This is NOTHING like KFP: LOA, it's a kiddie series
30 November 2018
So very, very disappointed. This series is NOTHING like Legends of Awesomeness that ran for 3 seasons. Instead, this is a pre-teen, kid friendly series that will disappoint anyone 14 and up. This apparently takes place well after LOA since the Jade Palace has fallen into disrepair and there's no reference to the Furious Five or Shifu. However, "Po" is now referred to as the Dragon Master since the term Dragon Warrior is apparently too aggressive. He's still dressed in the same patchwork shorts and voiced by the same actor. But the students aren't the diverse kids from the village as before, now they're all homogenous pandas. And so I hit the reject button, sorry, couldn't last past two eps. Look, the production values and music are very similar to LOA but the characterizations and plot are clearly for the 8 yo set, so, so disappointed. And I'm the first non-shilling parent apparently to rate it less than 9, it gets a disappointing 4 since it's marketed as mainstream but clearly it's for the cute little strip-mall dojo white belts that arrive by mom's Dodge Caravan.
