Jenaro V Sep 27 Esperaba ver monstruos y acción y el inicio de Monarch y como fue creciendo con los años, pero en cambio nos dieron un drama familiar muy aburrido con personajes con los que nunca conecte, sobre todo con Cate con lo irritable y cambiante que era, solo vimos la creación de Monarch y ya, no supimos como fue creciendo a través de las décadas, además ese intento de romance que intentaron mostrar entre Cate y May siendo esta la ex de Kentaro que al final queda en la nada misma... muy flojo todo, rescato los efectos visuales que están excelentes, el nuevo titan y a Kurt Russell que es lo mejor de toda la serie con demasiada diferencia.

See more Nikolaos T Aug 10 A Missed Opportunity in the Monsterverse As a longtime fan of the Godzilla franchise and the broader Monsterverse, I approached *Monarch: Legacy of Monsters* with genuine excitement. The premise—exploring the secretive Monarch organization across generations—had the potential to deepen the lore and deliver thrilling Titan encounters. Unfortunately, the show veers away from what many viewers likely came for: the monsters. 🎭 Character-Driven, But at What Cost? The series centers heavily on Cate Randa (played by Anna Sawai), whose personal journey and family mystery drive much of the narrative. While it's commendable to build strong female leads, the execution here feels unbalanced. Male characters often come across as passive or sidelined, and the dynamic occasionally leans into a narrative that diminishes their complexity rather than elevating everyone equally. A more nuanced ensemble approach could have enriched the story and avoided the impression of one-dimensional gender dynamics. 🐲 Where Are the Titans? Despite being set in a world where monsters like Godzilla exist, their presence is surprisingly minimal. The show teases Titan lore and occasionally delivers impressive CGI sequences, but these moments are few and far between. For a series marketed as part of the Monsterverse, the lack of monster action makes it feel more like a family drama with sci-fi elements than a true kaiju epic. 🧭 Final Thoughts *Monarch* had all the ingredients for greatness: a rich universe, compelling mystery, and a stellar cast including Kurt and Wyatt Russell. But by prioritizing character arcs over creature spectacle—and by leaning too heavily into a single character's perspective—it misses the balance that fans of the genre crave. I hope future seasons recalibrate the focus, giving Titans the spotlight they deserve while continuing to develop characters in a way that feels inclusive and multidimensional.

A transição entre presente e passado é excelente e as surpresas realmente surpreendente. See more Albert S Jul 26 Enjoyable series. Great vfx and great plot.
