    Stevenson honors the basic plot layout and the birthday-cake radiance of old-school She-Ra. But the original cast of characters has been casually diversified, and newly illustrated to boldly suggest human beings have all shapes and sizes.

    In rebooting the beloved series, Stevenson has created something special, a cartoon that both honors and improves on the original by amplifying its characters’ feelings, and emits equal parts electricity, joy, and warmth. Like its titular hero, She-Ra is so full of heart that it’s easy to recognize its humanity, even with all the super-powered hijinks going on.

    A great show with great characters. Please ignore the 40yo dudes that hates this shows without watching it just because they hate women.

    The controversy of the tomboy nature of the lead character or the raging at the shows political correctness shows a tone-deafness to the original series, as well as the need for such shows in this day and age.    … Full Review »

The misogynist backlash theIgnore the reactionary "reviews" if you want to experience what is on the path to becoming this generation's ATLA. The misogynist backlash the She-Ra reboot has faced is speaks to the strength of its cast. The characters in She-Ra aren't the damsel in distress Lois Lane type who will always be subordinate to the male protagonist, the hypersexualized action girl Bayonetta type, or the stoic badass Kara Starbuck type that emulate a regressive form of masculinity. She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is full of characters that defy stereotypes and the show is better for it.

    Fans of ATLA, Voltron, and The Dragon Prince will find a lot to love about She-Ra. If I had any complaints it would that the story moves a little too fast in the first few episodes but everything they set up is only going to make season 2 even more amazing.    … Full Review »
