Why did anime drop the 80s shading? It looks so good
>>283208401I'd say it has more to do with time constraints than money.
>Isekai slop>Made by SunriseWTF?
>>283208433>Sunriseyeah that's kind of what makes this one worth watching, just for the visuals and animation budget.
So how gay is this after all?I require a 0 gay % to watch something.
>>283208813Kinda gay specially the way he interacts with his knight mentor guy
>>283208821Thanks for being sincere.It really looks great and I really wanted to give it a try, but man, I am not into fujo (even if just fujo bait) stuff.
>>283208320The shading is nice and all but can we also take a moment to appreciate that well-drawn hand?
>>283208847not him but the mentor knight dies in episode 2, so it's a non-issue really
>>283208452Those Anya reactions are pure Kino.
>>283208320Nips get pennies for their work, it's not worth going the extra mile to make it look good.
>>283209750What's so bad about it?
>>283210000it's so fucking mediocre and boring. you must be a low iq faggot to even watch this past the second episode. even gook leveling is far better than this trash
>>283210037How is it mediocre and boring
>>283210056kill yourself, retarded faggot
>>283210056Watching Twilight tier light novel trash breaks your brain. Don't be like this nigga.
>>283208320It's probably more expensive to make, it clearly looks like it takes more effort and that almost always means it costs more money.
>>283210070How is it mediocre and boring?
Always funny when retards think throwing more money at people can somehow make them draw better
>>283211370The more budget and time being spent onto an animethe better I'll look. That's why anime studios prefer making movies, and they turn out better.
>>283211370(You) wouldn't even be allowed a seat at any professional animation sweatshop if you can't at least draw at that level, so it really is a matter of allocating enough money to allow enough artists enough time to reach a standard of quality for 20 minutes at 12 frames a second
>>283208813All anime is gay
Just how much of a miserable loser is MC if the premise is>wah I'm such a loser I don't stand out and I just blend in wherever I am>...which makes me the perfect assassin! I can watch trash for the sake of a cute elf but a cringe MC ruins it
>>283208425If they had the budgets, they could hire more staff and then time is irrelevant. Also more modern tools would probably help.
>>283208320>Hitachi Mitsubishi Lawnchair Boku no Pico no Nihongo NetorareI hate these titles with every fibre of my being.
>>283212436The protagonist isn't cringe, he's edgy.
>>283208320Is this truly 80's shading? Seems more like a 90's thing to me. 80's anime was more crude compared to the artistic peak in the 90's.
>>283208425it has to do with talent shortage and outsourcing
>>283213517edgy is cringe unless it's the butt of a joke
>>283208320God Eater Anime has 80/90 anime shadingAlso that Isekai Lookism Anime has that too
>>283213471most sites that aren't subsplease will let you toggle to titles that are in a language you understand if they aren't there by default
can't believe they would waste two tone shading on season filler
>>283208433My man, Sunrise invented isekai.
>>283208401>>283208425>>283213463It's not money, it's greed. They're determined to spend as little as possible to maximise their profits as much as possible. Everything that is not completely essential is cut.
>>283211370Yes? More budget means more available staff. More staff means less workload per person. Less workload means more time available to animate each scene. More time means grater possible quality control.Really, the only people who truly, really need to draw well are the director, the background designer and the character designer. The rest of the staff are just stylus monkeys who mechanically draw the states in between the key frames without any thought or creative input.
>>283213463>more modern tools would probably help.Or, more likely, hurt. Modern tools make people lazy and dependent on them, and also enable more cost cutting, which hurts the quality. The ultimate example of this is the transition from hand drawing to digital drawing in the 2000's.
>>283208320Is this worth watching?
>>283208320Does it look good? I don't think it is a particular improvement or detriment.
>>283208320>elf's facial expression seconds before the rape
>>283214082Yes, absolutely
>>283213913imo those flash-animated half-anime that we've gotten for a few seasons look way better than the lower budget isekai, while being cheaper to produce and less stressful on poor animators, and more studios should just do them instead of making their derpy slideshows by hand
>>283214096Do you need other people to tell you what looks good?
>>283208320Shame they wasted these godly visuals on some generic isekai shlock
>>283208433These shill morons are not even trying anymore
>>283214242Not sure where you got that from. I don't think it looks "good." It's just another style. I can't understand why some people consider it superior.
