Abstract Children's socialization has been transcended from the monopoly of institutions such as school and family. These institutions have found companions and possibly competitors. Media and their wide and long forms are among the most important and animation is perhaps the most important for children. The reality of death is one of the challenges of children's socialization. In recent years various animations have been made about death. Each animation has its own symbolic system depending on the worldview, cultural origin and goals of its producers. This study aims to investigate the representation of death and the world after death in Coco's animation and reflect on its implications for the religious education of Muslim (Shia) children. This review was done using semiotics. Using semiotics in the four areas of death representation, the world after death, mechanisms of facing death and the right to choose death, this research has extracted and formulated the symbolic system governing Coco's animation, and its implications have been investigated.
