This show had no right to be as good as it was

That's literally Kylo Ren though. He was even an evil and angry virgin just like Ren is.

BAFFLING

He had more development than Ren and he was interesting because of how driven he was to learn everything about magic and was willing to sacrifice anything to get stronger. There was one episode where it was mentioned that in his quest for power, he transformed his father-figure and sorcerer mentor into a pathetic zombie-like creature to absorb all of his magical abilities. He kept the zombie in his palace and still seemed to regard him kindly. The gauntlet that gave him power also caused him great physical pain and his arm underneath was withered to a skeletal arm. There was also an episode where it was mentioned that even though he was very young, he was slowly dying and would need to constantly switch bodies because the magic he used took such a heavy physical toll on him.

Season one wasn't really a standalone season but was a handful of episodes chosen to air on Disney Channel as a preview.

That's because it was aired on two different channels, and they made a different set for both channels
Holy shit! this show had at least four new episodes coming out per week for a certain time
Really does put some perspective on the current state of things, and how the entertainment industry actually is in a decline

MLP is like Sonic, easy to draw, modern popular characters.

Wasn’t it going to be revealed at some point that this guy was actually Aladdin’s twin brother or something?

Sucks the Hercules show we got "high school antics" as opposed to something like this what with maybe Herc and friends going on adventures with reformed Pain and Panic getting their own rogues gallery.

At least Legend of Tarzan was somewhat more in feel to Aladdin, though unlike this show, most of LOT's stuff was actually taken from the books.

The Disney Afternoon as a whole was pure kino.

That's not a high number

Yes, it was an idea they were tossing around for Aladdin 3, but they figured a lot of people watching it wouldn't be familiar with the show and dropped it.

Needed more episodes of her turning into stuff.

This. Pretty much every cartoon adaptation was good, even Little Mermaid's was entertaining with Tim Curry as that manta ray villain.

This guy taught me that glass was made out of sand.

I learned that on a field trip to Jamestown.

>his arm underneath was withered to a skeletal arm
Also one time his grandparents got stuck in an elevator, and they were in there so long they became skeletal people.

i misread that as jonestown and was like my user you had a pretty based school

This had some surprising historical accuracy.
For example. There was an episode where the sultan of Agrebah meets with a bunch of other sultans and they all just sit together and spout off truisms and little catchy one-line wisdoms.

Evidently, that was a thing they actually did in history. Who knew?

Both would get it.

I kind of love it when Disney slips in things like that.

And managed to do it in the same sentence as introducing villains with extremely punny Foreign names like the necromancer 'Ayim Aghul'.

It's especially funny since 'ghoul' is etymologically arabic so the wordplay kind of works there too.

Mechanicles was pretty awesome.

based on his personality and how greeks generally were, he probably was exiled due to being an insufferable ass.

My favorite is when Jasmine turned into a whipping badass evil strong womyn

The nostalgia critic said it was bad, so it can't be good.

>not loving Disney's World's Finest.

Aside from the red hair he looks convincingly like an average Middle Eastern woman.

Wait what?

Hades somehow escapes that pit of eternal suffering and comes up with a new crazy plot to try to kill Hercules/take over Olympus/rule the cosmos every episode. Herc, Meg, Phil and Pegasus go on wacky adventures to stop him.

Why did they make a high school show exactly?

The high school setting didn't make sense canon wise, since Hades isn't even aware that Herc is alive until Herc meets Meg as an adult.

I just view the Hercules series the same way I view other cartoons that are based on movies, but don't fit the continuity, like Beetlejuice.

bizarre ass choice for a spinoff with an even more bizarre setting

sounds like a very execs demand sort of thing

The original plan was to have a movie going off the series and reveal Aladdin and Mozenrath are brothers.

wasn't there a female genie at some point? I forgot how she looked like though

How come this was never released on dvd?

Bet the kids never got the joke behind that.

I used to watch Nick at Nite as a kid and I don't think I picked up on that.

Most Disney cartoons were utter trash but normies still drool their nostalgia and say it was the best.

I got so beaten down by the flash animations of the past 20 years that this looks much more fluid then I remember.

They actually address this in the show. There's this water that causes you to lose your memory and Herc, Meg and Hades (the former two actually do meet before they're adults) all get drenched in it causing them to lose their memories. Doesn't really explain where Icarus and Cassandra went to when Herc grew up but that's not really important.

I'm really impressed that this show, despite being a kids' show, managed to do such a good job depicting the "mortals aren't careful with their requests and the gods fuck them over as a result" storyline that's so central to Greek mythology.

That aphrodite boob juggle oh my.

I love how 'animated' the disney afternoon era cartoons looked. Sure they overworked their Chinese/Korean/NK animators in a modern form of slavery, but you can't sneeze at the results.

If they follow the original mythos, they both died, or in Cassandra's case: ignored, forgotten, raped then murdered.

Goof Troop and it's two movies were also great. Shame that the 00's cartoons, while good in their own right, just aren't as remembered as the Disney afternoon/90's ones.

Attached: 1507832925794.jpg (1083x633, 706K)

What would you consider 00s Disney cartoons that don't get recognition? Goof Troop is a 90s era show and the only form that doesn't get remembered finally is the 2nd one because it was too much "EXTREME SPORTS BROOOOO" to be taken very seriously.

Allow me to correct my self, few of the 00's shows are remember by the general audience, but others fell to the wayside. Proud Family and Kim Possible are the only ones they talk about as if it was yesterday but Buzz Lightyear and Dave the Barbarian are forgotten (the Buzz one is weird since it's tied to a popular franchise).

