The Legend Of Lucky Pie Episode 2 "The Zodiac Maze" (With English Subtitles)

Share Collapse

This is an American style cartoon. When the first episode released on Youtube, many friends said it is some similar to Adventure Time. Adventure Time is a great cartoon, and we are also the fans of it. But they are very different. If we have the chance to continue creating this series, we promise that you can find out our marvelous things. We grew up in China, we are familiar with eastern philosophy. We also love the American style art, and we had watched countless Hollywood films and animations in our life. We really hope to make a American style cartoon series which you can find some eastern wisdom in it.
We are a small team just with two people, so it took us half a year to make one episode. If you also like it, please help us to spread it. Let’s find more energy to continue.

Great work on this with some funny moments and well done visual gags as well. Good voice acting and character designs and some very nice background work.

It's rather unfair saying that you're a copy or ripoff of another show. Through some parallels in that it has a similar archetypes of characters and being in a fantasy based setting.That inexperienced viewer would make the crass comparison. Which is silly because then most sitcom or drama shows would be ripoffs of previous shows. However the animation is in a simple style but diverse appearance with art direction combined with musical choice give it an unique feeling unlike what I would normally see.

Nonetheless, I'm impressed by the length and quality. Interested what you might do in future, even through the story or characters didn't grab my interest. There is potential in this adventure fantasy of week. Best of luck with your future endeavors.

Wow, you grow really fast in popularity! Good job and keep up the good work! Do not listen to the people who say this is a copy of Adventure Time. This series is different and great!

Thank you for understanding!

The animation is top tier quality but this show lacks any sense of originality. It's as if you took a handful of popular american shows, mashed them all together with an adventure time theme then tried to label them as your own creation. Again, the animation is amazing but I refuse to give a star to a team who is blatantly stealing ideas from other hard working teams.

Ugh, this. I'm pretty disappointed by this.

Before I get to the actual review I just want to say how utterly disappointed I am in this team. The flagrant disregard for the creative process is a little disgusting. You all have potential to create something new and unique but, instead you half rip-off a show by copying another shows animation style and its overarching story board. Please for the love of animation, try to actually make something new instead of stagnating yourselves this way by using your talents to simply copy paste something.

Now to the review.

Overall the quality of this animation is pretty top notch can't complain much other than the fact that its a complete rip-off. I suggest adding some length to each episode. The length of this made everything seem rushed and a tad confusing. Some pointers into the animation. The slow motion scenes should have a few more frames added into them. They were choppy and it makes it come off as lazy and sloppy. Some of the reactions of the characters come off as out of place or random. I think the addition of a sound track to the show could help with setting the mood but, please at least make that original.

In final, I think the show has potential but, due to the nature of it being a rip-off it may not be able to truly get its feet off the ground. Over all it deserves 2.5/5 stars for quality but, loses half for lack of originality.
