Critical Role's The Mighty Nein Reveals First Look, Season 1 to Air on November 19th

The Mighty Nein will come to Prime Video in November. Alongside news that The Legend of Vox Machina would be picked up for a fifth season, Prime Video also revealed a first look at The Mighty Nein animated series and announced that the show would start airing on November 19th. You can check out a "sneak peek" of the season down below, which features six of The Mighty Nein's seven characters being interrogated after an incident at a traveling circus.


The Mighty Nein will star Critical Role's founding cast members (Matt Mercer, Marisha Ray, Liam O'Brien, Travis Willingham, Taliesin Jaffe, Laura Bailey, Ashley Johnson, and Sam Riegel) and will feature a group of misfit heroes swept up into the political intrigue of two feuding nations. While The Legend of Vox Machina is a prototypical heroic quest, The Mighty Nein's heroes are much more reluctant and face much more personal threats over the course of their adventures.

I don't watch Critical Role (I just can't into watching actual plays), but I've enjoyed the Vox Machina cartoon so I'm looking forward to this.

The Mighty Nein are arguably peak Critical Role. This should be really good.

Still funny that Jester was to be a Warlock but another player already created one so shes a cleric. She's so Warlock coded it's hilarious.

Travis, Laura's husband, swiped the warlock out from under her.

Yeah. The Mighty Nein is wildly better than Bell's Hells. It's not even close. Vox Machina is good, but MN is so much better.

I agree that the characters are the best. The story of the campaign loses steam about 2/3 of the way through, though. IMO.

And didn’t he end up not really liking playing a Warlock that much and multiclassing to Paladin?

I’m not sure about the dislike, but he did eventually multiclass into a paladin.

I think this is a pretty widespread opinion.

I mostly listened in the gym, cutting grass, and road trips.

Fantastic.

It also helps that we, the viewers, got to watch the entire campaign. Whereas, with Vox Machina, the story starts off En Media Res entering Kraghammer since it picks up from their home game

What's all this Mighty Nein talk? This is clearly a promo for the Sensual Seven.
