>I don't mind rotoscope, but I've watched enough Japanese live-action shit to know the real reason rotoscope sucks in anime. It's because Japanese actors overact constantly, which makes the movements seem choppy.
Watanabe himself said that the scene was one of the most realistic ones in the show.
Should I listen to a genius director or to some guy on /a/
mhhhhhhhhhhh

Why is Shouji Gatoh there... Bros
Ah yeah he's best mates with Takemoto isn't he. The FMP behind the scenes filming was quite funny with their audio commentary.
how should bahi possibly rotoscope a crowd of students running in a japanese school?
He hasn't even been in Japan yet.

The one thing people in Japan pick up on is how Bahi drew the hand acting, the way Bahi drew it is not something people do in Japan. In Japan people tend to do it from below where as Bahi drew it from above.

The director of Kids on the Slope says that a scene in Kids on the Slope is fantastic.
I prefer a high animation quality like in Hyouka without crazy nonsense.

>>974 wich means that it can't be a rotoscope scene.
If the hand gesture was japanese , /a/ would still have the theory that Mappa send him the live-action material to work on.

But that's completely the point. Japanese anime is known for the "inconsistency" between cuts. It is how and why you can identify a scene by Imaishi or Yutaka Nakamura. They are allowed to pour their unique talents into the drawings. If you want everything to be on model and uniform then you are going to end up with lifeless and heartless and you might as well just go watch family Guy because it sounds like that's what you want. Even Hyouka while has alot more consistency than your average anime, there is enough uniqueness and personality in various cuts that you can say "Okay this was done definitely by Kigami"

Everything that looks better than the average is rotoscoped.

Though that being said, Animation Directors exist for a purpose, but even then one AD's episode can look wildly different to another AD's episode.
I mean, some even go to the point of changing character designs.
