Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight

All the other reviews are correct too, I didn't start watching this series because I wanted to but because I had nothing else to watch and yes the animation is of lower quality, the first season kind of feels like okay-ish, Po seems weak and the Villains have no strength but if you manage to push through to the 2nd season and then the 3rd, the Villain (I don't want to name them to avoid any spoilers) shows a strong character and the adventures kind of start gripping you, you kind of start admiring the team and by the end of it, I was sad it was over, this was a lot of fun and I wish they had invested a little more into this series.

Tired of seeing a dragon master as weak and helpless We want him as a proper teacher not a cry baby Give him cool chi powers of oogway Story is good except weak po but too long Poor animstions 2008 movie is better No budget for fight choreography?

"Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight" (S01, 11 eps, 24-mins, Netflix) is a disappointing sequel series to KFP: Legends of Awesomeness (2011-16). First, you'd think Jack Black voicing Po would be great, but I really prefer Mick Wingert who voiced Po in Legends and other KFP series and video games. In fact, Jack Black is an EP for this series and he seems to have banished Mick and the others that voiced the Furious Five. The only carryover character is Po's "father" Mr Ping still voiced by the same guy. Anyway, there's new villainess "Veruca" the weasel who's voiced with an annoying Cockney accent so you despise her even more. Though the series lacks supporting characters - only Luthera really, and lacks the "heart" of Legends, the animation is still excellent, and the story is pretty decent with a good hook for its sophomore season as Po continues his evolution from Dragon Warrior and Dragon Master to Dragon Knight.

Po is undeniably an audience favorite and a spin-off series with Po voiced by the legendary Jack Black sounds like a good idea. But is it? The animation is poor with a few good-looking frame. You get used to it after a while and it's definetly watchable. Kids will like it.

The story is basically Infinity War. The trilogy was already perfect and it showed Po grow into a true master, and now this is what he acts like? It's however not the biggest deal since there's been Kung Fu Panda spin-offs before. It's a fun watch but nothing close to the movies, but kids will enjoy it.

Show progresses slowly. Animation is good for a DreamWorks TV show and voices original actors such as Jack black. Story is similar to Avengers: Infinity War. Po was tasked to get the Gaunlet but two bad guys attempt to steal it first. Their plans backfire but Po accidently let them get away with the town surrounding the gaunlet being destroyed, leaving people injured. Po is then not loved anymore and no one is his fan anymore. The emperor of China even revokes Po's title of Dragon Master. Po meets an English Knight who is tasked to retrieve the gaunlet to save England. Po sees this as an opportunity to team up with the knight to save the gaundlet in order to reclaim his title for Dragon master and to be loved again. The story is too simple however and feels as if it drags on. The episode feels like it could be 11 minutes instead of 22. Plot is good but the pacing of the plot is too slow. Acting is good animation is good directing is good. For some reason Po is seen as gullible and dull here but in the movies he was stronger and had developed to be a true master. I wonder why he had been downgraded in this show. The movies had already been a great ending for the franchise as Po had fully developed and became a perfect person. Otherwise, it is worth watching. 7/10.
