Since the discussion was more on the art than the animation, I am surprised that no one mentioned Shaft and 3-gatsu no Lion: One could say too that the characters are too "rough" compared to characters of popular franchises (such as Fate). More detail could be given to eyes. Character feel more like a drawing, etc. Speaking about eyes:  It would be stupid to say that Hina's eyes from 3-gatsu no Lion are no match to the incredible detail of eyes of Eren from SnK. First, Shaft adapted quite closely 3-gatsu no Lion art, but I think that Studio Wit chose to picture such incredible amount of detail to add some realistic and dramatic impression to the characters emotion (and characters do have crazy wide open eyes in the manga). Though 3-gatsu feels very real and has drama, the art does not need to have SnK's level of realism to be true to its purpose. Just imagine Rei playing Shougi with Eren's eyes; the viewers would think "What is the show?". So saying that 3-gatsu no Lion's art is inferior to the one of SnK makes really little sense. Using another example, I find Fate's "dead eyes" slightly scary but efficient in the way that the viewer may understand the sacrifices of the different characters which made them look kind of emotionless. They really add to the oppressing atmosphere of the series.  In Kami no Tou, characters may not be crazy kids shouting on random people, so it's probably fine if the art is sober. Is Nature simple? Bareness is no poverty, The art makes the rule. On a personal side, I think that the art of 3-gatsu is probably one of the more expressive ones I have witnessed so far. The feeling of "emptiness" I get when I see characters playing shougi is probably not stranger to this simplicity, and the art perfectly pictures pain or tears. No crazy amount of detail is necessary to achieve this. |

Oh, you bring up SAO? The anime which has one of the most overly bland art styles? Okay. Let me bring up a diagram for you. I'd now like to show you the distinctions between the art style in Sword Art Online, which comparably, has little to no difference between characters. Although having more detail, the combination of character design makes each character look like a carbon copy of one another.  Here, I compare Kirito to Asuna. Facial difference? None. Most notable about this comparison is the fact that asuna looks like kirito with just longer hair and a different eye colour. Why is that? Oh! Lack of variety. TL;DR summary of the above image: no distinction between facial type, including: -nose -eye shape. -face shape. -body shape. -stance. -gesture.  Here is a comparison of both the art style of Sword Art Online and Tower of God. Easily differences can be noted between the two images. The sword art online image contains what I like to call "The standard of anime", which in other-words means laziness. What does this image express to you about the character? His personality? Traits? Anything, really? Now, let me compare this to the chad ToG version. The sketchy art style, which some may call bland, is perfect in adding in distinction between scenes and can create absolute eye-candy. It's also a stylistic choice which has been incorporated in anime in the past, most notably in the line-work of Dragon Maid. e.g.  Shading is not needed for this style. Its as simple as that. No, this isn't making me biased. Many styles have thrived on no shading to make it unique. I'd also like to mention the works of Yuasa, Masaaki, who I consider the godfather of unique styles, which happen to be simplistic and lacking in detail, but make it up completely by animation and design. Here is 3 series he has worked on; kaiba, eizouken, and ping pong the animation.  These are all works by the same studio/creator, and yet.....All have different styles which can describe the characters personality through the art alone. DO you realize how powerful that is? not many mediums are able to encaptulate the emotion of a character in its entirety. You can note about these styles that each of them lack shading and are simplistic, yet all got high praise and recognition in the anime community. Was the style a disadvantage of watching each show? No. Not at all. In fact, I believe if it had an average, detailed and thorough style it would lose its charm entirely. The power of art in each of these shows goes to show that each character doesn't need to be perfect to be special, and distinctions even between characters can be noticeable. TL;DR A simplistic and unique art style doesn't make it lazy in the slightest. If done correctly, it can far surpass other styles in terms of smaller details of the fluidity and motion, as well as facial features and reactions. If you truly believe at this point that a simplistic art style means laziness, you really need to watch better anime lmao... Wow, such a hilarious post! Seriously, both SAO and TOG art styles are really GENERIC, the most generic crap you can find in manga/anime today. Except for the part about Masaaki Yuasa, you wrote a lot of dumb things. You want some examples of GREAT AND UNIQUE character design in anime, with huge expressivity?       Yeah, I know they are examples from old anime, but ACTUALLY if we want to speak about "unique" and especially "expressive", we have to look mainly at the golden age of Japanese animation, when animators could give a lot of importance to details and facial expressions, and most of the job was still handmade. |

| I don't see anything to lack in this series so far and din't want to defend it but "low quality animation" immédiatemely caught my attention. I'mpretty sure that by animation,,you actually mean the drawings/pictures and not their "moving" so... Aren't you aware that this series, based on the 1st episode, clearly shows TMS exhibiting its best game in the visual department? (the things one can read here...) |

Tbf there are a lot of anime characters (mainly in isekai) that very much look like Kirito , but there aren't many that looks like Bam , so I don't think the word "generic" applies here.

