Only when it's done as a stylistic decision (Etotama for example) instead for saving money like most anime.

But some do the budget saving 3d decently well, like YuYuYu where you barely notice the 3d unless you pause or actively look for it.

Eventually it'll just look like normal anime, but it can be made faster and cheaper. That'll be a golden age of anime.

The stock "anime style" just isn't optimized for CG. The two most iconic aspects, the hair and eyes, tend to rely heavy on "cheating" to look right from different angles. Characters will often have a completely different head shape from a 3/4 angle than when they're looking at the camera, because it's the only way the style looks "right". That causes a huge issue with anime-style CG models, where they look weird from certain angles.

Listen friends, I love this too but part of the charm of it was that despite the 3D not looking great, the heart of the show was still allowed to shine through with great character chemistry, a fun soundtrack, and simple world-building.

I think for those of us spoiled with the fluidity of traditional animation, the stiffness of CGI will never satisfy us.

western cartoons have a better chance of using 3d effectively, see: Green Lantern: TAS
>>
>>157578040
I also questioned the popularity after that chase scene but I decided to keep going. My personal favorite is the introduction of Beaver in episode 5, but the point at which I changed my mind about the show was at episode 3 with Toki's introduction. It was then that I understood where the heart of the show would be. If you're still I'd say keep watching for a bit more with an open mind. It really is a fun little program.

It's actually pretty good. There's a few odd bits here and there, but that's true of any format.
And for what it's worth, I couldn't stand the faces in Knights of Sidonia, while Arpeggio was fine to me.

I wouldn't mind 3D animation if it looked as cute and lively as Splatoon. The biggest issue is probably funding though, aside from talented heads.

>>157578455
That's fair. I haven't seen Berserk 3D, that one is truly a shame. All that beautiful line work in the manga goes to complete waste in that respect.

>>157578576
Okay, but what American cartoons for toddlers have you seen where the characters aren't incredibly simple? It personally reminded me of the times I used to watch Amazing Animals or Jeff Corwin.

>>157574598
Sure, the problem with 3D right now is people still sometimes make stuff like this that drops straight into the uncanny valley rather than settling their 3d back on the anime side or going all out to get past it.

I thought the Blame movie and khara's Dragon Dentist were very much steps in the right direction. The thing is that both of these were made by studios that put a lot of money and intern training into 3D animation, were as most other studios just outsource it to some other ghetto studio for mechanical pieces like cars or mechas or shit that's too hard to draw on schedule.
The biggest problem with the current way 3D animation is being used is that it's being used to emulate 2D animation. This creates some jarring situations were the 2D animated segments look normal because we're used to the low framerate but the 3D animation is interpolated to resemble hand drawn animation, which makes it look like a janky stop-motion. Sidonia, BBKBRK and Ajin are specially guilty of this shit and the Blame movie had that problem too in some parts.
There's also a problem specific for mecha shows in that the designs for the mecha are ridiculously convoluted and, while they make for killer merchandise, the animation is hard to follow because the silhouette of the robot is too complicated. I remember Gatchaman Crowds also having ridiculous toku designs but they put money into it and the animation looked fine
I give it 10 some years of more janky 3D Berserks for the japs to up the standard and figure out how to make a smooth transition between 2D and 3D. To expect everyone to be on a CyberConnect or ArcSys level would be ridiculous, but I'd like to think that the standards and quality will improve over time
>>
>>157576743
I have the same issue with this that I do with certain flash animation. Each of their body movements look too much like they're pivoting at a pinned point and not really moving in a natural fashion. It makes everything look too mechanical.

>>157579083
There's nothing wrong with simplistic characters though. They're great not because they're complex, but because they have easily identifiable traits that play off each other well. It's the character chemistry that brought the show to life. It's aim was to be a simple and semi-educational adventure story with fun characters. I think it succeeded in doing so.
>>
>>157579453
You could also describe MLP:FIM in that exact same way.
You wouldn't have to change a word.
Anyway I never really got a sense of chemistry between the characters since they were all just instantly friends outside of a few outliers like Lion, Moose, and Raccoon.
It is a cute enough show I guess and if I had to watch it with a younger relative that would be fine but I just felt like I was wasting my time watching it by myself as a grown man.
>>
i also heard that most of the 3d animation talent goes to video game development because it gets paid better

I think shows like Frame Arms Girls do the juxtaposition between 3DCG and 2D fairly well in how they blend the two together and what they choose to have as 3D models. It's less jarring for a small toy to stare vapidly into space for prolonged periods of time or to have stiff awkward movements, while it would be if we were shown the same things but involving characters we're supposed to recognize as humans.

>>
>>157580271
There's a French cartoon called Wakfu that did an interesting take on the concept. Instead of making their 3D models match the 2D art, they made the 3D models first and matched the 2D art to them. The result is that the 2D and 3D version of the models can switch out seamlessly within the same shot, based on what the scene calls for.

The only problem is that the show is so low budget that the animation often looks janky, but the technique itself is amazing for how cheap it is.
>>
As a few other people have already said, it has to been as a stylistic choice.

A 3D model isn't going to emulate a 2D style perfectly, unless you go out of your way to deform it & add the imperfections to it that you see in 2D animation.

If you think about all the tricks that 2D animators do to save money, like panning a 2D background, not animating background characters, limiting camera moves that would require redrawing etc; while it may be a lot easier to do things like that with 3D software, it's immediately jarring & obvious.

But once again, as other people have said, if 3D is being used to save money they are going to be using 3D for exactly those things which is why it looks like shit.

