Shuzo "Shu" Matsutani is young, loves baseball, and carries around a useless white toy called a Talispod - at least, he THOUGHT it was useless. What Shu soon discovers is that Talispods can summon powerful monsters known as Legendz stored inside of Soul Dolls, and the evil Dark Wiz Toy Company wants his Talispod for nefarious purposes. After being chased by Dark Wiz's lackeys, Shu receives the ultimate gift from the skies: a Windragon who will fight by his side. Now, with the help of his friends, Shu will become involved in battles, hold back the Dark Wiz Toy Company, and discover the locations of the remaining Soul Dolls.
Max, Zoey and Rex are three kids who make up the D-Team - a team which is all about adventure! While investigating a fallen meteorite, the trio run across some mysterious dinosaur cards which, when activated, spit out a real life dinosaur! These cards were accidentally scattered around the world in a time traveling accident caused by the nefarious Dr. Z and his henchmen known as the Alpha Gang. Dr. Z aspires to create a dinosaur fighting arena and become the Dinosaur King himself, and he needs the cards - and dinosaurs within them - to accomplish his goal! Now, the D-Team must race against the clock to find the cards first and free the dinosaurs from the ultimate villains!
Though Dinosaur King and Legendz have slightly different tones (DK is newer-feeling and more in the Pokemon realm, while Legendz is more of a comedy), there is no doubt in my mind that they would appeal to the same audiences. If you are a young boy who likes shounen, random battles with summoned monsters and marginal animation, these are for you.
Yugi Mutou was a boy who was constantly bullied – until one day he managed to put together an ancient and mysterious puzzle that no one has been able to solve for two hundred years. Now, whenever Yugi's friends are threatened, a strange transformation occurs, and Yugi seems to become an entirely different person. This transformed Yugi is a master of games, and uses these spontaneously-invented games to trap and to punish the bad guys. At the end of each game, his opponent appears to suffer a painful death; but it is soon revealed that this was all in their minds – or was it?
Both anime are about friends banding together for one purpose - to show the power of friendship to those who would a oppose them. They are also concetrated on a sacred power given to the main character - who is small but gains strength of heart - to guide the main character and his friends.