>>283208433I wish Berserk 2016-2017 and the 1st season of Kingdom were animated by surise intead of this slop
>>283214082+ Cute elf.+ Good production values.- isekai slop
>>283214150I dont like ntr/rape in isekai, what is that slime?
>>283214867The elf got eaten by a slime.The MC stabbed the slime, killing it.Pic shows the aftermath.
>>283214867There is no ntr/rape in this series, its vanilla.
>>283214807>Cute elfI'm sold
>>283215043>got eaten by a slimeJFC how low level is she?
>They are mad his fav series dont look good
>>283215043Nevertheless, the animators knew exactly what they were doing. Don't try to deny this.
>>283214150Man that shading is great
>>283208320>Actual shading and depthPlease don't make me watch Isekai slop.
>>283216405Tell me what highbrow anime you are watching that this is slop in comparison

>>283213855The director needs to be able to draw well? Tf are you on about??They only need enough draftsmanship for storyboards
>>283216985Storyboards are the cartoon.
>>283208320I do like the look
>>283217144even this will suffice as far as storyboards goyou do not need high level draftsmanshipnot every director is satoshi kon
this anime is absolutely awful thoughunwatchable
>>283217633Stop dodging your 3 day ban.
>>283208320 HFK
>>283210037yea this, sunrise baka.... how is this shit even possiblewaiting for macross
>>283208320This looks pretty good but how is the story though?
>>283217652what's he banned for?
Why nobody ever post webms.
>>283217896Racism.
>>283217879It's very generic as far as isekai's go. However, this is just episode 3 and the story develops at a breakneck pace, so it's probably too early to judge the story.
>>283217879Failure Frame but worse in every single aspect.
>>283217879after reading the title and watching first 2 minutes for the first episode, you can expect it to be oriented about assassinations and assassins but it's generic isekai so far with a generic OP MC, who has a little to do with assassins despite one skill "conceal presence". I wanted it to be more about assasinations and darker.
>>283218386He looks like the so͘ylo levelling faggot
i'm getting it now because it looks prettybut i may regret it because isekai sloppa
>>283218593maybe on this screenshot but he isn't that triangle
>>283218386it's very cliche because it's a throwback to 2017.only production value does anything in this show.
>>283218805oh I expected it to be younger, well too bad the studio didn't rewrite it more
>>283218593He is the exact same character. In spite of the impression the posters here might have created, he doesn't care much for the elf, either.
>>283218889If they hated it so much, they would've simply adapted something else.
>>283218921if they already throwed bags of money for the animation they could improve the story as well, I don't believe directors didn't thought that it's generic
it looks so goodwhy does it have to be yet another trashy isekai with retarded title
HFK
>>283219004It's literally an adaptation of a light novel. How is Sunrise supposed to change the plot?
>>283218805In what way has the isekai scene changed since 2017?I assume that crowd is very sensitive to rehashes that don't stand out in some way.
>>283219177when will the cat turn small
>>283219190you remember that 4chan to reddit to 9gag shitpost?the newer the novel is, the more rehashed and crossbred it will become, while old works will look like simplistic and dull tasting blueprints.
>>283219004Generic is not bad.In fact, generic is great.The market is saying this, not me.
>>283219177>the brave's
>>283219371jp man dont know english anon
>>283219177is there a law that forbids you to rewrite a source material?>>283219343frieren is not generic, if you think so you missed the point while watching
>>283219426thanks for telling that you are a retard
>>283219426Frieren is the most generic fantasy since Lodoss.
What really boggles my mind is that this show isn't receiving nearly the push that would be warranted by its gigantic budget. It's trailing behind some literal imouto trash, what the fuck?!
>>283219502The waifu will sell to much and save this anime
>>283219190This already stands out big time due to its visuals. No need to rape the story.
>>283219549Cat > waifu
>>283208320>>283208433>>283214778It's not fair...
>>283219554If the story is shit then it deserves to get changed. And the story is indeed shit.
>>283219502What is the budget and what's your source?
