To me, Sakou isn't totally at fault. It's true that her design is difficult for animators, but if it is that bad, why people love Act 5 so much?
Come to think of it, if they had a clear plan from the start (script, character design, animators), things would have been different a lot.
When act 12 was aired, they even had no concept how Sailor Moon meet Sailor Saturn, Diana's design was changed in the last minute...
Why didn't they just delay the first season to October 2014??? And we will have Season 1 from October - December 2014, take a 6 month break and season 2 from July 2015 - September 2015...
I think finishing episode 26 feels like escaping narrowed death for S1 - 2 staff.

I tried to edit the first group key art but got busy with work and left it there months ago lol
Spoiler: show
This looks pretty nice. Love how ready the look.

I think they had communication problems and I can't really think of any other way for them to kind of screw it up the way they did. It seem like they know what they wanted to do but at the same time they didn't know what they wanted to do. Naoko being the Chief supervisor would have had to approve something I would assume but whatever communication they had wasn't directly through her. Seems to me like they jumped in a deep river without a life jacket with this project at the beginning.

I must say... I like it. I mean it. Especially the way it's drawn; the proportions, the body and the perspective. Much better than what Sakou could do.

This makes justice to the eternal fuku that I always disliked. Here the color balance is good, the sleeves transparency makes them less visible and she is quite elegant. Kinda wish I could buy this stamp album tbh.

And thankfully they dropped the MOE body proportions.

I‘m in. What will you watch?

Edit: Terrible face, terrible torso, terrible skirts.

Sorry for the late reply, I hardly go through my notifications from my phone. Anywho.

The one thing I don't like and this is personal, it's how emotionless they look. The original Crystal design gave them big eyes and this one improved the eyes but they all just have these blank stares..lol

As far as film of the director. I want to start with thing like the episode of Thundetcats titled Curse of Ratilla. I can get a good idea of how he directs from that episode. Episode 11 and 20.

He also directed episode 12 of Kill La Kill.

2 episodes of Iron Man and was animation director of Huggato Pretty Cure.

Not a lot so this will have to be his really major project to prove himself. How I feel about this are mixed. Fresh new perspective but what will he be allowed to do and most importantly, why would Toei hire a director with very little credit to direct the final closing of the series? Lol. I'm not saying he will be bad but....I'll just see how he structured things in these mentioned shows.


Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: Propose-hen is near movie length but I don't think it's action and is a romance but I'm not certain yet.
