Original Title: Animator Takashi Hashimoto (Your Name, Ghost in the Shell, Dragon Ball Super: Broly) addresses One Punch Man Season 3 criticism: "No one sets out to make a bad product - the more you bully us, the more staff will disappear"

"Regarding One-Punch Man, the criticisms—or rather, the sheer volume of criticism from people watching illegally overseas—are overwhelming. The production team probably feels a lot of pain because of it. Everyone shares the same feeling: nobody sets out to make a bad product. Yet, we get criticized for the smallest details. Where is our motivation supposed to go?

I'll be blunt: in the next few weeks, something we poured our hearts and souls into will be aired. If people call it crap or a ‘paper play’ (limited animation), then so be it, but we pushed ourselves to the very limit. Please, think about the creators behind the screen. We aren't doing this as volunteers; this is everyone's job. The more you bully us, the more the staff will disappear. Guaranteed."

Takashi Hashimoto is a veteran effects/explosion animator and has worked on many known series such as Your Name, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Naruto, One Piece etc. You can see all their works here. He has been confirmed to be participating in one of the upcoming episodes of One Punch Man season 3.

Why, yes I do believe in singing (And don't forget to buy the CD, right?)

Song du jour

Since someone noted the low view count on the version of the OP I linked yesterday, so here's another absolutely lovely version of the OP

Also, a fond farewell would seem inappropriate without our Healer Girls singing the ED

Healing be upon you!

Questions du Jour:

1. So, overall, (warts aside?) what do you think? Did you enjoy it?? Are you healed??? Do tell, and feel free to toss in your rating, if you like.

2. Favorite episode/story beats? Least? In between?

3. If you're the type, who's your favorite Healer Girl, and so on. Tier lists accepted(!)

4. Would you schedule an appointment at the Karasuma Phonetic Clinic?

5. Or would you prefer to become a Healer Girl and work as an apprentice there???

6. Do you have any of your own personal favorite healing songs? Would you like to share them with us?

Final thoughts:

Someone (I forget who) mentioned that it was kind of tough to keep track of who was singing each part throughout the OP, and today, thanks to the wonders of the algorithm, I discovered yet another wonderful video of the girls singing the OP, this time with the singers highlighted as they sing, so yay! Yet another lovely song to listen to and enjoy. :)

I'd like to say that this is going to be an expensive rewatch, because I now feel compelled to buy the CDs, but ... it's not like that other rewatch where I felt compelled to buy a set of figures ... go fig.

Shoutouts

★ Too many to list - thanks to all of you who have made this such an enjoyable rewatch!

Marseille (AFP) – Thousands of people gathered in Marseille on Saturday to honour the brother of an anti-drug activist murdered in France's second largest city whose death sparked nationwide calls to confront drug crime.

Demonstrators chanted "Justice for Mehdi" before observing a minute of silence at the roundabout where the 20-year-old Mehdi Kessaci was shot dead by a gunman in his parked car on November 13.

Investigations are ongoing but authorities consider the murder to be a "warning crime" linked to the anti-drug activism of his brother Amine Kessaci, 22, who was welcomed by cheers as he joined the crowd on Saturday.

Amine Kessaci is now living under police protection and the gathering was marked by heavy police presence in the southern port city hard hit by drug crime.

The young anti-drug and environmental activist threw himself into campaigning after his half-brother Brahim was murdered in a drug-trafficking feud in 2020.

"I demand justice for Mehdi. I demand justice for Brahim, my other murdered brother. I demand justice for all the victims. I demand safety for my family," said Amine, whose presence at the gathering wasn't confirmed until the last moment due to security concerns.

A former lawmaker has called for him to be awarded France's highest order of merit, the Legion of Honor, but the activist said it was "the mothers of the neighbourhoods (hit by drug crime) who deserve a decoration for their courage, their dignity, their daily struggle".

"For years we have been raising the alarm, we have been speaking out because we know that silence kills. Each retreat by the institutions has facilitated the advance of drug trafficking," he said on Saturday via a recorded message played to the crowd.

Marseille has been struggling to battle drug crime, with more than a dozen people killed since the start of the year in turf wars and other disputes linked to cocaine and cannabis dealing.

"Fear cannot beat us," said Marseille Mayor Benoit Payan.

"We must resist and fight them, wage a war against those who kill for money," he added, calling for unity and refusing to let Marseille be labeled a "narco-city".

Politicians from across the political spectrum joined the gathering, Mehdi's death having sparked a nationwide focus on drug crime, with initiatives also planned in some 25 other towns and cities.

Many laid white flowers at the spot where Mehdi, who aspired to become a police officer, was killed.

Interior Minister Laurent Nunez has called the crime a "turning point" and President Emmanuel Macron urged France to step up its actions and use the same approach it has used against "terrorism".

While drug-related homicides often make front-page news in Marseille, Mehdi Kessaci's killing stunned the city.

Activists were among the crowd of more than 6,200 people, where some carried white flowers and wore white shirts.

For 72-year-old activist Anne-Marie Tagawa, the gathering would be a moment of "reflection, but also for us to say we are not ok with what is happening".

She said disadvantaged neighbourhoods were "fertile ground that has been abandoned by institutions, the State", leaving them those who would turn them into places where crime thrives and establish "systems of violence".

The bereaved mother of Mehdi and Brahim, Ouassila Benhamdi, joined the gathering, dressed entirely in white.

"My heart is torn apart. I am inconsolable. No mother wants to see her children die before her," she said in a speech, which someone finished reading for her as she was overcome by grief.

"I am asking the government to grasp the gravity of everything that is happening," she added.

"This must stop, for all the families affected by this scourge."

TALLINN, Estonia (AP) — Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has pardoned 31 Ukrainians jailed in Belarus on criminal offences, it was reported on Saturday, the latest step in Minsk’s effort to thaw relations with the West.

They were released “as a gesture of goodwill”, in accordance with agreements reached between Lukashenko and U.S. President Donald Trump at Ukraine’s request, Belarusian state agency Belta said, citing Lukashenko’s spokesperson, Natalia Eismont. Those freed were handed over to Kyiv, according to the report.

Earlier this week, Lukashenko pardoned two jailed Catholic priests at the request of the Vatican.

Belarus, Russia’s close and dependent ally, has allowed the Kremlin to use its territory to send troops and tanks into Ukraine, and later to place nuclear weapons there. Moscow and Kyiv have also conducted prisoner swaps on Belarusian land.

Lukashenko, who has ruled Belarus with an iron first for over 30 years, has recently tried to repair relations with the West. Weeks after a phone call with Trump in August, he pardoned 51 political prisoners under a U.S.-brokered deal that saw some sanctions lifted from the country’s national airline, Belavia.

It’s coming down to the final deadline. I’m running out of time and need to decide ….

Kids are at college so buying in bulk is less important but I love Costco. My membership expired in May, but I’m down to three rolls of toilet paper, LoL

Do I renew Costco and continue to buy in bulk at the potential of wasting money, or do I give up on Costco and buy all supplies from the grocery?
