Based on an old computer game, Medabots is a blatant attempt to create an animation/merchandise franchise on the Pokemon/Digimon model. In 2022 kids aspire to become "medafighters," the owners of special robots they battle in contests. The hero of the series is Ikki, who finds a rare, stolen Beetle medallion and uses it to power a ramshackle, second-hand robot, creating Metabee. But Metabee exhibits an obnoxious personality of his own: he refuses to obey Ikki and insults him. Student journalist and put-down artist Arika and mean Samantha and her gang, the Screws, complete the cast. The popular series on the Fox Kids' Network wants to be the next Pokemon, but parents need to know this series is more street-smart and caffeinated. Young viewers should tap into the smart-mouth humor that includes lines like "kiss their 'bots good-bye." Unrated: Suitable for ages 7 and up. --Charles Solomon

I cant believe you people give this a good rating. It sucks so bad it gives anime a bad name. If you like this show may god help you!
 good times November 20, 2005
I remeber this show when fox kids aired it but I totally forgot about it un till I bought mega man anniversery collection. then I remembered the old mega man show and rented a dvd with episodes on it. the mega man dvd had a medabots trailer on it with the theme song so now I am going to rent the dvd. any way This is a great show well at least the first season is. the show ran for 3 seasons 2 of which were on abc family. I reccomend this dvd for any one who loves anime or mega man because this show has similarites. watch it and see for your self.

When I first heard of Medabots i decided to give it a shot because it looked to me like a cool show. Boy was i right. After just watching the first episode i was hooked. I loved the whole idea of owning your very own medabot. Unlike pokemon where you have to collect like 500 different ANIMALS or Yugio where well, yugio "is bad". I thought it was cool how you could have your own bot that could communicate with you and relate with you with a personality of it's own. The transporting watches are cool too. Metabee cracks me up when ever he talks back to Ikki. Although, Medabots is a exellent show. The rubberrobo gang is kind of a ... attempt at Team Rocket(Pokemon) and it's just kind of weird how the referee pops out of anywhere. Other than those few cons Medabots is a cool show. I bought this dvd because of the quality of this show and just the fact that it's so cool. And before you just automatically label this as a bad show give it a try. Watch it and i'm sure you'll get hooked. If not then, you still have lameass yugio, out of date pokemon, and real tired digimon to run back to.

Hello. I am a 23-year-old and I really don't care when people always say stuff like: "You're to old to be watching kiddie shows." Because most anime shows are not "kiddie shows" Sure at first glance it might seem a little childish. But deeper down the episodes are funny, with lots of hilarious comments, they have a plot (which immediately seperates this and other anime shows from the "kiddie" selection). As you watch more than you will see that the plot gets deeper. There are mysteries within mysteries in Medabots. As a side note I do not count Pokemon as an anime show because it has no plot, no humor, and the characters are all stupid. I highly recommend this sow to viewers of ANY age. And adults: next time you are surfing channels and you see an anime show (other than Pokemon) try watching it! You could gain something out of it. This message has been brought to you by Tagg. A 23-year-old anime lover.
I might seem too mature for this stuff, BUT IT ROCKS! August 14, 2002
