Marvel's Hit-Monkey is Awesome, No I'm Serious 

I worked on this show, and I'm so glad you pointed to the chase scene in Episode 7 as an example of high quality visuals. I actually did a lot of animation for that scene!! Also, there's a reason the show might remind you a bit of Archer: they're both made by the same studio!

This show has more heart than several of its live-action counterparts. I really hope it gets a second season, its well deserved.

It's kind of weird how there's basically zero marketing for these Marvel Hulu adult animated shows. Obviously Modok didn't work out but I'm way more into this stuff as opposed to exclusively Disney+ type stuff. Thanks for making this, I def wanna check it out now.

First time I actually got excited for a Marvel animated show. Don't know why but the moment I saw Lady Bullseye in the trailer I was sold. Binged it the day it came out. Wasn't disappointed one bit. Really hope this gets a second season

Season 2 is confirmed y’all!

Thanks for the kind words!! We worked really hard on the show, and it's so nice to know it's connecting with people.

I have seen no one really talk about it, and it's pretty sad that Marvel barely promotes any project that is not from the MCU.

I binged through Hit-Monkey so quickly it's a goddamn masterpiece.

Its been a while, but I hope everyones glad to see Hit-Monkey is back for season 2 in july :)

This is at least the third time GodzillaMendoza has made me say "Shit, I guess I will consume that piece of media". Which I think shows how good he is at what he does.

Hit monkeys self containedness was one of my favourite parts of the show

I'm surprised by how much I enjoyed this show it made me want a Deadpool animated show with Jason Sudeikis voicing him it could be awesome man

So much of this show was amazing. I remember when Bryce first admitted about having a daughter and the first thought to my mind was that he just banged a random chick and accidentally got a daughter. But no, he had a legitimate life and family before becoming a mercenary. I feel like it fleshed him out even more. I honestly really loved the show, like you said it’s not invincible great, buts it’s up there.

Basically curious George if he was John wick and the yellow hat man was a sarcastic ex assassin which is now a ghost...man I love how stupid this show is

11:48 Also nice to see an animated series set in Japan that isn’t an anime for once.

I was really surprised at Hit Monkey. It's proof that anything can be written well.

Fucking thank you! No one has been talking about it and I think its because M.O.D.O.K. left such a bad taste in people's mouths as being a waste of time pretty much!

this popped up on my Hulu and I was thinking it was just going to be a huge joke but now I really wanna watch it as soon as I get home.

This’ll be interesting, seeing hitmonkey was an obscure Deadpool character

It just shows that not every single piece of media has to be based on the MCU I pray this gets a season 2!

The comic and show is a example of “given the right writer, any concept can be good given the right approach”

Season 2 just got confirmed

This series is uniquely awesome and very underrated. Definitely deserves season 2!

This show is elite and it shows that marvel can do an animated series that's not garbage

Having the one Yakuza guy consistently getting more injured the whole season, even when he was turning his life around had me laughing so hard and made me realize how much love was out into the show. Totally deserves another season. What are your thoughts on Peacemaker, I feel that both Marvel and DC making tv shows is a much better move than the big budget movies, at least for some characters.

just started it yesterday

Finally someone makes a video talking about this show. This show is so slept on.

I cannot wait for this dude to watch hit monkey season two

Definitely makes me wish we got that Howard the Duck series before it sadly got canned .

Hit-Monkey deserves more love and another season‼️

This was supposed to debut on Disney+ here in Canada (among other non-US countries) back in November but it seems to have been delayed until January 26 for some reason. Hulu isn't available outside the US without a VPN so I'm not surprised it's flying under the radar right now. I'll definitely check it out in a few weeks!

Imagine a hut monkey and Deadpool team up show

I sincerely hope this gives that previously cancelled Deadpool series a chance at revival.

damn this must be the NFT show they were talkibg about

I could not believe how good this was. Its like a mix of Primal (if you havent seen it watch it from adult swim)and Archer. I watched it with no expectations at all and I got nothing done around the house until this show was over! Whoever did this should be proud as hell of this show.

Just the initial synopsis of Hit Monkey as a character makes me think of an animal version of Frank Castle, in a way.

