Le Roi Loup

A really solid story and great animation offering from Netflix. I have not read the books and have no idea how the show compares, but it makes me curious to read them.

I see a few complaints about the animation style and the story development! I understand both complaints but I have to disagree... you can't always have every detail in a story. Though I would have like to have seen a little more relationship development between the lead character and his group of friends. The time period of the show seems as if it takes place over a couple of weeks but there is a couple statements that makes you think it is a much longer period. Those inconsistencies could have been avoided. But I don't need every detail of his origins.

I completely disagree with the complaints about animation. It was a choice and it works. The target audience is young people. Like early teens maybe... so the animation style is almost nostalgic for children's books and shows, yet of a quality lending itself to quality art.

Bottom line is, it's worth the watch whether you are 12 or 52!

I was really hoping for a show about werewolves with an intriguing story and feral fight scenes. But instead, they made it much too kiddie. Which is a very strange choice for the subject material, people turning into savage beasts and fighting for dominance.

I didn't expect a mature series for teens to adults, but this felt very neutered.

To such a point where a werelord will attack someone and there will be no blood, no scratch, not even a tear in the clothing?? I'm not asking for brutality, but you can show some damage.

The plot felt very rushed, and I barley got to know the characters. At one point characters are crying for fear of losing another, but it felt like they spent a day together.

The plot and characters are archetypes I've seen many times over, and they didn't do much special with them.

The things I did like. I thought the animation was visually appealing. Although, the low frame rate can be a little off putting at times.

The idea of the characters are good. I liked the supporting characters, good to see some strong female characters. I liked how the more lady-like one could still pack a punch when needed. The world building has a lot of potential.

I've never heard of or read the books, but werewolves are right up my alley. But once again, werewolves get screwed over.

It's sadly just ok. I'm sure families will enjoy it, but anyone else will find it quite underwhelming.

The art is beautiful, and that beauty is what carried me through to the end of the season.

The plot, at a very high level has all the basics, and an interesting premise. But when going through the scenes, *all* of the main characters are unbelievably stupid. Worse, they're just sketches of characters. We don't get to actually know or really understand anyone. We don't even find out a key "were" aspect of one of them until the 2nd to last episode... and we don't find out why some that should have powers don't..

There are hints of intrigue that stop early and go nowhere, or mean absolutely nothing.

If the writing was an attempt to make it accessible to younger audiences... what we got was a jumble of half-starts and shallow excuses for random hand-to-hand fight scenes. I don't know if it was the writers or the producers that screwed this up; but I'm left with naught but disappointment and sadness for the animators.

My family won't be getting exposed to season 2, just in case the stupid is catching.

Animation frame rate is like 10 to 13 frames per second. It's so hard to watch. I want to watch it. But it's giving me headache. Feels like flashes of photos. Pacing is ok. Fast pace. I could only watch with lots of effort for about 20 minutes of first episode.

The colours seem to be good quality. Dialogues and music looks acceptable.

They should use a software to create extra frames and release a smoother version for people who struggle to see the original one.

Lots of people are talking about the novel. And that it's a great story. Shame it's let down by silly frame rate of animation. Hinest review.
