Max G @RT54147869 Mar 27 I think that Ni Hao, Kai-Lan is one of the most memorable classic of Nickelodeon Animation Studios yet. It has this straight hand drawn feeling to it that made it feel so 90s like for a kids show. But the downside of it is the characters themselves are a bit overrated for some people, but what can I say, the characters are absolutely adorable and funny to be loved. And the songs are really wholesome and simple to enjoy. Overall Nickelodeons Ni Hao, Kai-Lan is a worth watching. See more Read all reviews
