Odun
The quality of the animations. I literally said wow 💃🏼 when I watched it! I knew it was going to be great but nothing prepared me. I am so excited already and the new age societal references too already have glued.

Episode 1 and I’m already hooked! I’m so excited to watch the rest of the series. The animation is breathtaking the attention to detail is insane. Seeing 4C hair so beautifully represented in animation is such a rare gem, and they captured the curls perfectly. The cinematography is truly at its peak. I absolutely love Stay Dry and can’t wait to see what’s next!
