The show has great animation, and the LGBTQ+ rep is amazing, and literally made me tear up at the sight of it on Disney channel, which is something I wish I could have seen as a kid.
That's really all the good I have to say. I love other cartoons that are supposedly similar in quality, and I hear practically everyone say this is the best animated show ever made (I've even seen it rivaled with many extremely well-done and popular shows), and... I don't really get the appeal. I understand that the show was cut short, and the creator had to consolidate for this, but a lot of aspects of the show are either extremely messy or just not well done.
The writing of the show is pretty weak, and feels like it came straight out of a Wattpad fanfic. The pacing of the show is all over the place. The humor falls flat the majority of the time, and has a very 2014, outdated style to it, often making me cringe. A lot of the characters are really weak and cliche / tropey, and their entire character boils down to one personality trait.
I can understand why some people would like the show, but I don't understand the obsession the fandom has with it. It seems like everyone praises every single thing this show has ever done. What prompted me to write this review in the first place was I saw a post with 100k likes saying that Hunter had a better character arc than Zuko from Avatar. If anything this shows fanbase just feels like proof that media literacy is dead.
