What's Michael is the greatest cat cartoon of all time. ALL TIME. Both the comic and the anime! I don't understand how the internet has been around for decades and What's Michael is still relatively obscure. I mean, I know it's old, but it's THE BEST.
BTW here's the comic that clip was adapted from! "What's Michael?" (#ホワッツマイケル?) is a BRILLIANT comic! Dark Horse published it in North America back in the day! (reads left to right as translated manga was flipped back then!)

Seriously, Star Gladiator has such an amazing cast of characters! One of my favorites! Beyond being the COOLEST riff on Star Wars, they're just fantastic characters on their own too!
Hayato is such a great, badass main character. His bladed beam sword takes light sabers back to their roots (they were inspired by katanas after all). And my god, he's just so STYLISH. Love the ripped tee and red space Nikes!

Never forget that in the Japanese version of Capcom's Quiz & Dragons (1994) the Fighter isn't just not wearing pants, he looks like he's straightup bottomless!
Ok actually it's only in the select screen. He's actually wearing a loin cloth in-game. I think they just figured you wouldn't see him below the waist for the portrait art, so they had some fun with that drawing 😅
Here's a comparison of the select screens from the US and JPN versions of Quiz and Dragons. The JPN version actually came out 2 years later and had extra gameplay and new art for the characters and bosses!

I was recently looking through the official OG Japanese Darkstalkers guide. All the screens were photographed from an arcade monitor, reflecting how Capcom meant for the game to be displayed. These sprites were optimized for CRT monitors!
It's become a running joke that Morrigan's unchanged sprite looks so out of place in all the VS games. But when you look at her sprite as it was meant to be displayed, in Darkstalkers, on an arcade monitor with scanlines, it looks great!
Something that will be very difficult for future generations to understand (because it just can't be emulated properly and even photos are misleading) is that older console and arcade games didn't look low res upon release.