>>283219745>What is the budgetmore than 99% of this season
>>283219745I think he's just doing that thing where he sees a pretty frame and assumes it cost a lot of money
>>283219764 you think one frame man cost more than this
>>283219784the first season of OPM was reported to have cost standard rates for seasonal animeit was the passion of the animators that made it so goodwho's to say this series doesn't just have a bunch of rabid elf fags who are finding lots of ways to maximize the quality with the resources they have
>>283219699Not a single person thus far has managed to explain why exactly it's "shit". Assuming that it's not a single shill samefagging up a strorm, which I assume it is because of extremely similar language used.
>>283219893>rabid elf fagssure anon sure
>>283219893>who's to say this series doesn't just have a bunch of rabid elf fags who are finding lots of ways to maximize the quality with the resources they haveBecause it's not an elf anime?
>>283219970How long was his screentime? 1.5 episodes?
>>283219692Kingdom got a real glowup though. It looks great now
>>283220016This is the shot they used for the trailer to promote the show
Please tell me that this doesn't turn into harem trash...
>>283220143monogamous elf love
>>283220143It's elf mono
>>283220172>>283220216As it should be
>>283220453Frieren is more like elf nihilo
>>283220049Alredy more than the elf
>>283220717It's about the same as the elf thus far, and he's not coming back
>>283219893So the animation became worse as the budget increased?
>>283208433Dude, Dunbine? Escaflowne? InuYasha?
Is there ANYTHING intellectually or emotionally stimulating in this anime? Anything at all? Visuals usually cant carry an anime on their own.
>>283221389Hey, Birth is remembered 40 years later even though it has an afterthought of a story slapped on
>>283221389Protagonist's mentor was murdered in cold blood. Seriously though, why are you expecting emotional scenes three episodes in, just after the main cast was finally introduced?
>>283221315All of those are older than the person you replied to.
>>283221445They are older than me but I'm aware of them somehow
>>283221442The audience gets no chance to feel any sort of emotional investment in him or his death because he's just not that interesting. He's also onscreen for all of 6 minutes
>>283221510It's episode three. I repeat, why are you expecting emotional scenes already?
>>283208320Style preference
>>283221294
>>283208433literally the studio that did some of the best isekai before the genre was even cool and the norm.
!
>>283223583
>>283223583Is this how elves attract mates?
>>283218013shit frame was complete garbage lol, delusional hipster troll
>>283221424Birth presented the some very unique concepts even for its time, as well as having decent visuals. If this anime is just another generic fantasy isekai, nice visuals would just be like putting lipstick on a pig. And if I really want some old fashioned visuals I could just go and watch older anime. Thats why I ask. Im not shitting on this show, I just want to know if it has anything substantial to it at all.
>>283223812You can't have old fashioned visuals AND modern quality. Unless it's a movie or a famous OVA, the old style is going to be paired with worse animation and a grainy picture. And there really isn't an inconceivable amount of old movies and high end OVA's, so you're going to run out of them quicker than you think if you're really keen on the retro style.
>>283214082Depends. Production values are good but it is isekai and plot seems mildly rushed. All and all i guess you could do far worse than to give this a chance considering the season.
Dies he PLAP the Elf?
>>283208813It is extremely gay. Because it includes you, the watcher.
>>283221510wrong, he was so fabulous i already miss him.meanwhile i feel the elf is too easy. it must be all about being saved from certain death, but the 0 to 10 romantic attraction is too sudden.the cat was also a bit too quick to open up.overall the knight is most likeable for now.
>>283224519Knight really had no reason to quickly help Akira either, they all like him because he is protag. Elf interest is the most justified though.
>>283219012Hope they retain this artstyle for something else. Need to make buzz about it that there's market for this style
>>283224623>they all like him because he is protagmust be it.then tsukimichi's author decided it's stupid to do it like this so they started makoto as an "outcast".
Tolkien's sins are numerous... Whole generations are now ruined!
>>283224855Unironically thisI'm so sick of elves So sick of European medieval knightsSo sick of dungeonsGive me a fantasy world inspired by Aztec or Mayan mythology
>Multiple Ansatsusha threads in a single weekWas that really all it took? Replace the ikeman with an elf?
How the fuck do japs not have isekai fatigue yet? It's been a solid decade of slop by now.
>>283224932>Aztec or Mayan mythologythere is about one. rokka no yuusha.>dungeonstrue, they're not good at this frequencyi would like more weird jrpg high fantasy with airships and dwarven cog fuckery. let's go back to 2000.
