Funestopole Circus
Comedy series for young adults blending Western & Shonen.
Two allied bounty hunters will stop at nothing to escape a mad world ruled by absurd laws. They both dream of freedom but only one can make it out. It’s game on.
PITCH
Funestopole is a mining city at the bottom of a deep crater. The only way to escape this hell is to board a train reserved for Funestopolitan oligarchs. Two inhabitants of the slums, Pigro, a nonchalant hunter, and Ania, a fiery trainer, become unlikely allies through the force of fate, with the aim of becoming the best hunters in the city to secure their train ticket. Both dream of leaving the city, but only one will succeed, because after all, no rules apply in Funestopole.
OFFBEAT 2D ADULT SERIES
How far can one go for personal ascent? That’s the question the series asks. The relationship between social extraction and morality is treated through the parallel trajectories of our two heroes (altruism and egoism). Aimed at young adults, the subject of the race for success is approached with an absurd and cynical angle in this universe that borrows codes from Mad Max, Rick & Morty and One Punch Man.
