Now, if anyone can remember watching Disney’s Tarzan this frequently? If so, remember that the Johnny Weissmuller movies were much further from the sources (except the canon elements) than even the Disney films and tv show. That’s why the Disney version has become the most accessible and successful depiction of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Tarzan brand in recent years, admittedly still loose but great enough not to offend most of the staunchest relative purists, who have forgiven the Disney version for that reason.  The same might not be said for the canonists, since they frankly do not publicly tolerate anything that’s not canon, which is perhaps why they still basically revise the frick out of canon Tarzan in order to keep the soul frying fanservice as the only intact point of the story, partly thanks to the Shōnen Jump meme worthy implications of the ERB Universe Tarzan being an orc-like destroyer of both humans and nonhumans alike.

However, it’s easier to understand that the Jungle Books are much undoubtedly like Nausicäa of the Valley of the Wind, if rather more values dissonant since Rudyard Kipling would rather have been a much more certainly fucked up person than even Hayao Miyazaki. 

Given that Kanada/Kozuma/Yamashita Pers-Kuns have diversified so much in terms of drawing styles available, we can now popularise newfound terms that focus on alternative Kanada/Kozuma/Yamashita Pers-Kun movements.  The influential Toriyama/Nagai/Shirato/Ishinomori diversification has now become something to gawk at in hindsight. This means it’s mainly due to its strong associations with Studio Break’s actual founding master Yasunori Miyazawa, perhaps the most batshit animator alongside the already more influential and relatable kinds of Pers-Kuns in modern postwar Japanese history. As though it’s hard to fully imitate the late Dragon Ball creator, Akira Toriyama is one of the most mockingly adapted, deprecated and appreciated of them all as well as Sanpei Shirato and Keiichiro Kimura, Kazuko Nakamura, and Shotaro Ishinomori as well as Go Nagai and Morihiko Ishikawa.
