Every Part of Us Gets Taken With the Last of Us

The Fandom of The Last of Us has increased tenfold thanks to its ongoing series. The games have already won a number of fans and have already earned their share of praise. What viewers of this series were not aware of was the fact that it is not as easygoing as people thought it would be.

It turned out that The Last of Us is a series way too real. Its characters do not miraculously escape their fates. It would not be too far-fetched to say that with its sad conclusion, and its shocking cold opens, this series takes away a part of us.
