This shit is just so completely lifeless and terrible, such an even pace and back-and-forth choreography, the simplest animation imaginable, I mean, the praise you are leveling upon it is honestly pathetic, I just can't get over it

What's up with American animators being incapable of conveying weight?
>>
>>90609662

There are no significantly better ones in western animation, maybe a couple of moments when Avatar maxed out the budget possibly

But the west has never learned animation, there are literally countless throwaway fights in real effort intensive animation that put all this garbage to shame, you should all stick to talking about superheroes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKUWEy8ASGY

>>90609691
They're just shit in general, which is what I'm trying to say here

Their animation is lazy

Genndy is especially bad in this regard

>>90609692
The b8 is too weak. Also, everyone knows anime is for pedophiles and should never be taken seriously.
>>
>>90609706
I mean, notice even how characters just standing in place has an infinitely larger amount of angles and perspectives, animated fabrics, and just quality up and down the board that western animation completely overlooks

both due to low budgets and pure incompetence

This thread is a joke, the west cannot into action and never could
>>
>>90609587
Why was this show canceled
>>
>>90609692
Look, I like Samurai Champloo a lot, but the idea that this is scene is somehow a brilliantly animated action scene is silly. In the end of the day it was anime for television. Half the time they are standing still, dumping pointless exposition that isn't really necessary over a panning shot. Sometimes it isn't even a panning shot, it's just a completely still frame. Their lips aren't synchronized to their speech. Many shots, especially of them in the air, are done at a ridiculously low framerate.

Having more realistic looking models =/= better animation. Even if we are talking about just choreography the Clone Wars fight at least has them changing locations and color palette (from the lush green jungle to the darker interior of the temple to the red moon facing outside). Even when they are standing still there is usually animation, like when the rain hits their lightsabers. They use a variety of force powers to shake things up a bit as well. The best part of it, though, is that there is no exposition dump. The most important story element is just told through the visuals (Anakin turns to the dark side and submits to his anger, represented by his aggressive attacks and the red color palette near the end of the fight.)

CN told Genndy to turn it into a Ben10 clone. He refused, so the producers did the bare minimum of their jobs and that's pretty much it,
>>
>>90609942
i actually prefer less realistic models for action, since it allows for more movement, and lets be honest just use actors if you are gonna spend your whole budget replicating people
>>
>>90609691
>being incapable of conveying weight

Genndy absolutely can, he just doesn't in most fights because he intentionally mimics Japanese theater, and Chinese wire fights. There is literally zero weight in those exchanges because of the style.
>>
>>90609729
American shows have substantially higher budgets than anime, even if it doesn't look like it.

>>90609942
>Their lips aren't synchronized to their speech.
Not having to record dialogue beforehand and match the animation to it is more efficient and flexible, and it really doesn't matter much whether the mouths are synced or not, especially when Japanese is such a sound poor language.
>>
>>90609960
It allows more movement but it reduces or obliterates the visual quality and realism of the entire show.
>>
>>90609233
Exactly who animated that on how much was the budget?

I'm assuming due to the short length of the series and the LucasArts budget it was to be expected that the animation would be above average.

How long was the Gendy Star Wars series? 40 minutes? 60?
>>
>>90609691
Were you being a cheeky /a/ssfaggot again?
You posted Wakfu, a french animation with absolutely no timing and bone structure, where everything looks like a liquid. Not to mention french and japanese copy the same style a lot.

He didn't posted Wakfu, he posted the Dofus movie.

>>90610315
realism is overrated, especially when the advantage of animation is the ability to distance yourself from it

visual quality is subjective, and stylization can improve rather than reduce it, since it can keep things slick and not bogged down with extraneous detail
>>
>>90612401
I don't mean just literal realism as in trying to make everything look as close to reality as possible, I mean drawing characters in a detailed way, having detailed shading and detailed backgrounds to create a sense of reality. It makes things look more convincing and immersive, and just better in general.

