![]() ![]() ![]() This show has some of the most creative building, character, and creature design that I have ever seen, as well as surprisingly deep and intricate lore for it’s universe. The thing that caught me off guard the most about Wakfu as a children’s show, even among all of the other things that it does remarkably well, was it’s truly unique and skillful world-building and art-design. But if you left your curiosity at that then you’d be doing yourself, as well as this cartoon, a massive disservice, because in my and many other people’s humble opinions, Wakfu is an underrated epic adventure story, as well as one of the best cartoons ever released. If you were to just casually glance at this show from a distance, you could be forgiven for writing it off as some silly-looking action cartoon for children, barring the occasional adult joke snuck in here and there. Wakfu takes place in “The World of Twelve”, and follows the quest of a magical young boy named Yugo and his friends as they the search for answers regarding Yugo’s mysterious past and missing family. It began airing on French television in October of 2008, currently has two seasons as well as a short OVA (original video animation) series, and a third season is supposedly coming to Netflix later this year. Wakfu is an animated show based off of an online video game of the same name and, despite it’s relative obscurity, this show has been aired on-again, off-again, and on-again for almost nine years now. Unless you are already a devoted follower of cult animation, and have a great appreciation for more mature children’s programming, then it’s unlikely that you’ve ever heard of Wakfu. ![]()
