Star Wars: Resistance

I don't really like the art style but the story is pretty interesting and I hope it improves

...thank god they are bringing back Clone Wars.

This show was made for kids ONLY. It does not have the universal appeal of CW and Rebels. Adults fans of SW will not like it. Such a disappointment. The characters and plots have no depth.

When this show started I was aboard the hate train because I was tired of Disney's new direction of Star Wars and the first episodes felt really disappointing and boring. As of mid February, the show has gotten quite more promising and interesting than from where it started. All of the characters except for Oscar Isaac's character (Poe Dameron) felt really dumb at the beginning, but became more interesting as they became more developed. The plot at the beginning (which consisted of plane racing) became more of what the show promised, becoming more of a war in space than what we see at the beginning. If you're an adult you probably won't get much out of the show, but it serves as way better of a show for younger folks than Star Wars Rebels does.

Although I liked the fact this series adds to the story of the last 3 films (kind of), the main star Kaz is just so damn annoying, so is his green friend Niko who is like this animated series version of Jar Jar. I watched all of season 1 and now on to 2 but Kaz is beginning to seriously ware thin. He is just too clumsy it's not even funny. Star Wars Rebels had some seriousness too it, this is like a piss take.

Resistance is the weakest of the three recent Star Wars cartoons (the others being Clone Wars and Rebels if you are unaware). It is content to be a basic children's show. There's nothing really wrong with the episodes; they are mostly decent. The show has a nice and diverse cast. I don't see any kid not being entertained by this.

It's just that from an adult Star Wars fan's view that the stories and characters never meet their full potential. Even the series finale felt like it could've been more.

As for the show's appearance, it shifts from regular 3D animation to a cell-shaded-type 3D. The spacecraft and locations look really nice but there is always something a little off with the characters. I think the issue is the lack of line work.

Overall, I can't either recommend this or say you should avoid it. If you want something for your kids to see, it'll do.
