Why does everyone think Ma Ti is helpless? He's a freaking Professor X. He can summon hordes of angry animals, mind control people, and communicate telepathically. Hell, there's even an episode where an evil alternate version of him uses his ring to mind control the entire planet. He could probably tell all the villains to shoot themselves in the head if he wasn't such a pacifist.
@Disneythievesrock This just my thoughts but Ma-Ti is a rather weak in the face conflict. In contrast there is anime called UFO Robo Grendizer, where the main character Duke Fleed, who at his heart is a pacifist, but he also accepts that in order to protect Earth from the forces of King Vega he has to fight piloting Grendizer. I can also cite Amuro Ray in Mobile Suit Gundam who is only 15, he trying to survive the horror of the One Year War by the piloting the Gundam.
You know, I recently watched Transformers Supergod Masterforce and its amusing there a "Ma-ti like" character in that show yet but not a pansy as Ma-ti, and instead of a worthless heart ring, he has a pair of bracelets that allow him to transform into a Headmaster and fight against the Decepticons.
@musickaddikt I don't know in the first episode he saved a little monkey from a big cheetah, I say that takes huge balls. He just feels weak compared to everyone else due to his size and his power being sort of useless. I think that's understandable.
@MsWhatRabbit Well, let's see: 1. Poor Writing 2. Poor story/character development 3. Captain Planet himself 4. Dull main characters 5. Even duller villains 6. Captain Planet himself 7. Predictable storylines 8. Story is subservient to the message instead of vice-versa 9. Captain Planet himself 10. Ted Turner's fingerprints are all over this show 11. There are cartoons of greater caliber than this. 12. Did I mention 'Captain Planet himself' all ready?
"make like the wind and blow!" go ahead Captain Planet and blow. Blow to your hearts content. Why is the song it's raining men all the sudden going through my head?
@addygnish is that in pennies cause I got stung by a bee once and my Bio teacher told me to put a penny on it and it stopped hurting and the swelling went down
@Hiddenmistdash I see, well. At least we're in agreement, I've never seen or read twilight to figure out that Christopher Lee does better job as a vampire than those twilight schmucks.

@entityk14 Its not uncommon, most American animation producers will go overseas to such companies as Toei, AIC, Artmic, and Akom for the primary animation.
