My senior animation thesis was originally going to revolve around a boy eating some magic butter, getting super powers for a day and wreaking havoc all across the world. Rather than letting my scope drive me absolutely insane, I decided to make a Fooly Cooly rip off instead. Enjoy!

Characters

Richard Ronius (the kid):

Young and adventurous with a touch of naivety, adolescence in a nutshell. Social troubles at school and isolation from family has lead to some deep thought. Melancholy has allowed his mind to be targeted for incubation.

Brobot 1.0

With origins unknown, some sort of experimental vastly advanced tech has gone loose somewhere in Earth’s orbit. Its ai is advanced enough to show behavioral patterns similar to empathy and patience.

Big Pinch is the antagonist robot that has been hunting bro bot across the globe. When Brobot escaped into the boy’s skull to hide, the crab wasn’t too far behind and accidentally dropped into his stomach instead.
