“The Last of Us” became one of HBO’s most successful series, faithfully portraying one of the most beloved games of recent times, and refreshing it with new narratives that expanded the internal universe of the saga.
The first season of “The Last of Us” refreshed the apocalyptic genre, in addition to conquering new fans who knew nothing about the video game, and satisfying the most tenacious followers of the PlayStation franchise, which originally appeared a decade ago and which persists among the best sellers.

“The Last of Us” starred Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, and tells the story of how Joel (Pascal) must go through the desolation of the United States, which collapsed after the cordyceps fungus pandemic, which turns its infected in a kind of zombies. Joel is on a mission to take Ellie (Ramsey) to the Fireflies, a rebel group, and thus create a vaccine that could change the world in which they live.
Along the way, Ellie and Joel will have to face cannibals, apocalyptic citieshordes of infected, but they will also realize that love prevails even in the most difficult moments, and even at the cost of the fate of the world.

Yesterday, Sunday, March 12, the last episode of the first season of “The Last of Us” was broadcast, which received all kinds of praise and positive reviews, but also took the hearts of its fans with it. In the final chapter, we see how Joel does everything possible to rescue Ellie, caring nothing more than the brotherly love he feels for her, and without considering the terrible consequences of his actions.
Those who know the story in advance have even asked that the series not continue, considering what will come next, but the truth is that beyond its detractors and admirers, the series did not leave anyone indifferent. HBO has already confirmed the arrival of a second season, so all that remains is to wait if the series will continue the same path as the videogames, or if there will be a new narrative path that will explore more possibilities with which to solve the actions of our protagonists.
