The Chasers enter a forest where everything is made gigantic by a converging Tai Chi Character. Ave appears and attacks the chasers with a group of giant beetles, who are all under the control of Ave's control Tai Chi. However, the beetles' leader helps Rai and the others after escaping Ave's control character's power. Ave is defeated, and the beetles are returned to normal when the Chasers obtain the Tai Chi card. Komorka then meets the other two Tigeroid Elders, to discuss the converging characters (which are thought to be caused by Diga's actions, back in Suhn). Before leaving, Komorka declares both Rai and Sena to be the leader of the Tai Chi Chasers, until her return.

The Dragonoid's communication portal activates, and Emperor Diga sends a new general to Earth (General Mischka), to replace Vicious. Upon seeing their new general, the entire Dragonoid team including Luka gasps in shock as they recognize and fear their new general. | ShortSummary = As punishment for his failure, Dragonoid Emperor Diga uses a Tai Chi Character to transform Vicious into a pile of dust, causing him to scream in agony, while Duran watches fearfully.

| ShortSummary = Upon seeing his new team's reaction, General Mischka, the ruthless replacement for General Vicious, sarcastically says that he was expecting a "friendlier welcome." When Ave refuses to obey General Mischka, due to his young age and small size, Mischka tortures Ave with the Tai Chi ''Eum''' sound, which amplifies the sound around Ave's ears by 10 times. Mischka then tauntingly wags his finger at Ave, while he screams in agony, until Ave gives in. Later, the dragon Duran recalls Mischka calling him a "useless reptile." Feeling useless to the Dragonoids, Duran jumps ship and goes through a lot of city troubles until a girl, Yuri, rescues him, naming him "Blackie." Hak thinks that he doesn't belong with the Chasers anymore, and leaves the team. He ends up in the street like a stray cat. Yuri finds him and takes him home. Yuri says she has another pet "friend" for him, Duran. It is later revealed that both Hak and Duran were friends before the Dragonoid-Tigeroid War began. They quickly become friends again. Soon afterward, both the Dragonoids and the Tigeroids figure out that their respective friend is missing, and look for them. Jahara leaves the Luftdrake to find Duran. At Yuri's house both pets fight over getting Yuri's attention, fearing they might end up on the streets again if they do not. Jahara finds them and tries to kill Hak. However, Duran stalls her, telling Jahara about his friendship with Hak, and defends Hak until the Chasers rescue him. Finn realizes that there is a Tai Chi card nearby. However, Yuri has the card, and it is the "like" card. After Rai obtains the card, Yuri runs away from both pets, feeling afraid. The Dragonoid and Tigeroid teams fight after Yuri leaves, and the Chasers win, which allows both "pets" go to their right home. For failing to kill Hak, General Mischka decides to punish Jahara, since she did not return with the Tai Chi card, but instead brought the "pathetic creature" (Duran). Mishka coldly attacks Jahara with a powerful Tai Chi blast, which knocks her to the floor in pain. However, this angers Duran, since he believes that Jahara saved his life. Later, Jahara talks to Duran alone, telling him that she likes having him around, even though he is annoying. | ShortSummary = Upon seeing his new team's reaction, General Mischka, the ruthless replacement for General Vicious, sarcastically says that he was expecting a "friendlier welcome."

He begins questioning his new team about its inability to defeat the Tai Chi Chasers - Mischka considers the Chasers to be a "rag tag team of Tigeroids." Hannah calls Sena and tells her that the family is having another reunion. Sena is upset by this. When Rai asks why, Tori says that when Sena's sisters get together, it is not a reunion, it is a war. The Chasers are about to split up to find the Tai Chi Character when the sisters show up and tell the kids to go back to the ship, so that they can find the card themselves. Rai says they are not leaving and the race to find the Tai Chi card is on. The Chasers are at a disadvantage because the place is booby trapped, but during the challenge the sisters are trapped by Ave and the Chasers have to save them. After that the teams work with each other instead of against each other. For failing, Ave is sent back to Suhn by General Mischka, to receive punishment. | ShortSummary = General Mischka crashes a Tigeroid Airship all by himself, using his Tai Chi cards.

Rai is unaffected because he has the break card and tries to snap them out but it does not work. Finn is the only other one unaffected because he says he does not have dreams. Hak calls Rai and tells him that everyone's dreams will turn into their nightmares, the card will absorb everyone's nightmares and these nightmares will become real.

