What Parents Need to Know
About Chaotic
Parents need to know that this cartoon is intricately tied to (and designed to promote) the Chaotic Trading Card Game. The show's characters play a similar multimedia game using laptops and other high-tech gadgets. Some players are able to transform into the game characters and are transported to battle sites to engage in physical one-on-one and team battles, all of which may be frightening to the youngest viewers. Cartoon violence is prevalent, but much of it is exchanged at a distance -- like hurling fireballs at an enemy -- and it rarely results in lasting injury. There's little questionable material here (aside from the violence), but the show doesn't have many positive messages, either. The show's second season airs under the title Chaotic M'arillion Invasion.

I shall explain why this is the best card game-based show.
The reason? Instead of watching character sit/stand around playing the game and letting the creatures do most of the work for them, you actually see them become a part of the action. That's what makes this show so awesome and different. YGO is just characters slapping down cards and watching the monsters battle for them, but in this, the characters become the creatures and battle themselves! I also like some of the strange logic in this show, like how the character you see in Chaotic is a digital version of the player while the player simply goes along with his everyday life while waiting for his virtual counterpart to return. I also find it interesting how they get the creatures. Instead of buying them like in, again, YGO, or having them fall from the sky like in Bakugan, they scan the creatures to use them in battle. It's also interesting how the creatures' strength when used in battle depends on the condition they're in when they're scanned. All in all, this is a cool show and does what most other card game-based shows haven't done. I know the human storyline's are mostly generic "battle this guy" type storylines, but you gotta admit, the storylines involving the Chaotic creatures themselves are well thought out. Anyway, check it out some time.

Chaotic: Why do you not like it!
If you are reading this because you want to see if this show is any good, then I say "Good Day to You!" I love this show, but it should not be watched by kids under the age of eight. Good night!
