gene tartakovsky style with draw character have me a little apprehensive from the outset to watch the series he have direct while the character on the surface have the immediate appearance of not look very rough edge and more appropriate for a kid show . upon finally give in and watch the series and it become all the more apparent that this an assumption that not totally true . the style actually have a little more than a bit to owe a part of a tradition in the small but captivate realm of star war animation ( most specifically from the boba fett segment from the much malign star war holiday special ) and and so clone war can be see a a kind of logical continuation of back story get a good hit of invention and visual surprise . here be submerge into the detail of the clone war and that time allude to in the original trilogy and basically be the filler between episode 2 and 3. characteristic remain pretty similar ( anakin arrogance and obi wan total control and lack of ego and count dookoo duplicitous nature and yoda total wisdom and and and elaborate on and mace windu total bad as appeal ) and but what change slightly be that the use of animation which be already bountiful in the prequels a most of what usually around the actor to one degree or another be put to a potential that make thing move even faster and allow for more imagination to flourish . one can not help but start laughing at time with how it almost too hyperactive and like a big battle scene where mace windu face off against an entire army of destroyer . there be a feeling that thing be all too closely align with cartoon network animation and which isn not a detraction per say as much a it be something that have to be take with a grain of salt . this isn not heavy metal be deal with here . at the same time and the battle and in space with the many and many and many ship and and the awesomely dynamic light saber duel and get an extra boost from their be no limit to what can be do with the character and master of the light and dark side of the force and face off in the height of jedi folklore ( we even see what happen during a battle in rain ) . there even a creative tinge of anime maybe more than a tinge sometimes depend on the movement of a sequence in the proceeding . history and lineage and albeit par for the course in please the geek with star war and be also pay good attention to and create some cool new character ( a dastard apprentice of the sith a one of anakin fiercest foe also make a mark of character development ) and and some recognizable one ( general grievous story be a little amusing and also even more dangerous than see in the third film ) . so and how do it play out . it may depend on what the attitude be towards the animation and but if one get into it long enough and it brief appeal a a short lived series can be appreciate even by casual fan of the franchise . it fun and sometimes thrilling and and the work that do call for good thing to come in the animated sw world .
