Never heard of this guy before, but interesting.

Does anyone know why some animation looks amazing and why some looks... really average? The scenes from BONES/Production IG shows look really nice but then it shows scenes from Fairy Tail and it just looks... underwhelming. Is it because FT is really low budget?
