Dragon's Dogma (2020)
Better than expected
Many people may be turned off by the 3D-2D animation style as well as some of the English voice direction initially. I was almost turned off by it myself but I am glad I stuck with it after the first couple episodes. The writing, animation, and VO work improve significantly around the third episode. If you can stay around that long, you may be pleasantly surprised by well written character growth and some tantalizing side stories. Dragon's Dogma is short and sweet and does not outstay it's welcome. However, it may actually be too short. I appreciated the resolution but was left wanting a deeper exploration of the protagonists and just more in general. This series, as a whole, felt like a movie that was awkwardly split to lengthen it and therefore stifled it's pacing. Overall, thought provoking themes as well as some entertaining action make the show worth a quick binge.
