Monster Allergy is an Italian comic book about a boy, Ezekiel Zick, who is allergic to monsters and lives in a house that is actually a 'taming oasis' for misbehaved monsters, who are invisible to normal people. The monsters actualy live in a suspended city above the town of Bigburg, and they are sent to the taming oases for crimes such as being overly flatulent or playing the violin badly, both big crimes by monster standards. They are supposed to reform under the eye of Tamers, monsters who appear human, and Keepers, humans who can see monsters.Zick's best friend is Elena Potato, a newcomer at the town, and she finds out about the monster world. As the series progresses, Elena gains the ability to see monsters from Zick's mom, a Keeper named Greta. The comic has an animated adaptation which Kids' WB! picked up as one of their last shows in the U.S. It was also aired on Disney Channel Asia.The recap page.
And Show It To You - Patty and Mattie absolutely love showing anybody they can their extensive scrapbook of dead cat pictures in the comic. And describing the scenarios in morbid detail.
Animesque - In the style of many Italian animated series lately.
Catch Phrase - Elena's "Holy spit!" In issue 18, Zick even comments when she frustratingly switches temporarily to "Damned whistle!" while trying to stop Bombolo's pooing.
Comedic Underwear Exposure - Zick loses his pants twice in the TV series; first in episode 1 (Skip to 5:36), and again near the end of episode 22 (Skip to 6:17).
Power Nullifier - Zick loses his powers after the Devourer absorbed it.
Also, lavender actually will nullify a tamer's powers, as well as calm down monsters. Another way to subdue a monster is by kicking it in the head and following that with a kiss.
