Krusty looks like he might kill someone.

He's not the only one. Look at Otto, Willie and the twins.
Most of them look downright creepy.

This person's a really good artist. Here's an anime version of Futurama:


And, conversely, a Simpsons version of "My Neigbor Totoro":

Why is it that Mr. Burns looks like the least evil person in that picture?

HYPNOTOAD!


I think this picture captures "Futurama" perfectly...especially Zapp.

To me, just Bart Lisa and Marge look Japanese anime. The others more or less look like American drawings.

I was going to say almost the same thing. Only Bart and Lisa really look Anime, the others look more like something in an American comic book.

It would be funnier (and more accurate) with Lisa flashing her panties.

Lisa's dress would be a lot shorter, and she probably would be raped by Kang and Kodos' tentacles.

Looks like the artist just landed himself some jobs thanks to all the internet buzz over his picture.

Thats pretty cool that because of internet linking that artist got a job.


Hopefully it is on something "Futurama" related in the future.

Not at all what I expected...I guess I was expecting more of a kiddie anime style, not that creepy crap.

Cool pictures. I hope they do an Anime style opening sequence like they did with the real-life one.

I think the 'creepy' factor is because the artist was sticking with the same expressions the characters had in the original picture. At least as far as Krusty and Willy are concerned. The only ones that look too menacing in contrast to the original pic are Otto and the twins, but that's more of an interpretation of those characters eye shapes and brows (and Otto's overbite), I think. Some things just don't translate as well between styles, maybe?