I agree with everything you said man I love that this show wasn't lazy it had a ton of passion behind it and you can feel it in every episode I love that they included an obscure character like fat cobra who is one of the immortal weapons in the marvel universe like iron fist and hasn't been appropriately adapted into anything other than the immortal iron fist comics written by ed brubaker and Matt fraction with gorgeous art by David aja even lady bullseye was menacing and threatening and I love silver samurais brief cameo appearance I love that his not just used as a one dimensional villain for wolverine to fight like in every adaption of the character his a famous celebrity hero in Japan and I liked seeing that aspect of the character man it's something I haven't seen before

After so long, Marvel is back to making an iconic animated series like it used to. I mean, it's nothing like the other great Marvel animated series, but that's the fun of it.

Hell Yeah Hit-Monkey is fucking awesome, I binged watch all the episodes in just a few hours when it first came out I couldn't get enough of this badass show 😎🤘🔥🔥🔥

I love hearing u talk about comics. It sucks that vids about comics don’t get views cuz I would KILL to hear u talk about runs u like or have problems with (Spencer’s spider man lol). I never rlly got INTO comics so it’s fun to hear about that stuff from someone that did

this show is incredibly special in that i watched expecting nothing and now its one of my favorite shows of all time, the style, the humor, the dialogue, the characters, the animation, its all so perfect. i desperately hope we get to see more of this show, its impossible to overstate how much i adore it

It’s severely underrated

“Modok Chicken.” Yeah, sounds about right.

Never expected John Wick the Monke to be awesome, and yet it is

Came back here after the second season! It’s still peak! You SERIOUSLY gotta go watch it!

I’m so hyped to watch this on Disney Plus in the UK this month can’t believe how many people forgot to include this in the Marvel films/TV shows line up

Man this show goes so incredibly hard, hopefully they started and are working on season 2

SEASON 2 IS OUT?!! Gotta binge both seasons now.

Due to character arcs and developments, I’ll give this show another season.

I'm still watching Hit Monkey and I'm still waiting for someone to talk about him.

I agree, I will *power walk to Hulu’s headquarters if there isn’t a season 2*

Dude I literally I just finished this right before checking RU-vid, can't wait

Reminds me of Detective Chimp. A talking Chimp that is also the greatest detective is dumb and seems like a joke. But coming up with a back story of chimp drinking from Fountain of Youths making him immortal and he lived so long to develop a sentience and intellect pushes that concept to the realm of awesome.

Pleasantly surprised the series hit this hard. Sad to see not that many people taking about it. Hulu as a medium just isn't good for digesting and binging content.

What if we end up having an animated sub marvel universe on Hulu like with the Netflix verse with hit monke being the beginning and the rest of the shows being somewhere from kinda good but not faithful to the heart of the character to an insult to the character. And then a couple years later when Disney plus starts making animated marvel things (other than what if) everyone fights for hit monke to be cannon and then when the make the main villian of hit monke the villian of another show which retroactively ruins the end of hit monke

This was my second Hulu show. I had originally just used it to finish Criminal Minds, but I was starting to long for something new. While scrolling through I found this show and remembered how intrigued I was when watching a trailer for it in a RU-vid add. Also the image they have for the show on Hulu is just so badass. Popped on an episode before bed, and dude if I didn't have school that next morning, I probs would have binged the show right then and there. This show from presentation to story to action is SO badass! The art style really fits with it's gritty themes mixed with slight humor. I like to say the animation looks like a high quality Adult Swim show. And it was very noticeable in the first couple of episodes how choppy it was. But I did start to notice it less the more I watched. And the action scenes like GodzillaMendoza said, is probably where they REALLY put their budget and it shows. TLDR, WATCH THIS FREAKING SHOW IF YOU CAN !

Watching this content really makes up for all the sleepless nights and tight deadlines animating this show.... thanks

Glad you made this video, i didnt even know hit monkey had realeased andI just binged the whole thing and gotta tell ya, this is some good stuff.

It even got a Season 2, wasn't really expecting that.

If we couldn't get the animated Deadpool show, I'm at least happy we got this. I love it when passion goes into characters like this. Characters outside of the Spideys, Logan's, the Caps, and the Starks. I hope this show ends up getting love so marvel can see there's a market for characters outside of the A-listers

Glad to hear someone talk about this, after that pretty mediocre to bad modok show I think people avoided it due to that In the end I loved it the only thing I hated was the set up for the new villain like do you think u can just do what the assassin does just because you put on their mask and took their mantle

I was so high I thought this was archer and monkey Woodhouse.

