Tomb Raider: La leggenda di Lara Croft

Lara croft is a legendary franchise, from the jagged edged video games to the modern movies, she has become an iconic character.

This TV show fails to capture almost any element that makes the character what it is. Lara croft in this show might as well be super human, to the point where even people who play the video games will be forced chuckle. The script is hilariously bad, with plot holes making you question everything from the very first episode and that could have easily been remedied with a little bit of attention.

To make matters worse the unrealistic dialogues land on your ears like screeching chalk on a board. This is not how normal people communicate.. I refuse to believe the voice actors are this bad, therefore I can only blame the direction that they were given by the production team.

The animation is fine, nothing ground breaking like Foghill of the five elements or the Blue Eye Samurai, but it does not drag the show backwards like all the other elements do. So the show deserves some praise for that. However it cannot save the overall product from being bad.

Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara is just a poor attempt at reinventing a legendary character.

Just another typical modern adoption of a thing gamers used to love.

The father figure trauma made me want to scream at the screen so horrible, boring and cliche it is.

Lara seemed soft and incompetent......instead of the strong amazing character I remember from the games.

She does too much crying.....like every episode?!

Not a fan of the animation or art style.....animation fps drop and I don't know why or how or......wth is happening.

I'll just stick to the videogames from now on. Not sure who this was made for, but definitely not all the kids who downloaded the mods for lara croft videogames.

Really dissapointed in this one.

Honestly if Tomb Raider wasn't in the title I would hardly ever realize this is Tomb Raider related.

There was maybe one episode where "Lara" didn't cry. There were zero episodes where she did something on her own, she always needed help from someone else.

The storyline was as generic as it can get. Serviceable, but generic.

The environments were very nice, but I generally disliked how the characters looked like. They all felt too cartoony for me and out of place with the environments.

This show also wouldn't exist if she used her guns from the beginning instead of the last 10 minutes of the last episode.

All in all, it's not terrible, but it's nothing to write home about either.

That's the inverse of anime. Anime is supposed to have strong drawings and always cares about movement details. Second, this is not Lara Croft by any means. She is supposed to be enthusiastic, determined, and funny, but what I watch is the opposite of that. She seems more controlled by whatever incident happened. Personally, I don't love this series and don't recommend it for any anime lover or anyone who loves Lara Croft. I feel sorry because I waited for this anime. I think it could be better, especially when we talk about celebrity personas in Hollywood stories or video games. Finally please don't make part 2.

Everybody loves the original Lara Croft. I don't get why hollywood writers always feel the need to steal respected IP then strip away all the edginess that made the character lovable and unique. They replaced Lara with the generic "strong female lead" personality we've seen in literally every other movie/show that's been released in the past 5 years. Oh, and this show's story/plot - you've also seen/heard the same slop a million times. Who keeps hiring these mid writers? Obviously, no one smart goes into writing anymore and there is a big lack of talent in the industry but still, it's wild how often this same generic slop is released and how rarely a good show is actually released like Dan Da Dan or Blue Eyed Samurai.

Instead of actually using the interesting strong female lead that they paid to licensed. The turned her into the most stereotypical and uninteresting character I've seen in a while. Writers you literally had this show tee'd up for you had you used Lara's original character but you still managed to strike out somehow.
