Star Wars: Aventuras dos Jovens Jedi

Its Star Wars for KIDS! As a HUGE star Wars fan for over 40 years Im always looking for ways to get my younger kids into it. Clone Wars and Rebels are absolutely fantastic but are still essentially adult continuations of the films. Some of the adult themes and stories can be hard for them to follow. Thankfully THIS show came around for my youngest kiddos! It's THROUGHLY enjoyable for adults and thank goodness it's not complete cringe, like so many other "for little kids" shows out there. This show is just great all around. Its cute enough for the kids to enjoy it and follow but not so dumbed down to be annoying and unwatchable. And the best part of all is it FEELS Star Wars! Absolutely recommend even if you dont have kids!

My son loves this show, and for good reasons. The colors, voice acting, animation and sound are all great for a younger audience and the stories and messages presented in each episode will really resonate with him and other kids whenever gets a little older. As adults, we should get rating this show based on how children will react to the show and enjoy it. Of course any good show has to be entertaining to their parents as well, and I can confidently say that there's a plethora of very annoying and mindless shows for children out there and this show isn't one of them. I obviously won't watch it by myself, but I'll have no problem turning it on for my kid.

Like most of the top reviewers have said, the show is squarely aimed at children. We're talking under 10. So if you have a child who's a preteen then most likely would not e joy watching this. I am by no means anywhere near a preteen or under the age of 10. I enjoyed this show very much as a huge Star Wars fan. For me I was actually anticipating this show when it was first announced.

Young Jedi Adventures takes place in the Star Wars era known as the High Republic. This was an era recently introduced in Disney's canon and essentially takes place after the Old Republic and about 250 years or so before the Battle of Yavin (so basically before the first Death Star was destroyed).

The High Republic era was first introduced in graphic novel/ and novel format with the book LIGHT OF THE JEDI. Essentially, this era is where the Jedi were at their peak, with a heavy emphasis of spreading their influence throughout the galaxy.

So, no Skywalkers or any familiar characters will appear here outside of long lived characters like Yoda, who does make several cameo appearances.

Outside of the premise of the show being aimed toward children, the animation is very eye catching and the voice acting isn't bad at all. The show is formatted as an "adventure of the week" sort of deal with some inklings of an overall story arc taking shape. For the most part, the first season is essentially just showing the characters engaging in their...everyday Jedi adventures much to what the titles says!

So yeah, kick back, don't set your expectations high and enjoy the show!

Just wanted to provide a counter to some of the outrageously dim reviews on here.

Firstly, this show is simple fun that manages to capture some of the magic, adventure and sense of infinite possibility that Star Wars is always about.

That being out of the way - some of the comments written by adults on here are painful to read. The sort who want to watch everything Star Wars but are critical of it all by default. Don't get me wrong - I myself don't rate 3 or 4 of Disney's newer Star Wars shows and films, but that doesn't blind me to the fact this specific show is clearly not designed for me, and that in itself doesn't justify a low rating.

Coming here to criticise a show for 5 year olds for being "illogical"...? The only excuse for an adult to write such tripe is severe learning disabilities. Sparing that, perhaps reconsider your entire personality.

I have an almost 4 year old son, this is the perfect sort of content to enable us to enjoy the Star Wars universe together. The themes are light-hearted and appropriate for this age range. If you've watched "Spidey and his Amazing Friends", this show will feel *very* familiar. It's low stakes, easy watching fun for kids.

As my son gets older, I can introduce him to the more mature SW content, but for now, this is ideal, with most of the themes focussing on things children around that age stand to benefit from - teamwork, sharing and inclusivity.

Some negatives from me - I would have liked to have seen more cameos from iconic SW universe characters aside from Yoda. The main villain also seems a little lame in the context of SW - for comparison, Spidey gets to battle against iconic villains such as Doc Ock, Sandman, Green Goblin and Rhino, our Jedi friends battle against a pirate kid.

As a final note, because apparently needs to be explicitly mentioned - not all SW content has to be consumable by adults, or have some sort of adult theme running through it. It's perfectly acceptable to have multi-generational content to attract varying age ranges to the franchise. If you're an adult looking for fresh SW content, carry on looking, you're not the target audience.