Dude, I love your video editing. I almost feel disrespectful when I only stream to listen rather than watch😂 keep up the great content my man

12:45 Exactly I was thinking the same thing 🔥💪❤️

Me as a comic fan: YES! Yuki Onna shows up : Mythology part of me YES! Silver Samurai shows up : X-MAN YES this show was some good stuff

Was waiting to see this for awhile now! Thanks!

Literally on episode 3 right now and wow I’m just pulled in. Awesome show so far. DEFINITELY a watch for anyone. I wouldn’t have given it a try either if it wasn’t for this video.

My man, I paused the video 5 minutes in. Binged the show in a night. Resumed the video. Much appreciated.

Omg I just watched the episode of comic tropes where you cameod as Spider-Man and I really hope you get cast as his VA someday. Very coincidental that you released this bud the same day I watched the other one but I love seeing you anywhere so keep up the good work!!

I completely forgot about this hit monkey series.

I honestly found this way more entertaining and interesting than marvel studios what if and most of the mediocre marvel mcu shows they have on Disney plus but that's just my opinion man

I honestly was not gonna watch the show but seven minutes into this you have convinced me to give the series a chance so I’m gonna I’ll come back to finish this video once I finish the series

Another great video Xavier! Keep up the good work, stay safe ❤️

Finally someone appreciate Hit Monkey, I practically binged the whole season in one night

Speaking of amazing marvel adjacent shows available on hulu that no-one ever talks about... Have you seen FX's Legion? based on David Haller (the schizophrenic estranged son of Charles Xavier) It's one of the best shows of the past decade (not just best superheroesque show, best shows period.) it's so wildly different from anything Marvel or Fox's X-Men have done besides maybe Wandavision and it's an absolute crime that nobody talks about it. I guarantee mainstream Marvel TV will never portray a duel between telepaths as a dance battle or as a music video duet sequence featuring mixed live action and 2D animation.

nice to hear someone talk about this show, it was pretty good

BRO THHIS SHOW IS FUCKIN INCREDIBLE LITERALLY HAS THE BEST PILOT EPISODE IVE EVER SEEN IN LIKE YEARS

I'm in love with this show ❤.

It's been nearly 3 years and still there isn't a season 2

fr i never even heard of him before lego marvel

Though the animation was a little wonky I gotta say this show was great. It’s like archer set in the marvel universe which Is exactly what I wanted with that Deadpool cartoon. And I suppose this show is the closest we’re ever gonna get to that show.

My son just suggested this show to me. That plus your review is enough for me to give it a look. Thanks for how deeply you address it's positives and my concerns (i.e. pointless MCU tie-ins). Nice job.

goddamn that was a cool show

Just stumbled across your channel and subscribed 2 minutes in. I’m going to come back to this comment with an edit, after i watch the show. You sparked my interest

Another decent adult animated adaptation of comic book is Super Crooks

Apparently a second season is planned to release this year, so here's hoping

Hard Agree. I loved every minute of both seasons.

I binged the whole season right after watching this video,I absolutely loved it. Thanks!

2:24 actually no I didn’t know there was a second channel

I checked out the show after watching your vid. All your recommendations are top notch.

If it does get a second season I would like see them try to work in other obscure Marvel characters, like Manphibian.

Just saw the first episode now I'm hooked thanks

This has actually been on my watch list. Glad to hear it’s good

Omg the Amazing Spider-Man Jackrabbit issue!! Beginning of the Micheline/ McFarlane run!

Great video. I was actually planning on doing a video about hitmonkey on my channel but no one seemed to care about the show so I figured it’d be a waste a time but now I think I might do it.

I still wish they animated the Casino fight

Wait, this came out? I’m looking forward to checking it out.

I don't know much of Hit-Monkey, aside from a bio in Lego Marvel Superheroes 2. But this show was awesome, with great such moments, I am really liking this character. Now, excuse me as I go rewatch again.

everything about this show's premise sounds like something suda51 would cook up... shit, now i want a hit-monkey game directed by suda51.

6:05 if the show is missing one little thing it's this badass panel from the comic where the killers' parkas make them mistakable for monkeys.
