It's not going for a fully seamless look, but I think it also does a great job of making the characters feel like they inhabit the world. Just enough painted texture on the character cels to bring them closer to the BGs, plus it's always more believable when you see them move while preserving volume

Expressiveness that is acted out, rather than disconnected reaction shots, impressive volumetry to the drawings despite the conceptual simplicity of the designs, and a fair amount of secondary movement to breathe extra life into the world. Also, a sense of humor rooted in the animation itself!

The term has been detached from its meaning by fandom & producers, so let me point out that Pan Dorobou has (in sensibilities, finesse, and technical prowess) much more Theatrical Animation than whatever popular title you last heard described that way. Takenaka's solo KA episode #02 is a masterclass

Even the projects for young staff that Tanaka alludes to are few and far between, sometimes getting quietly canceled after their promises of platforming many up-and-coming staff. Great when they happen of course, but their limited scope can't really change the trend at the studio

Toei is massive and stable in a way that makes the studio an attractive workplace, so they'll always find & raise amazing talent. But if there's only Carefully Controlled Franchises to work on, the more daring artists eventually reach a point where feel like they gotta leave

On the left, Yuta Tanaka talking about the changes in Toei's output causing his departure in 2024. On the right, a Nijiiro Hotaru piece from 2022 where I talked about the loss of projects that act as creative escape valves, pushing brilliant people away from the studio

The ending sequence is credited to TORUKU, the stop-motion substudio at WIT founded around Mr. Molcar Tomoki Misato. They've been all over family-friendly titles like this so no surprise, but still neat to see. Also, banger song

In the vein of Rilakkuma, Pan Dorobou is one of those kids-oriented shows with more luxurious staff than most megahits. Takahiko Kyougoku leading, Chieko Nakamura as the art director, main animators like Shingo Takenaka... Seihantai's designer Mako Miyako already snapped animating episode #01

It's been tough for Precure to reach certain heights in recent years, since resources have been limited and the schedule is chronically ill. But when you get directors *this* good, it clearly motivates everyone to go above and beyond

Getting Shinpei Sawa to animate Eclair's transformation was a fun surprise. He was smuggled into HiroPre's finale thanks to a certain ex-Kyoto pal, but Toei folks must have kept tabs. Huge undertaking to animate it on the 1s while avoiding unnatural evenness, making the ballet elegance shine instead

Precure's coolness was once synonymous with Tatsuo Yamada's looseness. There were Shida eras, Hironori Tanaka's time, Shingo Fujii's time to shine, and of course lots of Itaoka. And now? I think the way people imagine Precure Kicking Ass is undoubtedly influenced by ysym

One thing that's very interesting about the action is that it confirms Precure's current sense of coolness was codified by Yuu Yoshiyama. It doesn't matter that she wasn't even around nor that the timing of the animation is unlike hers: traits of her style (easter egg impact frames!) still appear

I always feel like midseason Cures need to be particularly charismatic to work, so I'm glad Eclair is god's greatest aurafarmer

The drawings are amazing in general. Obvious synergy between the director's penchant for backlighting & zenkage and the clear, striking lines & silhouettes you get with Mikio Fujihara's supervision. The eyes make me wonder whether Akane Yano did CAD corrections too, but gorgeous result regardless

Conversely, Ruruka's fear of seeing someone she loves getting hurt/losing her identity again makes her live up to her Arcana Shadow title and return to the shade. Very basic concept but beautifully executed, the type of thing that will stick with the audience

The excellent preceding episode left Kurea just one step away from reawakening as Eclair. Yano makes sure to begin this episode with a resting bird in the shade, and after a few minutes of action that make it clear the other Precure need help, it's time to figuratively take flight toward the sun

Gaku Yano had directed & boarded the best episode of Detective Precure so far. The only person capable of beating it? Gaku Yano, back to the same leading roles for the climax of Eclair's reveal. Same elegant, evocative sensibilities but also the bombast you like to see in a Precure midseason banger

I should be CEO of Crunchyroll so I can make their shop accessible to all and sell plenty of cool blurays and stuff. Also I would re-license The iDOLM@STER (2011) and make everyone watch it for free.
