// origin

When I was 7, two things happened that shaped everything: a legendary racing driver’s sudden death, and my discovery of anime. I didn’t know it then, but both would fuse into this project twenty years later. Thunder Prince is an original animated world — built with limited resources, unlimited obsession, and a conviction that you don’t need a big budget to tell a story that matters.
