>>287648336...is that a trap?
>>287648429Crossdresser.
>>287648518So, uh, reverse trap? I considered that too, but the hairdo still looked mostly girly. Very pretty eyes too.
>>287648564Kei Mochizuki is an incredible artist, I hope the anime itself manages to retain her character design.
>>287648637That's what I'm waiting to see too. Is this a movie or series?
https://www.theribbonhero.com/>dat giant hairbow(?)And now I'm leaning back toward it being a trap, haha. Guess I'll see in 4 months.
I'd have to see a trailer to make any determinitive statements but the staff looks great. Yuki Igarashi has done incredible key animation work on shows like Mob Psycho
>>287648746I hope its a Hideyoshi situation and we never find out.
is it studio wit being netflix's slave again
>>287648746Nigga, do you know what this is adapting?
>they don't know Ribbon no Kishi/Princess Knight
>>287649696Nope, I'm going to find out the fun way.
>誰かの望む私じゃ嫌だsounds woke show
>>287648336>>287648485>artist: mochizukihuh that's interestingbut i havent seen her artstyle being animated before
They're not turning the first ever shojo heroine into a trap.
>>287650713Doubt it's going to be anything more than generic shit about being yourself
>>287648746she cute
>A mischief-making angel's prank goes too far when the newborn princess of Silverland ends up with two hearts—one male and one female. Since the laws of the realm only allow a male heir to ascend the throne, Princess Sapphire is raised as a prince. Will the avaricious Duke Duralumin discover her secret and snatch the crown for his own son?
>>287655738>two hearts—one male and one femaleWhat did they mean by this? Anyway, I love reverse traps so I'll find out when I check it out.
I have absolutely no trust in how Netflix is going to handle this story. Tezuka’s original story already deals with ambiguous themes of gender identity and gender roles, and now Netflix is producing a modern adaptation of it? Knowing those bastards, they’re going to change the controversial elements (like the ending) to cater to modern sensibilities.
>>287656710I doubt Netflix has any say on the writing. They just stream it that's all. It's always been like that
>>287656710I assume they're just streaming it and not involved in the creative process, kinda like Edgerunners.
>>287656969And Cosmic Princess Kaguya
>>287648336I kind of wish thry kept the fluff hair
>>287648336Man how you fuckup such iconic design. Need a hat.
>>287648336I haven't read the manga but doesn't an obviously feminine and unambiguous design for the heroine defeats the point?
>>287662685the original looks like fucking Betty Boop
>>287662773Astro Boy*
>>287663090Astro Boop
>>287648336Vtuber designs are a fucking curse.
>>287664543>Vtuber designswhat is that even mean?
>>287650713dumbass catposter
Finally we have DLSS5 for anime. As remakes weren't soulless enough.
>>287648336No Hecate no watch
