Eyes of Wakanda is short but not sharp; while the idea of blending history with interconnected characters is promising, its execution is too superficial and fails to leave a lasting impact.

So we are destroying history and legends for some DEI slop, its a shame because visually it looks great, the animations are great but lets be real achillies killed Menmon and falsifying legends with lies is why this show ****

This anthology series tells stories of Wakandan secret service members who are sent on missions to the outside world in order to collect technological artifacts that could reveal the existence of their homeland. The animation is high quality, as is the writing. I hope they make another season.

’Eyes of Wakanda’ is a short 4-episode limited series that takes you through Wakanda’s influence throughout time. The animation is smooth and looks great on screen while the voice actors do a good job of bringing the characters to life. It does enough to present a semi-interesting story, but in the end the short running time doesn’t help to fully hook you and leaves you wondering if you’d ever come back to revisit after the first watch. ‘Eyes of Wakanda’ is worth that initial watch for what it presents, but left us feeling like we wanted to see a bit more with more connections between each episode to make it feel like everything had a bit more weight and importance to it.

The series does well at not relying on superheroes or familiar faces, but the Disney-style animation and anthological format don't suit it at all.

No one asked for this show to be made. Even by itself it feels like an Ad for future Marvel TV Shows & Films. Plus it doesn't even feels like it's part of the MCU cinematic universe, but instead an alternative reality that most fans stay away from located in Universe 999999999.

Their treatment of the battle of Troy was absolutely a violation of other cultures history. To the akin of casting the holocaust as a fight to benefit the needy in Germany. I am disgusted and horrified that this would even considered an investment opportunity for any company. People complain about whitewashing and black face, yet let this abhorration of a cinematic device see the light of day is deplorable. It is so bad I literally made an account to give this abortion of a mini-series a negative review I enjoyed reading The Odyssey in high school. I enjoyed reading greek and roman mythology (as well as many other world mythologies, from native american, to scandinavian, to african, to egyptian, to various asian cultures (indian, chinese, japanese, etc). To see a mythology so baselessly **** of its origins is just horrible. Defending this as free speech would be akin to defending the KKK and their viewpoints.

Why do these people always have to try and **** on other myths/properties to promote their own? Achilles needs help from Wakanda? Seriously? Then again, the whole set promoted the idea that even black men with superpowers needed women to guide them. Hell one of them was even Japanese. They can't even get their DEI messaging right. Honestly, I wasn't going to like this because I find nothing compelling about Wakanda or Black Panther. How can you get behind a country that allows their neighbors to suffer in endless civil wars and a slave past just to protect your jiggly metal resources? Wakanda ****.

Animation is choppy and poorly done... Disney and Marvel are really not trying any more with some of these new shows.
