“Iwájú” is an original animated series set in a futuristic Lagos, Nigeria. The exciting coming-of-age story follows Tola, a young girl from the wealthy island, and her best friend, Kole, a self-taught tech expert, as they discover the secrets and dangers hidden in their different worlds. Kugali filmmakers-including director Olufikayo Ziki Adeola, production designer Hamid Ibrahim and cultural consultant Toluwalakin Olowofoyeku-take viewers on a unique journey into the world of “Iwájú,” bursting with unique visual elements and technological advancements inspired by the spirit of Lagos. The series is produced by Disney Animation’s Christina Chen with a screenplay by Adeola and Halima Hudson. “Iwájú” features the voices of Simisola Gbadamosi, Dayo Okeniyi, Femi Branch, Siji Soetan and Weruche Opia.

This series is really, really good! Very well developed and fleshed-out. I'm enjoying it. The messaging is more nuanced than many of the heavy-handed social messaging content being released these days. I love how each episode shifts focus on a different character while keeping the same perspective. Definitely worth the watch.

Just finished watching the series and it is amazing!!!! The animation, the story, the authenticity. I love that it is also sci-fi. Definitely refreshing and incredible storytelling. I’m impressed and I am not easily impressed. I must go to Lagos after watching.

When I was a child, I saw animation series that represented only one race, and as a person of color, animation/cartoons seemed to be predominantly white, with characters speaking in American accents. Now, I'm thrilled to see animation series featuring characters of various races and accents, like this one set in Nigeria. Kudos to Disney for becoming more inclusive.

The only suggestion I would make is that the English subtitles would translate the non-English dialogue into English. There was much of the dialogue I did not understand. This did not really diminish my ability to follow the story or enjoy it (as context filled in most of the blanks), but I would have appreciated having the subtitles that I could read in my language.

This is a children’s show, which in and of itself isn’t bad, but I don’t know why Disney is promoting it on this channel as though it were for general audiences. UPDATE. I have seen since the first 2 episodes of the show. It’s interesting and definitely walks a fine line between a children’s show and one meant for general audiences. It’s a lot more mature than I expected and has clearly had a lot of work put into it. For me the animation is just not as nice as I would have liked and the villain is a bit too cartoonish for my tastes. I do however plan on finishing the show.

@TuboCremesi 3 ай бұрын

Because it's made by Walt Disney Animation Studios (this is their first long-form episodes animated series) in co-production with Kugali. So it's not like other animated shows made mainly by Disney Television Animation.

@justicetilsher 3 ай бұрын

@@TuboCremesi That actually makes more sense. So it's not the same creators behind content like Disney Jr. and such.

It's meant for a general audience. Some of the themes would not be fully appreciated by children.

@b1njjj95 3 ай бұрын

Because it IS for general audiences. Any media marketed towards children is able to be watched by people of all ages. Do you not understand how media ratings work?

@justicetilsher 3 ай бұрын

@@b1njjj95 I understand that it's able to be watched by people of all ages, but that doesn't change the fact that it's geared towards a younger audience. Sure, adults might enjoy this show but it won't have the mass appeal behind something like Moana or Inside out 2. Not just because those are sequels, but because they are designed to pull in adults and kids alike through richer animation, more mature writing and deeper themes. Again, if an adult wants to enjoy Iwájú, I am happy for them! But it's not going to appeal to the entire Disney animation fanbase.
