The structure of Big Hero 6 The Series is just like that of any weekly show, where there is a villain of the week backed up with an overarching main antagonist working in the background. The artwork and look of the series is absolutely eye-catching and resembles hand-drawn classic 2D enhanced with digital touches. My favorite part of the animation is how the outlines of the characters aren't solid, but made to look jagged as if a real person drew them right onscreen.
A lighthearted tone carries the show and keeps it from getting too intense for young viewers, but not discouraging older audiences from enjoying it as well. The action and fun onscreen is accompanied by an energetic musical score that reminds me of The Avengers and great audio effects for every animated moment. Made up of most of the cast of the original movie, the show is excellently voiced.
Hiro and Baymax, along with friends Wasabi, Honey Lemon, Go Go and Fred, form the legendary superhero team Big Hero 6. Together, they protect their city from scientifically-enhanced villains in Big Hero 6 The Series: Back in Action.
Big Hero 6 The Series: Back in Action contains the first seven episodes of the show. It also includes six bonus shorts pairing Baymax with one of the other members of the team and Mochi the cat.
The voice cast of Big Hero 6 The Series: Back in Action include Scott Adsit, Ryan Potter, Jamie Chung, and Genesis Rodriguez reprising their respective roles from the original film. Brooks Whelan replace T.J. Miller as Fred and Khary Payton takes over the role of Wasabi from Damon Wayans Jr. It's rated TVY7 for violence. Running time for the shows is 175 minutes.
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.
