DC Super Hero Girls Web Series Review


So then DC fans I really havn't talked about this show at all outside of the movies but I figured since the show is in it's fourth season and the TV series is due to premier in a few months it would make sense to do it now so here is my review of DC Superhero Girls.


The show basically follows the heroes and some villains in the DC world as they train at Super Hero High School. Each episode is roughly around three to five minuets long so you don't get alot of story driven episodes but since this is aimed at little kids I can forgive them for that but at the same time I do wish the episodes were a little longer.


The voice cast is full of DC voice veterans and there's a lot of them so i won't name every single cast member but in the cast we have Tara Strong , Grey Griffin , Hynden Walch , Greg Cipes , Josh Keaton and John DiMaggio. Like I said there's a lot of people in this show but out of the people i've mentioned I honestly cannot pick out just one standout performer since they are all good in the show and I hope that they are all brought over to the main TV series.

Now as you might have guessed by now the show does feature some changes to the characters designs and in truth I can see people especially older fans of these characters possibly not liking how these characters look but for a show that's aimed at little kids I think that designs work well and you can clearly tell which character is which.


Even tho this is a web show the animation is handled by Warner Bros. Animation but even with a big name like Warner Bros. backing it the animation still feels cheap and like it was done on a budget we do get some fairly nice looking CGI but that's really it I hope that for the series the animation gets a bit of an upgrade.

This series really doesn't do action scenes in it's episodes instead choosing to save them for when they do a movie or TV special. Instead the web series focuses more on the lessons that the hero and ultimately the viewer learns and for me while I can see little kids getting something out of it I can't really see any older fans who are checking the show out getting anything from it but i get it it's not meant for older fans but if you have the DC name you have to expect older fans to come and watch it. 


Like i've said several times during this review this show is aimed at little kids well to be more specific it's aimed at little girls but that's not say that little boys can't enjoy it and i'm ok with that since it goes give little girls someone in the DC world someone to look up to and it helps prove that superheroes aren't just for guys.


Overall if you have little kids or little nieces or nephews then there's no harm in showing them this cartoon and since this is something made for little kids there will not a rating since i cannot bring myself to rate it.
