Let us suppose that the "average" horse would have equal proportions of all these parts. The degree to which each part in this poll deviates from the "average" size (20% of total) will determine how large or small that part of our horse will be (i.e a horse with only 10% in Legs will have legs half the size of the average horse).

I will draw a picture of the horse we make!

I don’t mean to criticize General Zenobia but wouldn’t it just be less complicated to, I don’t know, throw small bombs at people?

Hello lovely people! It has been a race between a handful of paintings in various fandoms to see which would be finished first and, driven by its weekly presence, Gotchard won. I had considered not finishing this as the plot it is referencing concluded months ago. But I had feelings at the time I began this piece and my love of those episodes (and Sabimaru, who is my fav) persists. So, please enjoy this belated tribute to the first Kamen Rider Dread.

Detail shots below.

Oh yeah, that Kamen Rider series where the main rider transforms using a combination of items directly connected to man-made alchemy creatures, one of which is his companion, and he fights mummy-like monsters that the villain makes from human emotions. That series.

that xkcd about experts wildly overestimating a normie's familiarity with [subject] but it's tokusatsu fans about monsterfucking.

"the average person would probably only be willing to fuck the joker undead and escape and/or enter's monster form"

"and redyue, of course"

So, apparently, crucifixion in Super Sentai is a trope going all the way back to the first series, Himitsu Sentai GoRanger. This did not get started with Sentai though as Crucifixion in Toku dates back to at least Ultraseven* in 1967:

Perhaps even more (in)famously is the scene from 1972′s Ultraman Ace where the Ultra Brothers are crucified on the Planet Gologotha as a trap for the new hero.

This scene is actually so famous in the series that it got a scene set release in the Ultra Act toyline from Bandai.

I think this got started because the creator of Ultraman and Ultraseven, Eiji Tsuburaya, was a Catholic who liked to infuse Christian religious imagery into his work.  The classic Ultraman specium beam pose is supposed to resemble a cross,  the ultimate ward against evil.

The actual meaning of crucifixion was apparently lost and seen as just a means of restraint before an execution.  Or maybe the meaning was stripped away and the original intent as an archaic, barbaric form of execution restored.

The Super Sentai series above are (in order of the pictures):

Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger

Himitsu Sentai GoRanger

J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai

Choudenshi Bioman

Hikari Sentai Maskman

Choujin Sentai Jetman

and then two instances from:

Hyakujyuu Sentai GaoRanger

*The episode of Ultraseven featuring the hero’s crucifixion was accidentally aired (in dubbed form) by TNT in the United States on Easter Sunday, an act that upset several of their viewers considering TNT is based in the Conservative Southern city of Atlanta.

Hi! Huge fan of your godzilla animations! I was wondering if you had plans to post the intercut monster info blurbs on their own? They're always so fun to read, and I'd love to see them collected together.

I can share em on here :]
