What We Think

PLUTO stands out as a rarity in modern animation, reserved, thoughtful, and generally non-woke. The narrative prioritizes character depth and classic themes rather than ideological posturing. Those tired of Hollywood’s usual soapboxing may actually find themselves pleasantly surprised.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

PLUTO largely preserves its narrative integrity by focusing on classic themes like morality, loss, and artificial intelligence. The story centers around deep character studies and moral dilemmas rather than box-ticking for identity politics. Representation exists, but it feels organic and not shoehorned in for ideological purposes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The series thoughtfully explores human nature, grief, and empathy, it doesn’t take cheap shots at religion, family, or masculinity. If anything, it reflects universal struggles and virtues. There’s very little cultural revisionism or overtly modern ideological rewriting of classic values at play here.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

PLUTO presents some critiques of prejudice and violence, but it still gives space for multiple philosophical perspectives. While its anti-war message is clear, dissenting points of view and moral ambiguity are allowed to breathe, keeping things from becoming an echo chamber.
