How About Simplifying Steem With Animated Cartoons?
At the time of Big Bang, our Universe was a very tiny creation. But now it has expanded infinitely large. Simiarly our Steemiverse was very simple and easy to grasp in the beginning. But with time, Steemiverse is expanding limitlessly with several tools, communities, dApps, side-chains, tokens, forks and who knows what!

Although explaining Steem to crypto community wasn't too difficult but we used to struggle explaining about Steem to common, non-crypto people even in the early days. But now it's growing and taking a complex form that even a nerd now takes time to grasp this whole ecosystem. 

Many people are overwhelmed by the various apps, communities and dApps built on top of Steem blockchain. Even existing Steemians often get confused about the various rules and systems of various communities like SteemHunt, Palnet etc. As if just keeping up with Steem wasn't enough, we now have a hell lot of tokens on Steem-Engine. Earlier only SBD was used for bidbot transactions, then STEEM got acceptance too. And now, even Steem Engine tokens like PAL and DEC are being accepted by some upvote bots. 

What if you had joined Steem blockchain through some front-end like Palnet, SteemHunt or SteemMonsters, would it be any easy to understand the whole Steem ecosystem? 

To me, it looks like things are getting too easier to onboard through various front-ends but simultaneously it's getting a bit complicated to understand the Steem ecosystem after onboarding on it.

So I was thinking, wouldn't it be easier to explain all these nitty-gritties in an interesting and entertaining way through some anime cartoon characters? Serving things in light entertaining form makes them more interesting and appealing to non-techies and general public. 

This reminds me of the anime series by [Bitcoin and Friends](https://www.btcandfriends.com/). I love how beautifully they are projecting and explaining about Bitcoin through several episodes (though only two have completed by now).

when Bitcoins are produced (though vomiting) on finding a new block</sub></center>

They are collecting funds through sponsors and crowdfunding. But at Steem, we can probably use the upcoming SPS (Steem Proposal System) for such works too. Of course, I don't have any skill sets for such a job but I'm just floating around an idea here. So that anyone interested can take it and model something on it to come up with. 

If not an animated show, we can also start with some cartoon / comic series on it and then take it from there. The point is to continue explaining about the ever expanding Steem ecosystem in an interesting and simplistic way to a noob.
