Beautiful animation, unexpected story
6 November 2023
First time watching this, the first thing that brought back was "Fantastic Planet". Both movies & episodes have totally alien landscape, creatures that are explained as you watch them.

I think the hardest part of "Scavenger Reign" is to throw you in the middle of the situation that you never thought existed. Finding out the situation episode by episode was on both, you learned as the movie/episode was watched.

Let's not forget the strange animation Fantastic Planet was cutting edge for the time.

But what makes "Scavenger Reign" break away from the others is the story. You don't get a run of the mill Science Fiction story with a long explaining background story. You learn as they learn. How the creatures all have a purpose that can kill you or help you survive. You also see how the characters get smarter but also how they fall apart.

The animation is clean and they make sense how flying insects that blend into the trees and seems to be a reason for that. Once again, you learn as they learn. This show is Definitely NOT for little kids. Bizarre and beautiful, really incredibly thought out creatures, gorgeous landscape and beats any Disney movie, that's for sure.
