In the '70s, Hayao Miyazaki tried to revive the cartoons of his youth. And he kept mentioning Fleischer's Mr. Bug Goes to Town.
He loved its animation and use of "space," and the physical way its characters navigate its world. We look into the story:

more work on the BTS portraits: Cleaned up Suga (Black), smoothed out Kim Tae-hyung (Green) and Jungkook (purple started as a drawing and then worked on in Krita but different approach. Putting the color on top instead of starting with a paint layer.