>>283224996My hunch is that they do have isekai fatigue, but they're not the main consumers of Japanese media anymore. There's a big wide world beyond that tiny island nation and it's full of consumers who need their fill of narouslop.
>>283224932Do you just assume anyone with a sword and shield is European?What else are they supposed to use?
>>283224955It is a pretty hot elf
>>283225138it was a pretty hot ikeman though, too.
>>283225118What a strange assumption to make based on that post
>>283224519The knight is gone, forget about him
>>283225225he lives on in my kokoro, still mogging characters on the screen.
>>283224932Aztec or Mayan fantasy needs to exist in the first place in order to be adapted into an anime, and it doesn't. Not even the Mexicans care about this shit.
>>283225250Actually the Mexicans ripped native Mesoamerican culture to pieces and used it to decorate Spanish culture creating a new hybrid culture.Do you think Day of the Dead has anything to do with Catholicism or Spain? No. It's Mesoamerican. The Mexicans actually have a brutal side to their culture that was inherited from Mesoamerica.
>>283224955Try "multiple threads in a single day">>283220581
I think Tolkien inspired settings are fine.It's video game mechanics and needlessly turning thins into isekai that I have a problem with.Mushoku Tensei made the isekai element vital to the plot and made the world immersive.SAO did have video game mechanics, but that's because it was literally a video game so the setting justified it.This slop though? It's never going to be great. It has foundational flaws. No series that does this can ever be a true hit.
>>283225325You can quote well-known trivia all day, but it won't spawn Aztec fantasy into existence.
>>283225626Are you one of those "out of sight, out of mind" types?
>>283225644Are you one of those "moron" types?
>>283225721You should be able to tell. It takes one to know one, after all.
>>283224855this show has nothing in common with lotr>>283225013rokka no yuusha is not mesoamerican fantasy past the first few episodes
>>283224955No, with a cat
>>283225768>past the first few episodesi give you what is, anon. i was very surprised it happened at all as i watched.>nothing in common with lotrtolkien works decided what high fantasy looks like today.
>>283225879not in the leastjapanese fantasy is based on wizardry, which is based on d&d, whose author was very vocal about his dislike of tolkien and preference for sword&sorcery
>>283225948>vocal about his dislike of tolkienwho released his world decades before dnd, becoming the point of comparison.
>>283225948If that was true then more MCs would be barbarians.
>>283225988To be fair the father of Erdrick in dq3 does look barbarian like. The problem is that everyone else has the Knight aesthetic.
>>283225982fantasy is much older than tolkien>>283225988not necessarily, all of the original classes come from classic sword&sorcerygygax's one concession to tolkien were elves and dwarves as classes
>>283219012It’s the exact same type of series and artsyle as the anime back then that you’re dickriding. I don’t know what else to tell you
>>283219012Screenshots makes me think of Lodoss Wars, wish they used it for some high-fantasy anime original or something.
>>283208867kira...
>>283226200>high-fantasy anime original404 not found
>start this>entire class gets isekai'dI'm sick of this. Rarely done with anything interesting, either the classmates are sociopaths or it's a SoL.

>>283227550Stop being a retard
>>283227561I don't care what you have to say, KYS.
>>283227550I dropped MT after 1 episode. I still recognize that it's popular.
>>283226945Nah, it's semi-common. -ASSS-Instant Death Guy-The loner dude-The edgy poisoning guy-The slavemancer guy-The healer NEET guy-The orphanage guy-The teddy bear elf one is also a class summons (MC in that is so forgettable I don't even remember what edgelord power he got)And that's off the top of my head. There are a few others that involve group summons, but technically not "class summons", like evasion healer, the walking dude, and so on.
>>283227594this is still forced animation btw
>>283225988Barbarian aesthetics happen to be gay in Japan.
>>283227629>I dropped MT after 1 episodeHuh, you basically didn't even get into the isekai bit.

>>283228564It's safe to assume elves know what humans think of their women.
>>283228586The dirty secret is male elves think their women are ugly as shit and would rather fuck a treant than moldy elf pussy. Elf whore houses probably have no elves.

>>283224996China and America are keeping isekai afloat. JNC has mentioned they've had multiple series that performed better in English than Japan. Also anything isekai will sell a couple thousand copies digitally regardless of how good or bad they are. Meanwhile, Alphapolis has made no secret that many of their series target China as a market.
