“A Mother’s Touch: The intimacy, love, and passion behind Tokeino Hari’s animation style.” - It would take a loving and devoted mother’s touch to craft such heartwarming tales, with such gorgeous art-style/animation, as seen in the INCREDIBLE works of Writer/Mangaka, Tokeino Hari. 🤱🏼🖊❤️ From Tokeino’s very 1st published Manga, “Onii-chan to Issho” (Me & My Brothers), to her latest (and on going) masterpiece, and my personal favorite of her incredible works, “Gakuen Bebīshittāzu” (School Babysitters), with “Hitai ni Mikadzuki” (The Crescent Moon on Forehead) & “Gyakuten Honey” (Reversing Me & Honey) in between the two, Tokeino Hari’s art-style/animation greatly compliments the beautiful and heartwarming tales she crafts/writes. They absolutely do!!! 😃😍 Watching #GakuenBebīshittāzu in particular, the animation really stood out unlike MOST Anime(s) yours truly has ever seen, past or present, because once again, it has #AMothersTouch to it, especially in regards to the struggles and hardships, yet the joy and privilege that comes with being a parent, whether as a mother, father, or an older brother/sister (Onii-chan/Onee-chan). 👨👩👧👦💞 Tokeino Hari is a very private woman who keeps her personal life a secret, understandably so, but there’s no question that Tokeino-san pours out her heart and soul into crafting/writing such a beautiful and heartwarming tale as #GakuenBebīshittāzu which is most certainly the heart and soul of an ever-so loving and devoted mother to her babies. 👩👧👦💝 The best example of a fellow writer/mother yours truly could compare Tokeino Hari to is Arlene Klasky, one of the three creators of one of Nickelodeon’s earliest television programs that catapulted the #TVNetwork to mainstream success, and a TV Show yours truly is forever fond of, “Rugrats” (1991-04). 👶🍼 Two shows, one from the #USA🇺🇸 and the other from #Japan🇯🇵 brought to life by two craftswomen of their respective crafts, and mothers to their children. It’s their intimacy, love, and passion towards their works that made them so great and so endearing, especially for yours truly who wishes to be a father to his own lil’ Princess someday! 👸🏼 God willing! 😊🙏🏻 https://www.instagram.com/p/BzPlrBxjpkc/?igshid=1pyp0cx6g4g5h
