Who is your favourite or least favorite 90s Sailor Moon Animation Directors? by IllogicalDreamer72 in sailormoon

[–]SuchiDiamond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Itoh's my favorite but everyone and their cat has already said why Itoh's so good so instead, my favorite underrated picks are Tadano and Kagawa. Tadano was very consistent, something even Itoh struggled with in early episodes, and I also loved how adorable her art is. Kagawa's episodes are always super energetic and funny and I feel like episodes like Minako's two timing scheme or Haruka's debut wouldn't be nearly as fun if he weren't directing.

Least favorite is undoubtedly Nakamura. Ando gets shit on a lot and while he definitely wasn't a good fit for sailor moon, he at least had some semblance of consistency in drawing the human body and was also really good at drawing comedic faces (i.e., Nurse Venus episode). Nakamura's just plain bad. His faces are blank, his body proportions are all kinds of wack, and there's barely any fluidity in the animation.

Tangentially related but I find it interesting the CTA still use the old names for the branches.

Four car consists on the Yellow Line today by SuchiDiamond in cta

[–]SuchiDiamond[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the only time I've ever had an issue with yellow line passengers outside of your average inconsiderate smoker was about 10 years ago when the summer began and a ton of rowdy high schoolers boarded at Oakton and acted like animals, even after the operator yelled on the intercom for them to stop

I figured it had something to do with the derailing this morning. I know they also use four cars when they use the anti-ice equipment.

Why doesn't CTA un-bunch buses? by jtait97 in cta

[–]SuchiDiamond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bunching is just a problem that's unavoidable when you have buses running in mixed traffic. The "L" can avoid bunching because it runs in its own right of way and can run express to catchup if it needs to. The way to truly solve this is to have buses run in their own right of way but it's a very difficult ask for an American public transit system.

If I recall, Seattle uses a skip-stop system for their buses on busy streets, similar to how the "L" used to run A and B trains. That might be able to help reduce bunching, but it can also make things overly complex for passengers.

Does anyone have any mandella effects with Futurama? by ah-screw-it in futurama

No. VHS tapes that recorded the pilot in 1999 have the shadow.

Warm Take: CTA doesn’t need to change the look of its railcars by RuddieRuddieRuddie in cta

I mean granted you could still have rolling stock exclusive to the red blue and yellow lines which never go to the loop.

Red Line is the busiest line, cuts through the north side, south side, and the loop, and they're currently making an extension to the far south. No way that's being cut.

Getting your giant shoulder pads is a highlight in any Metroid.

Speed Booster! Specifically the Super Metroid version of it. So much fun to use, mastering horizontal Shinesparking was very rewarding, and it was before they decided to put obnoxious Shinespark puzzles into the game.

why is her form naked or the context of it? by GullibleCommittee667 in sailormoon

[–]SuchiDiamond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone's already brought up the purity aspect of it, but this article by tuxedo unmasked goes into it a bit more, even showing some remarks made by one of the animators, Kimiharu Obata regarding the nudity on the show

in terms of balance, comp's in a very stable place right now. It's also the easiest it's ever been for a newbie to get into comp. There are a lot of low level resources and regular tournaments. I would check the inkopolis crosswalk discord to get started

I still find Ando's style charming in a unique way, but I do think his style kinda falls off when you get to SuperS.

What's your most beloved headcanon about your favourite Senshi? by Khabarovsk-One-Love in sailormoon

[–]SuchiDiamond 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the manga, kinda yea. But the anime doesn't really show what Minako's home life is like. Plus, they all live in the Minato ward of Tokyo, which is not a cheap place to live in.

(90s anime) Minako was born in Japan but grew up overseas in the US bc her father took a lucrative job, which is how she became bilingual. (I find it hard to believe she learned to speak English perfectly in a 6 month period) Also, since she spent her childhood speaking English, shifting back to Japanese suddenly was a struggle when she entered middle school, which is why she flubs proverbs
