new star war maul shadow lord, as per usual with these animated shows the plot and writing is all over the place but it's quite amazingly rendered. i'm talking very nearly Arcane art direction and quality. the team(s?) that do these shows have clearly gotten really really good at this animation style.
i wouldn't actually recommend it, Maul's character doesn't work well without a comedic foil, he's way too edgy. the heaps of action setpieces are indulgent and overwrought, the stakes are hard to appreciate when the important characters die in other media.
super pretty to look at though
haha my first thought on watching was "This art style has come a long way since early clone wars"
I haven't finished but god I hope every cop dies. They're all so goddamn annoying
