It's captivating. Not to mention the stunning performances from the cast as they dive into these characters and breathe life into the story. The Mighty Nein is an incredible adventure series that earns its spot as a top-tier fantasy TV show.

The show does a fantastic job of introducing the characters and adapting a long-form chaotic source material into an engaging story.

The Mighty Nein’s comparatively slower pace means that our core characters have time to breathe on their own and form satisfying, lived-in one-on-one relationships before getting tossed into an ensemble.

Despite the more ambitious setup and mature tone, the CR gang have retained the incredibly character-driven storytelling, with the endearing pairings and party dynamic front and centre.

The show has its own unique feel that makes it stand out as more than just a continuation of Vox Machina, with a new group of distinct and flawed heroes, and a bigger focus on expanding the scope of the story.

We want the show to be compelling and relatively self-contained so “civilians” like us don’t have to do extensive research to crack the show’s code. The Mighty Nein succeeds in that regard, for the most part, though there were times during the first episode where we were scratching our heads about who was who and what was what.

It takes until Episode 4 of "The Mighty Nein" for all the characters to finally meet, and it's a delight to watch them bounce off each other. As the season continued, I found it best to approach the overarching story about retrieving a magical entity known as the Beacon as nothing more than a Hitchcockian MacGuffin; an excuse to keep these characters together as the story itself is not particularly engaging when taken at face value.

MUST Watch, Seriously!.. Everyone I know that has watched has been blown away and can not wait to see more! This especially includes those that do not normally watch animation, nor those that know Critical role, or any of the Mighty Nein origin story. Thank you to ALL that were involved in this show as it is truly amazing... I can not wait to see more! I never write reviews, yet for this... I strongly suggest you all watch this, and then rewatch as there are so many minor details you will see in a second watch. Even the most minor details in the background is amazing and every character story is beyond riviting and exciting! Seriously, a MUST WATCH! Thank you Critical role team and all involved in making this amazing story!

Solid, but the world and magic systems are less intuitive and the characters less charming and funny. It take a few episodes to really grasp the scope of the story.

Woke mess full of ideologies more than story. Every other character is gay as if it's some sort of character development or makes us empathize more. Every other girl has the gay girl haircut. No over arching goals or obstacles. No stakes. Just boring quips and disjointed story.
