The psychological thriller Pet, animated by Geno Studio, has arrived on Amazon Prime Video with both English dub and subtitle options. The 13-episode series, which aired in Winter 2020, plunges into the dark underbelly of a criminal organization whose operatives possess the terrifying ability to delve into people's minds and alter their memories.
Adapted from the manga of the same name, Pet follows a trio of these 'pets'—Hiroki, Tsukasa, and Satoru—as they carry out dangerous assignments for their leader, Katsuragi. The narrative explores the ethical and psychological toll of their powers as they navigate the dangerous landscape of human consciousness, often blurring the lines between victim and perpetrator.
Geno Studio, known for their work on series like Golden Kamuy and Shibuya Sky, brings a distinct visual style to the anime's mature themes. The series delves into complex psychological territory, focusing on its adult cast and grappling with concepts of free will, identity, and the consequences of tampering with the mind.
