Sci-fi as a genre blends beautifully with other subgenres, such as coming-of-age stories, which can lead to some incredible and innovative storytelling. While sci-fi is often seen as a form of storytelling that pushes the boundaries of reality, and imagines what life could look like in the future, coming-of-age stories are typically grounded in reality. They draw in younger viewers, with a story that sees the protagonists advance from one phase of childhood into the next.
