Re: Art differences between series

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 ...

Re: Who is to be credited as the mastermind behind Gatchaman?

On another note and leaving that whole matter aside, I feel with how some information has become easier or more clarified over time (although some things will remain a mystery), it can be said there are a few different "masterminds" behind the franchise and other Tatsunoko works depending on what ...

Re: gatchamania site

Would he plan to import the old posts or fanfic/art libraries? There seem to be member-only boards that even the members can't get into anymore, going by some thread I saw. A lot of memories there that I'm sure some would want preserved or carried over. It's good that he's working on that idea, now ...

Yes, it looks like the sculptor girl was able to finish that Jesus head after all. It's a nice touch and nod back to the episode!
