Discovering the Magic of 'The Owl House': A New Era of Animated Series

In recent years, we've seen a new era of animated series emerge, challenging the traditional notions of what a children's cartoon should be. Shows like "Avatar: The Last Airbender" and "Gravity Falls" have proven that animated storytelling can be just as rich, complex, and emotionally resonant as any live-action series. And now, we can add another show to that list: "The Owl House."

Created by Dana Terrace, "The Owl House" follows the adventures of Luz, a young girl who finds herself transported to a magical world where she discovers that she has the ability to perform magic. She befriends a rebellious witch named Eda and a tiny demon named King, and together they go on all sorts of fantastical adventures, while also battling the evil forces that threaten their world.

At first glance, "The Owl House" may seem like just another wacky animated series. But as you start to delve deeper into the show's world and characters, you quickly realize that there's so much more going on here. For starters, the show has a wonderfully diverse cast of characters, with representation that goes beyond just tokenism. Luz herself is a Latina girl, and her identity and culture are woven seamlessly into the show's fabric. The show also features characters with disabilities and characters from different socio-economic backgrounds, making it a refreshing change from the usual whitewashed, able-bodied, middle-class world of most children's animation.

But beyond just its diverse cast, "The Owl House" is also notable for its complex and nuanced storytelling. The show deals with themes of identity, self-acceptance, and the power of community, all while balancing its fantastical elements with real-world issues. The show is unafraid to tackle topics like prejudice, discrimination, and even authoritarianism, all in a way that's accessible to younger viewers without talking down to them.

What's particularly impressive about "The Owl House" is how it manages to balance its darker themes with a sense of humor and whimsy. The show is full of wacky creatures, pun-filled jokes, and hilarious one-liners, all delivered with impeccable timing by the show's talented voice cast. And yet, even in the midst of all the silliness, there's always a sense of heart and sincerity that shines through.

Of course, none of this would matter if the animation itself wasn't top-notch, and thankfully, "The Owl House" delivers in that regard as well. The show's art style is distinctive and eye-catching, with a bold use of color and a penchant for surreal imagery. The animation is smooth and expressive, bringing the show's characters and world to life in a way that's truly captivating.

In short, "The Owl House" is a truly special animated series, one that's breaking new ground in terms of representation, storytelling, and artistic vision. It's a show that's not afraid to take risks, to tackle difficult topics, and to embrace the full range of human emotion. And most importantly, it's a show that's resonating with viewers of all ages, proving once again that animation can be just as powerful and meaningful as any other form of storytelling.

REIGN: The Conqueror — Madhouse Studios’ Medieval Futurist Anime

Anime ahead of its time, REIGN: The Conqueror (アレクサンダー戦記 [Arekusandā Senki]) is a Madhouse Studios (One Punch Man, Death Note, Trigun) gem deep in its back catalog. Based on a novel by best-selling Japanese author 荒俣 宏 (Hiroshi Aramata), it’s the story of the rise and ensuing battle against Persia of the ancient world’s greatest emperor, Alexander the Great.

We’ve an engaging cast of characters which are all, at least in name and relation to him, accurate to ancient accounts. Onscreen are King Philip II of Macedon and his pagan queen Olympias, both rearing Alexander to one day assume the throne. Alexander finds adventure alongside many friends including Ptolemy I, his most trusted general of the fearsome and mighty Macedonian army. Carrying Alexander to victory is his famous black stallion war horse, Bucephalus, who takes down soldiers and assassins with golden armored mechanical muzzle and hooves. Also in this epic is Alexander’s personal tutor and famous ancient philosopher of the Western World, Aristotle, driving story subtext and plot. In fact, many memorable philosophers are there, such as the cynic-philosopher Diogenes “The Dog” and the ghost (or “essence”) of Plato.

One interesting dynamic to REIGN: The Conqueror is we never quite know if we’re watching the past or the future unfold. It subverts any familiar timeline, suspended in a surreal and timeless period where fantasy elements abound, such as shapeshifting spirit alchemist factions (like the Pythagorean Cult, bent on hopes to assassinate Alexander), cloud resident titans and elemental gods. While undercurrents of electricity and advanced technology are part of this world, battles are won by horse cavalries, swords, spears and shields. Landscapes are adorned with moving walkways and extreme architecture. Flying machines course the sky. This is medieval futurism at its best, and Madhouse Studios probably couldn’t have chosen a better art designer to create such hypnotizing and impossible juxtaposition. That animator’s name is Peter Chung, the very same Aeon Flux legend himself.

Perhaps none of the ethereal themes would have been so elegantly animated, or as moving and entertaining, without Peter Chung (IG: @peter_k_chung) at the helm of this multi-nation anime project. Chung’s animation is influential for many. Those less familiar with his work, you might be surprised to know his portfolio includes some of the best and most popular animation of the last 35 years. Notwithstanding his well-known MTV series, Aeon Flux, his animation and collaboration is responsible for the original Transformers TV show, the title opening sequence for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and also co-designing Nickelodeon’s Rugrats. Chung’s art direction and contribution is part and parcel to the stunning visual imagery and magic you experience in REIGN: The Conqueror.

I could imagine this 13 part series landing perfectly among today’s anime and post-Game-of-Thrones era. But it aired on WOWOW and Adult Swim a little too ahead of its time in ’99 and ’03. REIGN: The Conqueror challenges watchers to sit back and enjoy the beauty of anime that’s packed with style and memorable story, makes you feel anime in a visceral way. It will surprise and intrigue you.
