The infamous Billy West incarnation of our favorite limbless eggplant just doesn't get the credit he deserves. In the series itself, Rayman is depicted as a sassy, rebellious teenager (at least I see him as a teen) with a no-bullshit attitude, but happens to be very considerate and cares for others around him, while being a wise leader to his group of circus fugitives. Any scene with Rayman in it is one of the only watchable moments in the show, in my opinion.
Despite hardly being the main focus and only using his powers for two episodes, the rest of his character still carries out those good ol' Rayman factors. In fact, he feels more like Rayman than Captain Laserhawk's lackluster, cocaine addict. As for Billy West, I think he did a decent job capturing a teen Rayman's essence, if not for the broken Boston accent. (Although, I gotta be honest. The accent is very amusing to listen to. lol)
Rayman The Animated Series certainly isn't good, but it isn't bad either. In fact, it's more watchable than Rabbids Invasion. (And no, I'm not saying that out of spite) Rayman himself is possibly the only strong point in this series. If you don't wanna watch it for the story, then just watch it for Rayman!
Rayman belongs to Ubisoft.
