#looneyune - #backinaction

“🛑 🚣 👁️’ll 🔥”

One of my favorite moments in Looney Tunes: Back in Action is the chase scene in the Louvre, where Bugs, Daffy, and Elmer Fudd are trapped in The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dali.

The particularly scene continues to live rent-free in my mind, but I just wish that there was a more positive conversation in regard to this film. In fact, I’ve always preferred it over both Space Jam movies.

Keroro Original Movies 1–5 Collection from Discotek Releases August 25, 2026!

And now some news from the other side of the planet!

Revealed at last year’s Otakon, the Movies 1–5 Collection Blu-ray is finally hitting shelves on August 25. It’s up for preorder on MediaOCD’s site right now with an MSRP of around $40 (the site currently has it on sale for $35). The two-disk set features the original five movies, and while the listed 387 minute runtime suggests the shorts before movies 2–4 are NOT present, we’ll have to wait a couple more months to see how the set looks otherwise. As a reminder, the set is locked to Blu-ray region A, which encompasses the Americas, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. Sorry to followers outside those areas! (Though there may be workarounds…I’ve never actually owned any Blu-rays…)

#looneyune - #coyotevsacme

For this prompt, I decided to draw the part from the trailer with Wile E. Coyote on his roller skates.

I’m looking forward to checking this movie out when it arrives in theaters this coming August.

#looneyune - #scientist

For this prompt, I decided to draw the Peter Lorre scientist as he appeared in the 1947 Daffy Duck short “Birth of a Notion” along with Daffy Duck himself. All he wanted was that wishbone, alright.

LOONEYUNE - #franktashlin

For this prompt, I decided to drawing the Frank Sinatra-esque rooster (also known as Frankie Rooster) from the 1944 Porky Pig short Swooner Crooner directed by Frank Tashlin. His appearance was a caricature on Sinatra’s pre-Rat Pack years, right down to his skinny appearance and his bow tie.

It still feels surreal to say this but I met Miho Shimogasa at Casale Comics a few weeks ago. The convention was offering a meet and greet package that my friend Pietro and I immediately jumped on. I assumed it was going to be a simple "oh, nice to meet you" with a photo op and autograph but it was so much more than that.

We met with Shimogasa-sensei, her assistant and the interpreter in a private room.

Shimogasa-sensei shared original production sketches and animation cels from Sailor Moon and Cutey Honey Flash with us. We took turns passing them around. To say they were breathtaking is an understatement. Her lines were so clean and precise, it nearly brought tears to our eyes. The cels she owned also had their original backgrounds and were in pristine condition.

Shimogasa-sensei was incredibly sweet, sharing little tidbits and answering our questions while doing autographs. My Japanese isn't the best but it really came through during our conversations! At one point I was even translating for my friend! I told her that I worked on most of the official US releases for Cutie Honey and said that unfortunately Cutey Honey Flash has yet to come over. I was sure to tell her that fans want it and they especially love her designs.

Each person at the meet and greet received a mini sketch of their choice plus three autographs. Pretty much everyone requested Sailor Moon characters. I asked Shimogasa-sensei to draw Misty Honey and she got nervous. I felt so bad! She had to look at my Cutey Honey F laserdisc for reference. It came out so adorable! (see above)

Shimogasa-sensei shared a lot of interesting facts:

Misty Honey was modeled after Violence Jack. Or rather, his female form that is known by fans as "Lady Violence Jack." I can't believe I never knew this! My mind was blown.

Shingo Araki did uncredited work on the Cutey Honey Flash opening. Another thing that completely blew my mind! She wasn't sure which parts he worked on.

Although she had designed all the new outfits in Sailor Moon episode 181, she did not pick out the colors. She didn't specify who did. This surprised me.

Shimogasa-sensei is quite proud of her designs for Panther Zora and Sister Jill because they were so close to Go Nagai's style. The Cutey Honey Flash volume 9 laserdisc (pictured above) is her favorite for that very same reason.

While this is a well known fact, she did mention that Scud Panther was modeled after Marquis Janus from Great Mazinger. She also confirmed that Scud Panther was partially inspired by Drill Claw from the original Cutie Honey.

I asked about these three girls that show up in Sailor Moon episode 187:

I said that they reminded me of Honey, Candy (Candy Candy) and Miki Makimura (Devilman). I asked if this was just a coincidence and she laughed saying "no, it wasn't." How cute!

We got to chat a lot during the convention, I showed off my collection and she was especially surprised to see I owned a copy of a Cutey Honey Flash storyboard. Her reaction was "why do you have this?", which made me sweat. I clarified that I simply had a copy, not the original. At one point she asked if I had any pets and I showed her a photo of Myanmar with my boyfriend. She agreed that they looked alike. Haha.

Before we parted ways, she gifted Pietro and I bottles of green tea. She held my hand and said "I hope we meet again." I nearly cried!

[retrosofa]

I finally had the pleasure of meeting Marco Albiero, the Italian artist best known for his international work on Sailor Moon merchandising. Marco and I have been internet friends for awhile but this was our first time meeting in person. He gave my friend Pietro and I goodie bags that were filled with art prints, stickers and key chains. But the best gift he gave me was this absolutely gorgeous Cutie Honey illustration!

Marco planned a whole tour of Milan and it felt like he knew everybody. It was surreal visiting the ABYStyle and seeing his artwork all over the Sailor Moon section. He also did a quick sketch of Super Sailor Moon for me and it was incredible how spot on it was!

