I respect matsumoto because he is one of the most important artists in the history of manga and anime but he only knew how to draw two types of character and those two types were these:

I want to thank the people commenting that he actually had around half a dozen more character designs than what this tweet is implying. I never watched or read any work of his so I didn't know that I thought he literally only did these two. I have been educated 👏👏👏

a decade of feeling creeped out by ikuhara for no discernible reason except he and his shows just gave me extremely creepy vibes vindicated by reading a woman say he tried to make out with her when she was 15 (and in anthy cosplay!) in an anime con in 2000. My gut is never wrong

Lucrecia Martel on TV shows: with the exception of twin peaks they are a regression of the medium and the more dangerous ones are the best ones because they have replaced independent films with information-charged dialogues and conservative narratives

small correction to the thread but michiko to hatchin wasn't produced or directed by watanabe, he was only the music producer in the show. the creator/director is sayo yamamoto, she is something of a student of him and they worked together in samurai champloo

a bunch of mediocre YA and franchise related authors were the cause of this, the writers of the worst literature on planet earth, they get paid by disney to write star wars novels and then believe people might steal their horrible books
Internet Archive is ending its program of offering free, unrestricted copies of e-books because of a lawsuit from publishers, which said lending out books without compensation for authors or publishing houses was “willful mass copyright infringement”

I honestly believe most of the conversations about "the culture" I see endlessly here are fake. new generations aren't more puritanical and previous ones weren't more accepting of sexual stuff in art. criticism hasn't gotten worse. "media literacy" has never been a thing

netflix is awful but it's worth mentioning how dull realism is deeply ingrained in people's tastes. Look at the hate directors like snyder and the wachowski sisters get for getting formally interesting when adapting comics
Netflix is really committed to adapting scenes from comics/animation in the dullest way possible

An interesting part of the reception of foreign cinema is that if you haven't lived or read a ton about a particular place you are getting culturally contextless images. I think that helps the reception of it within cinephile circles, it lets the formalism flow better
