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.
