Kung Fu Panda: La leyenda de Po

Well, I'm actually surprised with this show. It's definitely not as good as 2 films.

Animation is worse than in the movies, but not that bad. My only remark is that they sometimes use the same model for different characters, only changing the color of the robes. But even Disney is doing that. TV series cant spend as much money as for the movies. For example Aladdin TV series. Every male child looked like a miniature Aladdin, with same hairstyle.

Voice acting is GREAT. Voice actors are so convincing (except Tigress), they sound like their movie counterpart, especially Mick Wingert as Jack Black. And John DiMaggio and Richardson are great as Fung and Temutai.

Story is OK, with one or two plot holes.

New characters are good. Maybe little clichéd, but they're not annoying (for example "Aladdin" had Abyss Mall the worst cartoon character in history!!!). Some of the villains are even great, like Junjie and Temutai.

Overall, the show is decent. Nothing special, but if you liked Kung Fu Panda, you're like this too.

The "Kung Fu Panda" movies are all amazing (especially the second movie). And now, here we got the TV series. "Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness". The TV series tells the story of Po and the Five against evil. Well, i gotta say the TV series didn't looked as great as the movies. The animation isn't like "super-duper good", it's alright, but i kinda liked the animation they used in the movies better. Although, "Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness" ain't that bad of a TV show. The story is kinda lacking with some weird plot holes, but i say it's okay. In fact, i saw an episode of the TV show and i really enjoyed it. It still got the great sense of humor and the awesome fight scenes just like in the movies. I don't know what other people think about it, but i really liked the TV show. If you're a big fan of the "Kung Fu Panda" movies, then you'll might like this one too

8/10

I have always loved the first two Kung Fu panda films for there likable characters, simple yet charming story's and full of fun action scenes/comedy scenes.The third movie was good but it felt lacking in areas and it wasn't as good as the first two in my opinion. But the third film still had great action,animation and music to make it an enjoyable film overall.This TV show is a mixed bag by many people and while it's flawed in places, it can be pretty entertaining and it certainly has it's good episodes. The Show is funny and it has some great villains to(while others are meh at best). The animation is decent but since it's a TV show based of a film series i can kind of understand why it turned out the way it did. The music is decent and the action scenes are still fun to watch. The characters are a bit different and nowhere near as good as there film counterparts mainly Po who seems to be a bit more annoying then before. The voice acting is actually pretty solid and certain characters like viper and Mr ping sound the same (since they were voiced by the same actors). I would say check out this show if you are a hardcore Kung Fu panda fan and while it's characters are a little more unlikable then there film counter parts it's still worth having a look at.

firstly. i have watched season 1 and 2 of it - and it was not boring; so the show is not making too many mistakes.

But i caught myself getting annoyed at the main character ( Po ) - and started liking the villains much much more. ... Which should be a problem for such a show.

My main criticisms:

• Po is unlikable. Not quirky but "good at heart" as in the movies ( KFP2 ) but much MUCH more annoying - the Furious Five seem to be a nothing but single-liner-punching-bags ... extremely disappointing. - almost no character ( good or bad ) has any significant development. They mess up one episode to learn from those mistakes - just to mess up a few episodes later again - for the exact same reason. - inconsistent continuity - you never really get a real idea of the peace valley, its inhabitants or the jade palace dwellers. in short - the village and the valley appear to be very very empty, especially compared to KFP1&2 - but that is probably due to the TV sized budget - the show gives a rather bad example for kids. While it hints at the other aspects of Kung Fu other than beating each other up - it never shows it. Every problem seems to be solved by beating others up - usually followed by Po admitting the truth to a mistake. ( not always but so often that it gets old ) - few consequences for the violence shown - although it is a kids show it would be nice sometimes to show that getting beat up actually hurts.

I cannot help but compare it to 2 other animated shows i consider kind of similar in terms of story-arc ( mêlée combat focused "chosen one" shows )

• Avatar, the last airbender - which in a brief summary does almost everything right - Xiaolin Showdown - which has a better continuity, character development and arc ( it does get weaker after season 2 though )

on the plus side though....

• the visuals are nice. not as great as the movies of course, but still nice. the animation is well done, the movements are well done and do not feel too repetitive - it captures the feeling of the movies well. - it has some funny villains - the story and characters get "slightly" better after mid season 2 ( very slightly - and occasionally )

all in all a 6/10 from me - above average and no waste of time, but by no means as enticing as my current standard "Avatar, the last airbender" ( which does not quite include Korra )

The kung fu panda movies are awesome. The first two are fantastic and the third while very good doesn't come close to the first two. The TV series imo was entertaining, funny, action packed, had some cool bad guys like ke-pa, solid music that fit the situations,animation while inferior looks pretty decent for a TV series based on a film series (lilo and stitch the series had worse animation then the first Lilo and stitch film yet no one seems to bash that). The characters are still expressive in emotions and I like how they have the same character designs in the films. The show does have it's really fun and funny episodes also such as enter the dragon which is an hour episode and is awesome to watch. The voice acting sound's really good a lot of the time and it has fun character intreations, the show does have it's not so good episodes and it's characterzation can be of sometimes like po being a bit more bad mannered at times tho most of time he wasn't that bad in the show but it is noticeable if you watched the films (I pefer his character in the movies tho, The furious five and shifu are like this but po is the most noticeable one). The writing is mostly well done with a few hiccups here and there. The theme song is really good also. Kung fu panda LOA gets a bad rep from fans and I can see wwhy but as someone who loves the films i actually was entertained by this. It's funny, cheesy( good kind of cheesy) cute, and has it's really cool moments. I think it's great and i would go into it with an open mind with thinking it's a kids show, you'll like it more if you do that.
