Review of "Mysticons" 9/26/17 by Suzanne
airs Saturdays on Nickelodeon

This is a cartoon for shows (especially girls). I don't follow kids' shows or comics, so I thought it was based on something, but it's original.  The show takes place in a fictional land called Gemina where they have regular people and cities as well as dragons and other supernatural creatures. Two girls who live in the palace end up teaming up with two girls who are street-smart thieves to battle the super villains.

It has a lot of fun and humor. I think any kid will love it. Maybe some adults, too. Those who like animated shows, play video games, or watch kids' shows should love this. I recommend it for kids or adults.  It reminds me of shows I used to watch, but it's way better.
