Big Hero 6: The Series

I watched Tangled: The Series, and I was interested in what other shows Disney channel and Disney XD had to offer. I have always been a big fan of Gravity Falls, and Star vs. the Forces of Evil. I love the story, characters, fights, and I was even able to get my siblings into it. I thought it was funny, and was able to make me laugh every time. I was worried that they would overuse what the audience thought was funny in the movie, but I underestimated the show. My siblings don't usually like the cartoons I watch, so if I can get my family interested, you will be!

I was a huge fan of the movie. I would have loved to see another movie and then we got a series, so I was intrigued to see what it'd be like. At first I thought it was weird they switched the animation but I think it works for a Tokyo style comic show that's easier to animate. I think they were really trying to appeal to kids with the series and I think at some points it's more noticeable and kinda hard to watch. I'd say my least favorite part of the show are those annoying lightning dancer villains (if you know you know) and that Fred's stupidity gets tiresome. They could have absolutely done without the dancers it was too cringy. It's a somewhat bearable show that can be interesting at times but there's not much that made me keep watching other than Baymax, Hiro, and go go's necessary pessimism.

The series didn't really interest me at first but with the arrival of some interesting villains it just got better. The best part though, in my opinion, was the character of Karmi and the love / hate relationship with Hiro / SuperHiro is adorable. It is really a shame that it all ended in a stalemate with the third and final season that did not bring the story forward an inch by limiting itself to episodes of about ten minutes and disconnected from each other. A real disappointment.

I know there is a Baymax spin-off series in the works, but I am super disappointed the Big Hero 6 series is being cancelled because of it. I like the personalities of the characters and the way they work together as friends and superheroes. Baymax is obviously an important character in the series, but a show focusing more on him and his duty to care for people's health and well-being seems boring to say the least.

Kids have to be realistic here, they can't expect the same animation quality for the series than the movie. Sure, the transition from the CGI of the film to the 2D animation of the series takes a little while to get used to but by the end it flows perfectly. And kids must understand appearance is not the only thing in a movie or a series. Big Hero 6 The Series feels like a sequel, the humor is there, the action is there, and most importantly the heart is there.
