>>125211563The main issue is that at the same time this show was airing Disney was also airing Wander, Motorcity and Tron. Those are FAR better shows from the same company alone, not counting what CN or others were doing.
This show gets artificially propped up because it was mass advertised and the "mystery" headcanons people came up were interesting.
The truth is anyone who says this show was an all time great is not an animation fan or critical thinker, rather a consumer who only believes it's good because Disney mass advertised it to them. Same people watch SV and TOH now and think those are good. This show is the same quality as those
