shockingly, this series is 100x better than any other show based on video games, its still cheesy as hell, but to the point where its so enjoyable, this show gets the official stamp of Soul Food, that's a high honor from me.
Hmm, I hear differently from other people. I for one do enjoy The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, but that's just me. I also enjoy the Super Mario Bros. ones as well (both Super Mario Bros. Super Show & The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, but I'm iffy on Super Mario World).
I've gotten some chuckles out of this series, but plotwise it feels mostly very manufactured. There's a lot of really common (especially in this time period), done to death tropes and really bad convenience writing, like if you pay attention the characters automatically jump to the correct conclusions in often outlandish scenarios (or sometimes the wrong conclusion. They let King Krool go all the time when he steals it, but when donkey kong is framed after saving it a dozen times, he gets banished). I think the earthworm jim cartoon had some really good writing, and I agree that the super mario bros. super show fits the "cheesy but good" category, especially the live action segments. On a final note though, DKC has some really catchy songs and DK's voice actor has a wonderful singing voice.
+soulpower132 I like this show but i'd say the best videogame shows are two unfortunate cases of no localization for you XD Hoshi no Kirby(which got butchered as right back at ya in the west) and Bomberman jetterz.
Other than the fact that there wouldn't be a plot if he did, I don't understand why King K. Rool didn't just grab the coconut away from Baby Kong. There's a reason why something easy is described as 'like taking candy from a baby'.
1:42 the only time you will ever see cranky kong bust a move and hes damn good at it and did you know donkey kongs nephew in the games is diddy as stated in donkey kong country returns
Maybe DK has a diaper brand, more importantly. Where did the diaper come from? Younger Cranky was still wearing his old guy vest. Shouldn't DK only have a tie?
Let's be honest here, they were probably too lazy to make a whole new look for a baby Kremling-like design, so they just used the same design only shrunken down. After all, they used Baby Kong's look in Baby Kong Blues, so it had more of a purpose instead of just using a new design for a few seconds.
11:27, "Baby" Kong's belch sounds like the loud burp from "The Terrible Thunderlizards" episode called "Some Like it Hot" where Gen, Rex swallows the humans in a glass of water.
@@lanoraelliott4330 HEY! Chill out you two. Why can't Diddy Kong be both? He and Donkey Kong both have the same last name right? That's one thing they have in common that matters to me in the least.
A previous upload I saw of this episode said it's likely that at the time this was made the crown was part of the character model rather than a seperate layer. One of the season 2 episodes fixed this as K. Rool removed his crown for a second.
Why do you think that? As SMASHING as that idea would be, I think Benedict Campbell played the role just fine, buuuut then again I like him for his work as Papa Q. Bear in the 03-04 Berenstain Bears, as I grew up with that show as well =)
Why'd they have to model Young Cranky after Bluster? 😡 I mean, sure, Bluster's head shape resembles Cranky's, but, did they *have* to include the flesh-colored inner part of his lower lip 🤨? Also, I know that in this series it doesn't mention that Cranky is Donkey Kong's grandpa, but, you'd think that Young Cranky would look more like DK than Bluster 🤨.
I would argue that there wasn't a design for a young cranky kong, but the manual of dkc does explictly state that he is the og donkey kong. not to mention a design of young cranky kong does exist (its donkey kong's design in donkey kong 94 btw). so if anything, the writers didn't read the manual.
So the youth serum turned Cranky into his younger self, Donkey into his baby self plus a diaper for some reason, and K. Rool into..... the same exact proportions he is now, but shrunk to the size of a crown, and also it shrunk his clothes and made a second crown to fit him while he...................... I'm... I'm going outside now.
Those people at Nelvana are so dumb. Wouldn't it make more sense if Cranky's youth formula shrunk K. Rool down into an egg instead of a smaller grown-up version of him?
Actually, alligator hatchlings just look like smaller versions of the adults for the most part. The physical differences are small enough that they would have been hard to animate in a show with this one's level of detail.
Well, true, but correct me if I'm wrong, but having Diddy as DK's "nephew" was stated in Donkey Kong 64's manual, right? DKC's SNES manual didn't state such thing, neither did DKC2 nor 3's manuals. This cartoon was released in France around the same time DKC3 was released and in USA one full year before DK64's release, so the writers on this cartoon didn't knew Rare's instance of DK and Diddy as an honorary "uncle-nephew" relationship.

*violently chucks vacuume cleaner at a random shelf* "I want a banana."
And that's still a big fat mood lmao
So Is Everyone just going to ignore the fact that K Krool has multiple crowns underneath his crown?! CROWNCEPTION
Angel grande K Rool wears a crown to protect his other crowns
He’s so kingly
His side b says otherwise
No wonder why his crown-boomerang attack is so a thing. That crown stack is hefty, so it hits hard!
21:21. King K Rool. “I’ll give you a whole bunch of bananas.”
23:05 So he was wearing a tiny crown underneath his normal size crown?
