| I think Studio Bind is glad about the job of adapting Mushoku Tensei, it's their magnum opus. |
No, this isn't my signature. |
| I did not expect bind to be behind my 1st drop of the season the stone anime. Hope they continue Onimai though. That is peak. The sad truth of anime is that more seasons are often treated as diminishing returns so only huge ips can manage multiple seasons. |
 |
| What's your point, Sir? |
 |
| Studio Bind was literally formed to animate Mushoku Tensei, and although as you said, season 2 definitely had some quality problems, I would say it is more of a matter of schedule issues rather than passion for the work. |
| Bind did a good job adapting Mushoku Tensei, though I don't like how they sometimes cut important scenes and shots, that completely change the context of the scene, like for example during the Hydra fight. |

| I don't think there's a lack of passion. These anime all have much different deadlines and funding. I assume the deadlines for bigger projects are much tighter due to the stakeholders having much more to lose in comparison to sth like a slice of life anime. Depends on each contract. |
 |
| Oddly enough I remember one instance in season 1 part 2 where the animation was a little poor. To avoid spoilers I'll be vague. That one scene when Rudeus drops the cup of red liquid (wine?) and falls in show motion as his adventures with the other character in the room flash by. The cup was changing shape as it spun around while falling. The lighting also doesn't maintain temporal coherence. And by the way s1 part 2 is literally in my favorites, so I'm not saying it sucked just because of that. Just saying that scene is the worst instance of poor animation that I remember. |
| People will disagree with you but I completely agree. Maybe I’d be less butthurt of the downgrade in MT if the other stuff they did actually interested me but it’s just stuff of my least favourite genre aside from yuri. |
| Without Mushoku Tensie Studio Bind wouldn't exist. These are literally side quests to make money to fund more Mushoku Tensie. I didn't watched mineralogy one but S2 animation still tops Flower and Asura. Animation was good during action which is what matters. Although it can be said Onimai is their best work so far. |
| It's sad that they seem to allocate their best staff to these useless CGDCTs, whose only memory will be of their animation and nothing else. |
| bruh studio bind was literally created to adapt mt what are you on |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |

What does/doesnt "look better" is subjective.
Im sure theres at least a few ppl saying Ruri Rocks doesnt look good.
Yet despite RR having "better animation", MT is ranked higher on MAL.
So that just tells you that better animation isnt everything.
No, it isn't, at least not entirely. It's one thing to say you prefer a specific style/visual approach over the other, that is subjective, but when you talk about something being "better", specifically from a production standpoint, you're certainly taking objective technical qualities into conversation instead. Like, if someone said "TBATE looks better than Violet Evergarden", that isn't subjective. |

I heard that in S2 production, most of the staff that worked in S1 were working on other projects including onimai, and specifically, the director of Mushoku Tensei finally achieved his personal dream of working in an "idolmaster project" (idolmaster u149).
Add all of this and a possible schedule issue, it's understandable that the quality dropped or changed. I personally felt that the character design/style changed. Not too much, but it's noticeable. Kinda as if the original character designer left and someone else took the job and tried the best to replicate the original style -which is what probably happened knowing that the character designer also left for S2.
I strongly believe that the team that worked on S2, worked really hard and that they tried their best though.
I did notice that quality wasn't as good as on S1 and that onimai generally looked miles better quality wise and much more polished, same occurs with Ruri Rocks, which feels ironic and somewhat dissapointing. What happens wirh MT? Lack of funds? Lack of staff?
It's probable that S1 simply had a lot of skilled freelancers as well. May need to research more on that. I believe that's the reason, besides director, character designer and script writer leaving and not working in S2.
It's still well known that Studio Bind was created with the sole purpose of adapting Mushoku Tensei, so I don't think that they lack passion, it's more like a fraction of the staff that worked on Mushoku Tensei may have left or simply preferred to work on other projects. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
