#finish my Daffy’s Southern Exposure review tomorrow! i’ll still try but my body has been hating me this month and making it hard to be

[ducktracy]

watched the special where Shin’s sister is born and it was very very very good. i wanted to archive this because the end is so good that screenshots don’t offer justice, but i also REALLY like the way they approached the topic of Shin becoming a brother. instead of going in this big cliched spiel about how he’s gonna be the best brother ever, he just says “i dunno” if he’s excited because how would he know? one of the biggest draws of Shin-chan is the believability in character acting, and that goes especially for Shin. i love how observational they were of how real kids act and behave and respond to things, and it shows especially here

plus some more beautiful stair animation from Sueyoshi, who makes his debut in the show here animating this episode