That's nothing. The Aladdin cartoon debuted in the era where there was no internet for the public. So that hurt it. And as far as examples from around that time that made a MAJOR splash like Renamon from Digimon Tamers. Renamon comes from the famous Anime Wave in the USA. Translation Digimon Tamers comes from the time of the phenomenon known as Pokemon so that helped Renamon leave a MAJOR impression to the point of getting not only a lot of quality art, but also she CONTINUES to get quality porn even to this day (right down to people creating modelers to make models of Renamon for SFM). It also helped that Pokemon and Digimon had a rivalry at the time which also got Digimon more attention as well.

Not every anthro female leaves that kind of impact on young impressionable minds. The only other one I can remember is Krystal from Star Fox who really wrecked gamers. Most recently it's Judy Hopps who undeservedly left an impact (during an era where the internet is something you basically need to literally live). And that's about it.

I FUCKING KNEW IT.

As a kid I always looked at the two and thought "They look waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too similar. Are they related or something?"

She has a chunk of giantess art.....most of it is bad.

This episode really had a hell of an ending, Hercules learns the politically correct lesson about being a good respectful young man and letting women be themselves have their own personalities. What does Galatea do the INSTANT she becomes an independent person? She rejects Hercules and goes to get fucked by that feral human thug guy.

And then at the end the old man who Hercules tried to copy openly tells Hercules that his woman was exactly like Galatea, however because he's already old and out of his prime he doesn't care that his woman is artificial and obsessively crazy about him. And he rides off into the sunset laughing at his happy ending.

Dammit, Herc!

I mean, think of it this way. With your strength, you need someone made of literal clay like her who can take such abuse.

Most of the best stuff actually came from Disney Animation-Australia, not one of the Oriental studios.

Didn't Mozenrath's VA basically commit suicide via drug overdose and no one could find him at the time, which is why Aladdin and the King of Thieves had to omit the whole Mozenrath subplot?

he died in 2003

kinda look like Kylo Ren

I remember him as a whiny ass hole too

You're mixing a few things up. The Disney people wanted to use Mozenrath in King of Thieves, but they couldn't get in touch with his VA, Jonathan Brandis, in time for pre production, so they cut Mozenrath from the story. Brandis then later died from an OD in 2003.

Buzz gets a lot of attention on Yea Forums however it usually derails(and rightfully so) into an alien waifu thread.

That's why I said general audience. People talk about the 80's/90's shows because of nostalgia and the 10's shows because how recent they are.

And she kept the outfit and whip. Rawr

>Doesn't really explain where Icarus and Cassandra went to when Herc grew up but that's not really important.
I remember there was a clip show set after the movie that explained that, but the exact details escape me.

Nah, Icarus's whole thing was that he survived flying too close to the sun. That's why he looked permanently scorched and the gods kept recognizing him as "that kid Apollo told me about."

>How come this was never released on dvd?
Because they're stupid with the various Disney Afternoon cartoons.

It's still puzzling that Goof Troop was remastered via Amazon and other streaming services.

Perhaps Aladdin and other shows will be remastered and offered via Disney+ in due time?

>but they couldn't get in touch with his VA, Jonathan Brandis, in time for pre production, so they cut Mozenrath from the story. Brandis then later died from an OD in 2003.

It's quite tragic really... Makes you wonder how much effort was put into trying to contact him.

He also didn't OD, he hung himself due to depression related to his declining career. Wonder if things would've been different had they been able to contact him and Mozenrath was a part of the third film.

>At 11:40 p.m. on November 11, 2003, Brandis hanged himself in the hallway of his Los Angeles apartment building. His body was discovered and paramedics were called to transport the actor to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.[12] Brandis died there at 2:44 p.m. on November 12 from injuries he sustained during the hanging.[12][13][14] He was 27 years old.

>Brandis did not leave a suicide note. After his death, friends reported that he was depressed about his waning career, which had continued to decline in the final years of his life. He was also reportedly disappointed when his appearance in the 2002 war drama Hart's War, a role he had hoped would revive his career, was significantly reduced in the film's final cut. Brandis had begun drinking heavily and had said that he intended to kill himself

She was drawn so off-model that episode, but in a good way. Looked less like a cat, and more like a black woman with cat-like features.

Now compare the above pic to how she looked normally in an episode.

Also he died.

Thanks for proving you didn’t even watched the show.

He was also in negotiations to play Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars prequels at one point, but then they decided to go with Hayden Christensen instead.

Can someone tell me who was in charge of the animation of this episode? That looks fluid af

I skimmed through her screencaps one day and she actually has 4 models, I guess it was different Korean studios

Buzz Lightyear of Star Command was so damn good. Zurg was godlike, and I miss XR

They had a bunch of different ideas for the character that they never followed though on.
At one point, they were planning to make him related to Jafar, but they scrapped that.

>this 90’s animation for a spin off show is better animation than most shows today

This was absolutely not typical for the series

>This show had no right to be as good as it was

Considering the movie it's based from, it should have been a lot better.

All shows from the 90's had better animation than today.

The only exception I can think of is crap like Three Friends and Jerry, or whatever it's called. That sucks so bad it could easily pass for a modern cartoon.

This. It's so much more fluid that it just sticks out in the mind more, Hercules had an episode that had a big celebrity VA and its animation was nuts because of it IIRC.

I agree.

To be fair that was probably the best animated episode of the entire series.

>Can someone tell me who was in charge of the animation of this episode? That looks fluid af

Walt Disney Animation (Australia). They did all the best-looking episodes of Disney Afternoon shows. Look at their episodes of Goof Troop; they're amazing.
