We tuned in expecting jokes and space hijinks.

What we got… was Seymour.

This wasn’t just a cartoon episode. It was a punch to the soul.

No dialogue. No manipulation. Just one dog… waiting.

Futurama showed us that animated stories could hit harder than real life.

Some of us still aren't over it.

Yeah....don't watch Grave of the Fireflies if you think this was bad. Futurama has drinking and other adult topics, surely a Ghibli film is safe.....right?

Grave of the Fireflies was emotional terrorism. I watched it once and aged ten years.

Any other “safe” animated films that emotionally ambushed you?

Oh god, Up didn’t even give us a warm-up. Just “Hi, meet Ellie—now feel everything you’ve ever lost.

For all things Futurama
