Master Raindrop
What's the Story?
MASTER RAINDROP is one of five elements (water, wood, metal, fire, and earth) who work together to battle evil and save their master, Yun, from General Bu and his terracotta army.
Is It Any Good?
The animated show is visually appealing, yet its storyline is typical of what you would find in other martial arts shows and movies. It does promote teamwork as the characters need to work together, yet even its choice of some of the elements (wood, earth, metal) feels a little off. While Master Raindrop has some features typically found in a martial arts show, they usually battle by throwing things (ball of flame, ball of water) at one another, and then others jump to avoid these things.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about how the battle between the elements might have been stronger. If Master Raindrop had thrown his water at Flamo, what would have happened? What if Flamo threw his fire at Shao Yen (Wood)?
Kids: What two elements would have the strongest battle against each other and why? How can the other elements convince Flamo to leave General Bu to join them? Why would Flamo want to stay with General Bu?
