After nearly twenty years contending with
pastel trickster gods [previously],
limited-animation cryptids [previously],
absurdist undersea novelty songs,
assorted devious traps,
and most recently a 40-minute magnum opus featuring a nonbinary pangolin anthropologist, tutelary weasels, a lovelorn starfish, and a world-ending cube [previously], Charlie the Unicorn finally enjoys a moment of peace.
(Pure speculation, but the last video's references to simple animation, magical orbs, and crossing the boundary between air and sea may be a nod to one of the earliest forays into computer-animated storytelling: 1987's Stanley and Stella in: Breaking the Ice, later distributed through The Mind's Eye and YTV's Short Circutz as Love Found. Worth a watch even if it's not!)
