TV ver. Only difference between TV and DVD is on DVD all the photos land face up (http://i.imgur.com/kLOflq6.png) (which I think doesn't look as good personally).

I'm rewatching the series on DVD but I have the TV version on my computer, which is what I use to upload here. Most of the TV-->DVD changes in this series in my opinion are for the worse (and it's not just bias from being used to what I saw first; I saw the DVD version first), sometimes subtly, like is the case here, and sometimes dramatically, like the stuff in 02 #07. Sometimes it's interesting to compare, even though that comparison is happening incidentally here (I'll watch an ep on DVD, then maybe want to post a cool cut and then notice some change from the TV version.)

Many (but not all) of the 'big' cuts from this series have been put up, but there's a lot of great stuff here that's a lot more low key, but still very interesting. I'm trying to catalogue those because I think people should see them too, in addition to the famous/infamous ones.

When I saw this, I just kind of cold identified it as Tanaka, wasn't even really looking for that kind of thing at that moment, but it really jumped out at me. It's got his sense of forms in space and angles, his kind of motion cadence (most evident in her facial expressions; there's a certian characteristic way that Tanaka's characters move to express themselves), and his ribbony patterning in the hair.

Looking up the credits, This episode in addition to #5 are what he's credited on, so it's not completely definitive, but I'd consider the combination very strong evidence that it's him.
