Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2024)

Audience Reviews

Adam M Half of these episodes are almost unwatchable. Jerky animation, captions fall off halfway through, half-baked lessons/messages. It had us asking “How long until this is over?” which is amazing considering the 10-11 minute long episode runtimes. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/01/24 Full Review Stephen S this show is awful and nasty dont let your kids watch this if you actually care about them Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/09/23 Full Review Spencer P From the beautiful to the bizarre, Kizazi Moto is an original anthology with plenty of fresh sci-fi short stories from a generally unknown sector of the animation world. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/07/23 Full Review Promise O really amazing story telling Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/28/23 Full Review Sinathi K I went into it sceptical, but it surpassed all of my expectations. The show featured a refreshing range of animation, a break from the Disney standard of animation that has taken over in recent years. I particularly enjoyed the use of indigenous languages (even though I couldn't understand all of them) as I feel, it helps ground the episodes in their established worlds. They all feature young children breaking barriers, and since all of them are African in some capacity, I think the message would be wonderful for younger, black kids to take away. I think the decision to put 'Herderboy' as the first episode was a good one as it establishes what you can expect from the series going forward; stylized animation with a black cast, speaking in black languages while retelling and giving life to African stories that deserve to live another generation. 'First Totem Problems' touches on the aspects of death and the ancestors in a fun and light-hearted way, while delving into the complexities of having multiple identities and backgrounds at the same time, and finding acceptance and balance with all the different sides. 'Hatima', a story of sisters and the divide of sister nations touches on topics of war, division, anger and resentment, and it ends on a positive note, showing hope for a future where we realize that, in the end, we are all one. My personal favourites are 'Mukudzei', 'You Give Me Heart', 'Stardust' and 'Enkai'. If you enjoyed something like Love, Death and Robots, but wished it had more African stories, this one is for you. I wish Disney had done more promotion for this show as many black children deserve to see themselves in stories as beautiful as these. Kazazi Moto is a series that is pushing African animation forward, and I am desperately excited for the future. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/19/23 Full Review Kimberly K Finally! Animation created by African animators for African children and people. It made me feel like I could be and do anything in the world.
