''Mon Colle Knights'' is low-budget anime comedy. It can be considered a parody of various things, itself included. The show is gag-driven for the most part and deals with two "teams" traveling to an AlternateUniverse to gather six magical items that will enable them to connect their world with the Six Gates world. The lead characters, a MadScientist (Ichirobei Hiiragi) who recruited his daughter (Rokuna Hiiragi) and her boyfriend (Mondo Ooya) as "Mon Colle Knights" compete with Count (Ludwig Presto Von Meinstein) Collection and his lackeys, who try to gather the items to rule the world.

* MerchandiseDriven: the card game featured in the anime was aimed at an older audience, so a separate, more kid friendly card game was based on the anime.

* HereWeGoAgain: [[spoiler: In the end Reda and Oroboros are defeated, but all the collected Monmon Items are destroyed. New ones are then scattered once again, leaving the heroes and villains exactly where they started.]]

* MagicMusic: both the merboy choir and Hanazono No Utahime have this, which allows them to control water and plants.

The show is gag-driven for the most part and deals with two "teams" traveling to an AlternateUniverse to gather six magical items that will enable them to connect their world with the Six Gates world. The lead characters, a MadScientist (Ichirobei Hiiragi) who recruited his daughter (Rokuna Hiiragi) and her boyfriend (Mondo Ooya) as "Mon Colle Knights" compete with Count (Ludwig Presto Von Meinstein) Collection and his lackeys, who try to gather the items to rule the world.
