Unicorn: Warriors Eternal

The master Tartakovsky brings us his pure passion project - two decades in the making - and it definitely has the unmistakable hallmarks of this sort of thing: richly complex lore and wildly unfocussed tone. The style here is idiosyncratic and fascinating, a Fleischeresque 30s fluidity that is more Boop than Jack, which takes some getting used to but is utterly captivating. As such it ends up this strange mash of melodrama and pure cartoonishness. It's sort of... deeply uncool, but I dig it. Whether we get the full four season vision when even die hard fans aren't that taken with it we'll see but I'd love to see the whole story!

Its about these magical warriors that lived long ago and they fight evil. This show takes place years later in 1890's England. This robot is going to certian people and balsting them with the spirit of those warrtoirs so the warriors can be reincarnated. Its a fun show. The art style is gerogous. The backgrougs look phenomical. The character designs are reminicent of Popeye. Which makes since because the creator loves Popeye and worked on a canceled Popeye movie for Sony. The characters so far are Malinda who was a princess but was turned into a witch. She can fly and can make magical blasts when she gets emotional. Capernicous the robot,Sung a cosmic monic who can fly. His head is litterally in the clouds, and Eldreid a warrior elf. Even though this show comes on adult swim now its a family friendly show.

Unlike MANY of the shows that Genndy Tartakovsky had some part in this unicorn: warriors eternal, is taking longer for me to warm up to, i am only on episode 4, but so far i am NOT very impressed, i am willing to give it more time and am hoping it will get better.

The steam punk theme is interesting and i must admit intriguing but the main characters are a bit flat and the advertisements that came out introducing the show gave away the villain.

The art is good a lot like samurai jack and the back ground characters are some times more interesting than the main characters, the back ground characters supply SOME humor and color all the while being placed in danger to supply the suspense, what little there is of it.

The series feels like an animated movie padded out with extra episodes rushing to resolve some of the previous setups. All the while creating literal run in circles episodes in the end.

Things go downhill after KO of the main antagonist with everyone else unable to even stay alive to pick up the slack. Hero challenges become vague, contradictive, rushed, or outright dropped.

The setup is good, the art is great, starter characters are interesting, but after 20 years on the cutting room floor a lot of the best parts of the story was lost.

The writers need to go through the feedback and fan criticism before committing to season 2. Everyone likes the series premise, but not the second half execution coming up so short.

This is the type of show were you always want to gave a look at the background, it is so beautiful and full of details. Probably for those that just want a full of action toon this is not for you, this one for those that enjoy Easter eggs here and there. You can see that definitely they want to merge old style and modern animation and i love it!! The outcome is artistically really nice. The character development is kind of slow and not much have happened there until the 3rd episode where i'm now. FInally there are really funny 1 second moments i hope they keep these. The adult and child them is every where so it is a series for all.
