Okay so I finished Maya and the Three and heres like what I thought of it (this is all just opinion based fyi . I am not a professional show review person. This is just what I thought abt it. Thx ✌🏽):
((also spoilers if u haven’t watched it lol))
IT WAS AMAZING!!!!
like hdbdineisjwnsknw IT WAS SOO GOoOoOoD!!!
There were some many similarities to this show and The Book of Life!!!! Well, more like how they’re in the same universe canonically. Also!!!! There are some lines that I remember being in both Book of Life and this show, like “son of a leopard!“ and when Zatz died when he was holding up the snakes head, he looked at Maya and “I love you Maya”, like in the exact same was Manolo “died” when he saved Maria and his friends/family. Like 👏👏👏👏 sooooo many parallels i could list lol.
Also!!!! The character designs!!!!! Personally my fav design was Chimis:
Mayas design was a little weird to me since her head was like GIANT (or maybe she has a regular head and i have a smol head idk):
I also really liked Ricos eyes since they looked really cartoonish and cute:
Picchu my beloved ❤️😭😭 :
ALSO ZATZ WAS KINDA HOT NGL:
Like daumm 👀👀👀👀 Diego Luna be voice actin all the hot animated characters (ty Diego Lunaaaaa❤️❤️)
(also thx @sereena1996 for making these gifs!)
Also, this show is like for 10 y/o kids and im like. A teenager. So if ur gonna watch it there’s obviously going to be cringey moments since this show is like for kids.
Also!!!!!!!!!!! The ending lowkey made me cry a bit. So now im headcanning that when the Tecca start celebrating Mayas birthday as a holiday, and every year she and Zatz come down from the sky to like. Catch up on things and yknow. Hang out and stuff.
Also Maya and the Three au where the exact same thing happens in the show but all the characters that i like get revived and everyone is happy ;-; and like get to b kids cause technically
Like i thought the director was gonna pull a “ha ha! You thought they died, but they didn’t! They live!” whenever a character like Acat died. But. Not until the ending when everyone like visited again. Canonically, Maya and the Three were mostly in their mid-to late teens, so in my au, they all just do teenager stuff. Like, since Zatz can fly around and stuff, Maya and the gang go on a high pillar so Maya can jump off it to see if she can float. She doesn’t but Zatz flies her around for a bit. Also!!!! Zatz could’ve been good friends with Rico, like Rico giving good and/or badish relationship advice to him. Or Zatz being besties w/ Chimi and doing each others hair, like Zatz having Chimis hairstyle and Chimi having Zatz hairstyle. Or like Maya and the Three shorts where they go on quests and have quirky shenanigans!!! I want that!!!
Needless to say, this was an amazing show and I recommend watching it!!!!
TL;DR: @mexopolis your show was great my guy!!!! I can’t wait to see what other projects you have in store!!!!!
Finished maya and the three a few days ago. I remember hating Zatz when my friend introduced the show to me and said this while watching the earlier episodes...
