The complete third chapter was released on October 7. The creator-linked 4K YouTube upload plays for 16:04; the shorter X upload is not used to set its runtime. Artie, Kai and Socket cross into Avalon looking for Emily, encountering an unexpectedly beautiful world whose appearances cannot be trusted.

Why this film matters

This is a sustained episode in an original animated story, with recurring characters, a search to advance and a world whose beauty creates dramatic uncertainty. That makes it a useful test of character continuity and pacing across scenes, rather than a collection of attractive shots. The early-1990s setting, VHS-era mysteries and samurai-film interests give Artie a specific imaginative life.

Daubrez identifies himself as the series creator and ODD KID as producer. His chapter-specific account describes a tiny team working in under a month. That is an attributed production account, not an audited budget or evidence that all work was automated. The journal checked the original description and playback; it does not claim a full critical viewing.

Production evidence

References to Chris Miller and Phil Lord are thanks for inspiration, not crew credits. Exact generation models, model versions, a complete credit roll and a verified budget remain unknown.
