Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 02/23/2022
Like a boozy, bad-taste session of Dungeons & Dragons, this gory animated series gives high fantasy a mildly amusing touch of the lowbrow. Go to Full Review
Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News 02/09/2022
3.5/4
The screenplay is stuffed with laugh-out-loud moments and the animation is often quite stunning. Go to Full Review
Valerie Anne Autostraddle 01/31/2022
To me it's the perfect combination of D&D and animated high fantasy and I can't wait to see what other little aspects of the game flavor and guide the story. Go to Full Review

More than fan service, Critical Role's The Legend of Vox Machina succeeds at storytelling. Go to Full Review
Nathaniel Muir AIPT 11/18/2022
The first three episodes show the action, fun, and creativity that has made Critical Role so popular. It will be interesting to see where the show goes from here. Go to Full Review
Adam Lock Ready Steady Cut 11/18/2022
The animation is clean and contemporary. It’s gory and unforgivingly rude. There are barrels full of comedy and some nifty action pieces too. Go to Full Review

J V @jarover 15h Among the most entertaining and worthwhile series I've ever watched. See more An V @Anuria Jan 1 After following their RPG game online, I was taken away by their ability to create a world, story and characters. So much even, that I truly got swept away, watching these voice actors playing a roleplaying game around a table for hours. I never thought that could be possible, but did they prove me wrong. And now, to see these characters and storylines in animation after all this time? It's absolutely perfect! More of this please! See more Oscar S. @EVILCORPSE999 Dec 27 With their freshman season, Critical Role stuns in amazing fashion. Bringing such a fun and great show, stemming from D&D gameplay is perhaps one of the best things to ever happen in animation. With an amazing story, and fantastic voice acting cast to support this series, Vox Machina soars. See more Mike D @ScreamingParrot Nov 24 It's a fun adventure that doesn't take itself too seriously. I like how each character had their time to shine in their backstory arcs and that trinkles of it keep showing up throughout the seasons. The story beats are blended together well. The show is more about interpersonal conflicts, working together to solve a problem, and enjoying an adventure together than having a super unique story. The people who whine about the story not being original are the same lame people who claim they walk out of movies because they already know where the plot is going, lmao See more bill w @scanlines Nov 4 This series is so clever and rich in characters I could hardly believe what i was seeing. As an animation fan this show takes the cake for surprises and intelligent writing... All the expected stuff in the genre but so well done I can't believe it did not get more press and fanfare out loud... See more Izzy M @Izzy6 Oct 2 Yay. I enjoy Pike and Grog. They are favorites characters . Grog is extremely hilarious. I can't wait for season 4 See more Read all reviews
