(also you can draw separate frames i just decided to unite the simpler ones from beginning)
THANKU `Painovoima` !!! i really need to know if that's a Jimi Hendrix reference😶👀
Sort of, yes! 😁 It’s Brook from the show, One Piece. He is a skeleton pirate musician, who borrows inspiration from Jimi Hendrix and Slash, according to the shows creator.
His screaming face was the first thing that came to mind following your skull like face in your last panel 😁
`Painovoima` damn his creator did a good job taking inspo, skeletons are always dope💀💀💀
Agreed, KMP! I think the creator also mentioned being inspired by Tim Burton's Jack Skellington as well.
he is definetly inspired by popeye 🤔 (and dragonball 🤔)
I gave up on one piece really early on .. it just felt that it's going nowhere.. but that is most manga/anime I guess 🤔
`Painovoima` i can definitely see that☠️
Not big on anime myself, but one piece fans that i met went absolutely crazy abt it, good for them
`Peyo` i feel similar way about most series, some are just cool to watch, at this point it's all about the characters :)
Definitely met many who felt the same 😁
For me, only thing I dislike about anime would be that many anime shows do suffer often from too much filler, One Piece especially 😅 This might have contributed to the feeling of the show going no where, `Peyo` ?
I was able to start watching it in 2020, when the world sort of closed, and I made it to 400-500 episodes in. Grew on me rather quick, and it indeed became about the characters for me `KMP` , I was interested in seeing how they developed, new interesting ones introduced, and some great action scenes 😁👌
Filler probably made up 30% of the episodes though, but I sat through them all, watched at a slow pace.
Only reason I stop, was not due to lack of interest, just get busy and pause at a point where an arc ends and new one about to begin.
I mostly grew up enjoying western cartoons myself, but do love anime, wish I knew how to draw and animate in that style more; like dynamic, detailed high energy action scenes.
What style cartoon, if any, do you all enjoy most?
This show, incredibly funny by the way, explains filler well, and it probably applies to animation or tv shows in general that are based off books/comics 😅

`Painovoima`
I think the problem is the same as with many other shows
it starts out really well with a simple idea (piracy exploding - explains why etc.)
then the story is structured around recruiting the crew
but after that is done I lost track of what is even happening anymore - it became pure chaos with new characters introduced or re-introduced or hinted to appear later left and right and each one is more edgy than the last
I guess that is also every anime in a nutshell .. 🤔
it feels like that once the planned stuff runs out you are just watching a dude riding a bull trying their best to come up with new stuff and just keep getting more desperate 🤔
Holy jeez `Painovoima` 400-500 episodes?! I picture you putting it on while eating or drawing as background 😆
I guess filler episodes are alright if creators try to show characters from different side/ or when you binge watch the show it won't end too quickly, leaving the feeling of emptiness
Honestly i don't like cartoons at all, sometimes I'd watch stopmotion/claymation/old full length anime but that's it
Last series i watched was detective story "mindhunter" based on true events, i DID rewatch it and skip filler scenes tho :p
`Peyo` , it certainly is a common approach now that I think of it, ha ha. I agree it makes for a messy story overall, no denying that, but I’ve always loved seeing the power creep of newer characters as the main ones progress and develop throughout their journey. It is like the creator sits down with a team of character designers and after their brainstorming session, they produce 100 characters, and rather than picking top 10-20, they use them all 😅
`KMP` , for sure, and during work actually 😆 Great background noise, that can surprisingly help me focus on my work better, oddly enough.
And good point about the fillers, that’s true for the episodes that build on a character or share their backstory. Good for world building sometimes too, for ones they go into history of certain locations. It’s the ones that highlight previous episodes I despise, just lazy recycling of old animated scenes 😅
I’ll have to check out Mindhunters, I’ve been on a detective show binge myself lately, started watching some really old stuff, most recently Columbo 😁
