This show was the reason why I wanted to become an archaeologist. The dinosaurs were super cool at times with the amazing CGI (at the time). The little animated chiba dinosaurs were absolutely adorable! The friendship between Max and Chomp is like a man and a puppy, downright adorable. Sure the anime plays on tropes. So what? The tropes are amazing and carried out great. I love the villains. They remind me of Jesse and James. This whole show reminds me of Pokemon, actually! It just has real dinosaurs in it. Cool facts are taught about dinosaurs, and I enjoy the end as well, sending a message telling that you can't hold on to friends forever, and you'll have to let them go eventually. The heartbreak is hard, but you know they're in a better place. It's like grieving for a pet you lost. I enjoy that it seems sincere. All of the dinosaurs that appear (even in filler episodes) have something driving them. It isn't an empt plot.
I love the supporting cast. Sure, Mr.NotMcCree over here is imcompitent but parents in a kids anime is always shown off as kind of weaker. He's silly, and the characters are adorable and well animated. The dinosaurs are so cute that I'm currently going to order them off of amazon. Thank you Dinosaur King, for giving me an amazing childhood and making me love dinosaurs.
