Ranking Every Episode From Love, Death And Robots

2. Good Hunting

Lucky 13 Love Death Robots
Netflix

The only short on the list that feels like it could confidently carry a full series order. Good Hunting is a rich and well developed fantasy steampunk world with interesting concepts and characters that are explored excellently in the 17 minute runtime.

Liang, the son of a spirit hunter, forms a connection with Yan, a young shape-shifting magical creature, in China. As technology and British colonialism comes to their country, the magic around them dies out including Yan's powers and abilities. To say what comes next would only spoil the best narrative of the collection.

The world of Good Hunting is dark and fleshed out and it explores compelling themes with incredible skill. The animation is gorgeously drawn and although the action is exciting and well animated, it is the automata of the steampunk world that provides the best visuals of the short. Good Hunting excels as the best storyline of all the shorts.
