THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The animation change in this episode was very noticeable. Thankfully it looks like it's back to normal with the next episode.

Is it really? good to hear. Previous art style was better. I wonder why this episode is differently animated anyway.
( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list )

Agreed, I was like what the heck?
One does not simply change the animation style in the middle of a show!
Well, good to hear it's back to normal!

Haha I thought I was watching the wrong show. It took a bit of effort not to be bothered by the sudden change in art/animation.

Yeah, the animation for this episode is piss poor. They must have let an intern or something do the character animations for this episode. It seemed like the animation changed in accordance with the story's progression into a new arc. The fact that it changes back after this episode means that it was either a mistake or someone told them that the animation wasn't up to par, so they changed it back (likely the former).

If nothing else though the animation was good for a few laughs.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

So it wasn't my imagination after all. I think they ran out of money from the animation budget.

Hahaha, I immediately had to check MAL to see if the animation really did change. 5 minutes in and it was really annoying me. Glad it goes back to the original style.
