Now before you downvote this read it through. This show is OK (no pun intended) , but has a lot of frustrations with me. One is the animation and "action" scenes. The animation well is fine.... other than the fact they go off model every few seconds. I know this comes from the philosophy that Rebecca sugar and Ian Jones quartey set up for Steven Universe which is Artistic Freedom (which it honestly works better in this show than SU) but it can get frustratingly distracting and honestly off putting at times. Like Enid's legs change in proportion to the rest of her body all the time, sometimes they can be punching bags and at other times sausages(that was an over exaggeration but you know what I mean). Also I refuse to believe that this is an action show. Almost everyone tells me that, but they are very few action scenes and all of the actual action scenes are pretty bland. Want to know shows with cool action scenes. One of CN's most recent shows Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart (which actually has an OK ko alumni working on it) and Rise of the Tmnt (I know a lot of people hate that show but the action scenes are awesome as well as its animation). A huge problem I have with the action scenes is that they take place almost always in the same place on level ground, so it ends up being monotonous. Moving on to the characters, they are OK. However I don't like KO, I don't hate him but I don't like him. At times it feels like the writers try to exaggerate his cute factor and he just comes off as annoying, but I can see why others adore. I very much like Rad and Enid and their voice acting. Ian does a stellar job on that. I don't like Lord Boxman his just stereotypical and not that funny to me, I don't like Shanon, Darell or Raymond. I do like Carol an Gar though. Those have a particularly interesting past. The show isn't that funny though can get genuine laughs from me, but I've seen much funnier like Gumball or early Spongebob. I don't find the artstyle that appealing but the character designs are pretty good.
Honestly just an OK show, I'll watch with nothing better to do. Say
score 6/10
