Featured reviews
One of the best animation shorts I've seen in a long time that caters to my kind of humor. Insanely beautifully crafted. Animation, humor, and dialogues are spot on! Music, sound effects, and tension are delightful. Even Vimeo staff praised it and put it center stage in its top picks for a reason. Can't wait for the whole season 1 to start! Even my mom laughed out loud :)
I really liked the social interaction of the design team with us the audience. We got an up-close and personal story behind this production which made me love this even more. 10 stars from me.

OK, so as it was said before, this goes 100% against the main current of blockbuster. This short is very well done, the script is very smart and the graphics are amazing ! Now, this is definitely not for everyone... your need to be quick to catch jokes and references... But if you do, then, it's a real pleasure ! In 12 minutes, they packed a crazy amount of things... the concept is great, and it's really really well executed. Watch it, and make your own opinion ! Can't wait for the full season...
I quite enjoyed this overall. Oddly loveable. However, the gratuitous female with a rich daddy and bulbous breasts (clothed and nude) added nothing. Indeed, it was a highly annoying distraction and will be a reason not to watch thIs. Highly disrespectful to your potential female audience.
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!!! I just saw the short on Amazon Prime. Flying Lotus brought me here! I really enjoyed the style and sense of humour. It's super funny and original. The music is amazing: Flying Lotus, Mr Oizo, Sebastian... This is definitely a must see! Can't wait to see the series. Probably the next big thing in animation.
I loved it, but I understand than some might not get it. This is only a Pilot for a Series, so no real story here, as this is more of an introduction to the characters and style of the whole thing. But this is already full of references, some obvious and some much less obvious, and I loved the visual design.
