jthrash's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tree in the clouds]

I know saying something reminds me of Studio Ghibli is a cliche at this point (and half the time, the art being compared to Ghibli movies doesn’t even look that similar), so I’ll say this reminds me of the hauntingly-beautiful opening shot in Macross Plus.

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with studio Ghibi 😕

[Super Mario Bros. Movie - Big Bertha]

Big Bertha is such a mean name to give a big, busty babe. At least I think she looks good, based on your fantastic rendition, I haven’t seen the movie or THAT scene since I was a teen.

[Super Mario Bros. Movie - Daisy and Yoshi]

This just screams “‘80’s anime.”

[TomBoy and FemJerry]

Hideki is the one bright spot in the portal to Hell that is Twitter. His music is, of course, fantastic, I still love the soundtracks to Air Gear, Jet Set/Grind Radio and both Sonic Rush games, and I’ve also bought a lot of mediocre indie games simply because they had one song by him—maybe two if I’m lucky.

Also, I’m sure Warner Bros. appreciates you giving them ideas for an all-female Tom and Jerry reboot when they inevitably Thanos-Snap almost a century’s worth of cartoon history because some 50-something NYT columnist decided to get offended by his childhood cartoons and make a single Tweet saying that it should be banned to save Roe vs. Wade or something, and apparently that’s all it takes for WB to do a “Disney” and hide from their past instead of just putting poorly-aged cartoons on a Blu-Ray collection and warning adult audiences that they haven’t aged well.

“Old media” farts telling grown adults like me that I’m too dumb to watch old cartoons without immediately becoming an axe murderer are obviously the opposite of Hideki on Twitter.

[(SET) Crash n' Coco sketches]

It blows my mind that we STILL don’t have a Crash Bandicoot cartoon that made it past the pilot—though I suppose the few episodes of Skylanders they appeared in kind of count. Crash looks like something out of “I Am Weasel/I R Baboon” (surely I’m not the only one that remembers that?) while Coco...looks pretty original, actually, can’t think of any cartoon characters that look like her at the moment. I love both of these!

[Ar tonelico-style Hibiki]

This is stunning!

[MMM! 001]

Relationship goals.

[Sailor DOOM]

Amazing!

[Gettin’ Freaky]

This is rad!

[Self-Portait]

Cute. Also, despite what the shirt says, I am tons of fun.
