Wow, here I was thinking that most girls get their periods at 10 these days. I guess they better grow the fuck up right there and then due to the hormones they can't control?
Fuck off.

Jesus imagine being this bitter about a harmless post that just suggests making colourful pads for 10 or 11 year old girls
Anti fems are overwhelmingly vile trash.

Favourite animators: Mitsuo Iso (磯光雄) and his work on the End of Evangelion
Learn/watch more:
Mitsuo Iso is known for his jerky yet detailed animation, full of dense sophisticated motion. He refers to his own style as “full limited" or "full 3-frame". In traditional animation, animation with a drawing count below one drawing every two frames (or "on twos") is considered limited animation. Working on threes and fours, Iso draws every keyframe without passing his work to an in-betweener, allowing him full control to create the most detailed motion possible with the fewest number of drawings, hence the term "full limited". (wikipedia)
Introduction to Mitsuo Iso’s style
Sakuga: The Animation of Anime pt.7 -  Mitsuo Iso and New Realism
More scenes animated by Mitsuo Iso: part 1, part 2, the fight from EoE

He also wrote and directed the 2007 anime series “Dennō Coil”

Gorgeous animation!
Reminds me of Okami (which makes sense), and made for Louis Vuitton (which I could take it or leave it tbh), anyway…Happy Lunar New Year!
