Ignore the idiot who posted that negative review based on biased opinions of anime rather than the shows actual worth. True is an incredible show for young girls and it's actually pretty entertaining for the parents stuck watching it 300 times a day like myself. Technically, the animations, modeling, textures and shaders used by their art team are TOP NOTCH. Even for today's standards. I'm a 3D Artist myself so trust me when I say that. The voice acting is impeccable and the writing is actually extremely entertaining a safe for children. I'm easily annoyed with today's media shoving socio politics in kids shows but thankfully this one doesn't do that. It simply teaches kids to be positive, creative and kind. This show is absolutely wonderful and my 2 year old daughter watches it EXCLUSIVELY. By choice. I've seen every episode a dozen times each. So I'd say I'm far more qualified than the other reviewer "Andrea". Final Verdict: It's a child-safe show reminiscent of Adventure Time. If you need something to sit your daughter in front of, you can't go wrong with this. It's not bad for boys either. The cat is hilarious. I'm a 37 year old father so if I can enjoy it, anyone can.

Not sure how educational it is, but the first episode had a mini lesson in it about calling names and making people feel bad/lose confidence. My 2.5 and 4.5 year olds were both entertained and music wasn't bad. It was weird though. Very weird.

My 2 year old is obsessed with this show. Helps me get stuff done around the house!

This show follows a little girl named True in a world of whimsical characters. Each episode presents a fairly silly problem that is easy for kids to understand. After looking into the problem, she will visit the wishing tree. At the tree she recieves three "wishes" that all appear as glowing yellow orbs. True recieves three wishes, each with a specific power such as reflecting light, freezing ice, making dots, inflating or being long and stretchy. The wishes at alive and turn into cute little forms to match their power. The wishes are stored in True's backpack until she need them.

She must then use the wishes to creatively solve the problem. To emphasize this, the characters take meditative poses and take deep breaths before working through the issue. Their is a strong focus on calm reasoning and creatively using the tools you have available to address a problem. Even though True can't control what wishes she recieves, she always manages to use their powers to work through the problem.

My 5yo daughter and my soon to be 3yo son love the show. Good messages and bartleby is the best!

We absolutely love this show! I often find that these kids shows have a lot of sass back and attitude and the characters are mean to each other. But to see a show that is so conscious of how they speak to each other and how the characters treat each other is very refreshing.There's nothing mean about the show, everything is good at its core,there's no mean kids! Even the so-called "villains"of the show are just misunderstood and that is a refreshing Viewpoint to see in children shows. It really is sending the message that everyone is worth your time and energy and some people struggle more than others to make the right choice! we love the show and the music is hilarious and wonderful.

My 4 year old daughter has been watching this since she was 2. The show is VERY well made, has some nice lessons for children is colourful and silly enough that it keeps kids entertained.

I've got no qualms about letting my daughter watch this show. Kudos to the creators.

I'm surprised at all these great reviews. My 3 year old daughter watches it sometimes but I don't think she understands most of what's going on. There are so many different characters and creatures and the stories are often very hard to follow I think. The cat talks so fast and is all over the place, very annoying. I think my daughter might enjoy it more when she's like 5 or 6.

My 6 month old is very active..... This show is the ONLY show she will sit and watch. The problem with this is I dont see any True rainbow kingdom merchandise , like a doll for my daughter, other than that the show is awesome

First of, I really hate this show because it's plots serve no purpose, annoying characters, and ripping off animes like Onegai My Melody. Clearly, they're trying to cash in to compete Sanrio. The only good thing about this show is that the Wishes are like Kirby's copy abilities. Final Verdict: STAY AWAY FROM THIS NETFLIX COPYCAT, YOU'RE BETTER OFF WITH ONEGAI MY MELODY, OR ANY OTHER SHOW YOU CAN FIND THAN THIS HUGE PIECE OF TRASH!!!!

This show teaches good values to your kids, (no immoral characters like most shows) and is actually tolerable enough for parents who view TV with their kids. Both my son and daughter love this show, so it's enjoyable for both girls and boys. Not to mention, the animation is adorable!

