    A very good series, I did not expect it to have that violence for adults, the plot is good, it ends much better than other series.

    Really not bad!
    I think this project deal peoples who love this game universe, many easter eggs, some good action scene, have a some fine story points, yep it's not 1010, but if you want some good tv-series for your evening and you love dota 2 lore, this for you.

    Amazing animation with some adults themes (violence and sex). The voice actiong is really good and seems to have a heavy lore.

    Show is quite average. Pacing feels too fast, and world building feels like it could use more work, and action shots seem strange. It felt like it escalated too quickly and could have done with a slower pace. Wouldn't mind watching a 2nd season, wouldn't care if it got cancelled though.

    The story is really boring and all over the place. None of the characters are very likeable and the main character literally is a rip off of guts from berserk, even though in DOTA the same character looks nothing like Guts.

    Terrible voice acting, especially if you manage to click the English dub. I don't know where they found these guys but it was probably from the 1990's dragon ball Z    The story is really boring and all over the place.

    I can't believe I even made it through this series.    … Expand

    There should be a requirement that if a story is below a certain threshold of competence, the animation should have to be at least watchable. DOTA: Dragon's Blood is that rare abomination in which the story and art seem to be competing for last place. Execrable is a strong word; it's also a bit too generous.

    It's kind of good. Not a visual beauty, and not a lore masterpiece either, but it tells an interesting story about a world based on DotA.

    the artists who drew the avatar are working on the series, it was very nice to see a familiar drawing, it was done well for the first book as a way to show viewers what is planned in the series, I really hope for even more positive reviews and the continuation of sponsoring the project so that he creates something similar and develops, I think the series Will come to those who watched thethe artists who drew the avatar are working on the series, it was very nice to see a familiar drawing, it was done well for the first book as a way to show viewers what is planned in the series, I really hope for even more positive reviews and the continuation of sponsoring the project so that he creates something similar and develops, I think the series Will come to those who watched the avatar Aang and the avatar of the legend of Korea, I do not know how the fans of Dota 2 are, not a fan of Dota, but the series is done well.… Expand

    Though DOTA: Dragon’s Blood features some interesting elements here and there, overall it attempts to weave too many plot elements into one episode, which will undoubtedly become an issue as the series wears on. It’s also somehow less interesting than playing the game.

    At its best, Dragon’s Blood lives up to that [opening] shot, concocting vibrant visuals that evoke the game’s rich history, but, for the most part, the show loses itself in inaccessible esoterica. Like war, exile, and scaly metamorphosis, it’s all quite messy.
