Hustlecat Print! (photoshop)

If you didn’t know, a bunch of my best pals are kickstarting a visual novel called Hustle Cat!  If the kickstarter gets to $30K, everyone who backs at $60 or above will receive a copy of this print!  But act fast, there’s less than three days left!!

The game is super cute and there’s a buncha playable demos that you can play RIGHT NOW IN YOUR BROWSER!  I’m utterly smitten with the main character Avery and how customizable they are. ♥︎

I was fortunate to be the guy to make the fun bumper at the end of the credits! Watch the 1st 6 episodes of OKKO on the Cartoon Network app!

Seven recent episodes of Yo-Kai Watch have opened with these hysterical “Dark Yo-Kai Watch” skits (this anime is made up of basically “sketches” it cycles in and out) and the best thing about them is the clear reference to Gegege no Kitaro going on.

Because Kitaro USED to look like this, from the 60′s to mid 80′s:

…..And had some incredibly grisly horror content, with heinous fates befalling humans who messed with the yokai world.

But from the 90′s to today, newer “main” Kitaro series have started to avoid more gruesome themes and look more like this:

(can you even believe the girl in the red dress is supposed to be the same character in both images? wtf)

So Yo-Kai watch is kind of pulling a reversal and just NOW adding a darker, nastier, older looking AU and I don’t even need to understand a word of Japanese to enjoy these (though I did understand that Dark Keita’s Yokai name is “caterpillar man”)
