Awesome Magical Tales (2013–2014)
7/10
I'm sorry but... I like this show.
20 May 2020
Don't get me wrong people can have opinions and all but out of ALL of the hub shows I have heard of, it hurts to see this show get criticised the most and got probably the shortest end of the stick. But for all of those haters and people who overreact to EVERYTHING, here is what I think.

1. The animation. The animation of course is one of the things in the show I am NOT a huge fan of. It's sort of choppy at times and there are a few scenes where the animation has some errors and some weird angles. Now in order to explain the positives of the animation without triggering a wave of crazy 14 year olds I'm gonna have to bring in another show into the mix. Kuu Kuu Harajuku. Both TFD and KKH have similar styles of animation. They both have flash of course so there is that. But there are still some differences. For example, THE EMOTION. In Kuu Kuu Harajuku the characters lack a lot of facial expressions, but with TFD, there are a few scenes where the characters have some funny facial expressions and some faces too. Another difference I want to bring up is the movement. Most of Kuu Kuu Harajuku's episodes feature some lack-luster movements that feel slow or static, but in TFD, a few episodes of the series have more movement and feel a little more smooth (My Cousin Myron is one example).

2. Characters and personality. These characters oh my god I CANNOT get over them. I'm sort of happy with the approach the show decided to go with. They didn't force in TONS of stereotypes, and some of the characters I actually feel bad for at times, even the ones that viewers should not be sympathising with. I also like the personality of a few of the characters and why they are like that. Also I love the designs of the characters even if a few of them look like Disney knock offs.

3. The story. To be honest, I love this plot. It's like a mix of Monster High and Shrek. It features a fairytale world mixed in with modern society. (Keep in mind I didn't decide to reference Ever After High for the plot. This is because TFD was accused of being a rip off of the series, which it was NEVER.) It's not much but in my opinion it's quite wholesome. Also I like the references to Fairytales and other literature in the show. It gives off the vibe and feel to the show.

So in conclusion, I like this show, and if you have a problem with that write your own review I really don't care.
