They really condensed the films in my opinion and really removed or shortened way too much.
Sara's kidnapping? Sad. Kinda. Find yourself a new Sara Cobbler, Janner.
Why are they bringing their little sister into a creepy mansion without their mom's consent? Bad idea. Worse than simply going their themselves.
Was the ring a foreshadowing? Blaggus seemed to be struggling from stockholm syndrome. He did a really good job of portraying himself as a friend of the fangs.
Slarbie! Really? Do they have Castle Doctrine in Skree? Either way, I didn't think he'd be that bad. I hope that they keep his fuzzy fate in the films.
Which is your favorite so far?
Episode 1
Episode 2
Episode 3
I agree with what everyone has been saying. I was slightly annoyed that Janner and Tink took Leeli with them to Anklejelly, since they could have (and did) put her in danger. I saw Sara's kidnapping coming as soon as Janner was explaining the necklace to Leeli, but I was proud of how he immediately wanted to do anything he could to save her, even if that meant searching for help in a haunted mansion. I do agree though with Anna J that Janner and Sara's relationship was a bit too focused on and that they shouldn't be going on a "date" this young. Also, how did Janner not even think twice about seeing Esben's name on the sword?? I really wanted to yell at him for a moment there, lol. But all in all, I loved the episode. The music is sooo beautiful and I'm really hoping the soundtrack is released on spotify soon! I love how they are incorporating the different glipwood creatures. The flabbit and the toe nibbler were a great start to the episode, and my family and I were laughing for a long time after watching that. I also thought that the design for Anklejelly was awesome, and I was glad they still had the ridiculous statues in front. One thing: did anyone else notice how Leeli wasn't holding her crutch right after she knocked down the door to the mansion? There must have been some glitch in the animation. Either this episode or the first are my favorites so far, but I can't decide. Oh, and I almost forgot: I really want to punch Mayor Blaggus in the face, hehe. Congrats if you read this entire comment and sorry if I sound like a negative nancy š
Was I the only one who got hope when they didnāt show Sara actually BEING taken because Wingfeather Tales might happen sometime in the future?
I agree. I thought it was way shorter and the frame rate in this one was just different somehow and felt a bit rushed. I was right about Janner going to meet Sara and Sara not being there! Also, am I the only one who thinks it's a bit strange to have the Florid Sword this early? They didn't even know who he was in the books, right? They drifted kinda far from the books which I wasn't to happy about.
But overall, I really liked it! The animation and music was beautiful! I just love how they characters interact. It just feels so real, not super dramatized.
Can I be honest and not cause a fight? I don't understand why people don't like Sara's design or her being in the show this early. I love it!
I think episode one is still my favorite. I really enjoyed episode 3 (mostly) but I felt like Sara and Janner's relationship was too focused on. I thought it was a fun idea to have them go to the manor to find the florid sword and save Sara, but they did depart from the books quite a bit. I think the condensing was mostly done out of neccesity, because of there being only 6 episodes. I still enjoyed it, though.
However, the animation and the music was amazing! I think that both of those things improve as the series goes on.
