I was looking into this cartoon due to the fact it was kind of lost for a couple of years and nobody knew of it's existence. Especially after how the first movie went, I was curious but not expecting anything special. And that's exactly how it was.
Daria and Rolo are hardly active in the story, the pigs are essentially the main characters just doing mundane and kinda boring adventures in the Pig Kingdom. The pacing feels so slow and the problems feel so mind-numbingly simple to solve but drag it on for so long.
Daria's abusive foster parents are kind of redeemed for no reason? No explanation on what happened to Laird, Hildegard, or Helsa.
The animals can randomly talk now, at least it's far less grating than the stock pig sounds in the movie. The animation is decent but has a lot of weird animation glitching, uncolored spots, and wonky anatomy. The music is so bad, at least the first movie had the ability to make the music sound pleasant on the ears sometimes but here it's an earache (especially the opening with Sebastian screeching the lyrics.)
If you either are a mega-fan of the movie or are curious about it, then check it out. But anyone else, this is not a show I feel kids would be actively interested in. Unless you want it to be a snooze-fest, you might as well skip it.
