Dragon's Dogma

I thought this anime was brilliant. It was very entertaining and each episode had a moral philosophical meaning embedded within it. I found the story very profound and the overall message that if we as human beings do not operate out of love we will succumb to our desires. If we stop using our hearts and allow our worldly desires to consume us, we become the very same monsters that we detest.

Overall, it is a short entertaining anime series with a fair amount of wisdom contained within it. I definitely recommend watching it and hope there is a second series. I almost did not watch it because when I checked the reviews they were fairly low. It was good enough to warrant me making an IMDB account in order to provide it with a more respectable rating.

Between the style changes (between 2D and 3D animation) throughout the series and the bad monster 3D models, it's hard to believe Capcom green light this for even the seven episodes it had.

This is a fan fiction at its worst.

Just play the game, it has a plot.

Animation is very slow, like watching a movie in slow motion. So i suppose they simply slow down the CGI to get 32 minutes per episode but render only 16 minutes. This technique is very old and used for lousy productions. It is very lame, and you can clearly count each frame sometimes.

The story, the dialogue, the characters ... are pfffff forgettable at best.

And the most important: D.R.A.G.O.N.S Dogma DRRRAAGGGOONNNNS You know what ? It is the most horrible, awful animated, ugliest dragon i ever seen -_- How is that possible to give us something like that when you get so many incredible dragons this last years in Game of thrones or Lord of the Rings ... My god, a correct dragon in 3d cost at most 600 $ GODDAM IT and looks like Game of Throne in real time !

And the animation... sometimes it is very good! MOST of the time looks like automate. In 2020 this is very bad. The rendering (aspect, pictures) is good, but sometimes and 100% when a dragon is on screen it is very very bad. The colors do not even match the backgrounds. Seriously guys ... i can do better by myself !!

Hey NETFLIX, put your money into The old Guards II or Castlevania, but please forget this awful thing. Total waste of money for you, total waste of time for me.

BAD animated TV show.

I've only watched 2 episodes so far but I will say I'm liking this quite a bit, the main issues I have with the show is the CGI/2D mix art style, and the voices sound really bad in English so I had to change it to Japanese With subs and that issue was fixed for me, other than that I'm loving it so far.

Dragon's Dogma the video game, was a blast to play. It has great combat, magic, and an interesting world, but sufferes from the same thing this TV adaptation has. Bland characters and story. I wasn't expecting this series to have a compelling story anyway. The entire premise is insane, yet engaging at the same time. The characters in this series have little development, and aren't every interesting to watch on screen. They aren't bad, but I felt like the show could have stretched more episodes in there, to make us feel and connect with the people we are following through this bizarre story. It felt like Netflix was being a bit curious with the show, not giving it much attention. It could have been a fantastic show, because it shos amazing potential throughout its episodes. It's very violent, addressed serveral human issues, has stunning animation and world design, a stunning soundtrack, and a very well done opening title screen. It just needed that extra attention, to give the story more time to develop. Maybe Netflix will add another season, and built upon the issues with season 1. But that aside, Dragon's Dogma, is entertaning, for a quick watch, but won't stick in the mind for long after its finished....but really no epic sayings like "Wolves hunt in Packs!" or "They're Masterworks all, can't go wrong!" 6/10
