As in, direction overall or just the visuals? The former's excellent, the latter... could be better. Jojo is for the most part a very cheap show, abysmal animation-wise and sometimes with awful storyboarding that makes the fights annoying to watch due to how unique Araki's action is. They try to make up for it with creative visuals but it doesn't always work, though I must say the latest episode (which is one of the high points of Jojo) was excellent in about every aspect. Hopefully Part 3 will have much better production values.

What I like = good.

This is what most of them think.

I would highly doubt that. Fuck how can such a popular and big name manga like JoJo get such a low budget. The show is already good now with the shitty animation and inconsistencies. Just imagine how great JoJo would be if it had a good budget.

Looks like Yutapon's book is available for overseas shipping now. I wonder if it's worth buying?

Because Japan. At the end of the day, the anime is just a vehicle to sell more manga and more JoJo merchandise. They don't need to put much effort into the anime because simply by virtue of airing it will increase sales in other areas. The DVD sales are just a tiny bonus compared to what the other merch will bring.

Because it was kind of a bet and no one knew if a latenight adaptation of Jojo would turn out well. Which it has. So yeah, whenever they get to adaptating more of it it's likely that it'll have much better production values.

Look forward to today's Vividbutts because it has some insane cuts. Hamaguchi, Hisashi Mori, Kouno-chan and Isao Hayashi KA.

Did Mori draw anything crazy-looking like what he did in Zetman?

Name: Anonymous 2013-02-28 14:02

Today's Vividbutts wasn't that good I think. Few seconds of good animation, CGI circus and one nice explosion by Mori. That's all.

You're killing me here man, are you saying that lineup put out a mediocre job?

I was getting hyped for the episode and all...

The cuts are very good, but there's just about 5 minutes of action. Everything else is just alright, above average production values like the rest of the show.

Name: Anonymous 2013-02-28 14:53

So if everything is above average, and 5 minutes are absolutely wonderful, I don't think "wasn't that good" quite describes it.

Maybe he didn't like the action that much, and the show having good production values is nothing new so you kind take it for granted. I liked it a lot myself but you know how subjective these things are.

Not going to spoil myself, but around 3 minutes of interesting cuts is good enough for me.

Is that a mixture of bad and bland?

I can't really believe that I'm going to say what I'm going to say next, but I want old SHAFT back. I want crazy storyboards, super cool layouts, and brilliant use of limited animation, with sparse but effective sakuga scenes. If Shinbo putting more animation in his anime means it will look just like any other "well" animated series around, than no thanks.

As far as action scenes go, there's nothing more bland and repetitive than  the circus. Sasami already got a shitty one early on. Or more.

can you post examples of "old Shaft" scenes?

Isn't Shinbo still directing in pretty much the same manner, except with less cuts that only consist of text and colour?

Name: Anonymous 2013-02-28 17:02

IIRC Shinbo doesn't do storyboards anymore, the "SHAFT style" are his minions trying to emulate him and utterly failing for the most part.

Who does good storyboards at SHAFT anyway? Takeuchi? Who else?

this.

come on guys, not everything that has a shaky camera is sakuga.

Tanaka scene was awesome I'm talking missile circus

I don't love SHAFT or hate them
but i like them when they relay on Tanaka a lot

Thank fuck there's no shaky camera here then, just pretty cool animation.

>>788
Shinbo revised the Madoka storyboards, he said so in the booklets. I don't think he's done it ever since, though.

Oh no, better stop calling excellent effect animation and cool motion "sakuga" because some random person on the internet doesn't think it deserves it.

Madoka had this Shinsaku Sasaki guy doing some episodes, from those and his track record he seems to be really good. And an episode by Tomohiko Ito.
I think it was a better production than what SHAFT normally puts out.

Looking forward to that. Is the episode director good? I kinda miss the Sessha-Kouda combo.
