Miyazaki’s visual storytelling thrives on a sense of flatness that doesn’t diminish but rather enriches his worlds. By compressing the layers of his compositions—merging the foreground’s details, middle ground’s action, and background’s context—he crafts images that feel like living illustrations. Take the Warawara swarming with dishes in "The Boy and the Heron" or the jubilant feast scene in "Spirited Away" : both are packed with vibrant details, yet the visual plane feels collapsed, like a tableau unfolding all at once. This "flatness" isn't a flaw but a deliberate technique, pulling us into the frame as if we’re unrolling a scroll of visual wonder. It’s not depth that Miyazaki aims for—it’s a sheer density of storytelling in every frame, a reminder that 2D animation’s strength lies in its ability to immerse without imitating.
So someone messaged me saying apparently this show DID air somewhere in the early 2000s, and as far they remember it has 4+ seasons?? They also sent me some more screenshots they were able to dig up, with captions too! Thanks anon!!
uhhhhhhh

Making jokes about Noir being colorblind/not understanding colors is how we cope with how unbelievably powerful his brain is
