The opening sequence is very reminiscent of Hiroyuki Imaishi's work at Studio Gainax and Studio TRIGGER. It helps that the man himself did the storyboards. The cartoon also has animesque style characters due to the fighting game and Shōnen anime
influences. The Owl House leans Western in its character designs and facial expressions, but has some obvious anime influences regardless, such as the large, expressive eyes, colorful hair on several characters, and the Trapped in Another World plot heavily mirroring isekai works. Disney+ even lists the show under its 'Anime' tag! Ozzy & Drix was based on an American movie and animated in Korea, but came out during the rise of anime-styled shows, so looks animesque. The Pirates of Dark Water would weave in and out of this trope due to
having Tama Productions among its studios. The pilot miniseries had a little extra work by Madhouse. Popples: The children have randoseru backpacks, the "ViVi" magazine in "A Hair-Raising Experience" has Japanese writing on it, and Party has Wide Eyes and Shrunken Irises after very loud music is blasted into her
ears by her radio at the near-end of "Pop Goes the Radio". The Powerpuff Girls (2016) has an anime-inspired sequence in "Power of Four" where the girls transform into one big glowing Powerpuff Girl and fight a monstrous version of Him. A Japanese
song plays as this occurs and a girl takes off her glasses to show off her purple "anime eyes". Rainbow Brite made use of Japanese-outsourced animation, and it shows, especially the big eyes and thick eyelashes (which even the boys sport).
Mashiba suggested that they continue sparring, but Ippo claimed that he is all beat up, and while he has some gas left in the tank, he is not an active boxer, so he doesn't have the mental stamina or focus to keep going. Mashiba told him he is fine since he said he still had some gas left Ippo thought of how he just came to the gym to be helpful, so he wished that Mashiba wouldn't use this situation just to harass him because he was visiting Kumi the other night. Ippo stomped his foot down and let Mashiba know he is ready to fight. As their second spar began, Ippo and Mashiba were fighting at close
range when Mashiba knocked legs with Ippo. Ippo yelled at Mashiba for it, but Mashiba told him it wasn't on purpose. As Ippo landed a right uppercut, the Tōhō coach yelled at Ippo since he switched to orthodox, which Ippo apologised that he got carried away. Ippo and Mashiba continue having a close ranged brawl that cause their mouth to bleed. Ippo and Mashiba argued about Kumi while fighting at close range until they hit each other with a dual exchange consisting of Ippo's left to Mashiba's head and Mashiba's right to Ippo's head that hits directly, causing Ippo to fall down and declare that he is done, ending the spar. Ippo got up and left the ring to talk to Mashiba's sparring partners to give them tips. Ippo wished Mashiba good luck on his title match and left the Tōhō gym with Itagaki, who was amazed Ippo fought Mashiba for seven rounds. Mashiba left the gym and calls out to Ippo.
One copy sold on eBay for a whopping $900 back in 1998, and in 2002, bids for the game on a private message board escalated to more than $5,000. Joining Metal Slug and Kizuna Encounter in limited release during 1996 was the final installment of SNK's popular soccer series, Super Sidekicks 4: Ultimate 11. There are no official numbers to verify the total production run for Ultimate 11, but anecdotal evidence suggests that there may be even fewer copies of it floating around than there are of Kizuna Encounter. Kizuna Encounter is the Honus Wagner card of
NeoGeo home console games. Today, the game is worth roughly $5,000 and is a target for many counterfeiters. (Photo courtesy of the NeoStore. ) In addition to SNK's ultra-rarities, many third-party releases, such as ADK's Twinkle Star
Sprites and Sunsoft's Waku Waku 7, became impossible to find barely days after they were released and tend to incur significant bids on Internet auction sites. For 1997 and beyond, SNK embarked on two new ventures, achieving mixed success in the process. The first of these was the Neo Print photo sticker machine, which you can still find in a number of malls and arcades to this day. If you've ever seen a photo booth that purports to let you take your picture with a variety of colorful frames and cheerful backgrounds, chances are it's a Neo Print machine. Less successful was the company's Hyper NeoGeo 64 hardware.