However, Ave is left in the past and is transformed into a child by the converging Time character, and seems to remember nothing about being a Dragonoid. In the present-day run-down house of Rai, Luva's painting now shows the Tai Chi King standing in between the fighting Dragon and Tiger.

| ShortSummary = After the Tigeroids manage to escape the Luftdrake, they receive a call from their base signaling that it is under attack. However, the Tigeroid Airships won't be able to make it back to the unprotected base, even at maximum speed. Tori uses his "fast" Tai Chi card on the Chasers' Airship, allowing it to move way ahead of the others. It is too late, since the Dragonoids Jakata and Dag have already entered the base and begun attacking, moving directly towards the base's Character chamber. When the Tai Chi Chasers finally get there, Tori passes out from using his ''fast'' card too many times, and the Tigeroid airship is attacked by Terra and Lita. The Tigeroid Airship loses its main engine and crashes, preventing them from getting to the Tigeroid base. Sena and Donha stay behind to deal with Terra and Lita, while Finn and Rai head to the base. Meanwhile, Komorka manages to stall Jakata and Dag, by trapping them with the Ahm "darkness" card. However, when Hannah shows up, Jakata manages to capture them forcing Komorka to release the Dragonoids from her Darkness card, and bring them to the Character Chamber. When Jakata notices the chamber is empty, he demands to know where Komorka hid them, until he finds the Tai Chi Characters disguised, as Hannah's bow tie, which they manage to steal. Rai comes into the room and fights Jakata, while Dag escapes with the Tai Chi Characters. Rai manages to injure Jakata severely, before chasing after Dag. Outside the base, Sena and Donha manage to defeat Terra and Lita, reverting them into dolls. Back inside the base, Finn is fighting the Dragonoid robots when he sees Dag fly by, taking the robots with him. Rai uses the ''woo/wing'' card to give chase after Dag, even though Komorka warns him not to. As Rai leaves, Jakata escapes in a bad condition, and vows that the fight is not over yet. Rai manages to get past the Dragonoid robots, and confronts General Mischka himself. Mischka uses the Yi "Movement" card to evade Rai's attacks, and then tells Rai he will fight him another time. The Dragonoids get away. Later, General Mischka defeats Dag (which reverts him into a doll), when he does not immediately give Mischka the Tigeroids' Tai Chi Characters. Mischka then laughs, saying that he now has both the Dragonoids' and the Tigeroid's Characters, which makes him close to becoming the Tai Chi King. Back at the Tigeroid base, Rai is placed under arrest, due to an accusation of being a Dragonoid spy, as the Tigeroids have observed Rai using the "Wing" card, a card that only a Dragonoid should be able to use. | ShortSummary = After the Tigeroids manage to escape the Luftdrake, they receive a call from their base signaling that it is under attack.

| ShortSummary = General Mischka returns to Suhn, in order to begin his conquest of the Universe. When he arrives, 2 Dragonoid ships chase after him. However, General Mischka uses his newly gained Tai Chi Characters to crash both ships, since he knew that Emperor Diga has learnt of his plan to become the Tai Chi King. Lord Gherba (Diga's personal guard) then informs Emperor Diga of Mischka's betrayal. Diga flies into a rage, and orders Gherba to hunt Mischka down and retrieve the lost Characters, using whatever means necessary. Meanwhile, Rai is accused of being a Dragonoid spy and sentenced to petrification, by the Tigeroid Elder Pyron. The truth about Rai is revealed. Rai is part Dragonoid. However, the other Chasers manage to help Rai escape, along with help from the Masked Tigeroid. When Elder Pyron discovers that the Tai Chi Chasers were helping Rai escape, he orders his Tigeroid soldiers to arrest them all. The other Tigeroids, except those under Pyron's command, also try to help the Chasers escape. The Chasers head to the Gate Room, because that is the only way they can escape to Suhn, to stop General Mischka. Meanwhile, the Masked Tigeroid sets a fire in the main generator room, which temporarily distracts Pyron. Along the way, Hannah tricks a squad of Pyron's soldiers into running down the wrong hallway, which prevents the Chasers from being caught. Elder Pyron and his soldiers manage to catch up to the Chasers in the Gate Room. Elder Komorka convinces Elder Pyron (the only elder who believes Rai to be guilty) to let Rai and the Tai Chi Chasers go. Rai and the other Chasers escape to the Tigeroid/Dragonoid homeworld of Suhn, through the activated portal. | ShortSummary = General Mischka returns to Suhn, in order to begin his conquest of the Universe.

Meanwhile, the Chasers arrive on the Island of the Spirits, but with the help of the old dynasty has sent care of the door Taeguek to prevent any help from Hak in finding the Spirit King. Lord Gherba, Diga's right-hand man, sends a search group to find Jakata, who tell him to assist the search team or he will be reverted to a doll, but he refuses because he wants revenge himself on Mischka, and strikes out on his own. On the Island of the Spirits, Phoebe (Luka's younger sister), a Dragonoid girl, shows up with the ''Fa'' Flower character. She ignores a warning from her tutor saying that they should now go for the future and not let it get away. Phoebe leaves and Rai goes after her, wanting to know where the Spirit King is, but he is suddenly attacked a group of monsters. Then Phoebe appears and the monsters became docile as pets and obey Phoebe. The animals were nice, but then, things were changing. Rai discovers that Phoebe has his activator. The forest fires on the other side of the island cause Phoebe to be concerned for her animal friends, and Rai starts worrying about his teammates and follows Phoebe. When they enter the forest, they find a vengeful Jakata, who started the fire in order to smoke out Mischka. | ShortSummary = General Mischka lands in a forest in Suhn with the Tigeroids' Tai Chi characters, which he now wears as a pendant around his neck.

