By September 2021, “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” had become the most popular Japanese animated television show in the US. It belongs to the genre of action-adventure and dark fantasy. As a result of his younger sister being turned into a demon, Tanjiro becomes a demon slayer after being killed by his family. Avengeing his family, he searches for a cure for his sister. Netflix and Hulu are among the streaming services that offer the show.

The story of “Rooty Tooty Toot” is effectively told through these means. All of the color, pattern, drawing, and movement in the film combine to create an engaging and dynamic experience. It is more memorable and impactful with the limited animation style because the key actions and gestures stand out. Characters’ personalities and actions are also emphasized in the stylized drawing style of the film, which makes the characters more relatable.
The TV show that I will be focusing on will be Bojack Horseman by Raphael Bob-Waksberg and Lisa Hanawalt. I’m drawn to this show because I’ve watched it a bunch of times and no matter what I always think about it and how it felt watching it. There are so many small details that I end up missing but also the show as a whole and how it approaches adult topics and depression. I believe it’s a show that every young adult should watch some time in their life more than once. It goes through a lot of topics that I believe many adult cartoons and even live action shows do not cover.
Some elements I will be writing about are the general story, how the topics are approached under the guise of comedy, the use of an anti-hero as a main protagonist, how the story and idea was developed and how the animation style and process furthered the rawness of the story.