Obviously this show is made for kids so I'm not going to critically analyze the plot as if it was going for an academy award. honestly love this show!

Very nice. Good series. 10/10. It's very bright and colorful.

My daughter has watched this since it debuted. As any parent knows, if a kid likes it, they will easily sit there and watch the same thing ad nauseum so it's nice that the production values are good. The stories are easy to follow and her sidekick Bartleby is funny. I also like how they meditate before attempting to solve a problem - it's a nice habit and my kid has used the breathing exercises IRL.

All four of my kids love this show and they range from 4 up to 10. They all enjoy it.

We absolutely love True! It's perfect for young kids (and my older kids and I actually like it, too)! True and her friends are kind and thoughtful and work together to solve problems that often have a little life lesson to take away. I love how they pause, take a deep breath, and take time to think about the problem before rushing off to solve it. I also love that there are no "bad guys". Even the friend, Grizelda, who is a little self-centered and easily could have been "the mean girl" is actually a good friend and when she realizes her actions cause problems for others, she does her best to right the situation. No one is mean to another, they are positive and lift each other up, and they are concerned about others' feelings, but not in a sickly, sugary, over-the-top way. It feels very genuine. There are no scary scenes, the creatures are adorable, and the songs are cute. And her cat sidekick, Bartleby, is actually pretty hilarious. He throws some fun/playful sarcasm in there for adults without being negative or rude. The writers do not try to sneak in political agendas or push opinions on viewers, and there are no disguised adult themes/jokes/almost-swearing that has become so popular in kid shows. It's just good, clean, caring, using-your-brain-and-heart fun.

Brilliant and uplifting in every moment.

Clearly made by people with a deep-seated love of anime: the titular True rides a flying cloud like Dragon Ball's Goku (called "Cumulo," not "Nimbus"), she has a Sailor Moon-style "transformation" sequence, and solves problems by summoning "wishes" with hyper-specific abilities and highly limited vocabularies like Pokémon. If there's any doubt, there's even an episode featuring a "Hinotari" bird, a clear reference to the Japanese "hi-no-tori," or phoenix. But it all comes off as affection, not cheap pastiche, and it holds the series together so well I'm surprised they haven't marketed it in Japan. Japanese kids would love this.

The show features bubblegum animation in a world where many major features are alive, including mountains, buses and the sea. It focuses on problem-solving with perseverance and positivity, with almost all conflict due to accident, ignorance or a well-meaning mistake -which might be the show's one limitation, since the relentless positivity means nobody is ever really forced to reflect on the consequences of their actions, though True is sometimes challenged to convince characters to give up on their more destructive desires for the sake of harmony in the Rainbow Kingdom.

There's an insistence on stopping to think before diving at a problem, and in every episode, True's first two wishes don't completely resolve the issue at hand - and sometimes actually make it worse - so she has to adapt and think of a creative way to use her third and final wish.

There's no educational value for kids in terms of counting or reading, but the show lays the foundation for an unerringly positive, can-do attitude in the face of adversity, as well as showing that people should be valued even when they do things that unintentionally cause us problems.

The relationship between True and her cat friend Bartleby is absolutely delightful, and the giant purple yetis, who can only talk by screaming, are utterly hilarious. We love watching this over and over with our child.

My 3 year old is obsessed with this show and out of all the Kid shows that I've had to endure, this one is actually enjoyable. Love the cute names and creatures they created. The graphics are adorable and they have some great life lessons in there. Barnaby is my favorite!

This show is amazing! It is my daughter's favorite show, and I'm so glad because it is so wonderful. If you like to keep screen time limited, but want that time to be quality, this is the show! It teaches valuable lessons for kids and everything about it is beautiful and well done- the animation, the stories, the voices, EVERYTHING. A lot of kid's shows obviously cut corners and have a lower quality than shows for adults but with True that is definitely not the case! There is a lot of hard work and attention to detail here and it shows. Their songs are great too and it is really enjoyable to watch with her. I recommend this show to everyone!
