I want to move away from using the term "Sakuga" as it often alienates people and can be misleading. There has been a bit of backlash against the Sakuga movement lately, and I'd like to think many people come to this thread to talk about the animation and visual aspect of anime, which is something that often gets overlooked elsewhere. It would be nice if we could get a wider appreciation of visuals in the anime fandom without being seen as elitists.

The Shippuden 246-247 special is supposed to be good, right? Just asking before downloading.

Well, this week's episode already had some good animation, but based on the credits for the special, we can expect some more good stuff there as well.

>Dragon Ball Z OP 3 - "Bitch I Look Like Goku"
Why are you watching this, lol?

Did you mean this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdssEoaec40 video?

I think someone said it might be Ryo Chimo

Doesn't really look like Ryochimo; looks too... manic for him. Looks more like one of those Tanaka-copypasta people. Or maybe Tanaka himself, since he already worked in the episode.

Nisemonogatari is such a troll show. You read the credits (HIRONORI TANAKA! RYOCHIMO! GEN ABE!) yet in the actual episode you get less than a minute of animation, with each of the "big names" doing less than 5 seconds of actual animation each.

Ahahaha yea I got linked to that as I was making the post and i guess I didnt copy it right.

Obari yay. This is like such a dream come true for him.
He's worked on mecha shows all his career, but Gundam was one show he never touched. He had opportunities in the past, he was asked to work on the Gundam F91 movie as sakkan, but he was unable to commit due to obligations to the Yuusha series.
Now all these years later, he's finally animated a Gundam.

Imaishi and Amemiya did layouts for the CG scenes in BRS episode 1; Imaishi also did storyboard for the CG stuff in episode 2.

I wonder how will it look like. Should've waited until Trigger had enough staff to actually animate it decently, AKA: in 2D.

I think the reason for this use of CG was because their company got merged with Sangigen, they explained it on twitter or on an interview, but they didn't want the other half of he company to be left out so half the show will be traditional animation the battles in the other world will use CGI instead. This way it pleases both parties.

Well, to be fair, it's not half of the company. It's one third of it. Ordet+Sanzigen+Trigger = Ultra Super Pictures.

It is worth nothing, however, that Trigger itself isn't credited in BRS. It's Sanzigen+Ordet only. Also: the main guy of Sanzigen is also the main guy of Ultra Super Pictures, so it makes sense that he kinda prioritizes his own company. He has been the most successful of them all, anyway. Sanzigen provides CG and cinematography services to a fuckload of shows.

Am I the only one that thinks this scene looks bad? The lip synching is terrible and the characters don't really feel like they're saying what they're saying, the acting is random as hell. It's like they're just jerking around spastically.

Because it is something from Imaishi.

Yep. I find Star Driver an extremely mediocre show, but the final episode is definitely worth watching, even outta context.

Found an old interview with Testuya Nishio and Kenji Kamiyama.

It's really interesting and fun to read especially the part about old dudes.

At the time when this was done, it wasn't 720p---or rather, there was no 720p..
so I guess the whole short film collection are somewhere available in HD now.

But yea, the good old Studio 4°c....I really miss their amazing experimental animations.

Sorry for the capslock...but, WHAT HAPPENED TO KOJI MORIMOTO's STEREOSCOPIC ANIME?

Looks like Nishimi is heavily influenced by Yuasa.

Either they ran out of money or Morimoto being Morimoto.

Anyway, 4C should make another compilation/anthology like Genius Party or Digital Juice.

Yeah.. the movement needs to be toned down, its nice they're aiming for lively character animation, but someone needs to re do that scene.

Nah, if it was up to me, I'd rather have them make another movie. They could tap a lot of directors for that job (Yasuhiro Aoki, for instance?)

Hopefully the Berserk series gives them enough leeway and capital for that.
