Also known as Zatch Bell in the English dub. It was on Toonami for around 1-2 years if I remember correctly, then they just cancelled it out of the blue.
It's about a little blonde mamodo/mamono boy named Gash Bell. And he was sent to Earth from the Makai (in japanese version translates to hell) to compete in the battle for Mamodo King. He's first found in England by Kiyo Takamine's father (forget his name), who then sends Gash back to Mochinoki, Japan to try to help Kiyo since he was having problems socializing with the others at school.
But the Mamodo battle is that 100 kids (including Gash) are sent to our world to compete in the battle. However, they have to find a 'book owner', that can read the spells out of the mamodo's given book. Only one human is able to read one mamodo's book. The mamodos that are teamed up with a human (who can read their book) then form an alliance. But it's not all fun and games, the human/mamodo teams now have to try to burn the other teams books. Cause once 99 of the 100 books are burned, the last one standing becomes mamodo king.
A brief summary of what the show's about with no spoilers.
It also didn't get very much TV publicity/advertising, so it's pretty much unknown/unheard of. Though to me it was very good despite the low ratings.
