So if you didn’t know Platina Jazz is a jazz album series of Japanese anime songs performed by Swedish musicians which are produced by Rasmus Faber. The fourth volume announced “Moonlight Densetsu” as its ninth track a while ago and we finally get to see the PV (Promotional Video). Douglas Unger is the singer.
Pretty snazzy I think.

There is a really problematic culture of artists underpricing their commissions online - though I’m sure this practice extends towards the ‘real world’. A fun fact before we start: the internet is actually part of the ‘real world’. If you don’t think that industry artists are…

Mononoke Soushi by Yousuke Takahashi
Mononoke Soushi is the surreal tale of Eye of the Hand, a beautiful entertainer with mysterious, supernatural powers. If you are in the game for profound, beautifully drawn short stories with a lot of references to traditional Japanese art, this is for you. I highly recommend it.
If you enjoyed this work by Yousuke Takahashi, I would also strongly recommend his one-shot The Time Milk Wound the Spring, a collection of profound yet humorous tales told by a young girl names Milk.
here are some panels from it, if you are interested.
If you know and love the work of Daisuke Igarashi, you will almost certainly enjoy these.

Hakama with : Floral hakamashita
Hakama (袴) are a type of traditional Japanese clothing. They were originally worn only by men, but today they are worn by both sexes. Hakama are tied at the waist and fall approximately to the ankles. Hakama are worn over a kimono (hakamashita).
There are two types of hakama, divided umanori (馬乗り, literally horse-riding hakama) and undivided andon bakama (行灯袴, lit., lantern hakama). The umanori type have divided legs, similar to trousers. Both these types appear similar. A “mountain” or “field” type of umanori hakama was traditionally worn by field or forest workers. They are looser in the waist and narrower in the leg.
Hakama are secured by four straps (himo); two longer himo attached on either side of the front of the garment, and two shorter himo attached on either side of the rear. The rear of the garment has a rigid trapezoidal section, called a koshi-ita (腰板). Below that on the inside is a hakama-dome (袴止め) (a spoon-shaped component sometimes referred to as a hera) which is tucked into the obi or himo at the rear, and helps to keep the hakama in place.
Hakama have seven deep pleats, two on the back and five on the front. The pleats are said to represent the seven virtues of bushido, considered essential to the samurai way. Although they appear balanced, the arrangement of the front pleats, (three to the right, two to the left) is asymmetrical, and as such is an example of asymmetry in Japanese aesthetics.