Micheal Polant I saw that too apparenty the crown grows over time like him
Yeah, same here, also, he didn't look younger at all, just tiny...
555redkid fuck you man
What did I do..? I was agreeing with you, jeez!!
555redkid idk because it sounded like you wanted to fight and if so fuck you put them up
Director: king k rool how many crowns do you want?
K rool: *two*
So that's how K. Rool got his bloodshot eye. He got punched too hard by DK's Megaton Punch!
ANYONE NOTICE DIDDY WASNT HOLDING ONTO ANY VINES IN THAT JUNGLE
I love how young cranky as the original DK is nearly close to his arcade counterpart
The way K. Rool goes "...Oh dear." after Baby Kong changes back into DK has me lol'ing every single time
I would've liked to have seen young Cranky try to chuck a barrel at the Kritters and do some old fashioned damsel kidnapping.
The Aldenator I’m starting to see how Mario was able to beat Cranky’s ass all those years ago; he’s all bark and no bite. 😓
3:49
Cranky: If I was 40 years younger, I’d bash and I’d sma- . . oops!
That made me life! 😂😂
I love all the animation mistakes, though they get away with it for being the early days of CGI, the crown was still on his head at the end
I honestly want a gif of Cranky's dance moves.
I can do that, but I don't know what part you are referring to.
***** 1:46 - 1:52
XD SOMEONE DO THIS IT WILL BE MY INTRO
Cranky in EP1: “Help!”
Cranky in EP2: “I’ll kick your ass mkay”
Other than the fact that there wouldn't be a plot if he did, I don't understand why King K. Rool didn't just grab the coconut away from Baby Kong. There's a reason why something easy is described as 'like taking candy from a baby'.
Young Cranky: Go easy on the Yo-Yos!
Cranky: What's wrong with Yo-Yos? I like Yo-Yos.
Totally LOL.
This was the first episode since it was aired on Teletoon back then. :)
What is that ture
1:57 🎵🎶 *I'm gonna show you, without a doubt! This old body will never give out- EEEYAH!* 🎶🎵
It's strange that King K. Rool still has the crown as a youngster, even though it's smaller while he's in his old one.
6:00 "coming in to the first turn it's donkey DONG?"
Private TwinkleToesI heard this too, actually.
19:43 "Hip hup, hip hup, hip hup, hip hup. Whatcha got! Squat!" 😂🤣
1:42 the only time you will ever see cranky kong bust a move and hes damn good at it and did you know donkey kongs nephew in the games is diddy as stated in donkey kong country returns
15:40 "Are you talking baby talk on company time?" lol
0:18 "I watch DKC for the plot."
So this is where they got the idea for King Kutout
Paper King K.Rool:The The Thousand Year Thiccness
Young Cranky should be 8 bit lol
there was actually a ytp about that. I don't remember its exact name, but it was made by a dead account named kamektv
i found it lol
No, that's retro cranky
@@lolman9630 Link?
Thank you so much for uploading. This is amazing
You are the best for having these episodes !!!!
Why couldn't Cranky just jump out of the minecart? If he survived crashing through the roof, surely he can survive a tiny drop.
Best show ever made
Kranky kong turn into the original donkey kong and donkey kong turn into a baby
I thought Diddy was DK's nephew.
I thought so too!
He is in the games, just not in the cartoon.
He is
*Diddy starts singing*
I regret everything.
11:49 "What a dork! A bonehead! An egomaniac!"
I think that's putting it mildly 😒.
11:51 "What was I thinking?"?! You *WEREN'T!* That's the problem!
2:57
Hey, it's King Kutout!
Wait, are powdered yo-yos just yo-yos but powdered or is it powder made from yo-yos?
If only he had the lasers
Yes
7:48 DK: I want a banana
Did anybody else realize the under-the-wire burn Cranky delivered? He offered the youth potion to King K. Rool. *He called King K. Rool old.*
He's got 2 nephews actually, Diddy and Baby Kong.
10:46 You can see Diddy's hairs through his mouth.
The anatomy of these primates confuses me, not to mention the growth of a baby kremling
Yep, it dumb
Must be bad animation from the 90s.
The animators were paid, like, a dollar an hour probably
I really like that cross between Ness and Charlie Brown you have in your logo.
The source could probably be rendered on a GameCube.
Diddy dancing and singing like Michael Jackson and work place accidents. Good stuff.
Missed opportunity to have young Cranky look like classic style DK.
6:58 "Come on you ooze sucking pond-gacks. I'm in the mood to wrestle a couple of overgrown newts."
"What-dey-Who're you calling a newt?!"
12:50 So nobody’s going to talk about their marching song?
he grew a new crown out of his baby head at the ending?
21:40 k rool: so long baby Kong
Baby Kong: *cries*
Time to open!
