Title: After Autumn Rain, Nanzenji, Kyoto (1951) Artist: Hasui Kawase www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/... #ShinHanga #Art #NoAi #Showa #Autumn #HasuiKawase #Nanzenji #Kyoto #Japan

A view of the Sanmon gate at Kyoto's Nanzenji Temple. The tall multi-level gate dominates the center of the image; the doors are open, and visitors to the temple are passing through, walking away from the viewer. Puddles on the ground hint at a recent rain, and leaves on the trees on either side of the image are rusting red and orange with the season. Above, the sky is blue and clear.

An autumn scene in the mountains of Japan. Trees in various shades of green, yellow, orange and brown stand around the shore of a small alpine lake; beyond, tall stony mountains dominate the horizon, while above, the sky is an uninterrupted blue. The calm surface of the lake reflects the scene.

By Chapter 2 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, we're told the Peach Garden Oath Brothers (Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, & Guan Yu) "lived in harmony, eating at the same table and sleeping on the same couch." There was only one bed, a literary tradition far more ancient than most would suppose.

Title: Signal (1962) Artist: Kiyoshi Saito www.wcel.org/blog/5-reaso... #ShinHanga #Art #SosakuHanga #NoAi #Showa #KiyoshiSaito #Japan #Mood

Railway tracks depicted as slim white lines intersect and weave amongst each other across dirty gray earth. In the foreground, a signal light is showing us a steady red. Beyond, overlapping utility poles and industrial gridwork structures screen the shadowy shapes of blocky city buildings. Everything is still: there are no trains on the tracks, no life in the image, no lights in the distant buildings. Above, the sky is dingy and dark.

I strongly feel that Legion is one of the greatest kaiju designs of the past thirty years and that Gamera 2: Attack of Legion is mandatory viewing for anyone with even a passing interest in the genre.

A bright autumn day on a farm in Ibaraki Prefecture. In the foreground, a pair of figures in broad straw hats stoop and work at some unseen task; nearby, harvested sheaves of rice are hung up on simple wooden racks to dry. Beyond, the farm house and buildings are tucked in beneath tall trees, their leaves rusting red with the season. Above, tattered white clouds slide across a bright blue sky.

Rice is harvested on a farm in rural Japan. A series of terraced rice fields travel from the foreground to the background of the image, like rolling waves. Golden sheaves of rice have been hung up to dry on wooden racks, while further on, figures continue the harvest. At the far end of the image, thatched-roof farmhouses stand close together, tucked in beneath tall dark trees.

An evening view of the Sakurada-mon gate, part of the Imperial Palace, in Chiyoda, Tokyo. Impressive-looking stone foundations support this entrance to the palace; beyond the gate, tall, wiry trees reach up into the darkening sky. In the foreground, the waters of the castle moat are still, reflecting the scene.

A bright full moon illuminates Amagasaki harbour at night. The surface of the water is calm, reflecting the moonlight; on our left, a lone figure sits next to a small fire in a drum, keeping themselves warm. There and across the bay, industrial buildings crowd close to the water's edge. Above, the sky is starless, with only the yellow-tinted moon to share its light.

Heavy mist and fog settle across a quiet river. A pair of pilots, one fore and one aft, steer a small boat along the water; trees, reduced to silhouettes in the milky light, crowd close to the riverbanks.

A dark, rainy evening at Tokyo's Sengaku-ji. A female figure and a child approach the temple; she is carrying a bamboo umbrella over their heads with one hand, and a lit lantern suspended from a pole in the other. Up ahead, another figure is closing their umbrella as they enter a temple building. A pair of tall wiry trees stand in the foreground; the courtyard is slick with rain, reflecting and scattering light from the woman's lantern and the interior of the temple. Above, the sky is dark and overcast.

Evening rain falls on a street in Maekawa, in modern-day Kanagawa Prefecture. On our left, branches of tall trees reach out over the road; a row of traditional thatched-roof houses stands on our right, warm lights shining in their windows. The road running down the middle of the image is slick with rain, and rain continues to fall from a dim, overcast sky. A solitary pedestrian carries a bamboo umbrella over their head as they walk away from us.

The sun rises over a calm ocean, somewhere off the coast of Japan. A trio of small wooden fishing boats heads out to sea over the mellow waves; the boats and their crews are reduced to silhouettes as they head into a dense bank of fog. Overhead, the sun is a vivid orange-yellow; below, the sunlight breaks and reflects along the waves.

A view looking toward at Nikko's Shinkyo Bridge on a summer's day. The red-lacquered bridge spans the Daiya River in a short, curving arc; tall trees crowd in close on either side. Beyond the bridge, we get a glimpse of the steep tree-covered mountain landscape and a sky glowing yellow with the late afternoon sun.

Torrential rain buckets down at the entrance of Futarasan Jinja, in Nikko. In the foreground, a torii gate is flanked by trees on either side and a low stone wall on the left; on the ground, a trail of squared-off stepping stones leads through the gate. Beyond, a scattering of buildings stand against a backdrop of trees, low shadowy mountains, and an overcast sky. Intense rain pummels the scene, pooling on the road and obscuring details.

oh did you see we found Butterfly oki that May cant 6P
and its for an amazing reason
(this game is 3 dollars)
So, basically, rather than just the spacing of the butterfly too
there's value in setups that time SPECIFIC ANIMATION FRAMES OF THE BUTTERFLY
because it gets slightly bigger vertically, enough to hit her 6P" Accompanied by two images of this as an example
