toei alweys liked long necks

are we going to ignore that the guy has a super long neck too?

I already lost faith in this movie.

Forget the long necks, Maki looks like she can hardly keep her balance on those heels.

Still excited, though. I always thought the Ken-lookalike in the trailer was a woman.

Sensei's weird-looking, though.

Dem long necks.

I was hyped for the movie, but knowing that Toei is directing this... Saint Seiya: Soul of Gold had crappy animation, I hope that they give a nice animation to the movie. But my hype has been lost a bit.

PS:

Lol, this.
