it definitely gets bloodier than episode 1 but it doesn't ever get more shocking (what happens to the skull masked character is a bit of a step up, but in content and in presentation, than what's generally going down). it never really tones it down either, though, so if episode 1 was too much for you that wasn't like, a one off thing. if episode 1 was just barely under the line of what you can handle you should be ok, if episode 1 was just a little over the line i'd proceed with caution.

For what it’s worth, the person I was watching it with generally can’t handle gore, but because everything was kind of an instant thing and not “painful” (or sometimes even comedic) they were fine with it. First episode is definitely the exception and worst imo.

Also timing. Like literally a lot of the peeps that worked for One Punch Man's first season and... I want to say Concrete Revolutio? came down to "right place, right time" circumstances.

I thought SSSS.Gridman had some excellent CG fight scenes, it helps that they're robots instead of fleshpeople, but it looked quite alot better than alot of other CG robots. I think it really comes down to having the time to really make a good library of assets and a good way to light and color them to the directors' vision. And that to me sounds like a workflow issue: traditional animation has figured out an insanely packed workflow where everything is drawn up and produced just-in-time for airing, but CG workflows have yet to develop this optimisation.

the bandori s2 anime was pretty rough but they got a handle on it about halfway through andmanaged some pretty good emotional beats and direction. they got really good at using the 3d for comic timing too. tbh it's totally possible to make passable looking cg you just have to play to its strengths and hide its weaknesses rather than pretending its like a drawn anime, which is another issue a lot of full cg anime have. the berserk anime is a prime example of this, it goes for angles and shots that'd look fine in a 2d anime but show the imperfections of the models when its 3d.

As a fan of the show, one of the things I like about it is that I have no idea what it's about. A lady gets a job at a radio station and some things happen. I have no idea what the story actually is or where any of the plot threads are going.

In fairness, I believe that part of the issue is that actually animating the sort of rigs that Arc Systems uses is uniquely hellish. IIRC, the average model uses something like 400-600 bones and has about 40k tris. That's probably acceptable when you just have to make a set of canned animations for a video game, but dynamically animating them for an entire series might be more expensive than simply dumping in a larger budget for 2D.

Aikatsu had it's 3D scenes go from being DS level to some of the best on TV during the course of it's run so it's doable. Also Precure in the more recent movies also has some real good 3D cg too

Here's an example: I learned how to do audio recording via analog magnetic tape during my boyhood years. To the extent that it proved useful for my idiosyncrasies as a recording engineer because it made me less reliant on the whole cut & paste which forced me to be more proficient as a performer. Unfortunately, it also made my recording skillset a fair deal more limited, so even after having worked on records since 2001, when it came time to learn the things I now use pretty much everyday on the job, I basically had to retrain myself, which had to go beyond what I learned on music school and whatnot.

The CGI in the new GitS is absolute dogshit but they finally put out the dub and I love the dub cast so I gave it another shot. I’m loving the story, and the bank episode was everything that I remember loving about the original SAC series, I just have to accept this is what the monkey paw gave me when I wished for more SAC. Also the dub cast still rules and I love hearing those voices again.

God dammit what a loving waste The CG in 2045 is far from the issue. You can tell it's an artistic choice they stuck to with characters redesigned to fit the medium, and on a technical level it's good. It's miles above 99% of other CG shows. The issue is the writing loving sucks and it tries to trade on the SAC name despite being nothing like SAC. Lemon-Lime fucked around with this message at 11:08 on May 10, 2020 |

Well the second half of SAC 2045 was certainly significantly better than the first half. I'd gotten used to the bank CGI by then and it actually felt more like a proper gits story once they got into the meat of the plot. Also I think the CGI actually really worked in episode 11 to amp up the creepy factor. Definitely a stumbled start, but I'm quite keen for some more. Also as mentioned above, the dub is out now and those guys rock. I might have to go rewatch the bank episode for peak Batou shenanigans Vahtooch fucked around with this message at 13:10 on May 10, 2020 |
