=== [[Mons]] ===
Cute Animals meets ShonenShounen FightingFighter.
* [[Trope Maker]]: ''[[Shin Megami Tensei]]''.
* [[Trope Codifier]]: ''[[Pokémon (anime)|Pokémon]]'' (1997–present). A major multimedia franchise, ''Pokémon'' was the first major [[Mons]] series to be targeted towards children, and also the first to make it across the Atlantic; though the RPG series is the true core of the franchise, the anime tends to be the more well-known version. Since then, most Mons series have followed the graphical stylings and kid-friendliness of the ''Pokémon'' franchise. It's also something of a template insofar as the adaptation of video games to anime, of which it is by far the longest-lived and most successful.
