Please just... be supportive, OK?

This game is based on the famous Pili series which has like, over 1000 eps? these puppets have high articulation and the original voices were done by like 2 people.

unlabelledView post →Honestly between this post, TBSkyen’s commentary, and someone in a group chat going “This looks like Pili (from Thunderbolt Fantasy and the overall Pili/Pili Fantasy series) designed the cast,” I’ve come around a lot more on the designs.

unlabelledView post →I started TBF thinking the madness came mostly from Urobuchi. But the more I learned about other Pili shows, I quickly realized that Pili was at minimum MATCHING, if not EXCEEDING, the Booch's freak in many cases. Still the most incredible puppet show I've ever seen. Watch Thunderbolt Fantasy!

unlabelledView post →It's because it is. Fun fact: in the original puppet series (Pili), the character was silent, apparently having removed his tongue.
unlabelledView post →Okay so that's where the caveats come in cause me and my friends are raw dogging this show even though we are missing SO MUCH context since this seemingly another part of a long story Pili. Also the episodes are an hour long and the translation on YouTube is jank so viewer discretion is advised.
unlabelledView post →So long ago Toonami aired a show called Wulin Warriors. It is a dubbed version of Pili from Taiwan, It was canceled cause of ratings but you can watch it on YouTube. Sean Schemmel plays the character Scar and it is like Crazy! Haha! (Rewatching currently and laughing hard)
unlabelledView post →This episode of Pili I'm watching has 2 people fighting with daggers in a sealed iron box. It's literally a knife fight in a phone booth. This show is too good.

Otherwise oof. #WNBA
unlabelledView post →I would strongly suggest giving this show a try; there's just nothing quite like it in the current anime landscape, and it really is the only Pili show that has a wide distribution in the West
