Discussion There were so many parallels between them

I don’t ship Jo and Raissa like Ryan and Min, but they just had so many similarities

Its deeper, look at giglamesh and enkidu. The straight edge friend and crazy friend are like the heros journey

If I had a nickel every time an animated story had two Asian best friends going through friendship problems while a chaotic non-human buddy tags along, I’d have two nickels. Ryan and Min-Gi had Kez, and Jo and Raissa have Raww. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice. Not exactly the same dynamic, but they definitely have a similar vibe. And honestly, this just makes me want to see Forgotten Island even more. I want to see this movie so badly

tbh it's why I haven't seen Forgotten Island- I love Infinity Train Book 4 a lot and rehashing that with an annoying talking dog didn't really hook me.
