GX 80 (WIP): Enter Despairland

Really would love to one day know the backstory behind why the clip we’re shown in the TV airing of GX episode 79 as a preview to 80 (Misawa researching the Alice in Despairland card to find this Alice [remarkably different from the Alice we’d ultimately get] right outside his window) was never actually included in episode 80 proper…

…but until then, as I’m working on finalizing my 77-79 subs, I did want to try and retain this clip during the “Just After This!” bit before 79′s card showcase, and to do so, I’m cleaning it up to remove the Japanese sponsor text along the middle of the shot–I originally wanted to try to remove the side “Just After This!” bars as well to make it fully textless (as was done with some help back with the Manjoume clip featured at the end of episode 24 that wasn’t in 25), but even if I asked for some help on that, I felt that–given the way Alice’s hair waves in the pan shot here, the lack of detail as the pan goes on and the hair blends into the night sky a bit, and the way the sky still moves a little behind her–that’d be near impossible.  Alas.  So, rather than giving up and just making a new “Just After This!” clip, I’m doing the next best thing to try and preserve this by just focusing on the Sponsor text and using solid bars on the side instead of the usual transparent ones.  Looks okay so far!
