With beautiful musical numbers, solid character development, and very deep storylines, Tangled The Series is a perfect continuation
26 August 2020
Back at 2010, Disney released Tangled, a movie about Rapunzel, after being in the tower for a long time since childhood, goes out with a thief named Flynn Rider in order to pursue the lanterns on her birthday. Her biological mother, Mother Gothel, however, intends to use Rapunzel's hair in order to retain her youth. It became a box office success and thus plans for a television series were made.

Originally spun off from Tangled: Before Ever After, the series continues the adventures of Rapunzel during her adjustments to the life of a princess while encountering a mysterious return of her 70 feet magical golden hair. Little did she know that mysteries surrounding the world of Corona lie ahead as she tries to uncover them along with Cassandra, Eugene, and many others.

Now that it's been nearly 6 months since the show ended, I'm not going to do any spoilers and give the show some praise. Not only is this one of the best animated Disney channel series, but it's a great continuation of the movie. I know there's many people out there that either love it or hate it, but as a person who loved the movie back at the early 2010s, I personally love this show.

Not only does it expand on the original film with very deep storylines, it provides some solid character development for not only for Rapunzel and Eugene, but every other character in the entire show notably Cassandra. In fact, the characters are both likeable and relatable with some engaging and heartfelt voice work from Mandy Moore, Zachary Levi, Eden Espinosa and everyone else including Julie Bowen, Clancy Brown, and Jeremy Jordan. The pacing for every episode so far has been solid as it provides some atmosphere.

The animation is also another great aspect. The character designs of Rapunzel Eugene, Maximus, and Pascal along with the other characters from the movie are good while the new character designs are also good. Not to mention that the visuals are perfectly colored especially the look of Corona.

And last but not least the music. Alan Menken, who composed the music and songs for the movie, returns for the show and provides some great new songs with Kevin Kliesch notably "Wind in My Hair" in the opening intro. Also, the music score is haunting uplifting, and poignant.

Overall, Tangled: The Series is a great show. To those who haven't seen the show yet, check out the movie first.
