Bad Qualities

 * 1) The animation, while a little better than the movie, is still very cheap and lazy, with characters occasionally getting off-model and looking weird, and on top of that it often recycles a lot of previously done animations and character poses.
 * 2) Speaking of animation, the art style is also very unattractive and amateurish, basically being a failed attempt to "modernize" the cartoon look, with very simple and poorly detailed backgrounds, looking even worse than the first movie, and super weird anthropomorphic animal designs, with most of them for some reason having a very human body shape, getting to be a bit disturbing, with some of them even having visible breasts.
 * 3) Also, the color palette also looks very simple and amateurish.
 * 4) Some of the new character adaptations for the new art style also look horrible, especially for Dumontzinho's father and Tales' mother.
 * 5) The humor is generally very boring and weak, with an overuse of bland animal-related puns.
 * 6) Most of the episode plots, although they have a good moral lesson, are executed in a bad or average way, and often even weird, with the episode where Bandeira (the anteater) goes on a date with Jaca (an alligator) being the worst of all.
 * 7) Music clips at the end of episodes can be very boring and repetitive, especially the noise-related music.
 * 8) The voice acting is also not the best.
 * 9) The character development is also very weak and underexplored, especially considering that the show has such a wide variety of characters.
 * 10) Ratãozinho, a major character in the first movie, only appears in TWO episodes of this series, and for some reason he keeps his gruff personality, despite having redeemed himself at the end of the first movie.

Good Qualities

 * 1) The main characters are much more likable in this series than they are in the movie, although that makes sense since they redeemed themselves at the end of the movie.
 * 2) Furthermore, most of the characters, despite being little explored, are at least bearable.
 * 3) Some episode plots are decent, like the study-related episode, which gives a moral lesson about the importance of studying and even features a good song at the end.
 * 4) Mouse and his henchmen are decent villains, who play good roles in the episodes they appear in.
 * 5) Also, Mouse this time receives punishment for his actions, unlike the first movie.
 * 6) The soundtrack is generally decent, with some songs at the end of episodes being good, but definitely the best part of the soundtrack (or even the best part of the whole show) is the opening song.
 * 7) As said before, the moral lessons given by the show (which are mostly about the environment) are great, and some episodes are really good, although they still have their flaws.
 * 8) At least it's a little better than the first movie in some ways.
