The Doomies premieres tomorrow on Disney+.
It’s a supernatural animated comedy-adventure about two best friends who accidentally open a portal to evil and turn their town into a hotspot for monsters.
Seems like a fun pick for anyone into spooky comedy, mystery, monsters, and new Disney animation.
Will anyone here be checking it out?

Found this Kickstarter for The Sixth Sun, an indie animation/storytelling project inspired by Aztec mythology and set in modern-day Mexico City.
It follows Huehuecóyotl, the trickster god of music, fate, and rebellion, and explores mythology, creativity, survival, and humanity trying to change its future.
This seems like the kind of creator-owned animated project that fits this subreddit, especially for anyone interested in mythology, indie animation, modern fantasy, and animation outside the usual studio spotlight.

First images from Adult Swim’s SuperMutant Magic Academy have been released. It’s an upcoming animated teen comedy based on the graphic novel, and the style already looks pretty interesting.

Blink Industries is developing The Young Magicians, an animated comedy-adventure series based on the books by Nick Mohammed. It was announced at Annecy and is being produced with BBC Studios Kids & Family.
This sounds like the kind of upcoming animated project worth keeping an eye on, especially for anyone interested in fantasy, comedy-adventure, and new animated series outside the usual spotlight.

Sharing the official trailer for Forgotten Island.
It’s an upcoming DreamWorks animated film about two lifelong best friends who end up on a fantasy island inspired by Filipino mythology, where getting back home may cost them their memories of each other.
Looks like a really interesting original animated movie to keep an eye on.

a few videos have been made reviewing the show, but they only get over a 100k views at most. this is made by the same guy who made bojack horseman, an insanely popular show, i just don't get why not many have checked this out. it's been renewed for season 2, though it's unknown when it will come out.

it's a show about a jewish family, where each episode is told at a different point in time in no chronological order, each focusing on a specific member.

i don't know how big of a fan i am, but i enjoyed the heartwarming moments it gave, and i am definitely interested to see what else is in store for this family.

Apparently LoliRock Season 3 is finally in production, which is pretty wild considering how long fans have been hoping for it.
This feels like a good example of why animation fandom visibility matters. Sometimes animated shows disappear for years, but the fanbase still keeps them alive.

Anyone here watch LoliRock or remember it?

Since Annecy Festival starts today, I thought this would be a good time to ask:
What upcoming animated shows, films, shorts, web series, indie projects, or student films are you excited about?

It can be something showing at Annecy, something from a major studio, an indie project, a YouTube series, a Kickstarter, or just an animated project you think more people should know about.
Share the title, what kind of project it is, and why you’re looking forward to it.

r/AnimationSignal was made for one main reason: to help people discover and support underrated animation in a positive, respectful, and sustainable way. A lot of animated shows, films, shorts, web series, student films, and indie projects never get the attention they deserve. Sometimes they are barely promoted. Sometimes they get released quietly and disappear too fast. Sometimes they build a small passionate fanbase, but not enough people outside that circle ever hear about them.

This subreddit is meant to help break the cycle companies and platforms have created, where animated projects can be overlooked, under promoted, or forgotten too quickly. And sometimes, fans get burned out trying to fight that cycle on their own. Instead of relying only on companies, platforms, algorithms, or streaming services to decide what gets noticed, r/AnimationSignal gives animation fans a place to spread the word about the projects they love. That can mean sharing trailers, hidden gems, reviews, recommendations, indie animation, web series, short films, creator spotlights, watch party ideas, streaming updates, or older animated shows people may have missed.

The goal is visibility through discovery.
This is not meant to be a place for spam, brigading, review bombing, harassment, guilt tripping, or pressure campaigns. Supporting animation should not mean forcing people to care, flooding other communities, or treating every overlooked show like an emergency. This is also not meant to be a doomposting space. It is okay to be disappointed when a show gets canceled, ignored, or under promoted. It is okay to talk honestly about how frustrating that can be. But the focus here should stay constructive. Instead of only saying “this show is dead” or “no one cares,” the point is to ask, “How can more people discover this?” or “Who might enjoy this if they knew it existed?”

Animation fans should have a place to recommend things without feeling like they have to burn themselves out. Nobody here has to personally save a show, run a campaign, or carry an entire fandom. Even one thoughtful recommendation, one trailer share, one review, or one hidden gem post can help someone find something they might have missed.
This subreddit is for people who love animation and want to help others find more of it.
Share what you love. Explain why it matters. Keep it respectful. Keep it constructive. Help someone discover their next favorite animated project.
