    pretty good show

    I understand namco wanted to make the new pacman show for the new generation, which is understandable because pac-man was starting to be forgotten about. I've watched some episodes, and i will say this: The animation is good (S1 ep 1 part 1 and 2's are pretty good, the rest of the series is kinda mediocre but still good) the ghosts (Inky,Blinky,Pinky,Clyde) have somewhat a personality (same with pac man's friends) One problem is that the fart jokes are VERY unfunny. Especially since pac man is the one who holds that gimmick, it's gross and annoying. But overall i recommend this show if you like pac-man, it's on Netflix (it also used to air on Disney XD from 2013-2016) : )

    Torture

    My kids are addicted to this cartoon and it is absolute torture for my husband and I. I love certain cartoons (Adventure Time, Regular Show) and I find others to be pleasant tolerances (Ninja Turtles, Mystery Incorporated, Star Wars Rebels). But this cartoon makes me cringe every time it is on.

    Pacman and the Ghostly Adventures centers on the daily struggle between Pac World and the lame, unfunny, annoyingly voiced ghosts from the netherworld. In fact, on the topic of voices, every voice in this cartoon is like nails on a chalkboard.

    I understand that this cartoon is aimed at 7-9 old kids, but why on earth is the writing so, so terrible and preschoolish? I feel like my kids are tuned into Disney Jr., which is aimed at preschool aged kiddos. There is potential in terms of interesting story arches, but the writers entirely miss the mark. Pacman lost his parents shortly after a massive civil war that happened on Pacworld, the entire division of Pacpeople and ghosts is a result of the outcome of the war, and there are multiple backstories that are potentially dark and mysterious. The writers barely explore these subplots and it is a shame, because kids can follow sophisticated story lines. Honestly. Oh, the fart, pimple, and burping jokes are nonstop as well. Yay. fun.

    Good luck staying sane if your kids run across this tripe. It is painful.

    Not as bad as I think.

    I forgot about this show for the past years, but it never failed me to laugh to its most scenes. I understand about people somewhat disliking this since it differs from where they think about this show like the animation and voice acting, but for me, it wasn't too bad. I actually like the design of the ghosts, like I would imagine the ghosts from the NES game that what if they have personalities and new appearances.

    The protagonists are also cute and adorable to be honest. Especially Pac-man, its decent animation tops it all off and make a great contribution to Pac-man's personality. The concept of new power pellets was also interesting like giving new abilities and powers which is very helpful in the battlefield.

    Overall, it's greatly decent show, I can recommend this to the kids out there or for some who love Pac-man the most.

    Great new Disney XD show for the star of Kid vs. Kat!

    Erin Matthews hasn't really been in much before Kid vs. Kat, but I feel that she gradually became a popular VA icon with Disney XD for both that show and this one, Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures. Like Samurai Jack, the writers of this show are smart enough to keep up the good work more than half the time and almost always have good episodes, which makes it worth while for The Mysterious Mr. Enter to review the 10 best of all 52 of them in Admirable Animations.

    Like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, this is a new show in a new generation of a toy/video game franchise that's a lot more interesting than what came before it because you can assume that original fans of Pac-Man or My Little Pony that were kids in the 1980s or 1990s grew up to make this newer version with more substance and better characters. I can even recognize Cylindria, Pinky, Inky and Skeebo as the voices of Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Snips and Soarin because I know they are the same VAs. I'm glad they found a new show after 3 seasons of MLP so they're not stuck with the same show forever and have time to voice act in another one.

    Pac-Man is the Samurai Jack of the show, the noble hero who can fight almost anything, but still has his flaws and limitations. Betrayus is Aku, the hard-to-defeat villain who's very hammy. After 52 episodes, you wonder how the overall premise of the series is going to conclude and you want to see how Samurai Pac-Man eventually finally permanently removes Aku/Betrayus from existence. Let's just hope that if such a revival does come up that ties up all the loose ends from the beginning, it's not an adult audience revival like Samurai Jack, because that will really ruin what made the original kids show great and turn our hero into something really cruel and awful that even the villain would be scared to see.

    • Trivia
      All of the vehicles are based on fruits and vegetables.
    • Goofs
      In the first episode, Pac-Man, Cyli, and Spiral must eat berries to protect themselves from exposure to the Netherworld. This makes it clear that the Netherworld harms all Pacworlders equally, yet in the episode "Betrayus Turns Up the Heat" Pac-Man's yellow power allows him to withstand the Netherworld's effects when in theory it should hurt him anyway.
