Monsuno (American-Japan Co-production)
Since I didn't see a topic on this, or at the very least, find one (wouldn't surprise me if the search engine isn't working), thought I'd post a topic on this. Though, honestly, I doubt I'll get many posts.
Copying and pasting from what I posted over at Toonzone. I'll ad more information when it's available.. Quote:
Anyways, I'm... going to watch, but I may end up waiting to watch the Japanese version if the dub really is as bad as I think it is. Hopefully the show will have some sort of quality to it. |

At any case this one looks like typical Saturday morning cartoon. Kami No Puzzle was at least sort of charming in an amusing way but this one has "it's for kids" written all over. I hope this one doesn't keep milking the same stuff over again like its competitions do every single time.

Bumping this up.
The series will premiere on Nicktoons at 8:00PM on February 23, which is a Thursday. There's also been two additional promotional videos released. One which is 1 minute and 30 seconds long, which you can view here, while a 60 second clip on Nicktoons site, can be viewed here. |

Saw the premiere. I'll post my thoughts a bit more so, but I'll just leave the staff and cast members in here for now.

I'm actually enjoying the series, to be quite honest. The problem I am having though is with the dub and the script. The voice acting can be passable at times, but I feel like Bren, for example, the decision for who they casted and the voice they chose for him to use, are completely unacceptable.
I'm really hoping a Japanese air date gets announced sooner than later. With the toyline not coming out until the holidays, I'm concerned that may also mean the anime won't air until Fall or Winter of this year. Hopefully not. |

Okay, some information on the Japanese front.
The series will broadcast in Japan, starting in October 2012. The toyline itself will launch in September 2012. As for broadcasters, while it was not mentioned who would be broadcasting, it should be TV Tokyo as Fremantle's site had listed this several months ago before they took that information out. Additional information can be found here (in Japanese, though). |

TV Tokyo has launched their website for the series, which you can view here.
Also listed is a staff and cast listing, which I took the time out to translate: Quote:
It does, however, seem to be keeping the same music as the US version, which somewhat of an alright thing. Though would have preferred a different composer for the Japanese version, in all honesty, but this is fine. Series writer listed as expected, so nothing out of the ordinary. It's also worth noting that even though it says Larx Entertainment is doing the animation, it appears that the actual production studio that owns it is however Studio Hibari. To be honest, I'm not even sure if Larx is even a real studio itself or just a sub-section of Hibari. |