Hopefully he makes a con appearance in the United States soon!

Here’s my shot at trying to draw Sam Sheepdog and Ralph Wolf (whose design was recycled from a certain coyote).

Keroro Movie 6 Opening “KERORO MARCH RETURNS” (AKA “Kero! to March Returns Again”) Lyrics Translated!

Visit Original Link

And here’s new song number two! The fifth rendition of the classic first opening theme! Now sung by ano and Soshina with a remastered marching band arrangement.

For the translation, I did play with the words a bit to try to squeeze some rhymes in especially since the song is supposed to be funny. In case you want to check the lyrics in Japanese yourself, you can find them here. Dedicated fans will notice lines from multiple older versions of the song mixed in with the new lyrics! I’ll also leave a couple of translation notes at the end since there’s some lines that require a bit more context.

Three, two, one… Fire!!

Kero! Kero! Kero! Invade the Earth for the first time in a while Ke-kero kero! When I remember to bring my umbrella, it’s sunny for miles

“Hey there!! We’re back in action for a bit!!” The rice is finished cooking, but the curry is burnt

They had no more stock of the clothes I want to buy I can’t pay on my phone ’cuz my balance is dry Keron’s also fun for newlyweds But it would’ve been cheaper just to buy dinner instead

Ano! Ano! Ano! Launch our attack from atop a conveyor belt A-Ano Ano! A drop of ramen splattered on me the day I wore a white shirt

“All troops, attention…right! No, left!!” I want to be hated, but it turns out I’m beloved “Being popular is a pain!”

I don’t really need this, but I can’t throw it away Even if someone else wants it, I don’t wanna say goodbye Oh, Keron, air out all of your complaints Everything’s so manufactured, space and time have gone awry

“Soshina here! Here I go!” Freakin’ hot blood courses through our body parts A fighting spirit’s carved into our hearts Bring home the victory forevermore, we are Planet Keron Freakin’ hot blood courses through our body parts A fighting spirit’s carved into our hearts Bring home the victory forevermore, for our precious planet! We are Planet Keron!

“All troops… Sorry, but don’t stop moving!!!” “Uuugh! What the hell was that?!”

Gero! Gero! Gero! Shout to the heavens! A war cry louder than a yawn Ge-gero gero! I rushed to get the phone, but when I picked it up, it was just a robocall

“From today on, the Reiwa Era shall be the Keroro Era!!” I’m waiting out the rain with a rain-go-away doll

Sparkling stars, spilled food like stardust, five stars I see If you’re making fish broth, use those tiny dried sardines Keron is the best planet in space, maybe Ah, five minutes from the station is actually fifteen!!

Well then, soldier, that’s a job well done!!

Kero kero! Kero! Ke— Ano!! “That wasn’t it…” “You ruined it!”

Kero!!!

TRANSLATION NOTES: 1: The "freakin’ " part in the Soshina solo section might seem random, but that was because this part is almost copied word-for-word from the original Kero to March besides the addition of the word めっちゃ which is a very casual intensifier i.e. "extremely." My interpretation is it's supposed to make the part sound a bit cruder. 2: In Japanese, the "rain-go-away doll" is teru teru bouzu, a doll that looks kind of like a little ghost that's hung outside doors and windows to keep away rain. The joke is that putting one out while it's already raining would be too late, therefore the concept is ironic.

Happy Lucy Day (6/4) 💙🗝🌟

I thought it’d be neat to draw Lucy Heartfilia in her Aquarius star dress again while performing her Urano Metria spell.

Enjoy.

[coolerkinghilts]

It’s that time once again for @davealvarezstudios-blog ’s LOONEYUNE prompt challenge, and like with last year’s drawing challenge, I’ll only do a select number of prompts. For the Bob Clampett prompt, I decided to draw one of his creations Beaky Buzzard interacting with an actual turkey vulture.

Did you know that the word “buzzard” was used to refer to hawks, but when Europeans settled in North America, they started to use that term for birds indigenous to the area such as the turkey vulture?

[coolerkinghilts]

Happy birthday to the lovely Laura Bailey, voice of Maka Albarn from Soul Eater! For her birthday, I drew this pic of Maka based on her appearance from the second Soul Eater ending theme.

It was a pleasure getting to meet her at GalaxyCon San Jose last year, and I hope that she’s enjoying her day today.

[coolerkinghilts]

Since I read from a comment that Rally is actually taller than Revy, I ended up deciding to draw the two together again, this time with their canon heights. 🔫

Hope you enjoy my latest drawing.

And here’s my earlier drawing from last year or so featuring the two for the context.

My Lucy Heartfilia Funko Pop just arrived today.

My Lucy Heartfilia Funko Pop just arrived today. It was a preorder from Amazon as well as the only Funko Pop that I’ll ever purchase for myself, especially as someone who’s normally not into these things. 💙🗝🌟

My Cutie Honey Universe Blu Ray signed by Jessica Calvello has just arrived today. Once again, I would like to thank both OG Collectibles and Anime Las Vegas for helping to make this possible. 😉

Cutie & Honey

[retrosofa]

Another grail item obtained! Cutie Honey hand mirror by Patra. This is one of the few girl-centered toys released for the original series back in the 70's. There's at least one other design, which features Honey Kisaragi.

Huge shoutout to my friends Ayumi Shinozaki and @showamagicalgirls for helping me get this. I am absolutely over the moon!
