It's always nice to see things that reflect our culture on the big screen and after watching the whole series at a sitting also watch the making and enjoyed seeing what went into it. I was curious as to the theme but listening to the making put that in context.

I hope to see more things like this using artistes from the cultures represented. Nigeria is a multifaceted country and hope to see more content showcasing the many different cultures like Hausa, Igbo, itshekiri, ibibio, etc. However, this is a good start. I also loved the fact that this was a work that took almost 4 years to realize. That's not normal for Nigerian movies and it shows.

Thank you and looking forward to seeing more representation. It's important.

Great show....absolutely authentic. Proud of the show, proud of the creators and grateful to Disney for the opportunity to showcase an African story.

Watched it and was aesthetically pleasing to watch and authentic in its rendering of a quintessential Africa (Nigerian & Lagos) story.

Kudos to the Disney team, writers and Director/Producers. They were able to project a different and real view of an African story that is unique but has universal implications and appeal as well.

This will go a long way in shaping young artists, animators, sketch writers and graphics and VFX professionals outlook on how to imagine, create and execute such inspirational storytelling.

This show does have a unique premise and location, being a Sci-Fi in Nigeria. However, I couldn't find this show particularly entertaining, my little sister did like it though. The main character seems good enough, though I wish there was some more depth put into them. This is a safe show, it's not risky at all besides the themes of kidnapping, and it is just boring to watch. It feels empty, like so much of the things Disney has been creating. With that said, I still think the show is good and it's not cheaply made or written, it's just missing that Disney magic that made some of my favorite Disney cartoons.

This animation didn't disappoint, Disney did a good work wiith it. Not to drop any spoiler, this is a must watch for everyone, it's funny, a little bit of action, family and tech. It won't be bad to see more of this kind of animation coming out of Nigeria.

It really nice to watch movies that reflect our culture as Nigerians. This animation is one an adult and kids can watch.

Would have loved to see more. For a mini series the story felt rushed. It should have told us more about the characters in it. We have so many tribes in Nigeria, the movie made it seem like we just have Yorubas only.....

Very good. In fact, really good. Probably the best thing to come out of Disney Animation since Encanto or Once Upon A Studio, and especially since most of their recent projects, with these exceptions, have been sub-par to say the least. So, it was quite a surprise to me when I found out the studio were doing this little show. However, it kinda went under my radar for about a month, which isn't a shock considering they put in little to no marketing for this thing. I did see a trailer for it which got me a little interested but not enough to fully convince me to watch it in a hurry. But when I eventually went to watch it, I was genuinely shocked by just how good it was. There's a great amount of world building and cultural representation which I appreciate the team for doing since it was a show about Nigeria. I was also shocked by the amount of serious subject matter discussed in this show. About poverty, the upper class vs the lower, and the conflict between their economic values and moral judgment. The studio had covered racial issues before in Zootopia but nothing on what the levels of thus series has. No spoilers but there's plot detail and twist halfway through with Tole's best friend, Kole and his mom involving the lead villain that I think goes in a particularly dark place that I wasn't expecting. Not to mention, it can get really sad abd emotional with the character's and their relationships in a way thats dramatic but also feels so real and impactful. On top of that the animation I'd still relatively good. It's cheaper by the standard of their movies, but it has that Disney Animation touch with the character animation and the assets that feeks more high quality than most straight to streaming shows. (*cough Megamind vs The Doom Syndicate) If I had any complaints about this series, it'd be the ending act. While I won't say it's bad, but I feel it was a little undercooked, especially with the villain who gets defeated way too easy in my opinion. Plus, the lizard wasn't used nearly to the potential I thought they were building up to in the trailer. They did show it's powers sort of, but not enough. Really it was just false advertising IMO. However, it was still a great series that was a pleasant surprise. It's severely underrated and hope more people give it some attention. Kudos to the people who made this show and how much heart and effort they really put into making it. Hope they make more original short form mini-series like this one.
