I'm assuming people know that horses are considered one of the hardest animals to draw in general. So what I'm asking is to give me examples of modern anime that utilizes them properly? And no, don't give me monster girls, real horses only!

Also for the sake of getting a discussion going, why do you think there aren't as much horses being drawn anymore in anime? Or do you disagree? Give examples!

This can't technically be called "modern" but is a good example of how a horse should be drawn. I recommend not to open the spoiler tag if if you have a weak heart. I've warned you.

Grancrest Senki and Hyakuren no Haou to Seiyaku no Valkyria.

And because Japan doesn't have many horses, so they draw what's native more than what's not.

I can not tell if your comment is a bait or you're being serious. Either way, Haou to Seiyaku no Valkyria has the worst horse draws in history.

You're cherry picking the part you can disagree with and ignoring Grancrest Senki.

And the OP didn't ask for anime where they're drawn well. They asked for anime that utilize them, only citing that they're hard to draw as a possibility for why they aren't drawn much.

You fail.

Of course. I never talk to something i know nothing about.

You miss the point, Pal.
@Nanaya-kun said to give a good example that utilizes them properly but as far i can tell, Haou to Seiyaku no Valkyria is far away on using them "properly" and also being drawn well is a very important thing on being utilized "properly"!

>You fail.
So did your dads condom?!

A side thought but what about bears? First thing that came to mind in this thread was Golden Kamuy's CG out-of-place bears that caught everyone's attention XD

This scene was pretty nice in Shirobako, and the anime even made the topic of horses being hard to draw, especially in 2D, a big part of that episode. Good stuff.
I probably regret this post by now.

Did you post this after watching Shirobako or something? I remember them having trouble finding someone who was good at drawing horses.

I've only been on horseback twice in my life so I'm no judge of how they move if at all accurately but there were horses in:

Alderamin on the Sky
Attack on Titan
Heroic Legend of Arslan
Lord Marksman and Vanadis
Moribito (this show even has oxen, which are much more rare to see.)
Walkure Romanze

There is this "excellent" horse in Goblin Slayer. Overall I think that anime with good art will generally have good looking horses. But when it comes to average art shows, and bellow, it gets quite worse.

Do you mean modern contextuality or modern as in the anime was made recently?


For the former, Tari Tari I believe has some good drawings of horses (the doujins for that are mad)

Yeah, I think the Attack on Titan horses are pretty good, although I got close twice to horses and would never again. So I must admit that I never looked at them so closely.

If you consider the 2016 adaptation, it would be modern...

What about the horse's face though? It doesn't look realistic

Same reason its rare to see female characters in anime that act like real girls do. Authors write what they know.
