concerning F/Z

-The storyboarding is very competent, its basically the strongest aspect just like with Kara no Kyoukai. Its very meticulous and detailed, the scene composition and layouts in general are excellent. Although most of the episode was just exposition and dialogue, it built tension extremely well so the mass summoning at the end worked nicely as a climax for the episode.
-The actual animation is....well its okay. The animation is basically using the storyboards as a crutch, as such there weren't any notable cuts for the entire episode. Though its not really a big deal since none of us expect anything amazing outside of fights animation wise.
-Speaking of fights, my biggest concern is Berserker. He gets the best fights in F/Z and is the center for a lot of the action. I'm not really happy with him being CGI'd but I suppose they'll pull and Envy from FMA Brotherhood and have him be CGI for most of the series with bits and pieces animated traditionally. I'm still more apprehensive about the black mist around him, in the OP he looked like an indiscernible black blob and that'll probably hurt a lot of action scenes if they continue to take such liberal methods of animating the mist.
-Otherwise the use of CG was alright, though the CG wine Tohsaka held at the beginning was a bit much.

those are my two cents about the episode, hopefully we get some well animated action out of this.
