I still can't believe they made an Ape Escape cartoon on Nicktoons. Like, why? It's not like Ape Escape was popular at the time. There were no new Ape Escape games being made, so it's not like they were promoting anything. So...why? It's so random.
Its system is reversed, the amount of your intelligence makes the helmet the opposite, so the monkey is the smartest animal, but with the helmet it becomes a little smart, and if Einstein wore the helmet he would become stupid. Much more stupid than the monkey.
When I first saw the trailer for this cartoon, I hated it because my expectations of what is next for Ape Escape skyrocketted just after watching the last episode of Saru Get Chu ~On Air~ 2nd. To be fair, looking back a few years later, it's not a bad cartoon. It just happened to come out at the wrong time. I find that the writing is more suited for longer episodes and each episode should have be at most 5 minutes. My main problems are that Natalie and Jimmy have generic and forgettable personalities which really annoy me and the scene transitions could have been better. I have to give Frederators Studio some credit. I would rather watch this instead of the PlayStation Move Ape Escape cutscenes.
Why do they use jimmy instead of spike? He's the main protagonist in the first game and is unlockable in ape escape 2. plus he's a more prominent character. Maybe these cartoons are extras from ape escape 2 or aired around the time of it's release...
Superdarkcloud666 I remember AE1 as my first game, and Specter honestly felt more of a threat in that game than any of the sequals because he came so much closer to his goals than ever. AE2 and 3 honestly felt like jokes to me because they made Specter weaker, he needed the freaky 5 to help him, in AE1 he did it all alone.
He wasn't weaker in AE3 if you payed attention. He was smarter and more resourceful. He also didn't "need the Freaky Monkey Five" to help him. He used them as pawns to do the dirty work so he could sit back and study Kai and Yumi. Also in AE1 he DIDN'T do it alone. He brainwashed Jake, remember? He could trap humans in cages and destroy a planet in 3. The original Spectre couldn't even stop his own monkeys from running over him for a basket of bananas.
Superdarkcloud666 mate, Specter in a suit looked lame af, the premise of AE3 was lame, because he was too dumb to realize chopping Earth in half would kill everyone. The music, enemies, story progression...everything AE 1 was was done better than AE3. What made AE2 better was they included the FM5 and made bossfights. AE3 took away any rival (Jake) had a forgetable soundtrack, recycled FM5 (unoriginal) i mean really.. and I remember the trailer and seeing them use transformations (namely the super saiyan lookin one) as a selling point, which is just copying Sonic who copied dragon ball z so in my opinion AE3 is the weakest of the 3
I'm creating a cartoon. It's called, Forgotten Tales! It's about these forgotten and obscure characters that no one remembers from media going on wacky and crazy adventures.
Jimmy is the must hated character of ape escape cartoon because he is very ugly, Natalie she is the must hated female character of ape escape cartoon because she is very anger temperamental.

Okay, the part where the monkey got adopted, went to college, and became a US ambassador made me chuckle a bit.
Why did I never see this on TV, I was constantly on Nickelodeon
It was on the premium cable sister channel on Nicktoons
These are where the music producer of the Nick show, ”Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!".
I’ve been looking for this for so long that I started to think that I imagined it when I was a kid 😂
The voice for specter is something to get use to, but I wish that his hair was spiked upward like how it was in the game.
Same here
Anime hairstyle in cartoon,cool.
26:29 his hair is just like it in the game
god its so awful its good
It's as awfully good as the Zelda Cartoon but less animation errors
Nah, the Zelda cartoon was far more entertaining than this crap.
gamephreak5 nah
It's so awful that my eyes and ears bleed after this. xD
@@gamephreak5 Cap
I've recently got into Ape Escape and I love these, even if they are kinda stupid.
So apparently if the helmet is used on a human, it makes them dumber instead of smarter.
Its system is reversed, the amount of your intelligence makes the helmet the opposite, so the monkey is the smartest animal, but with the helmet it becomes a little smart, and if Einstein wore the helmet he would become stupid. Much more stupid than the monkey.
I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would.
Same
I'm laughing and cringing at the same time
Jimmy without his spikey hair bothers me the most
Specter sounds like LittleKuriboh doing his Marik voice.
Wait... IT REALLY DOES!
I know rite :3
+BangersAndMashmonkey OMG XD
omg it does, lol
This would actually be watchable if Specter suddenly brought out the chainsaws
I want Specter to be my driving instructor
The storyboards for this show are amazing. This... this isn't.
Still better than Teen Titans Go by a longshot.
Crash's Underwear Anything is better then Teen Titans Go.
NO IT'S NOT
@@somesadnormie5881 TTG IS GOOD! RAAAAAAWWWWWWWWRRRRRRRR

@@sebastianloder3434 especially when people forget that there's a specific word (cough devolution) for it
Not sure if anybody has noticed, but the characters keep switching from having 4 fingers and 5 fingers. Why is that so?
The cartoon was made when the third games was release I'm surprise they used the characters from the second game.

