This is truly Genndy's masterpiece. Brutal and raw yet so human

[@MattDraper]

Loved this! I’ve been meaning to watch Primal but this bumped it high up on my to-watch list. Fantastic work!

[@ForEveryKindofGeek]

Thanks so much, Matt! For what it's worth I think this is totally up your alley, Genndy's definitely got a deep love of pulp fantasies and Primal feels like the Conan stories distilled to their best parts. It's one of my favorite pieces of animation from the past decade.

Man, how did you get those character design images in high quality is beyond me but i’m so glad you put those in Amazing job

[@ForEveryKindofGeek]

They're all part of Adult Swim's comic con panel! They had this great deep dive on all the elements of the show, Genndy even shared some of his earlier concepts.

Great video this was one of my favorite shows when it was airing so I'm glad you're putting a spotlight on it! What was your favorite episode?

[@ForEveryKindofGeek]

Thanks! Finding a favorite is tricky, Rage of the Ape Men's action is pretty amazing but I also love the emotional power of something like Coven of the Damned. Also, might be a hot take, but I really like how The Primal Theory comes in the middle of season 2 like a bit of a funny breather.

Great review!

Thanks!

Excellent review I love genndys work and primal is one of his masterpieces

[@ForEveryKindofGeek]

Maybe my favorite of his works since Samurai Jack. Unicorn looks really cool, but it's going to be hard to match the sheer inventiveness of Primal and its visual storytelling.

This is such a good swries. Like you say, it's not without its faults. It maybe could've used some more episodes to flesh out the backend of seasom 2 imo, but it's all so unique and engaging. The best way I could pitch this is calling it "prehistoric Conan." Don't even tell people that it has very little dialog because so many people have become accustomed to having a story spoonfed to them with excessive exposition. This is one of the best and most accessible pieces of media to teach people how to understand and enjoy purely visual storytelling.

I love Primal! It was so beautiful but very tragic masterpiece of animation.

[@SnapperChannel]

I got to get back to this show.

[@ForEveryKindofGeek]

I'd definitely recommend it. I'm always down for anything Genndy's involved with.

We need more adult animations that isn’t comedy.
