Yet another show attempting to be found, this one by Goerden Whitman called PORT BY THE SEA. The series is about two kids, Port and Umi, and their pet crab, Jolly Roger, as they set sail out into the ocean to fix a now broken moon. With the moon broken, an ancient titan named Tiamat is free to wreak the same havoc he once spread, but must replenish lost energy and wait for the final piece of the seal to break. Port, Umi, and Jolly Roger must overcome great obstacles from both the present and past to make things right.

This one didn't get much notoriety at all. The voice acting delivery and script are pretty poor. Animation is unique and fun. Very nice lore and idea for a show I must say. They got to work on the writing and the delivery. That was awfully bad for the two main character's especially.

It has potential with an original idea. It reminds me of Flapjack and Steven Universe combined. But the voice delivery was noticeably bad and lifeless with some atrocious writing... and that's saying something considering other online shows swear all the time. Thankfully this one does not. Great designs and I do like this. It needs to patching up though.

Hate to say this, but it was very underwhelming. The animation was good, but very few frames per animation scene. Pretty choppy. The script writing is really bad. It is very poor, but if they move to some more professional writers, I think the idea is a good idea! The premise and idea is cool, but it is written out so badly.
Also that monster throwing up is NUTS. So much blasting out and the kids are totally clean, wut?

Everyone reads into everything so deeply. For the average viewer, it will be just fine. Especially for a kid audience, or young adult. The writing wasn't great, but most people don't even know the difference between good and bad. It's just to entertain them.

It was okay. I like the idea, but I think it needs a lot of work still, mainly in the voice acting. That was pretty atrocious and lifeless. But the dynamic is there. I can tell they have a certain dynamic for the two main character's and it can totally work, if they removed the stunted voice acting.

That is some awful delivery by the voice actors. Such stitled writing, ooofff. A big L.
The animation was good and they should still be happy with what they made. The story has promise but they got to reel in the awful writing and delivery.
-
I have to agree here. The delivery is pretty poor, but the overall story could be good. It needs some professionals to comb over this, but I think it can be successful. The 'low' view count of under a million, not even 650k in a month has me worried though that this was mostly overlooked. Credit to them for not going the route of so many other indie shows that now swear like sailors... leave it to a show about sailors that has no swearing, lol.
I think this show needs work, but they have some things already pretty good. Animation, the core concept, character designs, are all fine to good.

Still haven't watched it, but I plan to.
