Last poster before threadlock gets a cookie (cookie thread (Part 7)) (Part 8)

It’s on my watchlist, meaning I’ll get around to it ~eventually

Didn’t know it had time travel though.

It really just comes down to, “Did you always plan the time travel from the get-go?” because when done right, it can recontextualize a good chunk of the story.
Attack on Titan did this really well, as did The Owl House.

Its entire thing is about time travel and exploring four families across multiple different time periods as they keep hopping back and forth between said periods.

I’d personally call it the greatest time travel show of all time.

a good time travel plot doesn’t feel like a time travel plot

Even then. There was a book I read whose twist was time travel, and it took the story in a very different direction that really kinda soiled the good stuff it was doing in parallel lol

I don’t remember seeing time travel in The Twilight Zone?
Probably just a bad rand on your end.

The Twilight Zone is a horror anthology series.
Twilight is the vampire love triangle one.

Wasn’t that introduced literally in episode 1?

Same applies to Project Almanac, except the characters there got their happy ending.
–which I love/hate. I probably love it more than I hate it. I hate it because “changing any past in any way is bad”, but also: “At least the characters learned something from it.”

The Boy and the Heron (2023) also has time travel, except there the characters got their memories erased at the end, turning the entire show’s adventure into nothing. It all might as well have been “just a dream”.
I think I’m more angry at that than I’m angry at Project Almanac.

Altough before that they try to stop a few apocalypse, (some of them was literrally caused by said time travel)
