about
i produced this corru.observer / Legally Blonde animatic over the course of 2 entire months; started it on 2024-10-26, and finished + posted it on 2024-12-29. i initially wanted to publish it before xmas, but got sick and had to set my new deadline to the new year. oh, and you'll notice a number of corru observer characters are missing; this all happened before the release of EP4!
i love animatics, and got the idea after randomly thinking about an older one featuring Persona 5 characters. i've known about the song There, Right There! for a while now, and by all means people have made very fun animatics with it, but i've always felt they lacked... polish? so i decided to make the one of my dreams, crossing it with one of my favorite pieces of fiction.