If however you look at something like this:
>>157580090

This character lends itself to 3D very well. But you can tell that some linework was added on top, which is actually fine because it's combining the strengths of 2D/3D.

This character...
>>157580271
...does not. This character was designed to look like a 2D character but rendered and animated as a 3D one.

>>157582516
>Or like this for what matters?
To be fair, Precure has an almost unlimited budget, and has included cell shaded CGs for ages. Thet get two movies every year and a lot of that money is spent on refining and improving the CG musical scenes. Its THE anime for young girls in Japan and is a gargantuan franchise at this point so they can afford to have some of the best CG work that also stays on model and looks nice. The movies are where the CG really started to shine, because they had to balance all the different art styles with everyone in the same scene.

https://youtu.be/LnWpywSGTJU


I think they also came out with a game or set of arcade machines that also make money of the CG models.

It's what is called a smear frame. In animation you imply weight and force with squashing, stretching and timing. So the kick deforms in motion so it can "spring" out with force on release or impact.

Digital animation, which is as 2D as owls are birds.
>>
>>157583619
It's called puppeted animation. Think "Flash Animation", except they draw the characters by hand before animating them instead of drawing the characters with a computer.

I believe the technique was first used in the second season of the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes cartoon, of all things.
>>
>>157583619
There are two things it could mean: Either puppeted animation, like >>157583670 said, or Digital Tweening. Digital Tweening is where they draw the keyframes, but use computers to create the movement between them.

>>157583998
That the low point of CG is much lower than 2D animation and much more common on anime. You will get like 3 shows good looking CG on the year at best, which none are a full CG series.

The manga is better, the CG is barely tolerable and the plot is vastly simplified and goes anime-original beyond episode 6. To me it's just a nice bonus seeing the characters animated and voiced.

>>157577656
And studios are adapting to it by modelling the heads from multiple perspectives and allowing them to be deformed as needed for exaggerated faces. Obviously some technological adaption is needed when you're not targeting photo-realism.

>>157582516
Budget and time constraints. shorts for an animation exposition or frequently reused pieces like EDs are totally different beasts compared to complete shows. The CG toei uses for non-stock action scenes in precure movies looks a lot less polished than the EDs for example.

>>157583945
change takes time. it was the same shit with the transition from cel to digital. colors were shit, resolution was low (no BD remasters for you). now they can do things that would have been impossible with cel.

>>157583816
The field of computer graphics is inundated with so much autism that you could fill /a/ with it.
Both of the terms "digital animation" and "CGI" only imply that a computer was involved. They could have scanned a hand drawing and colored it in Photoshop, or they could have started and ended in Adobe Illustrator or a similar application geared towards animation.

Only the term 3DCG implies usage of 3D models. All of this terminology can be easily skewed together, because animation is essentially an entire field made up of hacked together tricks.
Look at the Rondo Duo gifs for an example.

A mix of many factors. Budget, development time, ability to attract talent and the amount of content they have to produce. 12x20 minutes of animation is not the same as a few cut scenes.
>>
>>157583594
Yeah, that's kind of derpy looking.

There was a new technique someone came up with a while back where models have no face. Instead, they just have the eyes and mouth floating in front of the head in a way that creates the illusion that they're attached. It allows the eyes and mouth to change position based on the orientation of the camera, so they can make sure the eyes are always in a "good" position.

I'd say the reverse, but it all just purely depends on the tools used anyways. You can get H 3D to look exactly like /co/ and /v/ H 3D by just using their tools, as Vocaloid porn with TDA models but using Source Filmmaker proves. (Image not related.)

No matter how good the 3D is, 2D will always be superior in the end.

I'm sorry, but I prefer my autistic 3D Gourai to this cute 2D Gourai.

Does it seem to you that a lot of the nip dance sequences have a lot of formulaic, or repeated moves across the spectrum? A lot of the choreography seem like rehashes of each other. There are some I still like though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoveIhHjlYU

In this specific case I disagree.
They look better in 3D.

>>157592385
At least is one of the few 3DCG studios with good record.
>>
If it's actually well done 3DCG then I'm actually excited because it can look godly in the right hands
I don't like low budget CGI that looks like it's from a ps1 game
>>
>>157601689
How exactly?
Having only looked at that comparison, the 2D version has more details, looks smother, is more expressive and has more animation as a whole. How does the 3D looks even sightly better?

Matsumoto from Abunai Sisters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNyDcI0nmE0 is one of the most accurate looking asians in anime I've ever seen.

Why couldn't you just let me forget about this?
>>
2D anime is almost never highly detailed anyway, why are people suddenly looking at low detail 3D and going "THIS IS WRONG" when 2D has even less detail
>>
No. Because anime companies use 3D to save money, but good 3D animation costs more than good 2D animation.

2D will always be superior even if faggots try to shill 3DCG garbage like Blame.
>>
>>157602108
It looks more like actual FAGs.
The better and more detailed animation makes them look more like humans then toys.
>>
I don't think Knights of Sidonia would have looked better 2D at all. The 3D is perfect for it.

The anime sets up a dichotomy it follows throughout the series that it rarely ever breaks where only robots (or possessed inanimate objects) are 3D while everything living is 2D.

That's called poser tracing and there are some western comics that make good use of it. It doesn't work in animation because you basically have to do double the work for no appreciable gain.

Will casual anime watchers ever stop complaining about 3DCG in anime?

What is a non casual anime watcher? Someone who watches anime under extreme conditions? Someone who gets paid for watching anime?

but they made Xrd like that because they where on a lack of budget for 2d, not because it was expensive.
