Kipo et l'âge des Animonstres

This show went absolutely above and beyond my expectations. While I went in thinking it might be an enjoyable watch when I've got nothing better to do, I've now seen the whole first season and am on the edge of my seat waiting for more! The animation is pleasing to watch, the voice acting is perfect, the characters are diverse and have well-written and intriguing backstories, and the overall feel is exciting and fun, but with darker undertones that really ramp-up the experience for older viewers. On top of all that being enough to keep me engaged, the music is exceptionally well-chosen and clearly had a lot of thought put into it, giving me a mixed vibe of Steven Universe's Rebecca Sugar songs, and oddly enough, the Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack. Overall I'd say this is a great family show for tween/teenaged kids and any adult looking for a playful escape that isn't mindless like many cartoons made nowadays.

Kipo and The Age of Wonderbeasts is one of the best shows ever made from DreamWorks Television Anination and Netflix. I does remind me a lot like Avatar: The Last Airbender, in fact, the animation reminds me a lot like not only Avatar, but also great shows like Voltron: Legendary Defender, She-Ra: Princess of Power (2018), and The Legend of Korra. Also, both the story and the characters are really nice too. I think it's best for me to recommend this show to anyone. I give it a 9.5/10

I like the animation, it reminds me of the 90's while still appearing fresh.

The plot is unique, even if the premise isn't. The premise of living in a world after devastation that is.

I enjoy Anime and animated series/movies - when they are good. Delightedly, "Kipo" is one of them.

The premise is interesting, the characters are nicely defined and ultimately very interesting, and the story quite fascinating and fresh.

The music used is also quite incredible and really helps to draw you into the world.

Both Kiddos really enjoyed all three seasons of this show, and went through them pretty quickly - though they do rank it below She-Ra and Avatar. I watched most of the episodes, and for me, Kipo is just such a fabulous character, with her combination of exuberance and strong sense for what's right, that she steals the show. The idea of humans learning how to live side-by-side with mutant animals is a nice change from the usual concern in science fiction with robots and artificial intelligence, and the idea of REVERSE genetically engineering them back to "normal," and thus taking away their mind, is also really original. Though it is also problematic in that it under-emphasizes the sentience of the animals we live with today. It was also interesting that the apocalypse itself is never discussed--in my view, unfortunate choice. Finally, if you enjoyed this show, check out Nausicaa and the Valley of the Winds, from 1984, which has a very similar plotline: a heroine tries to re-unite humanity and the mutated natural world (toxic jungles and giant insects) some centuries after an apocalyptic event.
