But seriously, did you forget Akane's friend?! I think the women's faces are fine, some are better than others, just like the real world.

I noticed that last week too I was like what is going on with the quality recently?

Welcome to the Anime industry. It's expected to see the quality in animation somewhere down the line. Though as another has said, it is IG's flagship title. Still, if he's apologised, it means it was just a fuck-up rather than being pressed for budget.

Wonder how Psycho Pass is doing in ratings/sales. Anyone care to enlighten me?

The first volume: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=555237#msg19891845 That number is a bit old, Psycho-Pas Vol. 1 is now up to 9,503 after 9 weeks. second volume is up to 8,783 after four. So it's doing very solidly. BUY YUYUSHIKI BDS ALL DAY EVERY DAY

Character design is probably an initial turn-off. But thankfully, people do recognize a good show when they see it :)

Just watched ep.18.

In my opinion sakuga is not as bad as the twitter seemed to indicate but on the other hand the story is not that interesting in this episode. I think the sakuga problem was most prominent near the end. And also it seems the motion is sometimes not smooth enough, perhaps the number of frames is not sufficient. And the voice sometimes does not synchronize with the mouth movement.

And one of the worst sakuga is like this:

God i laughed for at least a minute when i opened that spoiler, that was great thanks for that you filled a little bit of that empty feeling i got after finishing Rewrite and thought to myself "fuck now i finished it and i cant read it anymore" just like everytime i finish reading something i really like =/

This. rofl xD

I thought it was just me! Some of it looked truly terrible and it stood out even more as the quality had previously been excellent - disappointing as ep 17 was kind of important
Makes you wonder how bad ep 18 turned out?

W-who.. is that.. -.-

All of the budget went into Makishima's bared legs in the last episode.

LOL!

Lmao that art looks like a 10 year old draw like that.

Akane's friend was hot!
