldn't find it. At least 8 years pass and my memories of the show gets hazier and hazier before finally I see this video! Thank you so much for answering the question I've had for so long! Heck now that I see it again I even remember playing the online game for a short while. Damn its such a rush to get an answer to something that has bugged me for so long.

    I loved Magi Nation on the gameboy, between the music and the dark storyline for a kids game it was awesome. I also liked the design of the hyrens much better than the ones in the show, instead of some weird mumbo jumbo unicorns you have a mushroom dinosaurs, water dragons, etc.

    Omg i totally forgot about Magi-Nation! I used to watch it on my old Nabi tablet as a kid all the time along with other niche shows like Spider Riders for example- I ligit loved it so much and made ocs and fanart in my notebooks constantly(I also had like the hugest crush on Strag lmao) - I dont know how i forgot it but thank you so much for reminding me of it!

    That GBC game has some impressive work on its sprites.

    I got excited I saw the characters. And all the flashbacks of that show. Also had a habit to look for it and everything just in case. It's amazing

    My god I've been trying to think of this damn show for over a decade. I saw it when I was like 6 and found it enjoyable. Its name was forever lost to me and here it is, in my RUclips feed
