Center Neptune Control -

If I remember correctly, by the time II was made, Tatsunoko had switched to different cel paints or the old ones could no longer be reproduced. Some character palettes were more obviously changed up than others; Joe's hair out of Bird Style even borders on looking green sometimes (II ep.39), but ...

And he considers Katse human enough ...
