Disclosure: I was sent a copy of this DVD from the vendor in order to write up an honest review.  The views shared are mine and mine alone.





"It’s time for Chase Suno to decide the fate of the Monsuno! On August 27th, 2013, Shout! Factory Kids, in collaboration with FremantleMedia Kids & Family Entertainment, will release Monsuno: COMBAT CHAOS, the latest DVD collection based on the highly popular Nicktoons animated series! Delivering five action-packed episodes that kids and families are sure to enjoy, the DVD also features bonus content including character bios and has a suggested retail price of 14.97.
MONSUNO is an epic boys action adventure series where kids discover, command and battle creatures with tremendous destructive potential.

My Thoughts:

This new DVD release includes the first 5 episodes of Season 2 of this popular animated series , which can be seen on NickToons.  Season 2, which is still underway on television, started on April 21st, and has been the best season so far, accordingly to my husband and nephews.  And, based upon their reaction to this DVD when I showed it to them, the first five episodes also ranked up there as the best ones to day.  

Even though my husband and two nephews already saw the five jam packed adventure episodes that make up this upcoming DVD, they couldn't wait to watch them again (and again).  When asked which of the five episodes was their favorite, they all agreed they liked the "Kidnapped" episode, in which Dax returned home to find out more information about his parents, only to find Dom Pyro waiting for him, to take him to Dr. Eklipse, who is eagerly awaiting his capture, so that they can experiment on him.  Does Dax become "Toxic Dax?"  My husband and nephews, the good reviewers that they are, said I would have to watch this DVD to find out. :-)  And, sorry, but you will, too.  If you are a Monsuno fan, like all the guys in my family, then you probably already know, but you will enjoy watching these 5 episodes from Season 2 on DVD, again and again. :-)
