Man I really liked the longness of the earlier episodes. XD Each one felt almost like a movie rather than a series, never a 'to be continued' at the end of it (well maybe there was but still, they were longer...) just the full experience right away. You rarely get those kinds of wholesome experiences these days, and the intermissions were fun bursts of creative endeavor too.
Not sure I actually felt that way before but in retrospect it does feel like everything's getting split up in smaller chunks these days, just like the pace keeps getting faster, time doesn't seem to be in such surplus you ever get a chance to really appreciate things the way you did, but anyway, I can do with this too, moving on...
Tentacles out of nowhere, intriguing character passing on the beach, the paintings on the wall, the color and all, it always gets pretty unique with this series! :D Been missing the humor too. Good to see y'all keep going.
Regarding the art style: is it still all down in Paint? New version of Paint? Seems to be changing.
On my way to part two...
