Billy whom is the serious level headed one. But I like how the brothers are handled both have a solid back and forth like in any buddy cop film. The only disappointment is that she never really becomes a permanent part of the team which isn't fair, let alone disappeared as the show went further, so that to me is a weak point of the show. One supporting character I like is Marian whom was the damsel in distress in the video game, I really like how they made her a strong female character that is actually useful in some points kinda like how she was handled in the "Neo Geo" one on one fighting video game where she became one of the fighting characters. Supporting characters and villains are solid and seem to each have distinctive specialties and personas which make them colorful though not entirely memorable. I do like how the characters are handled. The theme song is decent, enjoyable to listen to despite some of the lyrics coming off kinda chessy. The action is solid/decent, the martial arts chirography is good and I like the use of the vehicles, weapons and super powers. I even like how there was some sense of plot development in some places, though sadly this doesn't completely pay off most cartoons weren't taken seriously back then what are you going to do.

The story is solid, I like that they kept the simplistic plot from the game, however they added some things making the show a bit of a pulp fantasy kinda like the movie "Big Trouble in Little China" which I personally didn't mind since I like that movie. Background animation is solid but I like the character animation the most, each of the characters are designed memorably. The animation is solid, it's not the greatest animation I've ever saw but it's good enough in my book. It's true that this cartoon probably isn't going to be for everyone since it does take plenty of liberties which may or may not be agreeable but a lot of adaptations of works do, it's that fine line of being different and the same at the same time to stand on it's own. There's really not a whole lot I can say. The fact that there was a cartoon adaptation for this video game franchise, I was slightly sceptically about since cartoon adaptations for video game franchises have always been hit or miss with me, this one I personally thought was one of those hits, and one that crawled under the radar. It was also one of the factors that go me into martial arts and become a martial artist. The fact you can play martial artists to fight crime with martial arts skills and weapons to pick up along the way was awesome. Check it out, it doesn't take itself to seriously and its provides more fun than most.ĭouble Dragon is one of my favorite video game franchises, the first game (the arcade game) was one of the first video games I've played. For whatever reason I like Double Dragon more than the DC comics stuff like Batman.I do kinda dig the Superman shows though. I liked very much that it doesn't look at all like anime which I don't much care for. Basically its a 90s toon with a cool 80s vibe.

There is also a degree of character development unlike some toons. I also like the dragon that leads them to secret spots the boys need to get to. The parts with the masks didn't bother me at all, sorta a bonus actually. Of course Double Dragon was a great video game series. This show has something, kinda hard to define but its there. The bad guys, especially Shadow Master are very cool. The plots are nothing special but probably better than most. I liked the animation and the characters were drawn large. Unlike some of the other reviewers I saw plenty of martial arts in the shows I watched. I watched a couple of episodes on youtube and enjoyed them.
