Are you implying Norio loosed his genius ?
How much he is doing in the official tiers list of 2d animators ?
Any news about Okiura ?
And the new anime of Ikuhara ? vaporware ?

Nah, Matsumoto is still great. It's just that some people were hoping he would be animating some crazy action scenes, but the episode turned out to be a relatively low-key affair.
Okiura is supposedly working on two movies of his own, expect it to be completed by the end of this century.

-What are your thoughts on Director Takemoto?
Ishihara: His sense of balance is amazing. He’s able to not only balance his sense as a director, he also keeps production on schedule easily.
Takemoto: Personally I think it’s quite difficult. People who create works are a bit strange; they’re able to fulfill what they originally wanted to do unlike normal people; or rather they’re able to recognize things that ordinary people don’t. Thus, I’m a bit envious of Ishihara-san and Yamada-san. (laughs)
Yamada: When I was a key animator, I wasn’t affected very much by scary things. Thus as we were working on the final episode of TSR, he handed me about a mountain of rough key frames and layouts and said “these aren’t good enough,” and made me re-do them all. If Takemoto-san hadn’t judged my work so harshly, I wouldn’t have worked as frantically as I did to improve. (laugh) Also the visuals for “Super Driver” (The 2009 Haruhi Suzumiya opening) was so cool. Oh, the first opening for Nichijou was also cool; it’s one of the highlights in recent years.
Takemoto: Whenever my kids see that opening they scream and start dancing. (laughs)
Based fucking Takemoto

-Are there any characters you have a strong emotional attachment to in a work you didn’t direct?
Yamada: Free!’s Gou-chan is the cutest ever. I absolutely love her. Her long skirt, her perfectly fitting uniform, her somewhat thin ponytail…. She just looks cute. She’s not just girlish too; she’s got some boyish traits in her as well. Like her hair color is the same as her onii-chan’s.
Takemoto: Yamada-san’s love of high school girls is too much. (laughs)
Yamada: I love them. I would always compete to do Gou-chan’s cuts with Free!’s Usumi-san. (Hiroko Utsumi was the director for Free!) I think I may love Gou-chan more than she does. (laughs)
Takemoto: Utsumi-san talked with me one time saying “Takemoto-san…. I’m worried that Yamada-san and (Taichi) Ogawa-kum love Gou-chan too much!’ (laughs) You let your love of Gou-chan show way too much. (laughs) (Director Utsumi-san wanted you to) Enjoy drawing the guys instead!
Yamada: But it was natural for me to draw Gou-chan when her scenes came up in the episode I directed, so I didn’t feel guilty about that. (laughs) It’s not like I switched from a different cut. (laughs)
Ishihara: Utsumi-san directed episode 5 of Chuunibyou and an episode of Hyouka. I don’t think that anyone else would have drawn Houtarou’s (Oreki from Hyouka) rear with as much vigor as she did. (laughs) Women have a fainter drawing stroke, so when I saw that the storyboards for episode 5 of Chuunibyou were so thin during the school swimsuit scene, I had her re-do it.
Takemoto: Yamada-san loves high school girls. Utaumi-san loves high school boys. (laughs)
Yamada: However she continues to draw muscles as much as she wants until she’s pleased with how they look.

Ikuhara is still working on Yuri Kuma Arashi. He's made some cryptic tweets in that sense.
Considering it had a working trailer over a year ago and a date hasn't been announced yet, I figure it must be a movie.
Because Hori is the only one who actually animate? Still looks like shit, hardly animated and reminded really at SHAFT and their Powerpoint presentation.

Oh come on, it's not that bad you negative nancy.
>>616
You are an ass though.
I'm not the same guy but at least Hori's scenes look better than the rest.
Hori is not that bad, although I think he is not a good character animator, his smokes look far better. He did a better job on LWA.
re-scan all the cels
They probably have lost most of the cels they used in the production. Kazuo Oga mentioned that the studio didn't keep most of their production materials like cels and background arts.
What an understatement. No animator on KLK is actually animating. They're replaced with CG or Powerpoint presentation and the big guys don't even work on KLK.
The Triggernigger are still sucking Imaishi's cock though

It's not bad, it's better than the anime of the philippines, thailand and almost china.
they could possibly open in-between studios.
But anime outsourcing sucks. Fucking labor work.
The arabs should develop their own animation style.

Go back to your forum/twitter hugbox circlejerk if you can't handle a bit of hostility nerd. This is still part of 4chan, grow a thicker skin or get the fuck out.

It's not even about being unable to handle hostility, you brainless cunt. Spewing shit like 'Triggernigger' is just fucking shitposting and I have zero tolerance for that kind of tripe. You can disagree and criticize all you like, don't just type inane shit or spam this place. It's a fucking animation appreciation thread, if you want to shitpost in a sakuga thread, go make one on /a/ instead of coming here.

I know that it was meant to be ironic
but this show is actually pretty good if you consider it's budget, it's script and everything. It's way better than KLK.
