welp I just watched The Roundtable's video "THE NEW ANIMATION TREND" and I agree with alot of the points in the video, and I actually watched quite alot of the shows he mentioned a few years back and really liked them partly because of their fluid animation
bUT HOLY HELL I DID NOT KNOW THE EXISTENCE OF THIS ANIMATION MASTERPIECE UNTIL NOW
LIKE-
OKAY ONE, THIS REMINDS OF THE TIME ABOUT A YEAR AGO WHEN THE RISE OF THE TMNT TRAILER CAME OUT ON CARTOON NETWORK AND I WAS LIKE "oKAY HOW THE F*CK WAS THIS ANIMATED" AND WHEN ANOTHER PROMOTIONAL BTS COMMERCIAL CAME OUT AND THEY STATED THAT THE NOW TMNT SHOW WAS HAND DRAWN I WAS EVEN MORE IMPRESSED-
LIKE-
THIS LEGIT REMINDS ME OF THAT TIME
AND TWO, IF YOU'VE EVER SEEN ONE OF MY PREVIOUS POSTS YOU KNOW I'M OBSESSED WITH JOURNEY TO THE WEST
AND THIS THING IS OBVIOUSLY BASED ON IT
LIKE-
THEY MENTION FLOWER FRUIT MOUNTAIN WHICH IS WHERE SUN WUKONG WAS BORN(sort of..) AND WHERE HIS KINGDOM IS
AND NICE DETAIL IS WITH THE BULL WHO SEEMS TO BE AN ANTAGONIST IN THE STORY CUZ IN ORIGINAL NOVEL AND MANY OF ITS ADAPTIONS THE BULL DEMON KING IS IN FACT AN ANTAGONIST(Or can be considered the main antagonist)
AND OF COURSE IT LOOKS THE THE MAIN CHARACTERS ARE GONNA TRAVEL THROUGH SOME DANGEROUS LAND FILLED WITH DEMONS WHICH IS BASICALLY THE ENTIRE BOOK-
AND THE MAIN GANG ALSO INCLUDES A PIG AND A BIG GUY WHHO ARE BASICALLY THIS GROUP'S VERSION OF PIGSY AND SANDY
AND THREE, AGAIN, THE ANIMATION
ITS SO DAMM BEAUTIFUL AND FLUID-
I MEAN LOOK AT THE INTRO
ISN'T IT EYE CANDY?!
MY GOD I DO HOPE THIS DECADE CAN BRING US THIS ANIMATION TREND WITH MORE STYLES AND FLUID ANIMATION
I MEAN LOOK AT THE MOVIES INTO THE SPIDERVERSE AND KLAUSE, THEIR STYLES ARE REVOLUTIONARY AND AGAIN, I HOPE THAT THIS DECADE WILL BRING US THESE KINDS OF ANIMATION TO THE WORLD
On a final note it seems like every time the protagonist uses his powers a headband similar to Sun Wukong's appears on his head, which is kinda awkward considering the fact that the reason why he wears the thing isn't to look cool or fancy or anything. It was given to him by Tripitaka in order to force him to come with him on his journey cuz you see, the headband was given to Tripitaka by Guanyin, the thing has an enchantment on it where when Tripitaka recites an incantation, the thing starts to shrink givinf Sun a splitting and painful headache. Of course Sun also couldn't take the headband off cuz it wouldn't be much of a cursed object for him if he could
So yeah hope you enjoyed my ramble thank you and goodnight
