The second season of Close Enough was funnier than the first one (even with that out-of-context clip that's been circulating on the internet). There's a little less focus on Josh and Emily (the JG Quintel character and his wife), and more screentime for Pearl, the apartment's tennant and Randy, her redneck son, who were mostly an afterthought on S1. It also devotes more episodes to Bridgette and specially Alex (probably the best animated thing Jason Mantzoukas has done), who gets the funniest episodes of the season. Stand outs: an episode in which Alex and Josh go back in time to prevent Alex's divorce, only ending with him fucking himself, a Die Hard spoof and one about a mysterious horse that everyone end up loving.
Two of the three OVA's of Yona of the Dawn, were pure, disposable filler while the third one focuses on Zeno, a character that was literally introduced in the last episode of the first season, and gives him this immortality storyline that reminded me of the Wandering Jew. It's better than the first OVA's, but isn't as poignant as it should be and definitively doesn't make up for the lack of a second season.

I was waiting for the shirt pic to load, was disappointed when it didn't, then realized I never needed a pic in the first place because I already knew 100% what the shirt looked like.

That is interesting, tho her original design and costume in the movie were more or less like the left image shows. She even juts out her chest at bizarre angles whenever possible and contorts her poor waist into, well, cartoonish positions.

Yup. I honestly didn't know it was from a porn site. And I believe people are making mountains from molehills here. The new design might not be "sexy", but it isn't, like, puritan either. She's a bit toonier, but still clearly with the intention of being seductive and shit (contrast it, for example, the Lola Bunny from The Loony Tunes Show). I'm 99% sure that if the new design had been the original one, there still would be an obscene amount of fanart (and porn) of her.Quoting Wryan (view post)

Raya is a lovely piece of work. No points guessing what the overall theme of the movie is when the word is spoken more than 100 times in the script, and some other dialogue is super on the nose, but there's also a lot of genuine feeling in this. It's warm, thoughtful and empathetic. The animation--whether character design, world-building or action--is also terrific. A certain choice made by the heroine at the climax is quite unusual and was just right. Thought this worked really well overall.
I must be crazy, though, cause I thought for a long time that Tiffany Haddish was the voice of the dragon, but she's not. I could have sworn I heard her name tossed around the movie early on. Dunno where I got that impression from.

Flying Lotus is also a showrunner and doing the music. I'm too stoked for this!
