'''''Redakai: Conquer The Kairu''''' is a [[Merchandise-Driven]] cartoon series and card game developed by [[Spin Master]]. The game centers around cards (Called "[[Call a Rabbit
The Cartoon centers around a boy named Ky Stax and his friends Boomer and Maya who quest around the world trying to collect an energy called "Kairu", the life energy of the universe before the villain Lokar and his minions find it first. They do this by fighting other teams and transforming into monsters. The episodes are different every week without an overarcing plot.
''Redakai'' came in with a lot of fanfare but fell by the wayside in the United States after just a few months due to overwhelmingly negative reception.

* [[All There in the Manual]]: The show relies a ''lot'' on its supplementary materials to tell the story, such as the website and promotional videos carrying key plot points that aren't visited in the show itself.
* [[And Knowing Is Half the Battle]]: About halfway through, these sorts of tips started coming up at the ends of each episodes, sometimes tips on how to play the card games and sometimes general advice. However, the card-game tips typically aren't applicable to the actual game.
* [[Anti-Hero]]: Team Stax was

It was likely being groomed as the successor to [[Bakugan]], but the lackluster TV show and high prices dashed it against the rocks.

* [[Golden Super Mode]]: "Gold" versions of monsters tend to be very powerful.
* [[Jerkass]]: Team Stax. They scowl, use trash talk, and execute a lot of questionable behavior, such as openly and unsympathetically taunting Boomer for getting a pimple.

** Heck, it's practically an [[Invoked Trope]], as it is said that one's Inner Kairu develops when the time is right...
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: The Cataclysm that wound up throwing the Kairu energy all over the world in the first place was caused by Ky's Dad, Conner Stax.
* [[Parents in Distress]]: The Imperiaz only work for Lokar because he is keeping their parents as hostages.
* [[Product Promotion Parade]]: Happens near the end of each episode. Getting the Kairu Energy "unlocks new X-drives". It's like the characters just opened a booster pack as they list off what they all got.
