    also creator of Cat Soup, Ping Pong, Kaiba, the Tatami sequel Night is Short Walk On Girl, Devilman Crybaby......if you don't know any of these titles you've been sleeping under a rock tbh.

    one of the goat anime directors who's currently one of the most prolific as well, his second series this year just dropped on Netflix (his second collab after Devilman)

    Keep Your Hands of Eizouken is pretty great

    Japan Sinks 2020 is a fantastic concept with disappointingly sub-par execution imo

    Just downloaded tatami mind game night is short and kaiba

    trailers all look incredible. Already watched the first two eps of tatami last night. Will prolly crush the rest of it later tonite.

    Only complaint so far is the dialogue is so wordy and spoken so quickly that the subtitles are hard to follow while also trying to watch the animation. s*** is beautiful tho and I like how the animation/art style isn’t like the typical anime. They way he does the trees/leaves w the all over print so good.

    Tatami Galaxy improves your skim reading skills, and zero cap on that lol.

    yo I’m so glad I peeped this thread

    Already watched tatami, mind game, night is short, and currently watching Kaiba which is pretty f***ing crazy

    Lu over the wall prolly my least fav. Watched that one before you made this thread w/o knowing anything about masaaki

    yo I'm glad to hear that those are for sure some of his best works too

    Still haven't seen Lu, don't really have high expectations for it either tbh. I do have some hopes for Kemonozume which is the last of his series (except Japan Sinks) which I haven't peeped yet, looks like more in the Mind Game style

    in love w the soundtrack for kaiba

    it really takes the whole show to another level i feel like its so crucial for setting the mood and making it a lil more serious cause the art style can come off kinda goofy/childish or whatever
