Hello, everybody, and welcome back! Sorry for the long-ish silence, but as I said in a comment somewhere, I’m busy trying to write my Master’s Thesis and working as a freelance translator. I hope you can forgive me! If you’re still on board, let’s dive right into Episode #07!
- Let’s begin with a redrawn Tompeti! In this shot his ears have been recoloured and his eyes, mouth and forehead have been retouched:
- Zeppeli’s gruesome demise has been uncensored:
- Just look for yourself! This scene looks so different that I had to include a video or I felt that you wouldn’t even believe me:
- Once again, an uncensored Zeppeli:
- And a slightly retouched Jonathan (note his lil stubby fingers in the TV version):
- Here we have three brighter animations:
- In this shot, both Speedwagon and Poco have been redrawn:
- The more I look at Zeppeli in this state and the sadder I get:
- A New Weed:
- Jonathan has been completely redrawn here:
- Here, everything has a more dramatic light and colour:
- In this shot, Jonathan has been redrawn:
- …Yeah:
- JONATHAN IS WAY MORE UPSET IN THE BDS:
- And he’s been retouched again here; the onomatopoeia’s outline is also wavier:
- Another couple of brighter and sharper shots:
- Jonathan’s body and Zeppeli’s face are now in HD:
- Jonathan is less pouty and has better eyes here:
- Speedwagon’s eyes and mouth have been retouched:
- Here David production redrew Jonathan’s face and retouched Zeppeli’s mouth:
- Another Speedwagon redraw here; Poco’s ear has also been shaded:
- Another Jonathan and Zeppeli redraw, as in the previous shot (the lower right corner is also brighter):
- Dio’s head is slightly… Larger? This one is a bit weird:
- In this scene, they’ve uncensored the mother eating her baby’s face off (even though it was only a shadow):
- Everyone’s face is more shaded in this shot:
- Another couple of completely redrawn shots here (and for once, in the second shot I preferred the TV version of Jonathan):
- In this scene here, everything is redrawn and Jonathan walks in a different direction:
- upgrade_button_meme.jpg:
- Here, Dire’s head has been redrawn and the two straps at the bottom of Jonathan’s backpack have been removed:
- Dire’s face has been redrawn here:
- Another “just see for yourself” comparison here, folks:
- Again, pretty much everything has been redrawn or retouched in this shot; they even added Poco in a bunch of frames in which he was not visible:
- Everyone has a slightly retouched face in this shot; Poco and Dire have also been shaded better:
- Another difference-heavy comparison! Even the background has been tilted slightly:
- Everyone is drawn better here, and the camera is placed differently:
- Tompeti’s eyes are less kawaii uguu:
- And now for a couple of good ol’ credits differences! First off, they added animation supervisor 亀井眞也 (Kamei Shin’ya) to the credits:
- And in the next episode card, the title has been spaced a bit differently:
And that’s it for the Episode #07 comparison! I’ll try to put out at least a comparison per week from now on; I hope you’ll be patient with me! See you next week for Episode #08!
Bye!
