Axel, the leader, is brave, responsible, smart, and of course has the most cliché backstory of ‘The villain killed my father. The characters are pretty much cutouts and stereotypes. Gee, wonder if he’ll come back in the next episode. The departure is framed as a cliffhanger.

Why do you need to bring magic martial arts into it?Īt the end, the bad guy gets away, and Hawk suddenly leaves because he doesn’t want to damage his precious face while chasing baddies even though he decided to help Axel this time of his own free will, even without knowing the connection between the two of them. I thought this universe was just ours in the fairly distant future, then you throw magic martial arts in the mix? You didn’t think your premise was strong enough on its own with cool machines? Hell, the team is called Alpha Teens on MACHINES. Reading the Wiki, this martial art only gets more insane and more like arcade game and DBZ fare. The leader, Axel, because leaders always get the best stuff, knows a martial art called Jo-Lan which makes his eyes glow and allows him to shoot Kamehameha waves or pseudo-Hadokens, if you will, from his hands. For the most part, yeah, that’s right, but then….they introduce magic martial arts. Then………I really thought this show would just be focused on X-TREEM sports and cool vehicles and doing crime fighting stuff with that. First off, just to get this out of the way, COPS? Hellooooo? Rampant escaped convict involved in a really destructive car chase? Kidnaps the guy following him? Yoohoo? Are you there? I don’t know what happens in episode two, but I really believe it would work as a standalone. They could’ve started out the episode with introductions to the characters, have them be new recruits to be testers for Lee’s creations simply because they’re X-TREEM and cut a good five minutes down for more exploration. I really believe they spent too much time focusing on the game show, especially considering that the show was basically fake. But even as a part-one this episode’s second half seems rushed and weird. I was going to complain that this seemed like half a story, and it is because it’s a two-parter. When they find they have failed, they vow to stop him no matter what. After a prison break results in the release of a man that Axel has a grudge against, they group up together to stop him. The premise is simple five strangers are selected via weird challenge show to test out the latest tech creations of a man named Janus Lee, a man so rich he basically owns the entire city. I couldn’t really get a good lock on how I felt about this show.

When a prison break occurs, releasing a man named Alexander Paine, the five, especially their leader Axel Manning, take it upon themselves to pursue him since he supposedly killed Axel’s father over a decade ago.īreakdown: This show is really silly….but kinda fun? The second season never aired in the United States.Plot: Five teens are recruited by an insanely rich man to test out his various high-tech vehicles.

The show ended on a huge cliffhanger (Jetix Europe confirmed in August 2007 that the series wouldn't be renewed for a third season, and also possibly for SIP Animation to focus on Combo Niños).The toyline from Hasbro is a replacement to the classic Action Man toyline, featuring versions of the characters (except for Lioness) and recreations of vehicles from the show.Season 2 (which never aired in the United States) features a very shocking and sneaky plot twist (which we won't mention here, you'll have to watch it to believe it!).Good voice acting from voice actors like Clancy Brown, Tom Kenny and James Arnold Taylor.Catchy music by SIP Animation composers Alain Garcia and Noam Kaniel.The fights are very clever and entertaining.The Alpha Teens Axel, Hawk, Shark, Lioness and King just happen to be regular plain old teenagers who manage to kick butt against the villains and use their vehicles in an action-packed matter. Much like with fellow-SIP show W.I.T.C.H., the Animation is very unique (Heck, it doesn't even look like something a Disney subsidiary would produce!) and is heavily inspired from Anime and Comic Books.In some countries the show is a spin-off to the Action Man toyline (abit in-name only) and known as Action Man A.T.O.M. Alpha Teens on Machines is an French/American animated series produced by SIP Animation and premiered on the US Jetix on August 27, 2005.
