Only downside is that A-1 is ruthlessly busy, and this production line already has other obligations on their back. Truly a losing heroine, aren't you Yanami

Shotaro Kitamura proved the potential he showed in individual episodes by granting Makeine a mystical sense of place you wouldn't expect from a romcom, and Honoka Yokoyama's glamour multiplied after becoming a Kappe disciple. Dream team for a series about makeup? www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECI_...
Ueno decided that setting yourself ablaze while seeking mass murderer coochie can be a beautiful search for purpose, and also that sometimes it should sound like clown slapstick. He's an evolved species
Shiboyugi, extraordinary sickos anime
I might have found the show too bleak even with its twisted beauty if it weren't for all the funny dissonance. From the hilarious soundscape, to a murder spree beginning because someone's hobby is to look at comfy loose clothes & they put her in a tight bunny outfit
The other Kyara motif that makes it blatantly Icarus-like is the depiction of her as a star that Moegi will orbit around until it burns her. Strikingly delivered through watercolor sequences for both that imagery & (fake) chapters, directed by Yui Kamura (vindicated already) bsky.app/profile/yuyu...
And yet, Moegi committing her life to Kyara is shown in the brightest, most overly uplifting sequence in the show so far. Somehow there's beauty in her accepting that she'll be swallowed by that nonchalant, mass violence that is likened to a whale
Episode #09 is the return of Ueno to co-storyboarding, turning a desperate girl latching onto a serial killer into a bleak yet beautiful Icarus story. Threads a fine line in abiding by his rules of not relishing in explicit violence & making it clear that Kyara's violence transcends the death games
Shiboyugi is unlocking levels of toxic yuri never known to exist before. It's a scientific breakthrough in the field of being fucked up. I'm witnessing the beautifully horrendous vibes in awe

More importantly, an amazing person who shaped a humane philosophy that the studio carried from its founding until now, and in the hands of his family, into the future. People who crossed paths with him remember both small acts of kindness and his ahead-of-their-time views on animation production
All my condolences about the passing of KyoAni founder & president Hideaki Hatta. No exaggeration to say that he's been one of the most important individuals in the history of this industry, especially if you consider that he also had a hand in IG's inception www.kyotoanimation.co.jp/information/...
Ruruka heard Meitantei Precure got Higher Stakes now and showed up to the preview with a Higher Stack of ice cream scoops
Even applies to the short action scene, likely by the hand of Kenji Mima. Short and simple, but satisfying timing and it also builds from their conflict and lack of communication. Butting heads (literal)
Good to see Precure getting some juice back
Relationships and someone's life may be in danger, but that won't stop the buffoonery (affectionate)
Considering what's likely to be the big twist of the series, it's comical how romantic the framing of this dispute is. Anna in particular feels like a jealous partner who's salty Mikuru hangs out with other girls
Framing so good it almost makes you root for the divorce
Excellent episode! Off the bat, Gaku Yano's direction showcases an appealing predilection for flat shading. And more importantly, it gestures towards the incoming rift between the two leads: separated into different frames, emphasizing their distance, making them lean in opposite directions
