Welcome to the Sakuga (Or: Awesome Animation) Thread What is Sakuga? Sakuga written as '作画' in Japanese has a literal meaning of 'drawing', 'image', or 'working drawing'. However in regards to this thread it takes on a slightly different meaning where it refers to exceptionally animated scenes, usually through the work of a talented animator. Such scenes are a result of the unique nature of the Japanese production line. You can read some excellent articles on the matter below. The animation process: http://www.pelleas.net/aniTOP/index.php/the-anime-production-line http://washiblog.wordpress.com/2011/01/18/anime-production-detailed-guide-to-how-anime-is-made-and-the-talent-behind-it/ Alright, I can get behind cool animation. But how do I identify it? A decent place to start is This Panel from ACen 2013, it has a basic introduction to the concept of sakuga as well as a primer on the tells/styles of some of the most prominent animators in recent times such as ADTRW Favorites: Yoh Yoshinari, Hiroyuki Imaishi and Takeshi Koike. I can sort of identify it now, but, is there a list of sakuga shows? The nerds at #sakuga on rizon have compiled This handy list of shows from the last 4 decades considered to have outstanding animation or choreography. Note that it’s not by any means a complete list and it may be biased by tastes and/or preference for certain animators.

Tuxedo Catfish posted:I'm seeing a lot more extremes on that list than I am "middling" anything. I'm guessing neither of you can actually read, that list does not give a poo poo about the show being "Good" or "Bad". It's all about the shows having outstanding quality of animation. How hard is it to understand that?

Considering gems like: SALT CURES HAM posted:Wait, am I missing something here? I mostly know Obari because he's obsessed with huge tits and makes hentai. Why the gently caress do we want him to come within 500 miles of anything Pacific Rim related and what does he have to do with SRW? I would take anything you say on the subject with a massive grain of salt. Since you clearly don't know what you're talking about.
