englanti An absolutely epic adventure from Filmation, the studio that brought us the best in TV animation entertainment at the time. While Adam/He-Man's adventures had reached their climax, it was time to pass the sword of power to his newfound sister Adora. Through the classic path of awakening (as tends to happen in fantasy), Adora had developed sympathy for the oppressed side of good, even though she had been raised in a lie by the doubly evil Transformer Hordak and the sorceress Shadow Weaver, and was able to become She-Ra, Princess of Power. Yes, the animation is a bit thin by today's standards, but the story is good enough to hold your attention even today. The musical motifs have grace, and the regularly recurring melody during the transformations is perfection itself. They both begin with the winged phrase "By the power of Grayskull...!" and He-Man continues "I have the power!" and She-Ra counters "I am She-Ra!" and it rumbles perfectly. I’d like to look around for the entire series because it's too good to pass up. The world of Eternia and Masters of the Universe is an absolute foreshadowing of Hercules and Xena. ()
