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.

Scavenger's Reign is a breath of fresh air, not just as an animated series, but in general as a completely new idea executed brilliantly. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. It can be very disturbing with body and existential horror, but it is absolutely excellent.
I’ve watched it all and still don’t get it. Can you explain to me what I’m missing?
It's not a 3 act plot story, or even truly have a point per se, at least not that I could fathom. I think of it more as art that you interpret through your own lens.
It felt like an anthology with 3 story lines that converge at the end, but the lack of any understanding of the world around (by both the viewer and the characters) them makes all interactions with the environment feel contrived.
