Whenever a "What was your first anime" poll is making its rounds, why isn’t Speed Racer ever mentioned by anyone at all, ever? It played on TV even up to the 90s, and throughout the 90s and 00s if any Western cartoon made an "anime reference" joke, it was almost guaranteed to be a "Speed Racer reference" joke.
But even people looking back on their nostalgic anime habits today completely exclude it from conversation. 🤔
Yo. Excited to watch the new LA YYH and absolutely loving it if only on the first episode. Considering how fast it's moving compared to the anime I used to sneak out of my room and watch on too toonami /adult swim on cartoon network I'd say if I get yusukes greeting to kuwabara of "greetings from hell guys." I'm going to lose my mind! My boys!! Yu Yu Hakusho BABY!!!
i am not immune to stories in which characters who have endured harsh, empty existences become absolutely transformed by someone’s sincere love for them and learn to live
the periodic urge to rewatch Wolf’s rain is back (it was the first anime i consciously watched as a pre teen back in 2007-2008) (consciously in the sense that it wasn’t saturday morning pokémon reruns but something i consciously sought out episodes of on youtube)
i’m spending today thinking about how saber toothed cats ALSO probably had a potato form. how they also had a stage where they were fat little babies with very triangle tails and tiny squeaky voices. how they also probably play wrestled and failed badly at calculating jumps.
i’m going to fistfight god for killing them off before i could personally see fat potato saber kittens
Video game I saw in a dream. It was in this low poly style like an older video game. You play as this character I think was meant to be a lamb, or maybe a weird mix of a lamb a mouse and a rabbit, (while not really looking like any of those things) and you’re running away from a wolf. Your objective is to last as long as possible before the wolf catches and eats you.
The house you’re running in is endless and bizarrely put together like most building interiors in dreams are (like the infinite toilet dream dimension on Reddit lol) the layout of the house is pretty detailed, you can stop and hide in places like closets or bins while the wolf looks for you, you can go up and down stairs and into rooms etc.
You never actually know where the wolf is or how close it is to you until it appears in your line of sight, it makes no noise and the game gives you no way of knowing where it is, and it’s pretty unpredictable it doesnt move at a consistent pace. When the wolf catches you there’s an animation showing it eating your character
