I don’t think she’s criticizing, I think she legitimately thinks it was a worthwhile trade. It looks to me like she’s mentioning the tactical choice only because it is an obvious benefit.
Huh, I was half expecting it to still turn out to be mini golf. And the knock the clown dolls down thing? I haven’t thought about it in years. I vaguely even remember it. Seriously, what was Binky going for with his theory?
I imagine she’s accounted for that in the costuming, my guess is that those are tights instead of stockings, though biker shorts or the like under the skirt could certainly work too. Or maybe she uses some sort of fancy tech so that there’s an impenetrable shadow under the skirt and no matter how she moves, it will always stay ‘down’ in relation to her, you know, the anime solution when they don’t want to deal with that sort of thing.
Sure, but not always. Sometimes they use bike shorts or tights to avoid it, sometimes they use shadows, shadows is particularly common in games, can’t have a panty shot if you don’t render it, after all.
It depends on what they’re going for, after all, if you want something to be scandalous, then make it scandalous, if you don’t then don’t.
Despite it being my culture, I’m not actually sure how Western animation deals with this one, which seems strange now that I’m thinking about it.
After some thought, I think Western animation just doesn’t have the camera angles.
I’m guessing that the people who do Anime want to continue to make use of some of those angles even when they don’t want to have that particular theme, as a possible reason why they have actually come up with ways around this sort of thing. I’m remembering other anime series that have what must be blatant panty shots in universe, but the camera angles are always wrong for the audience to get them, I guess those animators just like trolling?
NOOO I CANT BELIEVE I CAUGHT UP ALREADY T^T. Found this series all of a day ago, and I have to say I think it’s my new favorite thing on the internet. Maybe my favorite thing on the internet ever. Can’t wait to see more 🙂
I’m beginning to think that Echo is just leading Mustard away from the Binky/Gus fight. Why else would she run upstairs but then give up her tactical advantage?
Echo could solo Mustard and Binky. She dragged out the fight with oats, too. Either she’s doing it for fun, or she doesn’t want to fight them to the death.
to be frank this is unfair criticism about sacrificing a tactical advantage for the sake of a bit when coming from a literal clown

Echo be playing with her food
Well she can’t exactly come up with a cheesy one liner, now can she? visual comedy’s the best she’s got in terms of fight banter.
it’s also a good way to communicate “i’m not in the least bit concerned about you”
It finally occurred to me, isn’t there a risk of people looking up Mustard’s skirt while she floats through the air?

Anime solu- Japan’s entire half of the comic and animation medium is infamous for panty shots! Along with other mandatory corny bullshit.

I bet you 20 bucks that tomorrow she’ll pull off her mask and reveal that she’s Detective Soto undercover.
Is no one going to comment on how funny the first panel is?
