"Kraker2k" and "Wanda"? One of them was actually on /a/ the other day.

>>517
>>519
Pfft that's not me, that person has a cool tag though.

>>504
Was there a next episode preview?

>>519
I'm interested, which person did you think was nonoriri?

>>521
>One of them was actually on /a/ the other day.
Both of us were actually. I was actually a little embarrassed the thread got posted on, I usually like to keep my namefagging stuff off of 4chan.

I actually post in this thread, I just stay as anon.

>>523

Yes, but it didn't show anything. It's funny because it was almost as if they deliveratedly avoided showing the faces of any of the girls. I really want to know how Sushio-styled the girls will look like.

>>524
Well, have a look here at some of his work:

It seems like he enjoys giving girls the :3 shaped smile.

>>523
>I just stay anon.
Yup.

Oh he did k-on fan-arts

http://oreno.imouto.org/post/show/93879/akiyama_mio-hirasawa_ui-hirasawa_yui-k-on-kotobuki

was that Hironori Tanaka on today's Fate/Zero? The way Saber's hair moved during the fight looked a lot like his style

>>528
He sure gets around. He worked on UBW so I wouldn't rule it out.

>>529
UBW was a Studio DEEN production.
Fate zero is a Ufotable production. Raitokun is saying they're keeping FZ an in house production.

But still, He's been showing up everywhere, so I wouldn't rule it out. I think he's pretty much worked for every major studio over the past few years.

Toei - PreCure, One Piece
Sunrise - Gundam 00, Sacred Seven, Horizon
Gainax - Dantalian, Panty & Stocking
Madhouse - Casshern Sins, Kobato, Tatami Galaxy
Satellight- Macross F Movie
Bones - Star Driver, FMA, Gosick
Brains Base - Enma-Kun
Pierrot - Bleach, Naruto, Tegami Bachi
Gonzo - Strike Witches, Druaga, Saki,
A1 Production - AnoHana, Birdy, Kannagi, Space Show
Ordet - BRS
JC Staff - Toradora, Railgun, Okamisan
AIC - Sora no Otoshimono, Persona 4
Shaft - Madoka Magica, SoreMachi, Bakemono
Manglobe - Deadman Wonderland
Studio DEEN - Higurashi, UBW

Have I left any studio out? I don't think he's done anything at KyoAni, but they don't tend to hire any outsiders.

Its like he's not limited by anything, and everyone seems to accept him and he consistently produces great quality and exciting visuals. Props to the guy for working so hard.

Does anyone have any pictures of him?

>>530
I don't remember any good animation in BRS or Persona 4.

>>531

BRS had two notable cuts. The one at the beginning with the very Nakamura-ish block-debris FX (though I don't know if it was actually him). Tanaka's cut was the first skirmish between the girls, it was pretty distinct and easily noticeable. Though BRS wasn't very good either so I can see why you wouldn't remember any parts with good animation.

Tanaka worked on the first episode of Persona 4 but unfortunately the ADs that episode were particularly strict and as such a lot of the individuality and style of his animation was lost. I think his cut was MC summoning his Persona, the hair animation barely gives that away

>>530
He's Studios favorite animator and he's my favorite too
We'll see smth from him in the UN-GO 3rd episode

>>532
About BRS Nakamura said in his twitter account that he worked for BRS in also draw a sketch for the main character

Tanaka work in Persona 4 was when the monsters appeared for the first time and it ended after they went downstairs thats it

What are your top favorite animators, Sakuga Thread? This is my list:

1. Shinya Ohira

3. Yoh Yoshinari
4. Toshiyuki Inoue
5. Mitsuo Iso
6. Sushio
7. Yoshinori Kanada
8. Sushio
9. Takeshi Honda

Wow, I repeated Sushio. I was originally unsure of where to put him and wasn't sure if I liked him better than Kanada or not... I also just realized that I missed Koike.

>>535
>>534

After thinking about it for a while, this is my final list:

6. Mitsuo Iso
7. Mitsuo Iso
8. Mitsuo Iso
9. Mitsuo Iso
10. Shinya Ohira

everyone else are scrubs in comparison

All in favour of not turning this into a shitty survey thread?

>>538

I just wanted to compile our own "animators ranking" tier. ;_;

I think it's impossible for a real sakuga fan to rank his top 10 animators tbh.

Way too hard.

>>539
Then start a survey on google docs and post the link, don't shit the thread up with such nonsense.

>>537
Oh you.

>>540
I agree.

>>541
Don't get too upset, it's just a thread.

>>534
1. Yasuomi Umetsu
2. Yoshihiko Umakoshi
3. Yuriko Chiba
4. Yoshikazu Yasuhiko
5. Junichi Hayama
6. Takeshi Koike
7. Nobuteru Yuuki
8. Toshihiro Kawamoto
9. Naoyuki Onda
10. Yutaka Minowa

stop these lists. just make another thread for them if you want

Fate/Zero #4
was so damn good the animation is top notch
the way they're handling the colors and effects great
this's Ufotable Magic

>>545
>Ufotable Magic

inb4
Hurrr bloom and lights
Durrr digital filtering

>>545
It really wasn't that special.
I agree with this guy:
http://archive.easymodo.net/a/thread/56276768#p56278210

Why are people so hyped about that fate vs Lancer, anyway?

It's mediocre as hell.

>Fate vs Lancer fight scene
fix'd

>>548
Type-moon fanboys. They don't actually know anything about animation.

F/Z 4 is what happens when the animation is much better than the storyboard/framing.

>>547
He was right about camerawork and choreography, but the animation was good and i really liked the effects

>>552

The debris effects were great.

How's Guilty Crown?

>>550
>calling people fanboys
Sigh, I really wish you'd leave nonsense like that back on /a/.
Its bad enough this thread has a sense of pseudo elitism, you don't have to go adding to it.

>>550
>They don't actually know anything about animation.

Yeah, this thread is so much better, amirite?

>>554

Good.

The animation is not bad and the characters stay on model all the time.

@Idolm@ster 17

I think people are paying too much attention to Sushio and not enough to Yuka Shibata. Sushio is an amazing animator for sure, but I think that Yuka Shibata is extremely talented herself and worth being excited about. She hasn't directed much... at all. But what she has directed is great:

>>555
>sigh

Go away.
