Don Hall, director Big Hero 6, talks about the Baymax series on Disney+. "The series is a continution of Big Hero 6," he says. "The series focuses on Baymax's original protocol, which is to be a nurse robot. Each episode, we meet a new character, a patient Baymax is going to help...Baymax will have a new feature that will allow him to quickly travel around the streets of San Fransokyo to find new patients."

Well, we already had a continuation of Big Hero 6 in the cartoon, but no surprise they gave Baymax his own spinoff .

Baymax helping people seems more his jam than crime-fighting, so it should lead to some heartwarming and amusing stories .

A minor note, Variety mentions this will come out in Fall 2021 (it's the only place I noticed this, all other sources I found said 2022).

Yay! Another Big Hero 6 series!

 

[Peter Paltridge]

Is this a different continuity or something?

 

[RainbowCupcake]

Yes, because we need another Big Hero 6 cartoon...?

I'm sorry I'm confused. I liked Big Hero 6 but two series seems like overkill to me.

I think it's just vaguely set after the movie and will likely use the same CG animation style of the movie.

 

[M.O.D.O.K.]

Huh. I'm assuming this will just be its own thing, just like how the series and Kingdom Hearts III's section ignore each other.

The first series is clearly ending. There are probably only three episodes left.

Dave Lee Down Under managed to transcribe a few more details about the Baymax! series from the Investor Event.

Baymax!'s plot will be a "continuation of the movie where we get to explore more of the City of
San Fransokyo and its wonderful canvas," according to returning BH6 director Don Hall.

In each episode, Baymax in his original nurse protocol will meet different characters that will serve as his new patient. (An example animatic, seen in the video, shows Baymax assisting an elderly lady learning to swim.) Baymax 's newest fast travel feature will allow him to quickly meet new people.

So Hiro's farming Baymax out it seems .

Appears Aunt Cass is the only one from the regular cast who will appear...

 

[Action!]

I like the trailer. Definitely looking forward to it! Baymax is one of my favorite characters.

 

[Silverstar]

Eh, can't get excited about this. I never got all the hype for Baymax; he's OK in small doses, but I never got why so many people think he's the best thing to come out of the franchise. I have no interest in a show with just him. I'm sure fans will enjoy it, but this is a pass for me.

I like it. So excited for it.

 

[Rick Jones]

It's still surreal to see Baymax's further transition from the superhero robot to a cuddly Disney mascot. It doesn't matter much at this point but it would still be cool if the series doesn't retcon the BH6 series from continuity.

It was nice to see Aunt Cass and Mochi. Maybe this is set during the rest of the team's school hours.

So Hiro's farming Baymax out it seems .

I imagine Tadashi would have loved to see this.
