description
A pixel / sprite-style animated explainer slide — full-bleed cream stage,
bold display year, animated pixel-art mascot (e.g. Hanafuda card, mushroom,
or 8-bit console), kinetic Japanese display type, ticking timeline ribbon.
Reads like a single frame of an educational motion video — looping CSS
keyframes, no JS, ready to be screen-recorded into a vertical video.
Use when the brief asks for a "sprite animation", "pixel-art video",
"8-bit explainer", "history of X explainer", "kinetic typography history",
"Nintendo-style", "精灵图动画", "像素动画", or "复古动画".

Sprite Animation Skill
Produce a single animated frame of an educational explainer — the kind you might screen-record into a vertical video. Pixel-art mascots, big year display, looping CSS animations, kinetic Japanese / English display type.
Workflow
- Read the active DESIGN.md (injected above). Pick the loudest serif token for the year, a sturdy sans for headlines, and a mono token for timeline / index labels.
- Pick the topic from the brief (e.g. "Nintendo · 1889 — Hanafuda"). You always need: a year, a one-line headline, an animated subject (a pixel sprite — character, object, or icon), and a short caption.
- Stage — full-bleed cream / off-white background (
#f5efe2) with a subtle paper grain. Keep margins generous; this is one beat of a video. - Top bar — small mono row:
- Left: title slug ("名次の/番組" or "EP. 01 / NINTENDO")
- Right: progress dots ("01 / 12") and a "REC" stamp
- Subject animations — at least three independent looping animations
on the page:
- Big year: the headline year (e.g. "1889年") fills the lower-left, in a serif display weight. It has a subtle vertical glitch / scanline
