At first, it just seemed pointless. It really did get better as it went along! I just appreciated the idea of being in on the action. It wasn't a game, of course. I felt it had just enough of a small amount to be considered a movie. I really did find myself liking these characters.
You really did put good character development into them. The music is great! I'm glad to get into this series. The designs are nice and different. It's just a good cartoon.
