    A Must Watch

    This show is amazing if you someone un interested in the animation, the voice acting is jaw dropping especially for the character Macaque (Rip Billy Kametz) There are ten 11 minute episodes to season 1 and the two "movies" are both just 40 minute special episodes. The first one is technically a pilot of sorts which takes place before the first season, it's called Monkie Kid: A Hero is Born. The second 40 minute special is kind of a kick off to season 2, Monkie Kid: Revenge of the Spider Queen.

    These are lovable characters with so much heart, you get very attached to them and surprisingly the villians as well. I recommend this show for all ages!

    Based

    Based special, plain and simple. The pilot episode of Monkie Kid is about drive, it's about power, they stay hungry, they devour the Yeezys off of the store shelves to get stronger since the rarer the item, the more powerful DBK becomes.

    Wonderful!

    Super cool and great! Love the story and the animation! Qi Xiaotian is super relatable to me with his clear anxiety and uncertainty in his future that he covers up with a bright grin. The character relationships are great, even with all the mystery surrounding Sun Wukong's past relationships, and my top favorite has to be the friendship between Qi Xiaotian, Long Xiaojiao, and Red Son (dubbed the Traffic Light Trio). I really really wanna learn more about Chinese mythology thanks to this series! This is more than I expected from something meant to sell toys.

    In short, give it a watch! You won't regret it!

    (Also buy the LEGOs. They look really cool.)

    THIS IS WAY BETTER THAN NINJAGO!

    Fantastic! I would recommend this to all my friends. Can't wait to get the sets!

    BEST LEGO ANIME MOVIE AND SERIES EVER !!!!!!

    1. It's actually directed by a female director herself, and AMAZINGLING EPIC !

    2. The animation and all of the stunts that they put in this anime is great.

    3. This should be rated tv-y7 including the series to, since there is no profanity, gore, and sexual harassments.

    4. And I'm a fan of Legos to including this movie and series to.

    finally, 5. I'd hoe there will be season 2, 3, and 4 and I hope each episode will be 20 min's longer than 10 min's, and I'm already enjoying the series so far.