+TechieWidget yeah this cartoon is so underrated
i ACTUALLY sorta liked these despite the flash animation
Flash animation was in its early days at the time. They wouldn't go extremely fantastic with it until the Mickey shorts.
@@kootunesscrewy very true
@@kootunesscrewy Proper term is rigged animation
How exactly do you adapt a childish, cartoonish series, and make something too cartoonish and childish to match?
there's a game where a character says damn (not that I played it)
edgy the edgehog?
Damien Mula I believe it's was a villain from Ape Escape 2.
Ikr, it's a special talent
mostmelon I won't lie...I like that slogan.
it's not that the idea was bad, it was just the character's they used that as a bad idea.
+doggone12ify yeah the character designs look nothing like the game itself

Thank you so much for putting this up! I love it so much

Tell that to Jimmy nutrins dad

But you can’t love food well you can
1:30 Gotch-gotch-GOTCHA!
Why is specter BRITISH
I think it falls under the catagory of so-bad-it's-good.
I didn’t realize this show came out back then
This needs to be a full fledged show!
It's Mediocre. It's just that the Ape Escape anime was a thousand times better despite it's low budget CG.
two different audiences and genres
one is a goofy slapstick spinoff
another is plot focused anime
@@kitterbug The anime does have a plot but it has a lot of unnecessary filler.
Why does specter have a nose
Why do they use jimmy instead of spike? He's the main protagonist in the first game and is unlockable in ape escape 2. plus he's a more prominent character. Maybe these cartoons are extras from ape escape 2 or aired around the time of it's release...
ayelos yundox It actually aired closer to Ape Escape 2 so it makes more sense that they made the characters relevant
They should've made an episode with jimmy and spike hanging out
It was made after 3 but was based on 2 specifically for some reason
Specter's dating a human?
this is probably the most underrated game in the universe. also, NICE FUCKING ANIMATION BRO
This arent his animations.............
Yo it’s the guy who plays Brawlhalla
I like specter
hahahaha i love this game series. Also nice video by the way
7.8/10 spike didn't have enoguh spiky hair-ign
+Austin Spurlock Not even spike.
***** derp i meant to say specter
+Kinas10 spike wasn't in this i think you mean Jimmy from ape escape 2 (which this was based on)
Acshually 🤓 he's jimmy. The protagonist of ape escape 2, the revenge xD
@@austinspurlock4647 and you blew it.
I love the first cut scene in the game when they can climb to the top of the scores and they literally start climbing up to himXD
An Ape Escape Cartoon - All Shorts
The apes look like puppets
Ape Escape Mad Cartoon Network
"PlayStation 2" off by one number there m8
Oooki ooki!
39 min of my life gone for this shit
Im too young to waste my life like that
Why is Spike called Jimmy in this?
Because its not Spike, Jimmy is his cousin
This ain't that bad. The human designs though are terrible.
Oh yeah. He was the same dork in Pumped & Primed too.
2:29 "size matters"
I like this show but it's SO innacurate to the game!
They tried to appeal to a western type audience. I don't care if it's inaccurate to the games
That moment you realize Sun Wukong in the logo in the Upper left corner
till better than saru getchu on air
How many jobs does Specter have? XD
Probably enough to budget making evil inventions.
Yes
Why does Specter sounds like Squidward from Spongebob?._.
This was probably made in Europe. Ape Escape 2 here had british accented voices, which did sound terrible sometimes. Check it out.
No wonder why Specter reminds me of IHE.
The UK voices were so bad..except Specter's was decent in the first game. but only in the first :'D
TsundokuMii ikr
SkyArtisan Sad truth mate
This is some johnny test shit right here.
*Whip crack*
THE ONE BEFOR PIPES WAS MY FALVROIT
For a second I thought that was blood they cut off of Jimmy. Not hair. Also Jimmy you're 10 that lady's going to jail because of you
I almost laughed at 6:29
ALMOST
Yes
Tip: Ape escape shorts wasnt show in other countries.
I honestly prefer the way they made Specter in Ape Escape 3. He was such a pathetic dork in 1 & 2
Superdarkcloud666 I remember AE1 as my first game, and Specter honestly felt more of a threat in that game than any of the sequals because he came so much closer to his goals than ever. AE2 and 3 honestly felt like jokes to me because they made Specter weaker, he needed the freaky 5 to help him, in AE1 he did it all alone.
But in Ape Escape 1, he's so overlydramatic and flamboyant, I can never take him seriously. He actually seemed sinister and menacing in Ape Escape 3.
He wasn't weaker in AE3 if you payed attention. He was smarter and more resourceful. He also didn't "need the Freaky Monkey Five" to help him. He used them as pawns to do the dirty work so he could sit back and study Kai and Yumi. Also in AE1 he DIDN'T do it alone. He brainwashed Jake, remember?

Spector was in Ape Escape was Nationality is British
These are ok. The flash isn't all that hot though. and the voice acting is pretty bad too.
i gotta say i have to make ape escape movie myself
If been look for this forever
For some reason. This cartoon has special place in my hearth
In your fireplace?
Y didn't jimmy just take the plug out and turn off the water

@@thatcomicandmangafanfromdublin Not really. And even then, I love for more crossovers with different fictional characters.
i still hate you
I can't believe not even one monkey was clubbed and netted. So lame.
It's more comedy oriented.
1:23
Why couldn't we just get the Ape Escape anime dubbed into English instead of this crap?!
G Truesdale you have to admit they are pretty funny
but this is good 😂
so cool !!!
if it wernt for this game i would be dead
2:31 That's what she said...
wrong specter is alan tuduk the proffesor is dan green natilie is ratchal preece the monkeys is andrea libman and jimmy is voiced by veronica taylor
