This new series by the Mexican animated studio, Ánima Estudios is a soft-reboot from their originally developed Netflix Show with a new narrative, not continuing the previous events of the original. As a its own series it can be sometimes, an improvement from the series.

Everything of this movie is enhance by the Spanish dub; Harley's voice is so much better and the film feels good. Personally I don't tend to see movie in my primary language that often but this wast a must. Hated the new voice of Harley here but liked her Spanish counterpart. is so much better.

Go watch it.

In 2007 Ánima Estudios launched an animated feature called "La Leyenda de la Nahuala" based on a Mexican legend filled with great dialog and characters but weak story. Even do they have a weak story, it was very interesting and filled with many possibilities with the story. The franchise spawn 3 more movies called "La Leyenda de la Llorona (2011)", "la Leyenda de las Momias de Guanajuato (2014)" & "La Leyenda del Chupacabra (2016)" which expand the universe of the films and became one of the most successful movie franchises in Mexico and it began an international expansion all across Latin-America and the USA. "Legend Quest" or "Las Leyendas" in Spanish takes advantage of it's established characters and fix every issue the movies had. With beautiful animation, fantastic storytelling and great voice acting. The show feels pretty fresh having elements of the successful show Gravity Falls with connected stories and the episodic mysteries of Scooby-Doo. I feel this show have a lot of potentials and it can take advantage of being a Netflix Original and being able to go pretty mature like shown in episode 9 called Nu Gui and others. I hope this review gives you more interest of exploring the adventures of Leo San Juan and it's friends. Hope it gets renowned for a few more seasons and gets the chance to become one of the best show of the decade. I feel so proud Ánima and every accomplishment the studio have made over the years and become the pioneers of quality animation in Latin- America.
