Right Stuf Anime describes the synopsis as follows,
“Professor Hiiragi discovers the existence of Mon World, an other-dimensional world full of monsters and powerful hidden treasures known as Monster Items. Determined to connect Earth to Mon World, he creates the Utopian Eagle, a ship capable of traveling to the next dimension over. Hiiragi embarks on a voyage of adventure with his fifth-grade daughter, Rockna, and her classmate, Mondo.
However, they’re foiled at every turn by Prince Eccentro and his assistants, who want the Monster Items for themselves in order to conquer both worlds. Becoming the heroes known as Mon Colle Knights, Mondo and Rockna join forces with the monsters of Mon World, striking back against Prince Eccentro while searching for the Monster Items in the name of friendship between their worlds.”
The anime was directed by Yasunao Aoki with music from Hiroshi Sakamoto. Tony Oliver, Scott Page-Pagester, and Michael Sorich served as the voice directors for the dub.
