I screamed.
Another reminder that Japanese pro wrestling does "live-action anime" better than Netflix. These are the Tag Team champions. Image
This is team NEO Biishiki-gun from Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling. TJPW is part of the WrestleUniverse streaming service, which is free for new subscribers until the end of the year. Please check it out here:

I recommend starting with "Wrestle Princess II". Image
If the entrance music of NEO Biishiki-gun sounds familiar to you, it may be because it is Bara wa Utsukushiku Chiru, the opening song from the 1979 anime, "The Rose of Versailles". Comparison video below. #tjpw #tjpwWP2

Captain Planet was ratings poison for Cartoon Network, but they were required to air it by Turner. It became a game to figure out where to put it on the schedule to where it would do the least amount of damage.
I feel like I've seen the opening theme a thousand times, but I don't recall ever sitting through a full episode of Captain Planet. Instant channel-changer, and not because of "woke", it was because it was boring & unappealing.
Something like The Magic School Bus was pretty woke & educational, but the difference is that it was actually a good cartoon. Or should I say, a good bustoon

While the Discotek team works tirelessly to remaster forgotten Japanese anime, there are efforts in Japan to remaster The Mask cartoon.
Is this sakuga?
Alright, I get it - this is a masterpiece.

I always saw it as

Mega Man: Astro Boy
Mega Man X: Casshan
Mega Man Legends: Future Boy Conan / Castle in the Sky (this one gets overlooked the most, I think)
What's most interesting is that, in America, Mega Man is probably more well-known than any of those properties. In Japan, the influence is much more inherently understood.
If you like Mega Man Legends, consider adding Future Boy Conan to your watchlist. The influence is apparent.

Was looking for SF2 CE move strips and found this.
Broke: Memorizing frame data for every move
Woke: Medium attacks have immediate destructive power
We've had how many Street Fighter adaptations now? And literally none of them have gotten the story right.

omg #tjpw is actually trending, so I will help by live-tweeting tonight's show. To start, Kaya Toribami & Haruna Neko are teaming together today. A birdgirl and catgirl working together?! You will only see this in the world of #tjpw, folks
Their opponents are Arisu Endo and Suzume. You won't BEElieve what Suzume can do in the ring. Follow along to see what all the buzz is about. 🐝🐝 @suzume_tjpw #tjpw
@haruna_tjpw dodges a grapple attempt by Arisu Endo & COUNTERS with a double-pawed scratch to the face. When entering a combat sport against a catgirl, it's important to remember that their claws are considered a natural extension of their body, and thus, completely legal! #tjpw

I don't know who made this, but I'm now reminded every day that they've basically rewritten Naoko Takeuchi's personal history in the public consciousness for the sake of social media engagements with only a single post, and that's so bizarre. Is it that easy to do?
hold on, gang
By the time Naoko Takeuchi began Sailor Moon, she was already a well-respected award-winning artist, having already written three series along with a handful of one-shot stories. She also had many friends, which is what inspired her to write a girl team-up manga to begin with.
