Scavengers Reign

The world shown in this show is one of the most beautiful and enchanting places I've had the pleasure of witnessing. The creatures and their designs are endlessly unique and creative, and the environments they inhabit are just as breathtaking. While sometimes nonsensical in world-building terms, your disbelief is easily suspended while gazing at incredible landscapes and bafflingly interesting creatures. The characters are engaging and their writing is snappy and charming, making it very easy to anchor yourself to the story they are a part of. The phrase "style over substance" has been used a few times, but I wholeheartedly believe there is more than enough substance present to immerse yourself in this world. The plot so far is a very simple, motivators of "survive" and eventually "get to a place", but it is very easy to fall in love with this story and I am very excited for the future of this show. A very easy 9/10.

I'll start by admitting that this show was practically made for me. I love shows and movies like this, where humans have been in space for a while and are starting to settle it. The entire premise of this show was tailored specifically to my tastes, it felt like.

As I watched the show, I fell in love with the characters, the complex world-building that came with the planet Vesta, the animation style, and the voice performances. I was enamored with the ecosystem the animators invented on Vesta. It was so creative and complex and beautifully contrasted the simple season arc of "get to the Demeter". It unpacked some heavy and existential ideas, and was an overall creative and wildly original entry into the "alien planet" category of the science fiction genre. I've recommended it to so many of my friends, and I was gutted when I found out that Season 1 would be it's only.

This is a show that, in twenty, ten, even as little as five years' time, will be remembered as a show that deserved more. This show deserves to find its' audience. I would comfortably put money on this show becoming wildly successful with a dedicated fan base if it got to grow and expand into more seasons.

So, in the off chance that someone from HBO or Netflix that has control over this kind of thing sees this, PLEASE RENEW THE SHOW. Give her the fighting chance she deserves!

I find my self at a loss for words, yet I will do my best to try to convince you to watch what could very well be the next groundbreaking Sci-Fi Epic. It has been a while since I'v been this impressed wih anything(animated or otherwise). Let's be honest creative media is a dying bread in modern entertainment. But I ran into the trailer and it looked promising enough. But what I witnessed was something like getting high in church and watching a man outside splitting the river in half with a wand(not religous, nor have I been high, just painting a picture). Breathtaking visuals, accompanied by a fantastic soundtrack makes this a must watch for any sci-fan fan. The voice cast is also excellent. This might be the silver-lining of this year.

Visuals, audio design, music, the actual media aspect of it is absolutely incredible. The intro alone is breathtaking.

First animated series I've seen in a long time with such an engaging story. Many aspects, all intertwining, haven't seen the whole series yet (for obvious reasons) but am looking forward to what comes next.

Not to mention the incredible world building, so unique, in such a good way. The features in this fictional world are all so different and alien, and to such an extent that I haven't really seen in other works in quite a while.

Highly recommend this show to anyone who enjoys science fiction, worldbuilding, or even just animation as a whole.

This show is truly fascinating.

The world and ecosystem that they have created is beautiful, bewildering, scary, gross, ingenious, and most importantly the ideas are fresh.

The animation is top notch at times, but occasionally it seems like scenes were budgeted. (It's hard to tell these days, what some consider "style", others would consider "poor quality" or "lacking detail"). Overall though, the animation serves its purpose very well, and the world and creature design is some of the most creative I've ever seen.

Definitely a show worth checking out for any fans of the sci-fi genre. Truly a thought provoking, mesmerizing, unique piece of media.
