Perhaps the most political anime I`ve ever seen. Clearly anti-capitalist, antifascist, anti-corporation. Every story is about how consumerism destroys planets and sucks the souls (& sometimes lives) from people living there. Stories of miserable people always wanting more & more.

Watched the 1989 "Karura Mau" anime movie completely coincidentally. (Thanks YouTube algorithm)
It was a totally average 80`s anime but *wow* did it make clear how tame current anime is. *Nothing* like what it used to be. I mean look at this stuff. haha. (I miss this)

Speaking of anime with "1 really intriguing episode that never continued past that, isn`t that a shame" has anyone seen the Nakoruru (Samurai Showdown spinoff) OVA episode with character designs by Yasuomi Umetsu. I waited and waited for a continuation ... but it never came. 😢

Watched the "Dragon Quest: Your Story" 3DCG film. Man, I have so much to say. The 3D animation and art direction is absolutely beautiful. It may be the best CG film Japan has ever produced. Also Dragon Quest 5 is my favorite in the series, even beating out XI. A perfect choice.

@pinkAlpaca 鬼滅の刃と比べったら…北斗の拳はの方が遥かにviolentでグロイです😅笑

@ochimusha108 I think ONE PIECE offers the widest amount of body types, face types, out-right-style than almost any Japanese anime/manga out there. (Even those that don’t use “normal” anime faces like Taiyō Matsumoto tend to stick w/ there own style, not have many styles in the same manga.)

Drew a quick illustration to commemorate the next episode of One Piece I worked on, but can`t post it yet cause the character Luffy`s fighting here hasn`t been shown in the anime yet. Can`t reveal his color palette or I`ll get in trouble😅(also the ep`s still a couple months off)

Recently watched the 1st season of the Fire Force anime. David Production did a great job with the art/animation. Cool fight scenes!
Also, the plot was so jaw-droppingly nonsensical with character abilities & sex-jokes so random... that I literally don`t even know what I watched.

For the record though, as much as I love the Dragonball series, I think the movies have been largely terrible. Here`s my DB movie break-down:
DBZ movie 12: A+ (One of the best Gekijouban ever)
DBZ movies 13 & 9: B-
Super Broly: C
Everything else, DB & GT movies included: D-/F+

In conclusion: DB Super was... fine. Nothing like the amazing DBZ, and not fun/adventurous like original DB... but probably better than GT. The later episodes tried to make something great, but couldn`t totally fix problems put in place by early episodes. Overall it was... "OK".
