Junkyard King | Chapter 2 | The New Guy

Artie gets a new ally and learns that training with X-Cal attracts very big problems. At fifteen minutes, Chapter 2 is the longest Junkyard King installment yet, and the first credited to ODD KID, the studio banner Henry Daubrez now releases the series under.

The progression across three chapters is AI filmmaking in 2026 in miniature. Chapter 0 took four weeks and $1,000 in Seedance credits. Chapter 1 grew from a tool experiment into a nine-minute episode. Chapter 2 is simply a new episode of a show, and a creator no longer asking whether serialized AI animation is possible, but how many stories the world can hold.
