Pantheon

English and/e Português(BR).

Animations are (always) underrated for the majority, but if I could offer you (non-animation consumer) ONE contemporary animated production to watch, it’d be Pantheon. But to be fair and even more accurate on my recommendation, this is a show for whom:

1. Loves SciFi and is still wondering if we all live in a simulation.
2. Like to catch Easter eggs here-and-there.
3. Is opened to deeper reflections about the future and its endless possibilities.

There are two seasons, the first is focused on the action and building the characters. The second is way more Philosophical and by the end of it you may need some time to digest its storytelling.

I loved it, I’m not sure if I am ready for UIs, but it’s a very intriguing subject.

Eu sinceramente espero que vc, lendo esse review, esteja aberto a animações com temas mais maduros, porque Pantheon é exatamente esse tipo de história nesse tipo de mídia. É uma obra de ficção científica que lembra um pouco, ou melhor, muito Matrix. É uma dessas histórias que ao final da segunda temporada vc pode vir a se questionar o que é realidade? Os átomos e a matéria definem a realidade, ou como Descartes colocou, “penso, logo existo”? E ouso apontar que talvez seja essa a primeira de muitas vezes que vc “ouvirá” falar de UI (Uploaded Intelligence). Boa jornada, espero que goste!

This is arguably the best written, absolutely fascinating story I have ever come across. I love the story, the concepts, the topics explored and how it's true to itself. Especially with so many series always dragging on a story for the fanbase/milking as much as it get, this one does end (?) in its own accord. I literally just made an account to specifically write a review where a good review is due. There is nothing more to say, other than watch it, it is so worth every minute of your time.
