Total Drama and Tenkai Knights
12 years ago
General
more tv babble. I watch too much of it. just my thoughts on things and stuff. sorry for spelling and weird type-o's half my brain is turn off.
anyways Total Drama just started yet another series and I'm not quite rolling my eyes at this one. I haven't been too invested in the Total Drama series(es?) throughout but appreciate them (I guess is the word) for what they are and poking fun at all those reality competition shows. and as the series progressed it got sillier as I think it realized it was a cartoon. :B. I was catching the total drama world tour right before grojband over the summer so was watching that cause its on and definitely not a total fan of the art style :B. but it probably suits the reality show stereo(arche?)types. it was kinda fun I watch the World tour from start to finish pretty much. and I like what they are doing with this new one. rather than being just another with new contestants and stuff its taking some notable characters from the Previous serious and pitting them in competition with each other. is kind of like a best of sort of thing. and I have to say if you have paye dany attention to the total drama characters in the series, I find myself attracted to those who make up the villainous team: Heather, Duncan, Gwen, and Alejandro(?) are probably my favorite I guess I could say. I found them most fun :b. and say what you want about the show but I quite enjoy the original theme song XD. anyway just thought this Total Drama All Stars series wil interest me enough to watch. and of course gotta love Chris and the Chef.
In other news I was up last night (friday) working on some coding problems which had me finishing way into 4am saturday. and after I submitted it I had CN on whcih I just have playing constantly on the TV is just how I am. I like to have things to look at at least while I do other things. this show I haven't seen yet (marked as new series) came on. It was called Tenkai Knights. I started to roll my eyes but was actually looking at it and have to say it is pretty legit o3o. definitely a cut above the rest the other kids anime CN likes to play. you know, Bakugan, beyblade, scantogo whatevers. This was definitely hooking me in. I think its the premise which is kids in the human world are called to protect another world. and, get this, it doesn't hide itself within a halfbaked game or toys. now I do like the early anime series of yugioh and beyblad (fom what I remember anyway) good examples as starting as game and sort of diving deeper into its core (opinion!). this tenkai knights was giving me a sort of digimon crossed with code lyoko feel and I was enjoying it XD.
But yeah Tenkai Knights was surprising gem in premise and not only that. the animation and style was definitely a cut above those shows I mentioned. (bakugan and beyblade). the hair is a little weird with its whole fade thing but thats just part of the style. I definitely see the quality in the eyes and faces(opinion!). As if that wasn't enough, the part that probably fully sold me were the voice actors. I'm a dub kinda guy because reading, ain't nobody got time for that shit (except PSG). it had plenty of voice actors I really liked. I dont' remember by name but characters played. if you watch english dub it has voices of: Sakura Haruno, Hoagie P. Gilligan (KND and love him here XD), SGT Frog (also shing prince also Death the Kid), and to my pleasant surprise only guy I remember by name XD Johnny Yong Bosch (voice of Ichigo Kurosaki, Renten thurston friggin any other anime and games :B. he's got like my favorite voice. say wha tyou wan tbut thats my opinion and I feel its worth note).
This results in me not getting immediately annoyed at the way the characters sounds. like in beyblade. I wish they would just dub over some dbz sounds for the amounts of yelling in that show :B. ha if Jenga had young goku's voice huh :b. anyways voices I love, concept I can get into, and neat looking mecha things crossed with legos, more like Gundom SD cross Lego kind of reshaping I guess XD. its not AS obvious that this is to sell toys but uh yeah. get yours today.
I'll be looking forward to the next Total Drama All Stars and Tenkai Knights (amg why does it have to be so early)

I've checked out a bit of Tenkai Knights. I'm a little more interested in the toys than the show, though. The idea of Lego-esque bricks that transform into minifigs, and other such things is kind of neat. They're being made by Spin Master, though. They aren't horrible, but they've always been in that lower-mid tier. Something like this needs to be made very well to be a success.