Tai Chi Chasers also known as Taegeuk Kids on KBS World is an action-adventure and a Manhwa anime television series produced by JM Animation and Toei Animation. The series, inspired by East Asian mythology, revolves around the protagonist Rai, a child who gains supernatural abilities and becomes involved in a long-running armed conflict between two ethnic groups, the Tigeroids and the Dragonoids.

Tai Chi Chasers originally aired on KBS 1TV from 29 April 2007 to 20 January 2008. A localised Cantonese version of the series aired on TVB Jade in Hong Kong from 13 August 2009 to 1 January 2010, and an English language localization was distributed through 4Kids Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television Animation in the United States, airing on Toonzai from 17 September 2011 until 2 June 2012. The English language localisation was further adapted into Hebrew in Israel, where it was aired by Arutz HaYeladim. The Korean version was adapted by Thailand in 2008. The French dub was adapted by ARÈS FILMS using 4Kids Entertainment and Iconix Entertainment version from 6 May 2012, to 27 January 2013, under the channel Canal J.

Premise and plot

Tai Chi Chasers is set in a fantasy world that is influenced by East Asian mythology. Within this fantasy world, two ethnic groups, the protagonist Tigeroids (Korean: 호족) and the antagonist Dragonoids (Korean: 용족) are engaged in a long-running armed conflict over Tai Chi cards, a set of 500 magical artefacts that both groups seek for their own purposes.

The plot revolves around the main character Rai, a child who discovers that he is descended from the Tigeroids after his community is attacked. He therefore possesses various magical abilities that all Tigeroids possess. Rai becomes a combatant in the Tigeroid armed forces, and enhances his magical abilities. He also becomes a member of an elite group of combatants, known as the Tai Chi Chasers.

Tai Chi Chasers utilizes Korean hanja to represent the various magical abilities and artefacts present throughout the series. In the English language version, distributed by 4Kids Entertainment, the hanja characters are referred to both by their Korean pronunciations and their English language translations.

Production

Tai Chi Chasers was produced by KBS in association with Toei TV. The series was distributed and localised by 4Kids Entertainment in the United States, airing on Toonzai from 17 September 2011 to 2 June 2012. The series has a total of 39 episodes, broadcast across three seasons, with 13 episodes in each season.

The third season of the English language localization of Tai Chi Chasers was delayed in 2012 due to the bankruptcy of 4Kids Entertainment and its subsidiary, 4Kids Productions. This led to the sale of 4Kids Entertainment's assets in June 2012. Tai Chi Chasers was also adapted into Hebrew in Israel, where it aired on Arutz HaYeladim under the name Tai Chi Champions.

However, the same company that subbed Season 3 also dubbed Season 3 in English. It can be shown in the references.

The Dragonoids get away. Later, General Mischka defeats Dag (which reverts him into a doll), when he does not immediately give Mischka the Tigeroids' Tai Chi Characters. Mischka then laughs, saying that he now has both the Dragonoids' and the Tigeroid's Characters, which makes him close to becoming the Tai Chi King.

Tori cheers everyone up. The council on Earth changes the rules which were made up by Emperor Diga in Episode 26. Komorka sends Hannah to Suhn at dawn. Luka and Donha check on Jahara to see how she's doing. She seems like she is healing. Rai sees Luka practicing his sword fighting and joins in to practice for taking revenge against Diga who took his mother to the North. Rai and Luka start talking about their parents. Meanwhile in the bamboo forest, Finn is talking to Sid. Hannah arrives at Suhn and wakes Rai up (like how his mother used to wake him up). He sees General Zushen too, who has brought a gift for the Chasers, their airship. Finn brings in the box where the 2nd Tai Chi Characters were stored. Asty uses Gah the Portal card. As they leave, Hannah teases Rai again about his activator. He reveals to Hannah he has 2 (Luka gave Rai Garnia's Activator). At the base, Komorka tells troops that there is something fishy. They head for the Gate to Suhn. Sid wants to go to Suhn but Pyron wouldn't let him. They attack each other. Komorka saves Pyron. Then Sid smoke screens them with Bing the Ice Tai Chi and gets away. Hannah arrives with the box. When Komorka opens the box, she curses him. When Hannah looks inside, the contents are gone. The Chasers get an emergency call from Komorka that there is a spy on the ship and look for him. Rai finds Finn leaving the airship. They find out Finn is the spy. Rai goes after Finn but Finn blows Rai off. As Finn returns to the island of spirits, he gives Elder Sid The 2nd Tai Chi Characters. In the North, the Dragonoid Elders are in a sages conference when Lord Gherba comes in.
