Randy Cunningham - Der Ninja aus der 9. Klasse

This show has some REALLY good jokes and references, the character designs were made by Jhonen Vasquez and are pretty great! Because I can go on a LONG ramble as to why this is a great show I'll just make my points, reasons to watch:

The characters are incredibly diverse and will grow on you, there are so many smart references to catch, The other fans are some of the sweetest people I've ever met. Did I mention the art style is really nice, because it is. Viceroy exists, if you don't like Viceroy I don't trust you.

This is a neat show, I didn't expect to like it at first but it's just such quality! I'd love more television like this, actually.

I'm going to be completely honest with you. My first impression of this show was "what a weird, quirky, and stupid show."

I still uphold to my initial impression, because it is weird. It's quirky. And it is wonderfully and wittingly stupid. Those qualities that first shunned me from watching the show happens to be some of the best aspects I've come to appreciate and enjoy. What I mean by wittingly stupid is that the show writers are aware of the stupidity that they've written and aren't afraid to poke fun of it within the episodes. And what seems like stupid remarks at first glance are actually well thought-out, witty lines, that it brings a certain idiotic charm to the show (yes, I use the term 'stupid' a lot, but it is very much used in an endearing way).

And this show is beyond just those three qualities I have mentioned. The art is cartoony looking because...well...this IS a cartoon, but the animation flows extremely smoothly which makes ninja fights, scarf movements, and even the way the characters bob up and down from walking great eye-candy. If you really pay attention to the background art (which is a bit hard to miss), you'll get a beautiful visual with color schemes that'll make you want to hug the artists for providing such beauty for your eyes to soak in. Each episode is fast-paced but it works really well for the show's style, and every second used is never a waste.

As for the actual plot line, I won't give anything away, but for a show that uses a lot of cliché (good vs. evil, high school hero, etc.), it brings something new, fresh, and unexpected every time, which is why this show never gets old for me (although I admit, I may be old for this show). And yes, I may be part of the older audience, but this show brings laughs and entertainment for both old and young. Enough simplistic jokes to make the kids smile, but more than enough witty banters to reel in the adults.

There is more to this show than what I've just written, but I'll let you guys watch it to see what makes Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja such a spectacular hidden gem of Disney.

The main duo is a pair of high schoolers who are written surprisingly realistically. What do you think a teenager would do if they suddenly got superpowers? Use it for personal gain and generally disregard the authority meant to help him control said powers. The humor is strange in that it can be viewed as trying to be funny and failing, or trying to mock teenage humor and succeeding. Personally I view it as the latter.

Just replace the made up slang used in this show with swear words and you have the most accurate depiction of high schoolers I've ever seen. Also, the theme song perfectly conveys the tone of this show, with lyrics like "what the hey? Come on you? What the juice? He's so bruce.

Where do I even start? I love this cartoon to bits. From the top-notch animation to the awesome jokes and the BEST voice acting i've ever heard. The story is original, intriguing and well mixed with humor and action. The character designs are so good and unique and recognizable! Even the background characters are designed one by one instead of being a faceless mass. And speaking of backgrounds, this show has beautiful ones, and overall amazing color schemes. Every single character is SO good and relatable! Main characters? Villains? Secondary characters? Awesome. Every single one of them. They act and speak realistically. Tired of teenagers with the vocabulary of a linguistics major? Look no further, because in this gem right here teenagers use a made up slang that would translate into actual swears (which teens happen to say a lot) and that could slip into your talking! Seriously, just try it and you will NOT be disappointed!

I started watching this show because it was recommended to me after watching Danny Phantom due to similar hero tropes. Super fun and goofy if you're looking for a relaxing, feel good show. Of course, the fan base will provide you with anything other than that. The animation and voice acting is amazing, and the character designs were done by the same guy who did invader zim, which is really nice to see his art in different things. Jokes are both enjoyable for kids and adults with some jokes about early 90's tech and a lot of titles are jokes off of titles from other TV shows, books, movies, etc.

Overall, really fun and enjoyable show for all ages!
