adonis98-743-186503 If any of you remember IMucha Lucha! from back in the day 'El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera' is kind of similar as well in my opinion. It's packed with lots of humor and adventure but also action overall.
alexramirez-174-77071 After hearing a fact that the creator of 'The Book Of Life' also produced this particular show, i decided to go on it's web-page on Nicktoons.com to see what lies in there for me. When i saw some episodes, never i thought that it would've blown me away.To start off on my review, ill start with the most important element of any cartoon; The Story. It tells the life of a 13-year old boy named Manny Rivera, A young super-hero who is the son of a hero known as White Pantera, but unfortunately the son of a villain known as Puma Loco. Due to this, Manny Rivera's superhero alter-ego has to choose a side: Good or Evil. What makes the writing good is just how complex the Manny himself is (which I'll get into later) and how creative the writing can be with the premise of each episode. The only catch is that sometimes the story structure can get messed up and can be left with a few plot holes here and there, but that doesn't hold it back from being so well-written.Now the Animation. They weren't kidding when they said this came from the creator of 'The Book Of Life'! This is possibly some of the most creative animation to come out of Nicklodeon! The backgrounds and setting are set in a Dia de Los Muertos theme and they look amazing and it can get really colorful at times. Same applies to the character design and animation. Not to mention that it can get pretty fast at times and it's not so sudden like in other Nick cartoons.The Characters are just right down likable. El Tigre/Manny, like i said before, is such a complex character with him having a hard choice to be Good or Evil. This can make him one of the most Likable Nick protagonists of all time. Manny's Best Friend/ Possible Love Interest, Firda is one of the funniest female kid characters nickelodeon has written. Plus i like that they don't make her so focused on her comedic/tomboy side to the point she becomes annoying, they keep her funny yet likable at the same time. Even White Pandara and Puma Loco are funny and likable. Same with the main villains (Santana, Black Cuervo, El Oso)Why don't people talk about this as often as Spongebob and TMNT? Pepole, go to the web-page of this show on Nicktoons' website and go see the episodes of them and have a good time in Maricle City!
Mikeltje . El Tigre must have been pulled because it would have overtaken spongebob in popularity as it is witty and has a lot of funny (well timed) jokes and fun stuff going on.I found myself having the same feelings about stuff they creators of the show have (yes i do have a fetish to pop every bubble in bubblewrapping).This is one of those shows that got pulled because it was way to good and modern, American's do not like funny humor.. come to think of it... same with Germans.Short: Watch it, i'm 23 i enjoy the shows a lot way more than my younger brother (8 years) because i've got more life experience which you need to understand most of the jokes.
mirosuionitsaki2 EL TIGRE: THE ADVENTURES OF MANNY RIVERA is a cartoon show aired on Nickelodeon about a Hispanic boy who has powers similar to a strong cat. One thing I do like about this show is that he doesn't keep his identity a secret, which can cause him to be popular instead of having people think he's dull and never there for the excitement.I do have a slight interest of this show. I just don't like American cartoons about Spanish people. It seems educational when the Nickelodeon Animation Studios aren't trying to be educational.I do like one episode though. The Party Monsters one. I recorded it as a test with my digital camera, and I had to watch it. It seemed okay how the nerds ended up being popular because they could turn their nerdiness into saving the people that bullied them and also themselves. That seemed really nice.I recommend this show for ages 4 through 11.
