Stitch! (2008–2015) User Reviews (11)

It's not as good as the American version of the show.

[Angels_Review · 5/10 · 13 April 2014]

Oh my god… they made another one? So this one is supposed to be after Lilo gets a boyfriend or something. Stitch, up to no good as always, jumps on his little flying car and starts to create mayhem. We have the same enemies, the same stupid sidekicks, and the same out of control main character as before, but with a different girl. They have the same storyline with Ichariba Chodei (Also known as Ohana) which is pretty much 'meet ones cuz forever'. It's pretty much a Japanese Lilo and Stitch… bla… Seriously, how do I talk about something that feels like it's from America in storyline, characters, and concept? The only thing they use is that they are in some alternate time line in order to bring a new girl and culture in. Well, there is one other thing… Stitch is collecting good deeds. I don't know about you but if the little creature is doing good things for selfish reasons, I don't think it works. Also, his goal is not really good so it messes things up. The show does base around Japanese demon mythology instead of aliens, but I don't really care for this. And that is coming from a girl who loves supernatural stuff. It just feels really forced because it's a 'find and capture' game with yokai instead of aliens now, although once in a while they get an alien or two. It's good if they had one or another, but not both! The ending also didn't have really a good closer as it left it open for the next season. How they made a second season out of this I have no idea.

The animation is pretty much standard series animation for a show that was created as a rehash of the original rehash of a movie. Yes, that's a lot of rehashing and it seriously feels old. The artwork is bland is what I'm trying to say. It just looks like they pulled this together in a short time although pretty clean as a computer created. Scenes are reused many times over. Disney signs are all over the place from items that Stitch puts back together to some references. It got so bad that the dub even made fun of it. It's just too much even for Disney. I found that the opening was changed rather badly between the sub and dub. The dub just used clips from the show in order to make a stupid opening just as how 4kids does most of the time.

The dub sounds like it was done by 4kids, seriously bad with a lot of off kid language. You can't understand Stitch at all, though he should be able to speak a little better after living with Lilo so long. And this doesn't make sense because half the time, stitch talks more then ever and others he acts like he doesn't speak English. Now they do get better later on but it ends up to late. In fact, I think they even changed the voices for the dubbed version comparing it to the English version. It has the same childhood lesions as the show before, but they feel forced at times. Even the jokes are rather forced making me feel bored. The music is really bland with nothing that really stands out. The Japanese dub is so much better, actually having half of Stitch's sounds actually being words. Seriously, most of the gibberish that he says in the dub is supposed to be complete sentences.

The only thing good about this was they brought Angel back.

Another one?

How could they have made another one? This one is therefore meant to happen after Lilo finds a lover or something like. As usual, Stitch gets up to no good when he hops on his small flying car and begins to cause havoc. With a different girl, we have the same antagonists, foolish sidekicks, and irrational main character as previously. They share the same plot, which is essentially "meet ones cuz forever," with Ichariba Chodei (also known as Ohana). It like a Japanese version of Lilo and Stitch, really.

Really, how do I discuss something whose concept, characters, and plot all seem to be from America? Their only means of introducing a new female and culture is by pretending to be in an alternate timeline. There's still one more thing, though. Stitch is gathering virtues. I don't know about you, but I don't think it works if the little creature is doing kindly out of self-interest. In addition, it complicates matters because his aim is not very good. Although I don't particularly like this, the show is based on Japanese demon folklore rather than aliens. And that from a girl who is fascinated by the paranormal.

The animation for a show that was made as a parody of a movie that was originally parodied is essentially normal series animation. Yes, it feels very dated and like a lot of repeating. I'm trying to suggest that the artwork is boring. Even though this was built using a computer, it appears as it was put together quickly. Scenes are frequently utilized again. Disney indicators can be found everywhere, from references to things that Stitch repairs. The dub started making fun of it because it got so awful. Even Disney can't handle it. Between the dub and the sub, I noticed that the opening had been drastically altered.

What have you done to my hero!?

[theendlessflight · 1/10 · 10 February 2012]

WHAT IS THIS!? After all the stitch I've seen, this is the stitch that brought me to my knees. (Not that before, there were some I didn't like, but this is bad.) What happened to the stitch that sliced the pineapple with a chainsaw? Or the Surfboard stitch? The spaceship fight? Now, it's good deeds, clean the town, taking care of a bird. A BIRD! Also, what happened to the villain? Gentu is a crybaby, he can't even fight common Humans and gets his ass kicked by children by making him dizzy! In the past, he destroyed Lilo's house. His master Hämsterviel is even worse, he has lost his villain touch. It's no longer entertaining when he walks in (when he first appeared, he was hilarious when he stood on books, he was ten times the villain he isn't now.) And why does Stitch want to become the "ruler of the world", all he ever wanted was a family and Lilo was more than satisfying. So Lilo spends all her time teaching him what 'ohana' is and then leaves him for a boy? Come on people, I almost cried when stitch was shutting down. (dying) Now when he battles Hamsterviel, I wish he would lose. Please, don't do any more of this abomination.

Adaptation of the original series to the schizoid Japanese culture

[jschiefer001 · 2/10 · 19 June 2013]

With the original Lilo & Stitch (Movies, The Series) your children learn for life, here your children learn to be quiet in front of the TV.

"Stitch!" or "Yuna and Stitch" is essential an anime copy of the original Disney series "Lilo and Stitch: The Series". The story is set on the fictional Japanese island of Ryukus instead of Hawaii, the little native Hawaiian girl Lilo is replaced by the Japanese anime teenager brat Yuna.

