What to Do with a Dead Kaiju (or should that be What Must We Do) at Fantasia 2022's Final Day?

Closing off @FantasiaFest #Fantasia2022 tonight is What to Do with a Dead Kaiju? It's not necessarily dead on delivery, but is made for a niche audience for sure! #kaiju #monster #horror #comedy #movierreview at:

Anyone who watches a lot of Japanese monster movies knows how the story goes. We are introduced to a giant monstrous threat to humanity, people panic, and some force arrives to save the day. The two clash and sometimes the opponent dies, and that begs the question (and also the title of the movie), What to Do with a Dead Kaiju? (大怪獣のあとしまつ) The answer we get is similar to what we saw in Shin…

The Witch and the Beast #2 - The Witch's Pastime: Final Act

Screenplay: Yuuichirou Momose Storyboard: Toshiyuki Sone Episode Direction: Masahiko Suzuki Chief Episode Direction: Makoto Tamagawa Chief Animation Direction: Hiroya Iijima Animation Direction: Makoto Shimojima, Kazuharu Tada, Miyoko Shikibu, Miyako Nishida, Geun-Su Lim (Monster AD: Shouya Gotou) Key Animation: Yuka Anze, Yasunori Yamaguchi, Kouichi Takai, Ryou Suzuki, Mizuki Nakane, Shouya Gotou, Tomokazu Gunji, Aya Nagumo, Mayu Nakamura, Mitsuyo Tsuno, Riku Yamahira, Kazumasa Takeuchi, Hideo Maru, Seon-Hui Kim, Studio Toy Box, Kou Kitakaze

Better late than never, right? On my first watch of this episode, I'm not going to lie; I was a bit harsh on it. I couldn't keep the inconsistency and off-model nature of the episode out of my mind (most of which I hope will be fixed in the Blu-rays), and it kind of blinded me in my real assessment of this episode. I want you guys to keep in mind that this is one of my favorite mangas of all time, so I have very high standards for it. Seeing these production issues crop up just isn't a great feeling when the animation itself is already quite limiting.

Despite all of that, I'd still describe it as a reasonably decent episode, though not quite on par with episode 1. However, it did feature some remarkable shots that were visually stunning, courtesy once again of Hirotsugu Kakoi's art direction plus his team at Kagoshima Ramecahirim. The storyboarder of this episode, Toshiyuki Sone, while quite derivative of the manga, I believe, had many shots that make great use of the excellent background art and has a serious sense of depth.

When the scenes are good, they're REALLY good. I've noticed that the show particularly shines during nighttime, and I absolutely love it; it has become my favorite visual aspect of the series so far. Recently, I saw someone describe The Witch and the Beast as a grotesque and gory show, which is only partly true. This manga is aesthetically inclined, balancing the gory and the beautiful, and I believe these specific shots emphasize that quality. The new city setting is dark, empty, and moody, yet it's visually captivating—almost like eye candy. The ethereal lights style, illuminating everything, coupled with the depth and details presented in the aftermath of the victims, all come together in a gory yet beautiful amalgamation for example.

The animation in this episode was still overall limiting, but it wasn't one that particularly needed much per the narrative (of this episode). As mentioned before, the consistency really bothers me, along with some odd choices that could perhaps be attributed to the direction of this episode. The zoom in with Ashaf casting his spell looked low-res when zoomed in and somewhat disrupted my immersion in the episode. Guideau hitting the handrails had this weird effect applied instead of proper animation, which felt awkward. The entire restaurant scene in the second half of the episode was extremely off-model. Despite these issues, the actual episode, both in the narrative adaptation and the background/board ideas, still meshes pretty well with my vision of the manga.

I also hope that, considering this is arguably one of the less important arcs, when we reach Episode 4, which focuses on Johan and Phanora's arc or beyond (don't worry, I'll write about Episode 3 right after this), there will be an improvement in the production levels compared to what we've seen in this episode. I'm optimistic that they've been saving their staff for these more significant episodes. While I acknowledge that this isn't the best production ever, I appreciate the art direction, some of the storyboarding has been quite good, and the show as a whole has been a decent adaptation of the manga. However, I would like to see more consistency going forward.

