Young Chickenhare is the adopted son of King Peter, a famous adventurer. Part chicken and part hare, he has a really tough time growing up and disguises himself as a hare to avoid the mockeries of his peers. When the day of the Royal Adventurer Society trials comes, Chickenhare, hampered by his disguise, fails miserably. But he is determined to grab a second chance and find the Scepter of the Hamster of Darkness, before his evil Uncle Lapin. The Scepter will give immense power to its holder. If Lapin gets hold of it, he will be unstoppable. Accompanied by his faithful servant Abe, a sarcastic turtle, and Meg, a martial arts expert skunk, he sets of on an epic and initiatory quest.

"I liked the animation style but I just wasn’t the biggest fan of the film. Can’t even put my finger on why. Like different things about it bugged me. For example, the voice for Chickenhare didn’t really fit him. Stuff like that"

"It was weird but fun. It serves as a great lesson to embrace what makes us different. "

"Beautifully animated, characters vary, one could mistake this as a follow up to "Zootopia", but by making that reference I believe I have said too much. The outlining difference, we are immersed in a fantasy world where the main character, more or less, takes the appearance of a young "Indiana Jones"."

"The character designs are appealing, the settings are interesting, and the animation is fluid. The lesson of accepting oneself is well executed and could even speak to queer people. I also really enjoyed the soundtrack by Puggy, especially the Piggies theme and the Chickenhare theme. The only drawbacks are the story and voice acting, as they are passable at best. Fart jokes are also a bit annoying, but thankfully they are kept to an absolute minimum."
