It's the type of manga Goody really enjoys so make sense. Someone that isn't so into melodramatic teenage romance may not enjoy it as much.

You should know what CGI is, right...? The entire anime is done in it, not just the mecha parts, but the people too. CGI is terrible for mecha (unless its by Orange), and even worse for people, so I'm incapable of watching. Ofc its my opinion, but I hate CGI.

the anime is fucking brilliant, you should try to get over whatever weird way you're looking at it. it's very beautiful. i love how the characters are slightly lacklustre (because it makes sense) and yet the world is still so gorgeous

How can you NOT see that sidonia is 100% CGI?
Can I assume you watched Saekano last season? If so, go find the scenes where utaha's hands are typing on the computer, that's also CGI(and looked awful)

Idk, to me the CGI is just glaringly obvious(And CGI is typically relatively easy to spot unless it's incredibly well executed/integrated), the CGI in sidonia isn't absolutely awful though and i also understand why it was utilized, but i still think i would've preffered it to not be CGI

Another example was the incredibly awful CGI in Kill la kill:

wheres the cg , do u mean the eyes? to me its just the style and it blends fine....like, perfectly

2nd image it is too low res to stand out enough to care about but the floating effect isn't great (but you can barely see her feet moving anyway so to me she wud just be flying/floating anyway)

LOOOL Obata Takeshi(death note and bakuman) is back!

I love his artstyle, and not only that his current work also satiates my Gyakuten Saiban fandom(well its a little different but all the same)!

The whole first image is CG except maybe the background(hard to tell)

You asked where the CG was and we are showing you what it is. The whole anime is CG. It isn't some kind of "stylist choice". It's just what CG looks like lol. I think you really like the show and thus are making some kind of connection between the CG and the show itself instead of just viewing it for what it is. If they had a large budget and did it mostly drawn with well done integrated CG you'd like it even more.

Disney's movies like frozen are CG too, the budget however is on a completely different level and it feels much smoother and looks ten times better.

Most 3DCG in anime just stands out and looks off/wrong in an otherwise 2D environment, or rather, that's what a lot of people think.

You're obviously free to like CG if you want

Here, have a scene where there is both CG and 2D.
All the characters and the cockpits are 2D and regular animation, but the mechs and everything sorrounding them is CG.

You should be able to tell the difference + the CG in these scenes are top tier.

I don't personally hate CG though, as long as it's well done and blends in well.

Recent examples where it didn't blend in well:
Parasyte background characters
Saekano hands when typing on laptops

both of those really stood out to me when watching the shows.

I hate CGI too Sent. Don't really know of anyone that actually likes CGI, I understand why they use it but I hate when they use it. Sometimes I can just power through the shit CGI if I like the content though. Maybe if they weren't using CGI just to cut costs it would be fine but that's not what happens.


So you hate CGI but like KnK? ;P

Almost done with the fifth movie now. Have to break it because I have training now. Will watch the rest of it when I'm home. So far, the second and fourth movie outdid the others by far for me.

I think I remember Blizzard saying it took them 6 months of rendering to do their SC2 trailer clip. So yea the budget/time of Disney/Pixar movies are just orders of magnitude greater than vast majority of anime. Even then I still find the beautiful hand drawn stuff just looks better. Maybe it looks more romantic idk. Pity it's so dam costly to do stuff at that level.

edit: KnK has integrated elements done well for the most part. Come now follow the discussion! Glad you enjoying it. I like the 4th and 2nd a lot as well since it's mainly focused on the adorable Shiki :D. People say 5th movie is the best and one of the best anime movies to date. Don't know if I agree.

Kingdom s1 had awful CG. I think I wouldn't have finished it if I wasn't stuck in a BnB for the week doing work out of town.

etotama is doing that thing they done in show by rock where half way thru they jump into CG mode and deform the characters just for a "battle arena" scene. i really dislike this, it feels like the whole reason behind it is to sell a product (ie miniatures that look like the CG characters). its not as bad in etotama but still i am getting substance=0 alert here plus the battle phases are auto skip. heres what it looks like in show by rock fyi, completely obnoxious i thought . fuck CGI

look heres the ed tell me the whole point of this isn't to sell some miniatures




here's it in etotama

youtu.be/78pDIyyUPMI?t=778

obviously its a LOT better but i can't help but think there is no point to this than a pure marketing ploy

Anime is one big marketing ploy, most anime adaptions or anime based on existing franchises are just extended ads for a product, sometimes the source material, sometimes figures, sometimes toys, sometimes games

MJP, and other recent stuff by Orange, is like the only CGI in anime that I like. But when you go full CGI, and start doing people in CGI too like in Knights of Sidonia, Arpeggio, or that recent Cyborg 009 move, thats when I start having major problems. It just doesn't look right to me.
