What is Unicorn: Warriors Eternal about?

Unicorn: Warriors Eternal is an American animated fantasy television series that combines elements of mythology and adventure within a dark industrial London setting. The series, created by celebrated animator Genndy Tartakovsky, unfolds as a group of ancient heroes known as the Unicorn are inadvertently brought back to life in the bodies of teenagers, a stark contrast to the seasoned adult hosts they once embodied. With dark, atmospheric visuals, the show is distinctive for its artistic inspiration drawn from the legendary works of Osamu Tezuka and Max Fleischer, giving it a nostalgic yet fresh visual appeal that resonates with both long-time animation fans and newcomers. The narrative of Unicorn: Warriors Eternal ventures into themes of destiny, camaraderie, and the struggle against looming darkness, as these reincarnated warriors navigate the complexities of their newfound youth while attempting to thwart a sinister force threatening their world. Voiced by a talented cast including Hazel Doupe, Demari Hunte, and Tom Milligan, the series is not only an action-packed tale of heroism but also a deeper exploration of identity and morality. Developed by Tartakovsky during his tenure at Cartoon Network Studios, the show's journey to the screen spanned nearly two decades, culminating in a partnership with Cartoon Network and HBO Max. Animation production was undertaken internationally, featuring contributions from Studio La Cachette in France and Studio Zmei in Bulgaria. Initially intended for Cartoon Network's ACME Night, the series found its home within the more adult-oriented context of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programming block, allowing for a more mature storytelling approach.

The first episode of Unicorn: Warriors Eternal aired on May 05, 2023 and the most recent episode to air was on June 30, 2023.
