So I just came across this cool show on a twitter thread that the person who pitched it made, explaining why they were denied serialization.
Long story short, because of other people abusing diversity and using it as a marketing tool to sell hollow content that has no redeeming qualities outside of diversity, there was a reaction against such material, so now the studio is skittish about giving anything diverse a chance, hurting this animator and her seemingly-awesome project. They don't say who it is but by the look of the show, I believe they're talking about crunchyroll and that guardian spice fiasco of a couple years back. Ah well, if anything it's good to know that people are listening.
Here's the whole story if you wanna see more:
Thoughts? Personally, I find that show pretty cool, it gives me that classic teen titans or avatar vibe, like american made anime. Very sad it didn't get a chance when other much less cool-looking stuff do.
