Todd B @ToddB1975 Feb 23 Enjoyed it! It took a little bit for me, but it started cooking - then abruptly ended. This season is way too short. (I'm an avid DnD player.) See more Steven S @jhksauser Feb 22 Great show. Despite the high number, each of the characters felt useful and interesting. See more Adrian B @abailey1909 Feb 21 Very entertaining and a fun watch. I thought the story and dialogue were clever and interesting, and it kept me engaged every episode. It's a medieval, fantasy, GOT kind of setting, but if you're not into that genre, I think you will still enjoy it. It's still different from most shows out there and definitely worth a watch. I really hope they do a season 2. See more Alan C. @Indred Feb 13 Even better than vox machina. Just SO GOOD. Stick with it as it can be a bit slow at first See more Sandy Paul @FreakySandra Feb 11 As a critical role fan since 2019 and a keen watcher of the Legend of Vox Machina, this adaptation of the Mighty Neins Story is a great treat both in story telling and looks. The animation is beautifully done and the characters even in their somewhat new dynamic still shine through as the ones we fell in love with many years ago. I especially loved to see how #1 NPC Essek (Hot Boi~) gets upgraded as an additional Main Character. I am most excited for more of this show, and hope that just like Vox Machina, we will get to see the story of Exandria's unsung heros in it's full, newly told way! (More Seasons Greenlit when?) See more Nicholas D @Lowkeywhacker Jan 31 Huge fan of DnD but this was a bit perverted, not funny, and none of the characters were likeable. See more Read all reviews
