Not even sakugafags, just have people aware that animation itself is a subset of the visuals in a show. Character design, quality of the background, lighting, color use, any use of post processing filters, CG animation, CG camera work all these make up the visuals. Animation is just another part of it.

When people like RandomC say "Animation" they mean the visual aesthetic in the show. When we say "Animation" we obviously mean the movement, flow and how much "sakuga" something has. Despite the fact they mention "Visuals and fluid movement." They list shows that have nothing in that manner.

Fate/Zero? Mostly just nice composition and filtering. Not much fluid visuals.
Black Rock Shooter? Nice aesthetic and some cool CG here and there. Not much fluid visuals.
Aquarion EVOL? Very subpar work save for some nice detailed backgrounds courtesy of Thomas Romain.
K? It's all in the filtering and color filters. Not much fluid visuals.

I just don't see how Hyouka or other shows could be passed over but including some of these shows instead.
