This review assumes you've watched Scavengers Reign already, and will not give context.
Scavengers Reign is a fundamentally flawed show, and often fails to approach it's own ideas and plot logically. It didn't leave a huge impression on me and I honestly wasn't even going to review it... until I saw how absolutley fucking bananas everyone online is over it. People are calling it the best sci-fi of the year, the decade, or for christ sake the CENTURY? I really wanted to like this show but honestly I can see why it got cancelled...
I'll start out with the thing I liked the most about it, the animation. I give this show a lot of shit, but it's animation and art is honestly some of them best I've seen in a while. I love the way the characters are drawn; I prefer a less is more approach to character design and this show absolutley nails that. They look like people I might see on a walk. The settings are also beautiful and visually creative. Visually. As I'll discuss, this show is mostly carried by its animation and art style. The settings are, sadly, a beautiful facade.
Vesta Minor isn't nearly as dangerous as the writers want you to think.