>visual quality is subjective
Only to some extent.
>>
>>90612481
i dont like detail that isnt pertinent to the character, since it slows down movement, and can be visually distracting

addind detail in a manner that makes things more realistic without looking like a mess can be done, but this is usually an unreachable nirvana that can only be reached in full-length theatrical releases

i would rather have more movement and smoother motion than more resolution on the people
given two extremes, well animated stickmen and a slide show of portraits i will alwaysa choose the former
>>
>>90612539
>addind detail in a manner that makes things more realistic without looking like a mess can be done, but this is usually an unreachable nirvana that can only be reached in full-length theatrical releases
It's hardly unreachable when every anime does it.

>weebs dissing gendy
Like animu usually have better fights, they mostly use cheap camera shakes and blur to convey the illusion of "quality". Camera vibrates on an attack and weebs cum.
You rarely get things of this kind of quality:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uR01YPPv7M
>>
>>90615679
There's absolutely nothing wrong with using camera shaking to add more impact, and there's even less wrong with smear frames. You're also completely misrepresenting anime fight animation by claiming it just comes down to those things. It doesn't.

Also weebs practically speaking do not exist. They are a bogeyman.
>>
>>90615814
Oh please, spare me this bullshit. This site is weeb central and you wanna turn it into alt facts now.
>>
>>90615903
This place is weeb paranoia central. I'm not sure if I have ever seen an actual weeb here, just people accused of being one. Even liking or defending anything Japanese is enough to get someone accused of being a weeb.
>>
>>90615257
Do you have a source for that or did you felt for the "all American animation is outsourced in Korea" meme?
>>
>>90616039
>Rough Draft Studios (overseas production facility) (as Rough Draft Korea: season 3)
>Rough Draft Studios (overseas production facility) (as Rough Draft Studios, Inc. SEOUL KOREA)

>>
>>90616165
Doesn't Rough Draft have animators in America?
If not I guess you're right.
>>
>>90616475
I don't know if they do any production work in America, but if something is animated stateside then there should be credited animators on IMDB.

IMDB credits a Korean animation studio and names no animators. Meaning that it was animated entirely in Korea.

By the way, guy who complained about camera shaking and smearing: they're in this video too.

Japan has a stronger animation industry than the West. Anyone who says that is a weeaboo who is clearly delusional.

But pointing out that America has a stronger live action movie industry than Japan is ok, because it's just a fact after all.
>>
>>90617207
Saying that Japan has a stronger animation industry than "the West" is correct.
Saying that "the West" never learned animation and that there are literally countless throwaway fights in real effort intensive animation that "put all this garbage to shame" is weeaboo bullshit.

He was exaggerating, but not by much. The West never got very good at animation, and didn't develop the kind of fight animation seen in anime.

>The West never got very good at animation
Are you stupid or just ignorant?
If you unironically believe that the Nine Old Men, Richard Williams etc are anything but some (if not the) greatest animators in the world you probably should stop talking about animation.

Watch anime, is shit too, I dunno but quality in animation has been decreasing pretty hard in the last decades

Everyone gets overly agressive when it comes to fighting scenes and animation, too many diverging opinions on what makes it good or bad, the only consensus is that weight is important.

DBS is one of the tiny handful of go-to examples people produce when they're trying to "prove" that animation quality has dropped (or that the Japanese can't animate or whatever fake problem is being pushed). There's 40 or more half hour long shows every season, DBS is a drop in the bucket.

No. Japan only outsources some work. Most work is done in Japan.

is it the show with dragons with big boobs?
I know this is probably the worst place to ask but I have to know, is it good? Is it a manga adaptation because it's easier for me to read the manga.

I got interested in it because it looked like a harem show but with a girl protagonist instead of the usual dense MC circlejerk.

Eh, would have been more interesting if he had mellowed out and grown up to respect Lance. The whole "kid rival" thing has been done to death, with the only reason it wasn't too bad in SBT being how Lance wasn't treated like a king throughout his kid/teen years.

Christ, can't you autists just enjoy shows for their entertainment instead of who does the better animation? If the art style is good, you can enjoy even if the characters aren't fucking drawn with a bajillion goddamn fucking frames of detail.
