Added 2023-08-09 22:46:38 +0000 UTCBack to work, I guess! I got to enjoy a nice Saturday without doing any comic work, which was nice. Course rest days don't last forever, so off we go again!
I finally got around to watch Inu-Oh the other night. It's about a pair of kids with physical disabilities getting together in 14th century Japan who use their artistic abilities to essentially become rock stars via Noh, a classical form of Japanese theater that involves dancing.
It was directed by Masaaki Yuasa, so it has some really cool animation to it.
But as a movie... I dunno? I enjoyed it, but at the same time my mind kinda turned off frequently while watching it. First off, the movie is kind of a rock opera. Not so much singing about their predicament, but singing these Noh stories in the style of rock and roll. Here's a clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dK2ZhgbvehE
This is more on me, but a lot of the time I become blind to lyrics when listening to music. I have to hear it a bunch of times before they really set in my brain, otherwise I hear someone's voice as just another instrument. Even with the lyrics being displayed on the screen, I stopped reading them and just watched the animation while bopping to the tunes. So good stretches of time I fell off as to what was going on.
It's a good movie, for sure, but I feel I need to watch it a few times for it to click for me.

If Miranda's Boss almost skinned her over the Cosplay issue, this would undoubtedly make a vein pop out on her forehead. And on top of that, the person responsible was the "nanny" that they put on the study subject so that something like this would not happen again. The most positive thing is that Angela now sees Doris as a friend, with whom she can go out drinking and on top of that, she is now a work colleague in the modeling business. PS: Cutie Honey, great anime classic.

2023-08-10 02:52:04 +0000 UTCIt now occurs to me that Doris is about to get very public exposure...which could cause serious problems for the top secret project, even if almost nobody knows that Doris isn't a real person.
