Part 1 of 2: I know this is a writing themed website, but I'll like to recommend a show to you all, 101 followers, that you should watch Infinity Train on HBO Max. (HBO Max is coming internationally this summer for those outside the US) Without delving into spoilers, Infinity Train is an animated (cartoon) anthology series (basically every season follows a whole new cast while having an overarching storyline) that is about people boarding a seemingly infinite train with pocket dimension cars find themselves with this mysterious glowing, green number on their hands.
If that doesn't intrigue you, then here are reasons why this show is awesome!
- Beautiful and detailed background art. And some pretty neat synth music.
- Interesting and realistic characters and with some of them the show explore complex topics.
- It can be pretty dark at some points, if you're into or okay with that kind of stuff. There are also plenty of light-hearted moments too.
- Since every car is its own pocket dimension, there are always new places to explore. The changes in its setting can be fascinating and refreshing. With these places, there are also unique creatures that live in them.
- The nature of the train is pretty mysterious, don't you think?
- Concise yet has depth. Each episode is 11 minutes long with each season being 10 episodes long, but despite being short, it makes up with its terrific pacing.
- I don't know if it all of this makes it sound pretentious, but I'll let you know that it's fairly down-to-earth, albeit the fantastical elements in the show.
- It's cool. B)
