Best Disney Junior series yet!
16 April 2023
Without any doubt, this is the best Disney Junior series of all time, both overall and as female lead-character. At first, I didnt expect anything when it was first released, in fact I didnt continue watch the whole series. But after refound the series and watch all of the episodes, boy oh boy, I was blowned away, amazed and fascinated with this series. In fact, I really loved it. Here's some of my thoughts why this is the best Disney Junior series yet (according to me).

1. Animation, although some criticize the animation style which is not good, I must say its one of the best animation. However, I do have to criticize the darker coloration from mid season 3 until season 4 which I do not prefer. But still, its very superb.

2. Song/music, its definetly one of the thing that makes it the best, the score, the music is really beautiful, enjoyable and loveable that make me want to listen it again and again. In fact, I count less than 10 songs that I didnt enjoy, but not to level of dislike or hate. Some of the songs even contain moral lessons for our kids.

3. Actors, I really likes how the actors play their characters. I especially really glad that they choose Ariel Winter to play main role as Princess Sofia. Even so, I'm also proud with the chosen actors that play each of the characters, they really did a great job with their voice role.

4. Characters, I really enjoy each of the characters performances. I like Sofia's physical characteristics that makes her cute and adorable, yet strong and tough within. But what I really like the most is how each character is emotionally and behaviorally developed from episode to episode, so they didnt just stagnant to always have same behavior all the time.

5. Moral lessons, theres no argue that this series is full with moral lessons for all of us, young and old, boys and girls. And how they teach us that moral lessons through the series is beautiful.

6. And the best of all, its storyline/plot. Its outstanding for animated series for kids/preschool children. How they did the storytelling from their first beginning movie, her first episode, until its finale special movie, its so much fun, exciting, intense, exhilarating, but its really understandable for kids at any age. I also really enjoy how they do continuity for each episode and how they connect some of the story that link to previous or upcoming story, that is so amazing to watch and to understand. Thats why I rare get tired or bored to watch each episode over and over again.

However, and this is for the good sake for my Muslim friends, just to remind that the whole series is full with magics and spells that lead to syirik, so its best to keep our children away from watching it. Even if want to watch, its just so we can learn some moral lessons from each episode.

All in all, what an outstanding series. Thumbs up for the production team that made the series so amazing to watch.

I was thinking, if one day Disney Junior make their own version of Avengers, I think that Princess Sofia is the right leader for the team (but this is just my thoughts, which might won't happen any time soon haha)

Once again, what an outstanding Disney Junior series. This is the best series yet, in fact I can hardly think that there will be a series that will defeat Sofia the First to be the best series any time soon.

Until then, its my favourite Disney Junior series.
