  1. コメント英語ばっか!こんな凄い人が日本にいるんだ!日本のアニメって萌えばっかで、中高年にはなかなかついていけないけど、凄いの見つけた!

  2. It is a wonderful video.

    Thank you very much for introducing us to great artists. It is an inspiring channel.

  3. I definitely see his slavic inspiration. A lot of anime is empty eye candy targeted to make men and women attracted to the characters now. I mean, that's a huge part of art but I think it needs to get disrupted a bit.

  4. I love the work this channel does but this is by far my favorite. The man is a major inspiration for me.

  5. Wow!! An he's independent too?! That's freakin amazing!! I'm an aspiring animator, Mangaka & graphic novelist myself & I want to go the route this man is at.

  6. Estou cursando animação na faculdade e fico feliz vendo pessoas que trabalham ❤❤
