Original Urban-Fantasy Anime Project

Parallel Check-In™

In San Francisco’s Japantown, a family-run hotel serves travelers from parallel worlds—where every guest must check in, find their Anchor, and make their way home.

Parallel Check-In: an original anime series in development

Parallel Check-In is an original animated series created by Will D. Huggins Jr. Explore the story, meet the guests and guardians, and discover the San Francisco locations surrounding the hotel. Learn about Anchors, crossings, Parallax, and the rules that keep Sanctuary safe.

The site includes concept films, character art, a pitch deck, and a pilot script reader. Both pilot scripts are available to read without signing in. The scripts are human-written; AI-assisted visual samples are early development and pitch materials as the project moves toward animated production.
