My family really wanted to love this show, because we love the Wingfeather Saga. Unfortunately, the animation has left much to be desired. When the first trailer was released I assumed that the animation must still be in development, rather than the final product. The motion is so choppy that it is distracting. The images are so pixelated that it has the feel of a low quality video game. Sometimes portions of the imagery appear to still be rendering like parts of a video game map that are loading during gameplay. This is incredibly frustrating, because much of the imagery is quite beautiful apart from the detracting qualities that I have described.
Since this is a story taken from a children's book and is marketed towards children I must stress that these aren't just my observations. My children all voiced the same complaints and felt the same disappointment and frustration. If we didn't love the Wingfeather Saga so much we wouldn't spend any more time watching new episodes. For the time being, we're holding out hope that the creators will make significant improvements to the animation. This great story deserves the effort it would require to address these problems.