Also known as: MONKEY / Monkey Magic

IMDb: tt0078659

Type: Retelling

Summary:

Monkey (孫悟空, Son Gokū), the title character, is described in the theme song as being "born from an egg on a mountain top", a stone egg, and thus he is a stone monkey, a skilled fighter who becomes a brash king of a monkey tribe, who, the song goes on to claim, was "the punkiest monkey that ever popped". He achieved a little enlightenment, and proclaimed himself "Great Sage, Equal of Heaven". After demanding the "gift" of a magical staff from a powerful dragon king, and to quiet the din of his rough antics on Earth, Monkey is approached by Heaven to join their host, first in the lowly position of Master of the Stable (manure disposal), and then—after his riotous complaints—as "Keeper of the Peach Garden of Immortality".

Monkey eats many of the peaches, which have taken millennia to ripen, becomes immortal and runs amok. Having earned the ire of Heaven and being beaten in a challenge by an omniscient, mighty, but benevolent, cloud-dwelling Buddha (釈迦如来, Shakanyorai), Monkey is imprisoned for 500 years under a mountain in order to learn patience.

Eventually, Monkey is released by the monk Tripitaka (三蔵法師, Sanzōhōshi), who has been tasked by the Boddhisatva Guanyin (観世音菩薩, Kanzeon Bosatsu) to undertake a pilgrimage from China to India to fetch holy scriptures (implied to be the region of Gandhāra in the song over the closing credits). The pair soon recruit two former members of the Heavenly Host who were cast out and turned from angels to "monsters" as a result of Monkey's transgressions: Sandy (沙悟浄, Sa Gojō), the water monster and ex-cannibal, expelled from Heaven after his interference caused Heaven's Jade Emperor's (天帝, Tentei, Shangdi) precious jade cup to be broken (his birthname is also later revealed to be Shao Chin, having been abducted as a child, but meets his long-lost father, in "The Beginning of Wisdom"), and Pigsy (猪八戒, Cho Hakkai), a pig monster consumed with lust and gluttony, who was expelled from Heaven after harassing the Star Princess Vega—the Jade Emperor's mistress—for a kiss.

A dragon, Yu Lung (玉龍, Gyokuryū), who was set free by Guanyin after being sentenced to death, eats Tripitaka's horse. On discovering that the horse was tasked with carrying Tripitaka, it assumes the horse's shape to carry the monk on his journey. Later in the story he occasionally assumes human form to assist his new master, although he is still always referred to as "Horse".

Monkey can also change form, for instance into a hornet. In Episode 3, The Great Journey Begins, Monkey transforms into a girl to trick Pigsy. Monkey's other magic powers include: summoning a cloud upon which he can fly; his use of the magic wishing staff which he can shrink and grow at will and from time to time, when shrunk, store in his ear, and which he uses as a weapon; and the ability to conjure monkey warriors by blowing on hairs plucked from his chest.

The pilgrims face many perils and antagonists both human, such as Emperor Taizong of Tang (太宗皇帝, Taisōkōtei) and supernatural. Monkey, Sandy, and Pigsy are often called upon to battle demons, monsters, and bandits, despite Tripitaka's constant call for peace. Many episodes also feature some moral lesson, usually based upon Buddhist and/or Taoist philosophies, which are elucidated by the narrator at the end of various scenes.

Literally JUST agonizing over whether a male Primarina would fit Arakawa because I forgot Gardevoir could be male... so true though... and I think a Psychic type would just make sense in terms of how he's (somewhat) more emotionally aware; a lot of yakuza could use a Psychic type but they don't have one... Very Sad...

But with Gardevoir specifically it's super loyal too, which is the kind of person that's drawn to Arakawa. Uhhh something something the association with knights and nobility can relate to him having a greater understanding of Ichiban's interest in a fantasy RPG like DQ but also Ichiban assigning him King (while envisioning himself as a knight). IDK I'm Not Cooking and I Haven't Been For The Past Week which is why I haven't been writing in as much but do we understand... on that note maybe Ichiban should have an Escavalier as a bug collector and a fantasy enjoyer...

Also I thought Poltchageist was a fakemon at first but I'm SO glad it's real :) it is my little buddy :)

Speaking Of Ghosts I finished watching A Ghost of a Chance (read: watched it with a friend)... very funny and enjoyable thank you for the rec... all-star cast For Real, I figured Kusanagi would only show up at the end since he was Emi's dad, but I definitely wasn't expecting Toshiyuki Nishida to have a big role like Sarashina! Loved him in Tiger and Dragon! Also recognized Fumiyo Kohinata from Hero so seeing him costar with Nakai and Abe was fun... Nakai "petting" the dog feels like a HUGE understatement btw but I'm kind of glad I didn't know what to expect... very wholesome scene...

