    Not familiar with the series outside of its recent addition to the mtg canon. Anyone here watch season 1? Worth it or nah?

      I’m a big fan of the original, and so my opinion is skewed, but the Netflix show seemed to take all the love and care for the worldbuilding, the thought and time put into the characters, and the intricacy and pacing for the plot… and just throw that shit in a blender, add some thematically antithetical violence and a shit-ton of unnecessary CGI, and crap out a super polished, extra-stinky turd.

      Season 1 of this is not as good as season 1 of the original cartoon. But for someone not familiar with the cartoon, it’s certainly enjoyable. Similar to Netflix’ One Piece adaption.

      There is no live action in ba sing se. The live action adoptions are terrible by contrast
