Listen, my poor old heart can't take that sort of thing even as baseless speculation.
i waited for a miracle for all of Frontier and I aint waiting anymore


edit: also while I'm remembering it, shout out to this series for using the penultimate version of Remember 16, which is of course the acoustic version. (the real best version is the western swing version from "Acoustic Fire" which I can't find on youtub)

They're never coming back because Kawamori doesn't want to do anything more with Misa, Minmei or Hikaru from popular account and he couldn't even if he wanted to. Minmei's VA Mari Iijima is unlikely to ever voice Minmei since people only cared about her for that role after the show while she was trying to make a career independent of it and she never really made peace with that by the looks of things and Hikaru's VA commit suicide in '93 or something. Given the industry reluctance to recast VA's and how iconic Minmei is I don't see them recasting her and she's unlikely to come back, and without Minmei there's no point going back to Hikaru or Misa.
Mika Doi is still alive and working so Misa Hayase confirmed for Lady M.

Minmei's VA came back to voice Minmei for one of the English dubs of the series (!!!!!) about a decade ago
it's crazy charming, too

It's also on Ultra Fire, and being the only FB album I own, I have to say that that version has worn on me so much that I really prefer the original
man that's a bad opinion. steel guitar makes everything better.

The compression is a bit poo poo, but it is YouTube. I think the action looks pretty cool in 60 fps, but I don't know if I could stomach the whole movie like this.
wait what the hell how does this work? they deffo don't draw 60 frames of animation per 1 second of screen time

also im deffo the guy that could stomach the whole movie like this, since the offical blurays are pretty dusty

I'm assuming it's the same process as the higher end TVs that merge two frames together to "double" the frame rate of whatever you're watching.* It's neat, and looks cool, but it's not necessarily the way it's intended to be watched.

* I don't really know poo poo about it, so I could be way off. :haw:
the sped-up pans make me think it's something like this

I bet we won't even find out who Lady M is. It's not super plot relevant currently.
