On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

WAT? That's the best TV I've seen since The Last of Us. Absolutely amazing show that I've recommended to everyone I know. The worst part about watching it is that everything else you watch afterwards feels flat and uninspired. Tell the director I said that!

I loved it, but It definitely needed another season, but I am not really sure they wanted that risk? They are going to need to sell a lot of skins to recoup the money spent on the show.

I think a lot of the merch only started hitting their store this year and the show is over. They had a lot of time to ramp up merch over the years to keep the momentum going. Still waiting for an Ekko arcane figure.

Pacing wasn't an issue for me as much as lazy character development and a lack of story. I still loved the animation and liked the show overall.
