Holes Between Worlds — Original Animated Series

Same park. Different worlds.

Four kids find a hole under the playground slide. Only children can see it — and on the other side, a world is asking for help.

The four children looking down into an open Hole

An original animated franchise, already in production

Leo, Mia, Nico and Luna live on the same street and go to the same school. Then they start seeing the Holes: openings that adults walk straight over, that lead to worlds coming apart. Every world they cross into needs something only children would think to give it.

Behind the Holes is the World Network — five Prime Worlds, five Prime Keys, and a figure called Veyl who was once a boy like them, and who is now convinced the only way to save the Network is to close it.

Same park, different worlds

The show's engine is a promise a child understands immediately: the ordinary place you walk past every day has another side. Each episode opens somewhere familiar and ends somewhere impossible.

How it gets made

  • Character consistency is production-controlledReference sheets and a locked visual workflow guide each character's face, build and wardrobe across production.
  • Built for the format that pays firstThree-minute episodes on YouTube, with vertical cutdowns from the same masters. Short enough to publish weekly, long enough to tell a full arc.
  • Season one is writtenTwelve episodes, series bible, world mythology and a five-season arc already mapped rather than improvised.
  • A franchise, not a shortFive Prime Worlds, a locked cast, and a villain with an origin — designed from day one for merchandise, publishing and licensing.
