Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go!

I was browsing some old posts that I had made on social media, and wouldn't you know it, I was doing this stuff long before even joining TokuNation! Below is an old post I did years ago after a rewatch of the above titled show, and if you guys want the short version: It's really good! The post is quick and to the point, and maybe I'll do a more detailed analysis of the show one day in the (far) future, but for now, I think it sums up my overall feelings pretty well. I definitely recommend checking the show out! I give it a 5/6.

So I recently completed my rewatch of Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go! It was every bit as fun as I remember, and makes me sad that the show got cancelled before its big climax. Those last few episodes were some of the best in the series without a doubt. Now to sort the seasons from best to not best.

Season 2 - This is the season where the show started to grow its beard. More character focus, more connected plots, and even the comedic value started getting better. Not to mention the best season finale in the whole show. Who knew a show about Cyborg Monkeys could make me nearly tear up?

Season 3 - While season 2 had the best season closer, this one had the best season opener. Not only that, but a good chunk of the season focused on having fun. Not only increasing enjoyability, but also making the more serious episodes stand out all the more. And while the season finale was a tad weak, it was still good.

Season 4 - This season had the absolute worst episode in the whole show. "The Hills Have Five" was nothing but a waste of time and was the only episode that made me wanna bash my brain against a wall. But the season quickly makes up for it by having every episode afterward be fantastic.

Season 1 - Now don't get me wrong, the season is not bad by any means, and even has one of my favorite episodes(Secret of the Sixth Monkey), but during this time, you can tell the show was still trying to find its identity, and it wouldn't be found until season 2. Still a fun watch all around though.

Overall, SRMTFHG! is a great show that was sadly passed up during its time on Jetix so long ago. While alot of things in it are for the sake of parodying nerd culture, it showed a surprisingly good ability to tell mature stories. If you're a fan of western animation, I'd definitely say to check it out.
