A fast paced futuristic anime-style action series that pits the forces of Ultimate Evil against a scrappy band of high-tech monkey warriors, led by a resourceful young teen boy. This epic coming of age sci-fi adventure centers on a boy named Chiro and his team of five Robot Monkeys, who defend their home, Shuggazoom City against the evil Skeleton King and his monster minions.
Chiro falls for a girl, but keeps her a secret from the Monkey Team. Later, he learns about trust firsthand when it turns out there's much more to his girlfriend than meets the eye.
Chiro must overcome his fears to help the Monkey Team save Shuggazoom City from a watery subterranean threat.
Chiro discovers the key to the mysterious Power Primate as he and the Monkey Team attempt to stop a massive living planet from colliding with Shuggazoom City.
When Sparks goes missing because of Chiro's selfishness, the Hyperforce tracks the red monkey to a strange orbiting junkyard, where they encounter a mechanical madman bent on Shuggazoom City's destruction.
Chiro's television heroes, the Sun Riders, show up in Shuggazoom City. Chiro's ecstatic until their motives turn out to be less than heroic.
A former Monkey Team member, a sixth monkey, Mandarin, returns to take over Shuggazoom City and attempts to turn the overconfident Chiro into his apprentice.
