Médabots

About a year I came across this show. I am a person who watches pretty much everything if I got nothing to do. But I soon found that I rather liked this show.

Unlike most Japanese shows it does not try to sell a product (Yu-Gu-Oh!). Sure there are the Medabots toys but the show never indicated that. It could have been just another cartoon which did not even have a toyline to support.

The story is great. Ikki a young boy who has always wanted a Medabot finds an medal in a river and buys an outdated Medabot which he names Metabee. But Metabee is a little different than Ikki wanted because he has attitude and will not obey Ikki.

But over time the two develop a friendship and that will help them face every challenge and the people who want to steal Metabee's rare medal.

I love the show because it has great characters and a lot of humor. The characters are well done and are nice and distinct. Ikki could have been better because he is the typical arrogant kid (think Pokemon's Ash) but that changes slowly as well.

But Metabee is great and so is Rokusho another of my favorites. And who could forgetb Mr. Referee? I also liked how the French Team was depicted in the final episodes with the World Robattle. They tried to win with cheating which is so realistic. So French.

In all this show is a must see! Try it for yourself, you will not be disappointed!

The show is a masterpiece. Sure it might be just the nostalgia of me watching it with my Grandma 10 years ago but I have to say it's worth i. As a teen today i ve watched all 91 episodes and damn, it is better than i remember. Of course the first 2 seasons have a great story and a suitable ending. Although I would like to see more about those aliens, the third season got me off guard. The only thing i hated was REMOVING CHARACTER THAT WERE MAIN IN THE STORY. Like why do you have to remove Karen off the show. If we pass the fact thst most of our beloved sub-main characters got thrown away, the continuation of the show was ok i can say, the ending satisfying (plus touching) and the style same as the first 2 seasons. I am lookikg forward to medabots fans until this day.

Medabots is a very interesting cartoon with good action, adventure and excitement and good story plot too! This show is about these kids and other people who have pet robots called medabots, with A.I. (artificial intelligence) capabilities. The main characters of this show are Ikki and his medabot, Metabee who try to reach their goal in winning the Ro-Battle Championships! I remember when in the summer of 2001 I was taping a lot of the Digimon reruns on Fox Kids and I saw a commercial saying, Medabots coming this fall to Fox Kids. So I liked the show because this was creative and then when Fox Kids changed their network name to Fox Box, ABC Family picked up this show along with some of the other good action shows on ABC Family like: Spider-Man, Spider-Man Unlimited, Digimon: Digital Monsters, X-Men and The Incredible Hulk. But now its no longer on ABC Family all because of those stupid Power Rangers hogging most of the Jetix ABC Family time-slots!

BOTTOM LINE: PRETTY INTERESTING CARTOON WITH GREAT CHARACTERS, STORY PLOT AND OTHER THINGS!

A story of a Young boy who has no Medabot in a world Where children and adults alike have one. One day Ikki Finds a medal ( Medals are the souls of the Medabots) And Puts it into an a Medabot ( the Body ). This medabot was Different from most medabots, for one it did not fully obey its Meda-user which was odd...As the story progresses we learn that Medabee is not a normal medabot for he has a RARE medal. Will medabee and Ikki be able to Win the medabot world championship or will he be stopped by those who seek to rob them of their rare medal?

I for one Loved the show it was really humorous and great story line from the action to the emotions they all showed for one another, BUT I honestly didn't like season 3 , i stopped watching after like 10 episodes of season three, I mean the voices were just HORRIBLE and the humor didn't come along with the new voices at all especially since the ones that were changed were the most important characters. Either way all up to season 2 was real nice I give it a 9-10, as for season 3 ,well....it got Little...to bl eh, they started to overly add stuff to the show ( medabee transforming into a mini car now...plz)

We are well into the third season of Medabots in North America and I've seen most of the 52 episodes in season one and season two. Medabots is clearly aimed at elementary school kids judging by the simplified character design and storylines but can be enjoyed by adults too. I've watched other kid's shows like Pokemon, Flint the Time Detective and Mon Colle Knights that have the same tone but they seem repetitive and boring. In Medabots the show isn't just about fighting but the distinctive characters in that world and how they interact. Most episodes can stand alone even if there is an ongoing storyline like the Robattle Championship, Dr. Meda-evil or the Kilobots. Check it out and give it a chance. Shown on YTV in Canada. By the way Julie Lemieux does a good job taking over the Ikki role in season three.
