That was before Mariah Carey completely changed her image and became an extreme diva. *Coughs with 90's R&B nerd authority and pushed back glasses* She wasn't an extreme diva until mid 2000's. The 90's makeover happened because she finally felt enough confidence to break away from her controlling manager and ditch the good girl routine. *Goes back to reading the rest of the thread bitterly because I slept through the night* 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm willing to give it a chance. They know what they have to live up to. Unless this is supposed to be another 6 episode "season," I'll trust that this is just them knowing they'll have to pace themselves a little differently. At least they're still using the pillows for the soundtrack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, and back then folks lost their shit because she essentially 'pulled a Janet'. Janet caused a bigger brouhaha, but got dinged less once the drama died down. I think Mariah got it worse because while her appearance does receive a lot of focus, people have never stopped comparing her present self to her past range starting from the late 90's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That reminds me, I wonder if JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has a character named after Janet Jackson. We already know that Avdol named his chickens after Michael Jackson, Prince, and Lionel Richie (I'm surprised there wasn't a chicken named after Vanity!). I haven't skipped ahead to the 4th season to see all the all characters. Maybe later, I will do some snooping for spoilers. The next character to be introduced in Stardust Crusaders is Alessi. Judging from his hairstyle, he reminds me of Busta Rhymes from '96. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I was going by what was in the Japanese trailer. Correct. They actually showed the first ep of the 3rd series (FLCL: Alternative), since we're actually supposedly getting Progressive first and then Alternative second. Seems understandably confusing since, like you said, that Japanese trailer that was cut in half between both upcoming seasons, had them in the opposite order compared to how we seem to be getting them in the US. Meanwhile the US trailer combined footage from both to make one trailer for both upcoming seasons. I'd say Progressive also looks a little more familiar to the first show in terms of even more focus on over-the-top-ness, at least in that footage from the Japanese trailer to me. Demarco also tweeted that both Progressive and Alternative are rather different from each other, which is to be expected since they each have different staff, so they seem to be expecting that some fans will favor Progressive or Alternative or vice versa. https://twitter.com/Clarknova1/status/980305218935099393 https://twitter.com/Clarknova1/status/980611580571410434 On 4/1/2018 at 5:05 PM, CaptainStarwind said: I didn't think it was too bad.

I'm also glad it didn't do anything like "betray" the style or themes of the first show, which anime sequels weirdly tend to do sometimes. And for those who were waiting for a more familiar feel, I thought plenty of the classic feel started seeping in more toward end of the first ep as Haruko broke more into the story when she came into the shop (and the Pillows music started to get louder) and then at the end where she broke into the action. Given how that played out I expect the future eps of Alternative, beyond this first one, to be more crazy as their slice of life story further merges with the usual FLCL insanity.

Really?! Wow! You've got a lot of catching up to do. The JoJo's Bizarre Adventure franchise is a multi-generational series. Most of the characters are named after singers and bands from the last 1/2 century. Listening to the names of the characters always makes me laugh and wonder if any of them know, that there are cartoon characters named after them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
