Dinosaur King

I wanted to joke about this show being a masterpiece, but I do want to do a simple, direct review (I'd like to do something in depth, but it's cool).

Dinosaur King is a kids anime dubbed by 4kids, it's dumb, and it's fun. If you expect more than that, you'll be dissapointed, but if you enjoy shows like this or walk into it knowing what it is, you'll be fine. I have a ton of memories with it. It's dumb at parts, but it's fun.

There is a constant plot and character development, and while it doesn't hold too good a candle to seasons of say Digimon or even Pokemon, once you get attached to the characters, it gets pretty fun.

The animation and art style is... interesting. The show was animated by Sunrise, and in some episodes, it really shows. The character designs are very unique and cute, especially the baby Dinos. Speaking of the Dinos, when they get big and become CG monsters... well... it works for emphasizing the Dinosaurs and some scenes work, but it'd be a complete lie to say it isn't messy.

Overall, it's a cute kids anime, and yeah, I'd at least say the 4kids dubbing is some form of a plus. You'll definetly recognize some actors if you've watched other 4kids dubs. It's stupid funny in the unique way 4kids dubs are.

It's easily available, so I'd suggest at least try out an episode.

I have really enjoyed watching this show - the action in this show is great and always full of energy; within the first season, the plot although at times can be a bit bland and repetitive at the start it does ultimately become a lot better in the end (no spoilers here). Within the second season the show takes a completely alternate turn with the plot adding a whole new different story; finally combine all of the above with fantastic voice actors from other shows such as: Pokemon, One piece, and Naruto. as well as the fantastic battle animation style (which through using CG actually fits in an anime very well in this case) and you are left with this fantastic show.

My son loves it ..he is 3years old ... the rest of us deal with it because it keeps him amused. The song is catchy and it will get stuck in your head. Good storyline and funny more adult one liners.

I haven't watched much of this series but it is not a bad anime and I remember tuning in to some episode however I lost track. Honestly, I just don't get this trend with Pokemon, whenever people see something like a monster collecting (i.e Digimon, Yo Kai Watch, Bakugan) they just bring Pokemon into it.

Here are reasons to watch it:

Good plot

Likeable characters

Good animation

Get to learn about different dinosaurs Great voice acting

The only bad thing about it is the villians being too cliche for my taste. But other then that its pretty good. As I have said on my Bakugan review it doesn't matter which one came out first all that matters is if you enjoy it.

Comparing this show to Pokemon is like comparing a Banana and a Garlic.

I remember watching this anime on 4K! DS TV back in the day although I couldn't find the Japanese version anywhere online if I found it I would re-watch the whole series in Japanese and see what it looks like.
