What the hell? I was just saying that Death Billiards was fantastic, not that LWA sucks dammit. LWA was awesome. Holly shit dudes, you need to calm the fuck down.
muh yoshinari muh trigger
What was so special about Little Witch Academia that you have to get so riled up over such a simple thing? Yes, the animation in Death Billiards was better too. That single scene with the wires at the end was better than anything in LWA. The motion is more detailed in Death Billiards (okay, admittedly this is a stylistic choice since LWA is more cartoony and Death Billiards more realistic - but still, I'd say that takes more effort, again just putting that out there). The art direction was better (LWA wasn't that impressive from this perspective to be honest), the storyboarding was better by a fucking LANDSLIDE with a lot of cool stuff like the cool zooms and various other cinematographic (is that the right word?) tricks that add an extra bit of panache to the visuals. It also played with layers in more interesting ways. LWA was very flat by comparison. It also liked the background animation in Death Billiards more (with the kid walking down the street) since it didn't rely on fucking cycles like in LWA (not that there's anything wrong with that of course, just putting that out there).
Overall, as fun as LWA was, Death Billiards was simply better technically.
but muh cartoony acting and designs
That's just a style. Death Billiards had character acting too and it was great. And the designs were all different, expressive and easily distinguishable. Sure, there are only 4 character so there's that as an excuse to put more effort into them but the point stands.
And no, I was talking about "everything" animation (aren't we in the sakuga thread?), not also about story/writing, characters, soundtrack whatever. If I were to take that stuff into consideration as well, I liked LWA a lot more. Difference between an 8/10 for LWA and a 6/10 for Death Billiards. So calm the fuck down.
The amount of colors used in LWA is insane; it looks more polished than most anime movies.
Bull fucking shit.
Death Billiard had pleasant art but the designs were pretty standard anime fare
Ha, so this is who I am conversing with. How typical.
That's a non-argument and a moot point. You're like those retards who claim all KyoAni characters look like keions.
