The PlayStation Boycott I swear would be the easiest boycott in history. The console is already over $900, it has like 3 games and two of them are remastered versions of The Last of Us. Not enough exclusives to justify a buy, they could dangle Bloodborne 2 in my face and I wouldn’t buy it.

Man I forgot how great the character design in My Hero Academia is. It feels like the author throwing every OC idea together all at once. There’s a giant gal, a guy that’s got a Crow head, a pink gal, a gal that’s just hands, a guy made of wood. So good.

This was one of my biggest worries about studios adding a lot of anime influences in their works, and it seems I was right on the money. I’m all for anime too, but it shouldn’t be the STANDARD for modern western animation pipelines.

I love how the previous generations of storyboard artists were allowed to draw silly cartoon characters on flat wobbly backgrounds, but now we have to learn how to draw the most realistic anime proportions and perspective ever to even be considered for a job
