I'm pretty sure the 'damaged girl' look originated with her.

Wait really? I only ever watched a single episode of Evangelion but I don't remember seeing any of the multitude of Rei-related internet media elsewhere with an eyepatch.

Is this show all about a big smug lady loving people up? Because I would watch that show.

The show you want is Black lagoon. This one is about 5 or 6 different smug ladies with big arms shooting people in the face

Nah, Chequita works for the main character's brother so she only shows up once in a while. She's always a highlight when she does though. Though the main character has her own big smug lady that fucks people up so there's that I guess.

More psychopath than smug, really. Still awesome though. And hilariously well-built.

Took me a couple views to realize she catches her with a knee strike first, then follows through with the roundhouse kick. Chequita owns. :allears:

To play devil's advocate, they might have intentionally made it look blocky and weird like that.

This was my first assumption as well. I'm not a great fan of the CGI/look of Tron: Uprising either, but I assume they went with that design intentionally as well. Don't be so quick to judge a style. And I might be stealing that avatar if I can scrounge up five bucks.

Looks like they tried something midway between the original comics and the Star Wars CG series.

The way the arm moves is reminiscent to stop-motion/claymation. I thought that was the style they were going for, but I haven't actually seen the show. I might check out. I was a big fan as a kid (as most kids were that grew up in the 90s).

Honestly, if you don't have a Pixar/Dreamworks level budget, chasing after fidelity is simply going to result in a bunch of creepy shiny plastic people.

Hence, if you're going down the CGI route (with all its animation and directing advantages), you may as well stylise your characters into caricatures.

That's just my lovely editing skills. The show is pretty well animated for the most part even if they do take some shortcuts here and there. I think it's the best looking CG cartoon on TV right. But that's not saying much since the only competition is Transformers Prime and that Clone Wars cartoon.

In all seriousness, the animation for the show looks super slick the majority of the time. Those interested in the show can check out its' TVIV thread here: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3509959&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1
