The fusion of animation and fantasy can be a vibrant and exhilarating gateway to a whole new world. But when animated fantasy narratives take a darker and edgier turn, the experience becomes even more gripping. These dark and bold narratives on Netflix have a knack for taking viewers through a whirlwind of emotions, from horror and dread to hope and triumph. Not to forget their morally ambiguous characters, their subversion of tropes, rich world-building created through artistic and visual flair and presence of darker themes that make them seem surreal and grim.
