Are CGI Animated Music Videos the future of anime?
>>145283581
The only reason they use CGI is because it looks better than rotoscoping and is far cheaper than high frame rate animation.
It will be like that until they find a better way to capture dancing.

>CGI Animated Music Videos the future of anime
I don't want to live in that dark future.
>>145283581
I prefer low frame rate dancing
Cgi dancing is just damn lazy

Motion Capture?
>>145283581
Aikatsu's quality became quite good. It was horrific at first, like something from an original Playstation.
>>145283870
But low frame rate animation is based on QUALITY as a way to fool the viewer into thinking they see motion. Just look at fighting scenes in anime
>>145283581
Well, anime has no future and will die anyway, so it checks out.
>>145284828
QUALITY is by defintion unintentional. intentionally extreme expressions and off modelness is a different thing entirely (and in low budget anime, I'm ok with it, if you don't have the ability to animate smoothly and have to cut corners, at least make it entertaining to look at)
>>145283768
It's actually not really cheaper (unless they do use it to make to save costs of course).
>>145285897
They don't have to pay a lot of people to animate or go through the trouble of outsourcing the frames
They just pay a small team to do the motion capture and programing
>>145286087
The main advantage of CGI use is that once the motion library is set up, they can focus on making good dynamic shots and scenes from different angles.
That's very important for dance and music sequences.

It's too bad it didn't continue evolving with Stars! If anything it got downgraded.
Why do you think that's a bad thing?

>Individually packaged chips
Why would they do this?
It makes them a bigger efford to eat and it's bad for the environment.
>>145290238
Well, as you can see, the chips are still all clean and edible because they were all individually packed. Not even clumsy girls can ruin now your chip-eating experience.
>>145283581
Aikatsu is the only show that's done it well.

isn't this literally kids anime?
Why are you people watching anime for grade schoolers?
>>145292323
The first one you linked is grade schoolers-anime. The other two are Japanimation for older teenagers and young adults that airs at night.
>BanG_Dream
Literally who?
>>145292323
Crap, I meant the second in the middle.
>>145292659
>>145292549
they all look identical
>>145292323
The difference between late night moe anime and anime for little girls is not as big as one might think. Pripara, Aikatsu! and to a lesser extent Pretty Cure! all have aspects that make them possible to enjoy.
I personally enjoy them for them mainly for the young cute characters, the yuri-shipping and the CGDCT aspects.

Nigga, plz. Don't insult the aikatsus.

Mind you, becoming a mainstream little girls-show is what everyone in the anime industry strives for, because that's where the money lies.

A bunch of idols whose seiyuus really can play instruments, apparently. They're getting an animu at some time.
