En la pequeña aldea gala, unos niños han empezado una discusión infantil. En el transcurso de la reyerta, el caldero en el que Panoramix está preparando la poción mágica cae al suelo, derramando el preciado contenido. El druida sale entonces al bosque a buscar los ingredientes para preparar una nueva marmita, pero es secuestrado por sus temibles enemigos: "los romanos". Astérix y Obélix, con la ayuda de Idéfix, descubren el hecho y persiguen a los romanos para liberar a su amigo. Los romanos tienen intención llegar hasta los confines del mar y arrojar a Panorámix al precipicio del mundo (pues suponen que es plano), pero se encontrarán con América. Y los dos pequeños galos van tras ellos. (20th Century Fox España)

I consider this installment in the Asterix cartoon series comparable to its predecessors and successor. It’s got everything, including pirates and an argument over fish, and Asterix's adventures with other cultures are not out of place in terms of innovation. Sometimes I'd like to see his trip to Spain in a movie, for example. Overall, I have no problem with this "problematic" piece.

As it's been mentioned here a few times, this episode is really the worst of the lot. It desperately lacks the imaginative Asterix humour that so adorned the forays into Egypt and Britain. Everything is presented terribly dry and without much inspiration. Fortunately, Asterix and Obelix are such likeable characters that neither the boring direction nor the absolutely terrible Czech dubbing can sink their adventure completely.

Asterix, who is already quite strange to me. The story tries to be really crazy, to make it seem like a great idea, but it's simply absurd and also cliché. One character in the story - and it's a Roman - says that without the potion, the Gallic village would be nothing. Well, let's face it, it's true. Without Asterix, Obelix, Panoramix, and Dogmatix, the village is really just a terrible collection of characters. And I've seen it in a disgusting Czech dubbing as well.
