Anime TV Show
Level-5 first showed a short CGI movie of the anime in 2015. This gave everyone a peek at the characters and story.

The English version of the show started airing on Cartoon Network in Australia and Southeast Asia in late 2019. You can also watch the English version on Crunchyroll in some countries.
Toys and Merchandise
Snack World also has a cool toy line from Takara Tomy. These toys include:
- Jara: These are small replicas of weapons.
- Snacks: These are tokens that let you summon monsters.
Both Jara and Snacks have special chips inside them. You can use them with the Snack World: Trejarers game on the Nintendo 3DS. When you place them on the screen, you get the same item or monster in the game! There's also a toy called the Fairypon. It lets you hear special sounds and play small games with your Jara and Snacks.