Time to ope-
I-
I-
*L U C Y*
did he just drink yo-yos?
well he likes it so yea :p
"powdered" yo-yos
10:57 Kong in the Box
This show is amazing
Young Cranky and Baby DK saying Banana Slamma was funny
22:21 so that's how king k rool got his bad eye
I thought DK and Diddy jumped on his head. I thought He got a bloodshot eye from the pressure.
Why didn't Diddy realize that Baby DK's diaper says DK on it? 😅😅
Maybe DK has a diaper brand, more importantly. Where did the diaper come from? Younger Cranky was still wearing his old guy vest. Shouldn't DK only have a tie?
19:50 OH GOD LOOK OUT FLOATING BARRELS
14:13 Top 10 best anime songs
But I thought Diddy was DK's nephew XD
SlushiePlushie16 he is also his best friend
Mr. Glenn he’s basically all these things
Nephew, little buddy, partner
In the games Diddy is, but in the cartoon he isn't.
Let's be honest here, they were probably too lazy to make a whole new look for a baby Kremling-like design, so they just used the same design only shrunken down. After all, they used Baby Kong's look in Baby Kong Blues, so it had more of a purpose instead of just using a new design for a few seconds.
Candy:But-
Blusta: DontbedenyingitIbeencheckingyourtimecardexactly3minutesand46seconds....
*LATE*!
This is a guilty pleasure to watch
11:27, "Baby" Kong's belch sounds like the loud burp from "The Terrible Thunderlizards" episode called "Some Like it Hot" where Gen, Rex swallows the humans in a glass of water.
Bill and Scooter that are.
3:29 *"DOPES! A COUPLE OF BIG DOPES!"* 😡
No kidding. 🤨
3:32 it’s a K Rool spirit
when he drank the potion...
i love how this episode has the humor of now-a-days "hip hop,hip hop,,watcha got?" "a big fat butt" replace butt with ass and it will be flawless
R.I.P Aron Tager
11:10 Baby Kong wants the Banana cream pie
So instead of designing a baby K. Rool, they just shrunk him down! Didn't even remove the crown! Lazy!
BAppleJuice well most baby crocodiles are just smaller versions of the adults
Mommy!?
11:10 Dk's nephew... but Diddy's Dk's nephew
I don't get it. Why the need to hide baby DK from Candy? Just tell her what happend so she can help, dude.
because trusting a girl with a baby
Probably she wouldn't believe him
04:11 You're me? Or were me? 40 Years ago?
I think Cranky means 30 years ago, after all, the first Donkey Kong game, the arcade game came out in 1983.
4:11
21:21. King K Rool promises Baby Kong for some bananas 🍌
13:24 That Face crack me up XD😂😂😂
“Ey keep it easy on the yo-yo”
“What I like yo-yo”
this show is SO FUNNY
That face crack me up at 9:05
Baby Kong crying is like crash bandicoot saying woah
8:44 Baby Kong's Crying Is So Cute, WHY😭
i remember watching this as a kid lol
11:10 BUT DIDDY KONG IS DK'S NEPHEW
No Diddy is his friend
@@lanoraelliott4330 I read on Wikia and TV Tropes that he's *both* .
@@lanoraelliott4330 HEY! Chill out you two. Why can't Diddy Kong be both? He and Donkey Kong both have the same last name right? That's one thing they have in common that matters to me in the least.
I knew King K Rool was gonna drink that potion in the end.
21:27. Oh, so you want to play games, do you?
A previous upload I saw of this episode said it's likely that at the time this was made the crown was part of the character model rather than a seperate layer. One of the season 2 episodes fixed this as K. Rool removed his crown for a second.
18:22 History in the making, this is the prototype to Sonic 06's physics engine!
he went baby mode
22:00 (donkey grows)
(Suspire of k rool)
2:52 when King K Rool got slammed by a door he become flat😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Baby DK looks very adorable and cute.
They should've had Tim Curry as the voice of K. Rool.
Why do you think that? As SMASHING as that idea would be, I think Benedict Campbell played the role just fine, buuuut then again I like him for his work as Papa Q. Bear in the 03-04 Berenstain Bears, as I grew up with that show as well =)
I'm convinced candy isn't dating DK if she can't see the resemblance in baby kong
14:16 c’mon make the vines more than 3 pixels wide 🙄
The song is also just.... *no*
King k rules crown duplicated at the end
Why'd they have to model Young Cranky after Bluster? 😡 I mean, sure, Bluster's head shape resembles Cranky's, but, did they *have* to include the flesh-colored inner part of his lower lip 🤨?

They seriously need to bring this series back, and polish it.
"I didn't know DK had a nephew" -Candy
But isn't Diddy DK's nephew...?
No, theyre just buddies
Valyrian Steel Oh
ETimmer 32 maybe at that time, it wasn't point out of their relationship but now, diddy is consider his nephew
This show is better than Breaking Bad
So the youth serum turned Cranky into his younger self, Donkey into his baby self plus a diaper for some reason, and K.

@@josiahschiewe9618 Ok, but I doubt he was born with a crown and cape. And all they did for his voice was pitch it up slightly.
