For some reason whenever I think “Michiko to Hatchin,” I start typing “Hachiko to Mitchin” instead. Damn you Hachikō!!
Anyways, new wall:
For a new walling project:

In all seriousness, I’ve picked up Michiko to Hatchin again and enjoyed it a lot more than when I started the first episode way back when. Maybe it’s because of the volunteering trip that I recently did, but having spent an extended period of time in a developing country I’ve gained new appreciation for how this series sensitively portrays issues of poverty, gang violence, etc. Also as many have pointed out, there are many stylistic and plot similarities between Cowboy Bebop and Michiko to Hatchin. And, well, any series that comes within striking distance of Bebop’s golden standard of awesomeness will get a certain amount of love from me.
In a way I’m surprised that Michiko to Hatchin is so underwalled because of how stylish it is. If you’re not convinced, check out this OP – one of the best I’ve seen in recent years. And in fact I’ve hoarded away quite a few other MtH screenshots from the OP. With any luck, I’ll crank out a few more of them in wallpaper format sometime in the future.
