CGI was a terrible idea, but the traditional animation in the movie is really good, over all from what i have seen its not bad at all. If they get rid of CGI for the next movie and stop cutting corners then this series will be amazing.

This.

"Unfortunately, the decision to heavily utilize 3D CG throughout the movie drags the overall production down, but does not quite deal a fatal blow to the film, which despite this shortcoming should find a receptive audience from fans of the series and newcomers alike."

"Despite these many positives, though, the visual presentation of Berserk works to detract greatly from the film as a whole. Possibly in order to make the film's CG look closer to the limited animation style of Japanese anime, the frame rate of the 3D animation is often lowered significantly, which many times only has the effect of making the characters look stilted and unnatural. Other times, character movement may look mechanical or clearly motion-captured, which along with the sometimes-uneven modeling can result in action scenes that look like Playstation 2 in-game cinematics or tech demonstrations."

Overall : B+
Story : A
Animation : C
Art : B+
Music : A

+ Captivating story and characters, traditional animation problem-free when used.
− Awkward 3DCG can distract viewers, acting as a potential barrier to enjoy these positives.

It seems my eyes didn't fool me.

I mean seriously, can you really defend this? Bastards didn't do justice to one of my all time favorites.

Definitely can't defend the sloppier parts, but still, taking a freeze frame of an animation isn't a good way to define the quality, it's about how it looks in motion.

It's sad that they haven't put the full effort into this in terms of visual quality. I'd love them to do a 2-3 hour movie covering the first half of the Golden Age fully drawn and animated, but it would take far too long.

Hopefully they'll polish it somewhat for the blu-ray release.

The thing with anime CGI is that it needs to stay consistent to the subject matter and the 2D animation, so the very simple models that lack detail are all we'll get.

Which is why we got similarly simple models in Evangelion rite? Also I doubt you know enough about animation to say shit like this. You're just pulling more shit out of your ass as a defense mechanism to justify your fanboyism.

I doubt you know enough about animation to say the comments you're saying either =d.