In the first (revolutionary) movie "Lilo and Stitch" Stitch – an alien genetic experiment with superpowers but looks similar to a koala bear – came to earth and into the little family the orphan Lilo and her big sister Nani. Stitch overcame his destructive nature and learned what family ("ohana") means. Sine then Lilo – who is a clever, quirky, and extremely warm-hearted girl – spend all her time and power to show Stitch what family really means. In the original series Stitch's only wish was a family ("ohana"), in the anime his wish is now "world domination". Lilo's passion in the original series was Hula dancing, Yuna seems to be a Karate fighter. While the Hula dancing lead to tons of hilarious moments and fused Lilo and Stitch together in a peaceful manner, the Karate stuff is just boring. Stitch could not speak fluent English in the original series – one fact that made him extremely cute and lovable. This is gone now too. The primary antagonist Dr. Hämsterviel was hilarious in the Disney series, now he is just pathetic. Angel was a lovable character, now she is just a bitch. The movies and the original series impressed with beautiful hand-drawn watercolor backgrounds, now we have standard anime CGI.

Do yourself and your loved ones a favour and watch the original movies ("Lilo and Stitch", "Lilo and Stitch 2", "Stitch! The Movie" and "Leroy and Stitch") as well as the original Disney series ("Lilo and Stitch: The series")! They are clever, innovative, funny, extremely heart- warming and NOT classic Disney junk. Your children will learn for life and grow as a character.

Stupidly awkward anime is stupidly awkward

[smartipantzis · 1/10 · 4 January 2014]

First of all, character designs don't match up. I have no idea about you guys but...whenever I see big cute (shojo) eyes or those wacky anime hairstyles. It just comes off as weird for me, same thing with the expressions. Do you know those "Sweat Drops" or the "Blank White Eyes" (Okay those two were from TV Tropes but you get the idea)

Mixing anime with the wonderful fluent animation of Disney is...ehhhh...not good. It just comes off as weird.

Let's compare this to something like...Kingdom Hearts. Which also had an "anime character with cartoons" The video games are very fluent. Sora moves fluently with the other characters throughout the game.

So why doesn't work here?

Anime sort of has a "limited animation" feel to it. Like only one thing moves throughout the entire scene. (mouth, arms, etc.) Just ONE thing. If you compare it to the first movie and sequel, you'll notice how fluent the movies were. (Video games are done with CG3D)

Also, the voice acting is WAY off. Lots of the characters BARELY sound like they're supposed to (when comparing to the original movies or the American TV series) You'll notice a significant difference.

and one more thing...Half the characters shouldn't be there. Sometimes it feels it feels like the cast belongs on Tokyo Mew Mew. (Don't get me started)as for the rest of it...all I can say is there is only so much cutesyness I can take...BLEGH...

I have no words to describe this

[JoseCarlosPereiraFan · 1/10 · 11 July 2019]

I don't know who had the idea of doing a Stitch anime but I definitely hate that person. What was he thinking? It is horrendous and takes away all the essence of the previous animation that was about the friendship of Stitch with Lilo, not with this new girl. In addition, we all learned that Ohana means family and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten. Stitch would never leave Lilo. I don't even know why Disney gave permission to anyone to do this. I'm just wondering why.

Omg

[kali_z · 17 October 2020]

BRO- I literally can't believe stitch cheated on lilo-

This is pointless.

[vessalalizadeh · 2/10 · 21 September 2021]

I didn't watch all the episodes of this show and I'll never do it. My advice is for Disney to release any time soon a sequel series to Leroy and Stitch (2006). Let's pretend that this show is not existing and let's stick forever the basic Disney series and the original tv show of Stitch and of course to wait for the actual sequel series which will take place immediately after the events of Leroy and Stitch (2006).

The problems:

1) Penny 2) Penny 3) not much screen time with Angel 4) how Angel introduced 5) Penny 6) Penny 7) Angel getting angry at Stitch when he does something rude 8) how Yuna and Angel's relationship began 9) Penny and her brothers 10) Penny 11) Penny 12) Penny 13) Ruining Angel's character What else?

Hilarious and entertaining show.

I feel like any opposition is from people who are obsessed with the original series. I like the movies but this is tremendously better, not remotely childish, the episodes are dynamic, funny, great characters, great comedy. The third season is the best one although it takes place in a different location and I love the blend between mythology and science fiction it creates introducing alien and yokai characters.

This is an awesome thing.

[colenp-47501 · 10/10 · 29 July 2021]

I can't believe stitch got his own anime I can't wait to watch it.

So good.

[xrrthkowithhinkla · 10/10 · 6 November 2022]

It's actually a very good series. But it's a pity that the storyline and content of the anime series is almost different from the previous Lilo and Stitch movie. Because season 3 There are pictures and lines that are different from the past 2 seasons. Plus, this photo event has Shin-ei animation Co., Ltd. Cooperated with Disney as well. Make the visual work look more comfortable than the past 2 seasons. Plus presenting the storytelling and content of this season. Well done! But the narrative of the content is a Japanese anime style that almost deviates from the main storyline from the original. Adding continuity to that content is only level 1 important, but it's not that bad. Because it has exciting content and is a very memorable page. Plus, it allows us to enjoy and get into the story that is quite special and new than before. Without being too monotonous but anime season This should be more fun. If stuffed with jokes for us to relieve stress and increase the relationship of the characters better. Sitting there, this season's anime, we give it a thumbs up. It can be played as an anime that has created a novelty for the Disney cartoon industry.
