I really hope Fukuzawa beats the shit out of Fukuchi. YOU CANT JUST TRY TO KILL RANPO LIKE THAT ESPECIALLY IN FRONT OF HIS DAD. But as always the animation was amazing!
i dunno if you'll see this but i've been obsessed with this animatic and wanted to write down a few things i think about it! - I love how they're framed in the opening part; fkzw sitting in the light while fukuchi is shown in the dark, him gazing into the sun while fukichi closes the curtains. hes choosing to fall deeper into his wallowing, stuck in the past. - 0:27 i'm interpreting this as fukuzawa handing him the invitation to the agency opening party! the catalyst to fukuchi feeling thrown away by the only one who understands him in this world and how he despairs afterwards. going forward, i feel like ranpo is framed as an obstacle, since he represents the agency as a whole, what "took" fukuzawa away from him. it's an unreasonable grudge that he holds close. the sequence starting in 0:38 shows when fukuzawa still looked at him and as he drifts away with the others he meets, now with his eyes obscured and then how fukuchi is still thinking about that fukuzawa from the past. (cutting to fyodor, now the one looking at him and offering him his hand.) - 0:48, the agency faces forward with fukuzawa, while fukuchi has his back turned to the hunting dogs. (love this part) it really shows the contrast between the trust and bond the agency has and the lack of thereof with the dogs and fukuchi; he doesn't have that family fukuzawa has built for himself because he's still so focused on the past and the horrors, he's still utterly alone. i may be overthinking this - 0:55, fukuchi with scissors and the red string of fate imagery makes me think of him wanting to cut that bond, but considering the next frame with all the cut pictures, it's like he just grew more obsessed. i'm a huge fan of your works and im always looking forward to your next upload! i love your use of imagery and your editing is always amazing. this might sound crazy but i was a HUGE fukuchi hater and you've successfully made me grow really fond of him and interested in his character and backstory. ive been converted
really like this analysis! most of what you're speculating is correct, im very impressed and glad that it came across so well :D fukuchi with the scissors after their red string was cut is bc he's instead using it as string on his wall to 'string together' events in an effort to find a way to take down fukuzawa, like he's building up an evidence board for why he should further convince himself that fukuzawa abandoned him first. what was once a symbol of their unbreakable bond is now used by fukuchi to represent his unreasonable hatred of him.
this -and whats going on in the manga- looks great. the outcome its gonna be thrilling, with heavy emotional value for both fuku's, im waiting for the next chapter because it left me on the edge of my seat hehe
im so excited for the next chapter. im so interested in fukuchi’s char, motivations, etc and esp his relationship with fukuzawa and how upset he!d be with his chuldhood friend hurting his two kids. thank u for all the fukuchi and fukuzawa content 🙏 🙏
god i used to just really like your art and choice of colors before i got into bsd but looking at it after having watched most of it im like. blown away by how well you portray the characters and the symbolism you use to discuss their relationships n shit.
this is so late im sorry but thank you sm that means a lot to me bc i put a lot of time and care into how i think abt characters even if this video is now outdated due to new information in bsd lol :3
Did you delete some of your vids? I can't find the one with the "Magical Doctor" song about Yosano's past, nor can I find the one with the "Beaver" song about Fukuchi🧐❓/gen It's totally okay if you did obviously, I'm just surprised that I can't find them🧐 Also this vid is really cool!! 😲
privated, not deleted ^_^' the art style looks very odd to me and bc of rendering issues a lot of my older videos have an ugly color palette i don't really like
Did you take down your hey juicy demon slayer animation 😕😔 normally every few months I rewatch it and I didn’t see it so it’s either removed or you took it down 😭
