Daydream Hour (Ryoko Kui) & Koyomi Vamp Storyboard Collection (Tatsuya Oishi)

God, I feel incredibly lucky having these in hand right now. Daydream Hour got driven into almost immediate stock outages thanks to the crazy success of Delicious In Dungeon, and the Koyomi Vamp storyboard collection is expensive, and only being sold through specific theaters.

Safe to say they're not the easiest things to get your hands on. But, with some incredible luck I managed to get both into my hands, and incredibly quickly at that.

Of course, I'll 100% be sharing info and art from each book. There's so much wonderful work hidden away in these pages and I'd love to afford people the opportunity to be able to check them out.

However... you can find the majority of Ryoko Kui's Daydream Hour on the Internet Archive, if you just can't wait to see what's inside (or don't care what I have to add to it haha)

Honestly, if you had to ask me what one thing makes Shaft anime so distinct aesthetically, I'd probably say the blocking

There's a lot else at play, but every anime I've seen by the studio is just full of shots of perfectly-posed characters, subtle when they need to be, but just as often quirky or outlandish

The studio is clearly good at hiring people who know how to frame a shot and how to maximise the potential of a character's design

edit: the reason i put reboot under Dillon are

it not being rebooted kinda just makes it a "everyone wins" button and that would make the poll boring

2. i also think it'd be pretty likely that they'd reboot it TBH
