Upon first watch, Buddy feels like it should have been aired on Adult Swim at four in the morning.

A refreshing twist is that all the kids’ powers are…kind of useless. There’s a kid who can only move in slow motion, a kid who has every power in the world but can only use them randomly, and our main character Missy who has no powers at all.
