* As noted, I honestly say that I can judge this show only from my memory. I watched it some 8 years ago when I was 14 on a badly dubbed Serbian tv channel but I can still remember the heroes, the villains, the damsels in distress, and the visceral war surrounding it all.
* The show has some similarities with Michael Mann's version of the story but the cartoon is a giant in comparison, with 26 episodes of constant western galore. The director and writers are true western fans and it is shown in every sweeping shot of an action scene. They are not scared to show plenty of violence and blood as well as people dying. This brings me to the most important asset, the characters. Every character is a stereotype to the point that some of them are plain caricatures and as previously mentioned the Serbian dub really doesn't help. I think the same about the English dub as well. The art of the show is trying to look somewhat like Disney's Pocahontas but it comes of "plasticy" and very low detail in the backgrounds. Still, the very simplistic art helps the animation as the humans here move very lively, especially in action scenes. The female characters sometimes look like barbie dolls (when motionless) as well as act like them until much later on.
* But all of these bad things are outweighed by the excitement and many fun and tense action scenes that never feel too forced. Characters although not that good can be a lot of fun. Kids above 8 can and should watch this. The setting and designs seem authentic. The show is never dull and as a kid, I would give it an 8-9, now that I see its many weaknesses even in sound production which I forgot to mention I can only support it in what it pulled off. A very epic and exciting story with good closure.
P. S. The intro song is great and very victorious.
