Hoseki no Kuni PV
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwFpAyEuph8

Coming next season, done by CG studio Orange. Their first full TV anime production. They did the CG mecha for Majestic Prince, CG Akito. The faces look better than expected, and it seems they nailed the color composition.

Hardness level 3.5. Phos is the youngest among the Lustrous at 300 years old. Phos is brittle and weak, and is unfit to fight. Phos feels useless and unskillful at everything, but for the first time Phos is given a job — to edit a natural history magazine.

The art and colour loosk nice. The CG faces seem a bit awkward but I don't drop anything due to being CG. If the story is good enough to keep me interested then this should be just fine. The only thing I really hate with CG is when they over use the fucking camera motion they can do especially in action scenes. It is like a kid with a new toy just using it for the sake of it and makes action unreadable and confusing.

I started reading the manga and it really pretty boring so far as of the first 6 or 7 chapters.

the girls look pretty but the character interaction isn't great, the story isn't there.

does the story get going soon? if the quality stays consistent with the first 6 chapters and it doesn't get much better then it's honestly a polished turd and the only thing good about it are the character designs and aesthetic.

Official translations are avoiding pronouns or all gender references altogether.

Japanese uses varied pronouns. They switch a lot. It gives the idea that they have zero concept of gender and just use it to express themselves as agressive/cute/etc. Thats it. They are rocks. Rocks with asses.

I never considered Phos annoying desu. It must be frustrating to suck at everything, especially considering there are gems like Zircon, just a bit older, or Cinnabar and Antarc, less or as solid as him, who are much stronger and useful. He's doing his best. And the stronger he becomes, the more of his original self he loses.

He doesn't really make them. They are living gems that roll out of the sea every once in a while for some reason. The priest guy collects them on the beach and sculpts them with a humanoid appearance. He doesn't decide their personality, hardness or skills.

I'm more ok with this than I expected after seeing it's CG.

Not a lot of internal monologuue, lots of talking, and minimalist art. But it's all done pretty well, if you can stand it.

Also, characters and plot are pretty decent.

>>161456110
Fucking gorgeous. I never thought I'd say that one day, but this is CG done well.

It's like you've never seen one of their shows.

To be fair, that's largely limited to their earlier works on MJP and Akito. They've improved since then, and most of their more recent works do not have nearly as exaggerated of a camera as those two.
>>
>>161456110
Not impressed.

is that what she said?

I want to caress her head and attach it to Phos
>>
>>161474458
So to demonstrate this you show a clip where the camera never stops moving?
>>
>>161474747
There's a large difference between the exaggerated spinning and shaking camera in MJP and the more deliberate motions in Fafner.
>>
>>161456110
It looks pretty great for CG
>>
>>161474836
Not really, it's still excessive camera movement to cover up lackluster animation and choreography.
>>
It looks like shit. I was looking forward to something like Flip Flappers, but this is just disappointing.
>>
What pronoun should I refer to them with? Would xay or zir work?
>>
This looks better visually than most CG anime I've seen going around but still looks yuck to me.

but thats like, my opinion man
>>
>>161456110
It looks better than anyone dared hope. To insist otherwise is a sham. Orange has already BTFO Polygon with this, Sidonia can't compare with this at all.
>>
CGI is a very poor fit for a manga that embraces its nature as a set of drawings.
>>
>>161476356
Seriously. Orange has actually managed to make the show look like an anime with out making it look choppy as shit like Polygon usually does. It make me wonder what their methodology is for animating, they obviously didn't go with the Polygon method of using a program to cut out frames.
>>
I remember that 1 minute ona for this show being posted this cgi looks really weak in comparison from what i can remember.
>>
>>161456110
>CG
Why?
>>
>>161476507
I'm confused by that decision as well. HnK has always had a minimalistic approach at large, and heavy contrasts to help set the mood. It doesn't translate at all to CGI. The art reminds me of some older japanese paintings and art pieces that I've seen.

And the poses and motions look odd in 3D, Phos running at the beginning sticks out as having really off posture.

>>161476561
It was better able to capture the artists style.

I think it'll work.

Just the nature of the content kinda fits the 'cold' rigid CG.

Like the moon monsters are very 'fake' looking and such, and would be difficult to animate.

Also lightning/texturing the actual look of the Jewels. Like the brittleness/cracks etc can be done well in CG. Also the reflections/transparency.

We'll see. Just weird seeing it all in color. This is one of those comics you marathon, forget about, pick back up several releases later but have to start over because you can't discern the characters anymore.

This seems to be the year a number of things I've read got adapted, and how they have all been very mediocre. Youkai Apartment, Ballroom e Youkoso, and Made in Abyss so far. All of the adaptations aren't bad, but they are lacking something, or the animation can't keep up with the manga's presentation.

I'll admit I have pretty low expectations for this now that the PV is out.

>>161477211
>Just the nature of the content kinda fits the 'cold' rigid CG.
You could not be more wrong. This series is based around minimalistic scenes juxtaposed by very elegant and detailed encounters with most of the moon people models. And the use of contrast is very strong at scenes. But paramount to everything is how motion is conveyed in these scenes. That's not something I think a CG scene is going to lend itself too over 2D animation.
>>
>>161476201
Just refer to them as he, like you're supposed to. If any of them magically turns into a human girl, then you can switch or whatever.

Hard to say, they came out around the same time, Houseki was a year. Could've very well been a coincidence.

that looks like a fixed texture, i.e. handdrawn. the shadows of the struts for example don't look like any of the CG shadows in the rest of the movie.

The CG hair looks more gem-like though.

Oh yeah their pajamas are pretty

I'll laugh my ass off if the same characters being promoted are in both Megami/Nyantype and PASH

Because that's what they do in the story0. If you want to call them girls or them, might as well go to Tumblr or write your own fanfiction.

But we also get the horrible CG faces and movement. I would have rather they stuck with 2D if this PV is anything to indicate.
