    Slugterra is a show full of heart, fun action and, yeah, you guessed it... A BUNCH OF SLUGS! I had a lot of fun checking out what Slugterra was all about, to see the growth of the franchise as well as seeing it going on in different ways now. Let's take a look into the slug filled world of Slugterra!
    Thanks again to Manscaped for sponsoring this video!

    My favorite part about _Slugterra_ is that it takes the concept of "slugs" as "small soft-bodied mollusks" and the concept of "slugs" as "small metal projectiles fired from a gun" and combines them into a single, entirely new concept.

    I was honestly so obsessed with this show growing up, and I was actually kinda sad when they basically stopped making episodes for the series without truly completing it. I mean, jeez, they never even got to rescue Will before they cancelled it! Sounds like the new mini series was a dud though, I guess I'll just have to keep writing my fanfictions that actually keep the story going.

    Absolutely fantastic work here. I was one of the animators on Season 1 of this show, and it's pretty surreal seeing someone talk about it in the context of "remember this show from a long time ago!?"
    we really have no idea how much of an impact anything we make as animators is going to have. it's not unusual to have something pop out into the world and fade away, but knowing that 10 years down the line people are still talking about it is real satisfying
    *edit:*
    wow, i did not expect this single comment to take off this hard. Thanks again to everyone who grew up with this and expressed their appreciation. I've pointed some of my old colleagues to the video and these comments as well.
    As for the future of Slugterra, as of writing this the property is still well in the hands of Wildbrain Entertainment so your guess is as good as mine. They regularly upload and reupload the episodes up on their youtube page, so at least they're easily accessible for anyone that wants to rewatch and relive them

    Definitely a fun childhood cartoon. Loved the series since beginning until now. Just sad that I didn't have many friends that I could talk about the show. There's no BS drama, or any annoying tropes just a cartoon filled with slug slinging action everytime and pretty straightforward stories. Everyone was unique, heck, even the prince of slugterra (don't remember specifically who or where but he called himself king or prince) was cool even though he wasn't really skilled like he called himself.

    The nostalgia hit hard like a train. Slugterra is one of my favorite series of all time. There is just so much to love: Slug it Out (the original game was a masterpiece in my opinion), the relationship of the group with their slugs (SO WHOLESOME), Dr Black (an amazing antagonist as a whole), and the iconic sound effects of the slugs morphing and their visual designs. Truly one of the best series of its time, and it makes me happy to know it still holds up to this day.

    I remember watching Slugterra on Netflix when I was 11 or 12, when it was no longer there I was sad and had the thought that the series was over, now after watching these video it’s nice to see that it’s still going, I think slugterra is underrated and deserves a bit more Recognition(not too much because fandom reasons)

    i never really thought about it at the time but the way you describe the main character, its made me realise the producers may have been inspired by the late Steve Irwin in a way. cause much like steve in a world where people came into creatures habitats and used, abused, and killed them for their own benefit he came in and showed everyone that both the people and the animals can thrive if you just learn to show them a little love and respect. i was a massive fan of steve growing up and i guess subconsiously that might have been one of the reasons i loved slugterra so much. cause like you said, unlike almost every other programs who just left it as "well this is how this world works accept it or leave" they actually talked about it and had the MC asking "but why is it this way tho?"

I also really liked how the show gave us a interesting world that wasn't all the same and have unique creatures other than the slugs themselves to it. Another thing I really liked is how the above world wasn't forgotten at all and there were episodes dedicated to it and how the choice of Eli's family to keep it hidden actually effected him and then exploring how Eli felt about it and what he thought was the best decision. Overall one of my favorite childhood shows

    I absolutely remember this show. I vividly remember the show from when I was younger, but I fell out of it after a while. I had NO IDEA it was still alive in different forms. This is awesome.

    I got hooked this series back when i was a kid because i used to love borderlads and borderlands 2 so much back then. Slugterra and borderlands for me looks very much alike lol
