BLISS: Beyond the Edge of Time
A TAIWANESE ANIMATED ANTHOLOGY SERIES
Six Stories · Six Futures · Six Codes to the Soul
When Love, Death & Robots
meets the I Ching
A poignant, unflinching look into the future, where the cold precision of technology collides with the fragile essence of humanity. Six distinct stories unfold — each tracing a different path, yet converging on a singular question: in a future when memories can be erased, identities rewritten, and fate engineered, what remains truly ours?
At the edge of civilization, love lingers in the void, freedom demands its price, and companionship becomes a quiet defiance against oblivion. Sci-fi is not merely a vision of what's to come — it is a mirror reflecting who we are, and who we might become.
THE I CHING CONNECTION
Inspired by the six hexagrams of the I Ching, BLISS explores fate, identity, and choice in a future universe — reimagining humanity's relationship with the cosmos through the lens of ancient Eastern philosophy.
