Kevin's a bad example, he's a good boy.
This is giving me some hope that they'll go back to adapt some older manwhas like Faeries' Landing and Snow Drop.
Where the fuck are her ears???

Crunchyroll love to not produce actual Japanese cartoons. Simps are out there, though, going on about how people should give money to Crunchyroll to "support the industry"! Watching your favorite shows on CR does nothing to support the specific staff that make the shows you like and make sure they get jobs in the future. "Supporting the industry" has become a vaguer sentiment, it basically just means "give money to the concept of Big Eyed cartoons being produced somewhere, by somebody".
Buy DVDs and merch if you want to support shows you like from a corporate standpoint, and there are ways to support actual "starving artists". All you are supporting if you pay money to Crunchyroll are spiteful subversive psycho hipsters who have "influencers" on a leash, so that they can spend millions on a hideous "open plan" office building. Crunchyroll not helping actual artists at all is common knowledge, but if you're an artist you'll probably be unpersoned and blacklisted from a dozen different industries for saying that on the social media platform of your choice.

Thinking about this some more, yeah, that's true. It's especially true for amateurs as a base. For example, I, an amateur just drawing for fun, drew a witch a couple years ago just off the top of my head because one: I needed to draw something, and two: it's just to get a "good idea" of what this potential rough draft of a witch might look like for something I would like to do in the future.
And I don't mind showing her off to prove my point because she's just a rough draft, I am most likely changing her design anyway (probably not her hair, though) and she's nameless for the time being.
Seriously, I came up with all of that within an hour (probably thirty minutes in actuality) because I was bored. I don't even remember what the fuck I was going with for her staff, like what her power even is. Maybe it's mathematical in nature, I don't fucking know. She's just meant to be an assistant for the boss lady (you can kinda see her bleeding through).
So it would not surprise me if that cat-girl and her staff didn't go through any drafts, they just went with the first character design someone (possibly Raye) shat out during their lunchbreak after watching Tokyo Mew Mew and rolled with it. Like aren't good character designs supposed to tell you at a glance a story or what their personality is like? She looks like a one-off villain-of-the-week from Sailor Moon, but the villain of the arc was too lazy to come up with something meaningful in their design and just decided to transform Luna because reasons.

Huh. So it's actually going to air. Still, doubt it's gonna last beyond one season. How many of you wanna bet they'll end it on a cliffhanger?

Look at that ratio.

I saw 2 comments mentioning it, but neither of them were necessarily speaking positively of it and one of them was talking about how nobody’s talking about it.

Yep. Compare and contrast with the Tower of God announcement on its just-started-this-month Twitter account.Checked the Twitter, it self-resurrected itself. (Ignore the loading video, browser's slow.)

Not to go off topic but anyone who believes that supporting CrunchyRoll is "supporting the industry" are either paid shills (like Mother's Basement) or are really gullible and naive.

Geez, back to CR, how is it that they labeled In/Spectre as an original, yet all the other shows they have on their site (like Eizouken) are not? They worried they'll be called out if they label every anime they get streaming rights to an "original"? I mean it's not like Netflix where they actually collaborate with and fund actual anime studios and their shows every now and again. Even Funimation got to co-produce an anime or two.
If HGS is Cunchy's best foot forward, then I fear for the rest of their planned and upcoming "originals".

Everything Crunchyroll says about supporting the anime industry is bullshit. You want to support the industry? Buy their merch. Buy DVDs direct from Japan and use fansubs. You don't need these fucks to support the industry in anyway. All they do is buy the streaming rights from a few large companies in Japan that own them for a lump fee and broadcast. The actual studios get a pittance of the money. Its always better to buy from Japan directly.

I really can't see this as anything but a mediocre kids show that would usually be on 4Kidz (if it was still around)/Netflix/Nickelodeon/Cartoon Network that somehow wound up on Crunchyroll, that's being advertised as anime because to do so otherwise would be against their brand, and the less that's said about why they have it, the better.
Once the next ""SJW Animation of the Year"" rolls around, it's pretty likely that neither side of the crowd talking about it now (Side A being people who hate CalArts style wokeshit and plan to ravenously tear everything about it to sheds just for that, Side B being people who are defending it from the aforementioned crowd) will likely discuss it ever again, because internet normies don't understand that the best way for something you don't like to fail is to just not give it any attention.

No one is going to watch hgs since the show will be buried under the more popular crunchyroll exclusive like tower of God and others.
They're way better shows than hgs without the woke bullshit.

That CR greenlit HGS to begin with raises way too many questions and makes me wonder what got rejected for it.

4KIDS would've attempted to make it watchable by rewriting the script around with weird puns and jokes. Would've pissed the creators off for working around the SJW narrative, but at least it would've gotten an audience.

The only streaming service I will ever support is Sentai. They get their audience, don't berate them and don't produce this shit. Everything else I will proudly and declaratively pirate. Crunchyroll, Funimation and their ilk are nothing but skid marks on the industry and every one who is employed by them deserves to be eating out of garbage cans on the street.

To be expected: both are based out of Texas. Its the same in Canada and California; actors move between different studios to maximize the amount of work available. It was also the case in New York City back when it was a center of anime dubbing. However, its actually much less common in Texas; there are plenty of actors who primarily only work for Sentai over Funimation, and vice versa. This is because Funimation is based in the Dallas area (in a suburb called Flower Mound), while Sentai is based out of Houston.

The Chazz it up joke was an amazing localization of a similar (and sort of convoluted) Pun in the Japenease.
