Guest tofu plushie Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Wowow, the art is certainly eye catching. Imma check back later. :3 Cool, comment back on your thoughts of the movie when you see it it's one of those hate-it-or-love-it movies... i'm on the OMG THIS IS A MASTERPIECE side. Yeah, some people may hate the the style the characters are drawn but, even then background and environment of the movie is pure eye candy. I actually really like the style personally of the way the characters are drawn, I think it's pretty unique and distinctive. I am glad you like it too^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
