If you're going down on a woman and she literally starts growling like a tiger, wyd?

I think this turned out pretty good! The tongue movements, in the hands of a more experienced animator, would've taken like a day. In the hands of a moron, they were absolute murder, but I got there eventually.

The background was originally just gonna be pink, as sort of a joke about...y'know, but it wasn't visually interesting enough. The rainbow background is based on a frequently used "rage mode" background from the original Aggressive Retsuko shorts, which as far as I can tell, are only available subtitled into English on sketchy anime sites with a million pop-up ads. The characters are a bit different, right down to most of their names, but it's absolutely worth a watch, they're pretty funny. Retsuko is wayyyy more short-tempered lol.

I'm playing around with the video effects, as you can see. Aggretsuko makes frequent use of VFX that make the ragegasms looks all fuzzy and distorted, which I'm dipping a toe into emulating. Maybe I'll keep it, maybe I'll ditch it. Most likely I'll take another run at it using AfterEffects instead. I just worry about the animation looking too clean - Aggretsuko does a great job of using effects to make everything seem angry and distorted. I'm trying not to get too hung up on those final details for the time being, as I plan to finalize all the audio and video effects after everything's animated.

That little spin transition in the beginning is something that 3D animator TehSiNiSTAR makes frequent use of, and I really like his work, so I borrowed it as a sort of homage. I'm trying to mix up the way the scenes transition.

What else...oh! Retsuko's Mom is cast, her lines (well, line, singular) is all done, which is good since I'm finally approaching her scene at the end. Lalalexxi, the queen of moms and Nicole from my prior animation, is providing her voice.

Next scene's gonna be fun, so thank you as always, take care of yourselves.