And Speaking Of Tiger And Dragon, same writer as Maiko-haaaan!!! which I also rewatched recently... Apparently Onizuka's actor also plays a character in Tiger and Dragon, But More Importantly I didn't notice Tsutsumi was speaking Kansai the whole time at all 😵‍💫I also forgot he wore a suit that was pretty similar to RGGJo's at one point... teehee...

i think a lot of people forgot gardevoir could be male its ok BUT I DO SEE THE VISION WITH PRIMARINA what with its whole 'every battle is a stage' bit.... i see the idea there you're cookin SOMETHIN there... and i DOOO see the additional notes bout gardevoir i SEE my guy AND ESCAVALIER WOULD BE SO PERFECT FOR ICHI crying and sobbing at that....

OH BUT IM GLAD YO FINISHED A GHOST OF A CHANCE !! yeah no The Dog Scene was a HUGE understatement on my part.. and for reason.. cause the pure unbridled joy i got from the surprise of it was indescribable so im glad you enjoyed it as much as i did ♪(´▽｀) i dont think ive seen anythin else with nishida in it, so im glad i got to see him for the first time in this: i absolutely LOVE how he played sarashina (❁´◡`❁)

i figured he was speaking kansai: at this point, i've just surmised 'jackass' characters to speak the kansai dialect LMAO

#snap chats #now i wanna think of a team for ichi... uh oh... very dangeros line to tread... #this ask leading me to watch tiger and dragon too..... if i have time ill see if i can check it out:]] #i havent watched anything this month so LMAO

Nishida-san’s Letter to Yamada (Rough Translation)

I’ve done a rough translation of the letter, so please let me know if I made any errors.  I also tweeted a version of this letter earlier.

Original source: http://news.mynavi.jp/news/2017/09/23/088/

Nishida-san wrote a letter to Yamada and presented it to him at the opening day stage greeting event for Namiya Zakkaten no Kiseki. 

To Yamada Ryosuke

First of all, I am delighted to be able to greet the opening day of the "Namiya General Store Miracle" together in this way. This time, I wrote my feelings in this letter as “Uncle” Namiya. My first exposure to Yamada-kun was through a variety TV show. I remember I was deeply impressed by this very sparkling [kirakira] young man. After that, as movies and dramas increased in proportion to group activities, I was watching you being active in acting and other arenas.

As an idol, you sing and dance for your fans, and as an actor, you have to act as a character. I wonder if Yamada-kun have been troubled in trying to balance your idol and your actor role.  There may also be people who look at you with prejudice [since you are an idol], I imagine that Yamada-kun is someone who never show your weakness to others, and will try to deal with all this by yourself.  But when I look at the finished film and your appearance on set, I realized I worried for nothing.  You completely disappeared into the role.  Even when there were no lines, you spoke with you facial expressions.  Yamada-kun, you are already a dignified actor on screen.

I debuted in 1967 and will celebrate 50 years in the business this year. Like this movie, I have been around for a long time since the middle of the Showa period until today. But regardless of age or experience in the entertainment industry, I believe that you and I are actors who stand on the same stage [sumo ring]. I sincerely hope that you will grow even more as an actor in the future. I will also persevere so I won’t lose. You could face obstacles or hit a wall [in the future], there could be conflicts, and there could be nefarious chatter coming from people.  But just like before, don’t mind them and please keep looking forward. Everything will be alright, you have a bright future ahead of you. Yes, I am convinced of that.  I sincerely hope that one day you and I can co-star again. Thank you.

From Nishida Toshiyuki

According to various reports, Yamada cried while Nishida-san was reading the letter.  Nishida said in an encouraging voice, “I really like Yamada-kun. You are a good actor. Also, Hey!Say!JUMP, do your best!” Yamada responded, “I have watched Nishida-san since I was a child, although I never thought there will be a day where we work together. Even though we didn’t talk a lot, Nishida-san has such an in-depth understanding about me, so I am very moved. I will work harder and fight for another chance to work with you.  Thank you very much.”
