In hindsight they all are, but my younger brain singled him out. While I do remember this show and the Fox Box... I moreso remember Ultimate Muscle and Kirby Right Back At Ya'!...

"Turtle fighting a dragon"... I think that was the one episode I saw, too. I remember wanting to watch more and just never seeing it on the schedule ever again. Also, Fried Ricer was voiced by Andrew Rannells, who later went on to play Elder Price in The Book of Mormon. Just something I thought was interesting.

[@KumoriGurasu]

I was not aware Andrew Rannells helped work for 4KIDS past "Pokemon Live", that's really neat--so why exactly do we give 4KIDS a bad time, again? Just because of their crummy business practices? They helped bring a lot of talented people into the industry despite their problems. If anything, there should be more gratitude towards them for that alone.

I feel like literally everyone saw this once, and then went and watched almost anything else.

[@IAteFire]

Nope, watched it religiously on 4kids every saturday morning

[@Maidenstear]

If I hadn't already subscribed, I definitely would have subscribed due to you bringing your cat in his entire house onto screen 😂

[@johnm.withersiv4352]

I don't understand your reluctance, it was a great show. I've watched it several times from start to finish streaming on a ...not quite royalty paying service.

[@storymaster21]

"these monsters were once edible and they still are you just aren't trying hard enough" hahaha.

Billiam: "there's just not a lot substance" Me: "ha"

[@TheAlison1456]

Finally, high quality footage! This was mentioned in Drawfee but only low quality images were shown.

[@henrybryantkidofvoices]

ARE YOU GOING TO TALK ABOUT POWERPUFF GIRLS Z ( THE 1ST CARTOON to ANIME )

[@StarDragonJP]

Ninja Turtles was 10 years before that

[@henrybryantkidofvoices]

@@StarDragonJP HAVE YOU THE OLD POWERPUFF GIRLS CARTOON

[@StarDragonJP]

I don't know what the heck you're trying to say, but the Ninja Turtles anime came out in 96, which was before Powerpuffs even existed, & Powerpuff Girls Z didn't come out til 2006.

[@Liggliluff]

But that pink cat girl in the leotard is a nice addition. She looks nice, but I have no idea what she's doing there.

[@EndGameEnt]

Oh my FRICK! I thought I was the only person who watched this show!

[@DragoSonicMile]

There are two things outside of the main character's mon that I remember about this series: 1. (distraught yell) "My upside-down cake!" 2. A contest where one of the kids' entries was called "Chicken Ninja."

[@mikekazz5353]

I remember the theme song more than any of the episodes, I also remember seeing a dragon Ball cartoon on upn along seeing the episode of Pokemon with a town that was split up into 2 gangs amd Pikachu loving a bottle of ketchup.

[@majormccoy2659]

This was a fun Saturday morning show I greatly enjoyed. Fun food puns, with some creative creatures, and a fairly nice concept.

[@seankrkovich2869]

I remember watching this on the 4kids website as a brat.

[@rockinrootbeer1795]

You mentioning the website reminded me of the hours I wasted as a kid coloring those awful stock images of 4Kids characters with the MS Paint style bucket tool. That's how my first re-colored Sonic OC was born. He didn't even have a name, he was just an ugly neon pink and puke green Sonic with all yellow shoes. An absolutely horrendous abomination. Thanks for the memories 4Kids.

[@Blackotakunerd]

Oh yes!! As a kid a i tried to makes some of the dishes from the show this actually made realize I loved cooking, went to culinary school been in the business for 10 years and now planning on getting a food truck next year.

[@dragonmaster613]

My obsession with the 'Mon games (and MTG/Yugioh) is the same for my need to play Shin Megami Tensei/Persona and Yo-Kai Watch, I am trained (basics) in the ways of Onmyoji (Japanese Imperial Demonology)

[@diegojosue1030]

You take that back fighting foodon was badass

[@50shadesofgandalfthegrey]

Wow. Never been this early. Hey y'all.

[@CAMERO202]

The memories are all flooding back to me about this Saturday morning nightmare I always watched
