Sonny Boy felt like a once in a lifetime blank check for Shingo Natsume. His new original movie with seemingly just as much freedom makes me want to be greedier and think that this can genuinely be his path forward. Maybe combined with more standard side projects, but focused on doing His Thing

Feature-length personal film conceived, directed, designed, supervised, and with art & color design, compositing, music, and editing by one person: Ryuya Suzuki. Can tell at a glance why Kenji Iwaisawa would act as a producer for this (now give us his own films too) www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fkq5...

Wrote about the evolution of Kenji Nakamura as one of the most radical, avantgarde voices in commercial animation - and how 15 years ago Kuuchuu Buranko / Trapeze changed his mindset for a more socially-conscious approach that still felt in his new works blog.sakugabooru.com/2024/12/30/t...

Staff memo for Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX because it's a ridiculous team:
-Kazuya Tsurumaki directing it of course! Free from the specter of Eva, but not truly because he'll never be - just listen to the song
-On that note, Anno is already listed as a scriptwriter, storyboarder, and concept artist

I decided my first post here should be kino, so I'm posting Ikarashi's Gridman illustration.
