Caçadores de Trolls: Contos de Arcadia

I had come across this series on Netflix, and after watching the first season, I love it! I thought it was a really awesome show from DreamWorks.

The series is about a teenager named Jim Lake Jr., who found an unusual amulet in the midst of a pile of rubble that was under the city bridge. In the evening, two trolls, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!!, came to Jim's house and explained that the amulet had chosen him to be the first ever human "Trollhunter," a guardian who protects an underground world of trolls and gnomes from wicked trolls. The troll pair also stated that the rubble pile belonged to the previous Trollhunter Kanjigar. Jim tries to adapt to his new-found position with Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! Also, with his best friend Toby's help, an evil plot is unfolding in the city of Arcadia, which makes it difficult to figure out who is a friend or a foe. That is all I know.

So overall, I love this series for its fantasy, humor, and awesome animation.

Simply this is a great show with all the ingredients: 1- The "journey of the hero" narrative; 2- Lovable characters; 3- Really funny supporting roles, jokes and situations; 4-a lot of adventure and imagination; 5- Great acting, storytelling and rhythm. 6- smart script to engage people from kids to adults. 7- The consistency of the del Toro universe, with some familiar places and designs.

When I finished the last season, I began to watch it again. This is not common!.

The only flaw I can remark is the loss of momentum in the last season, in which the script is showing some fatigue, coincident with the long expected troll-humans clash. The third season finish with less freshness and a more conventional tone.

At first glance, this might look like a kids-only series to any adult that sees this in the Netflix menus.

However, it is extremely captivating with lots of relevance to adults too (just look at all the reviews!). Much more relevant than expected.

As a couple, both of us (age 43 and 56) have gotten hooked. Please keep publishing more original animated series like this on Netflix, it keeps us coming back for more.

We just finished watching Netflix Original Series of The Trollhunters series' based on Guillermo del Toro's book. The story line is brilliant! There are plenty of twists & turns. Just when you think you know all the tricks, more pop up and surprise you. Being an animator myself, I really enjoyed the special effects. They were artistically done without over doing it. The animation is wonderful with beautiful landscapes. The voice talent is especially stellar with Kelsey Grammar and Jonathan Hyde! Thank you Dreamworks! My family ate it up and are clamoring for the next series! Will there be a 2nd or more series? If so when might the 2nd series happen? Thank you again for fabulously entertaining series!

An incredible series, for the whole family and all ages, fun story, heroic, romantic, epic, full of mythological beings presented with a phenomenal freshness. It contains all the nuances necessary to captivate the public. Worth a second and third season at least.

The characters are solid but do not have enough time in the first season to develop. We did not finish seeing the different facets of the main characters. Being a story based on mythology has incredible possibilities to continue and delight the audience.

It would be a shame not to continue, for my refreshing result to see a proposal of this type of part of Guillermo del Toro, which, without departing from what he usually offers us, ventures into animated projects with a lighter character, being a story fit for everything I publish without being boring or bland.

In my particular opinion the lamentable loss of Anton Yelchin should not mean the truncation of this incredible proposal. I think there are enough actors in the market who can bring new life to Jim's character.

Do not miss the opportunity to enjoy this first season.
