Oh yeah, Super Robot Monkey Team certainly had some harsh moments for sure! Such an underrated and not-well-known show that deserves more love.
A lot of people I know thought of it as a Dollar-Store Power Rangers knockoff, but it's really not like your typical Power Rangers-like show. I mean like for one, the episodes tended to vary a lot more and aren't so repetitive (i.e. their Super Robot, their equivalent of the Megazord, isn't always the solution to their problems), and the characters go through quite a bit (i.e. Chiro finding out his personal heroes, the Sun Riders, were really bad guys, and such). Plus, the bad guys not always being like some Monster Of The Week sent by Skeleton King and having unique backstories (i.e. Skeleton King being an Alchemist who got corrupted, Scraperton being a cyberneticist who became so engrossed withΒ greed and mechanization thatΒ he surgically replaced every part of his body with cybernetics, and more).
And it had stuff like THIS in it too! Not what your typical Power Rangers-like show would have.

Amen to that!
EXACTLY. Yes, there are some similarities to Power Rangers, but unlike that show, it wasn't as formulaic. There were a lot of deep emotional moments, complex and interesting characters (both hero and villain alike), and a lot of dark scenes that were genuinely scary.

Yep ^^ It's very well-made, I must say. Very mature (in a good way) for a kid-teen cartoon show.

At least Antuari came back!
You know one thing i never could decide, didn't Chiro have a closer relationship with Antauri when he came back? Like i thought i saw Antauri as more... protective of Chiro. Unless i am mistaking, am i the only one who thinks this? XD

And the best part it. After the article I read that was interview with Ciro Neili this year, he confirmed he would return to the show hopefully soon. He swore he will give it the ending it deserves.
Ah yes glad I am not the only one xD my friend argued with me saying he was not AS close to black antauri. agreed with that, till after he became silver antauri. Lol

Yep! and just to prove so no one calls me a liar (a lot of people did not believe me) Here is the very interview XD
TOONZONE NEWS: Speaking of Monkey Team, are there stories for that youβd like to explore if given the chance to go back to it?
CIRO NIELI:Β Oh yeah.Β Thereβs a finale planned for that and I donβt know how Iβm gonna do it but I swear that Iβm gonna do it someday. I can do it as one movie or I can do it as a whole season, it just depends on how much breadth I want to give it. Look at the last episode. You can either pick it up from there or you can go βFive years later: itβs the war of the undead vs the robot chimps.β Itβs this crazy battlefield where all forces have kinda teamed up against the ultimate evil. Itβd be awesome. Itβs all figured out pretty much. Everyone bugs me about it all the time and I really wanna sit down andΒ tellΒ everybody what happens but Iβd rather just make it someday and give it to them. Worst case scenario: before I die Iβll do a perfect graphic novel of it and then Disney can sue me posthumously βcause they now completely own it and thatβs how it goes [laughs]. I guess I could make a comic and change the names and hairdosβ¦

Article made around December 5 2014, very recent. And best part is, even though Ciro Nieli is working on the TMNT cartoon series, half of the same voice actors from SRMTHFG are actually voicing in the very same show XDD

Of course he is XD amen to that.
That right there tells you mister Ciro has some plans. I am anxious to see this, curious, what do you think would happen in a 5th season? XD

oh yes, i really hope so. I wished Mandarin would become good.Β
But then, jealousy might strike between the leaders XD'
I have an idea, it will explore Chiro's past.

I know right? I have always wondered, has Chiro even told the team about it? I mean besides Gibson that is. But i don't think he has even mentioned it to them at all.

GShepherd17 In reply to Jackie-SugarSkull [2014-12-30 06:04:08 +0000 UTC]
oh yes agreed lol xD
I think my favorite relationship is the father/son between Antauri and Chiro. I personally wonder if he would would show any full reaction if something happened to Chiro.Β
Always wondered that.

Jackie-SugarSkull In reply to GShepherd17 [2014-12-30 06:10:09 +0000 UTC]
Likewise. I'm pretty sure he would.
After all, he did go "Papa Wolf" on SK and clone!Mandarin "I, Chiro".

GShepherd17 In reply to Jackie-SugarSkull [2014-12-30 06:15:59 +0000 UTC]
oh yes defiantly, i keep forgetting about that XD
Or the fact he is the one who usually calls Chiro asking him where he is, since he always runs off. Like in episode Girl Trouble, oh god that was one was funny as hell XD

Β Β Personally, i think this fits Antauri's character REAL well XD

But just a thought.
I have a strong gut feeling that something had is gonna happen to Chiro.

GShepherd17 In reply to Jackie-SugarSkull [2014-12-30 16:46:18 +0000 UTC]
i hope not either.
But do you just get that feeling sometimes? You know something is gonna happen, and something that is close or spot on ends up happening?Β
I mean Skeleton King was always trying to kill Chiro, but hardly ever the Monkeys.Β

One could only imagine the nightmares Chiro had after that despite Antauri coming back. Remember how freaked out he was when he saw Mandarin in the Dark One's body? You can definitely tell he was deathly afraid of Manadarin after what he did.

Whenever I watched Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce the episode "Galactic Smash: Game Over" Season 4 with Tara Strong (Guest Star) who played Oliana. I alway thinking about Twilight Sparkle because of the voice. I couldn't focus while I'm watching.

Likewise. *shudders*
Skele-Mandarin was a ruthless little son of a bitch, wasn't he?