Although I can't say I'm one to hold art&animation above all else, if the story is interesting then that is all I care about. I don't like watching a show where it's only value is how pretty it looks, I'm not someone that can just enjoy something I don't think is interesting because durr pretty colors. |

Can someone confirm that Emma doesn't look jackshit like the girl this guy posted from an anime I haven't seen? I don't care what your third party says, it's obvious the art style is very similar, look at the shape of the face, the position of the lips and nose, and how the eyes are drawn. These are common traits in many 90s anime. I got that to say that some art styles are similar you want to see basically identical characters. For example, to say that TOG art style is similar to Haikyuu art style I must do something like this:   Only in this case you say "hey it's true, the art style is similar!" EDIT: I saw only now you don't even know Card Captor Sakura, and probably you never heard about Clamp. LOOOOL How old are you? This is the MAIN problem. |
| @DomineLkira ...Or, you need to see how this girl  is obviously similar to this girl from Durarara!!  They are so similar not because both of them have brown eyes and hair, but because the kind of art style is really SIMILAR, and there's plenty of modern anime with this basic art style, it's really common (same shape of face, same kind of noses, mouths, eyes). |

I found the show pretty interesting and its just that i think it deserves much better animation quality than its getting right now. At least the art should be better imo. I know it felt pretty fluid but how can we say that when we still dont even have single fight sequence( Hope we get soon but i dont have any high expectations.) Ok, you're talking about the visuals and the character designs. There's a difference. I think the animation looks fine. I do agree that the visuals looks really bad by 2020's standards. It looks like this anime was made in 2006 and it's no surprise that they gave this IP to some no-name studio since it's a Korean Webtoon and not some Japanese manga. If this was a popular Japanese manga then a studio like ufotable, Production IG, Wit Studio, A-1 Pictures, Bones or JC Staff would have animated this and make it look better. Tell me what looks better:  By A-1 Pictures OR  By Telecom Animation Film (Studio currently animating this show) My opinion? The latter looks like garbage and it's definitely not up-to 2020's visual standards. The colours don't pop as much, the lack of lighting is frustrating to look at compared to A-1 Picture's visual and where's the shadows and the details? Thank God this show has been entertaining so far or else I would have dropped the show after the 1st episode. |

I have already said most i could. This show would have been much better experience with even slightest of the improvements they could do. My verdict is that people who are in favor of this shows animation are either pretty old anime watchers who have a sweet spot for abstract designs which i respect or they are involved in drawing themselves. Cause their artist point of view is making them sympathize for the show's animation and the animators cause ofcoure there are obvious similarities among these people. |
| Subjectivity is a joke on MAL. If you implicitly bring in subjectivity in your counter argument, you've already lost the debate. Also this website is a fankid infestation , have pity on those kids by ignoring there quotes as they have absolutely no clue what exactly is going on. |
| The animation is obviously on a lower budget, but I believe its because it's a smaller scale project done by a small scale studio on a small scale budget. It's still good enough that I'm able to enjoy the series. I would not go as far as calling it trash, it just needs some getting used to. There's far worse stuff being released in the last year lol Maybe S2 will get a higher budget if this season does well. |

And what's similar here? The line of the mouth... the smile? Again, if you are not able to see the HUGE similarity in art style, it's not my fault. |
| The animation might be a bit slow, but I'm pretty sure the art style is meant to reflect the Webtoon it's based off of. |
 |
| The artstyle looks pretty much the same as the early Webtoon. People who are caught up probably expected them to use the later art style for some reason. |

DomineLkira said: Please share those PLENTY of characters with me , cause I am pretty confident I can do the same for Kirito but there aren't many that look like Bam. You hate artstyles that aren't detailed? Do you also hate mob psycho or works by Yuasa? Cause of what I have seen of them , they don't look very detailed do they? It is not unique but it is not generic either.

It is not unique but it is not generic either. Why did you ignore what I wrote? I just told you he looks like a character from Durarara!! or Haikyuu, but he looks also a character from Bungo Stray Dogs and tons of other anime. I didn't say I hate plain art styles, I only said this webtoon has one of the most common art styles in modern anime, especially in works that tend to pander to a female audience. This kind of art style isn't only simple, it's also very typical, unlike what you see in Yuasa's works. Edit: Anyway, when some kind of art style is very plain, you get easily the same face effect, and it's not common only in isekai/moe crap, but also in tons of other modern anime/manga. The lack of details brings this kind of problem, that was almost absent in old anime and manga, because they usually had a very detailed art style. For example, there's no way you could confuse this girl with this one even if they are supposed to be Lol, he is not at all like Baam, only from your point of view do you find similarity. |
momoka16 said: Are you even serious? Plenty means PLENTY. It looks like Tokyo Ghoul too, and tons of others. Anime and manga today have basically two styles (with some exceptions, of course): the moe style, and this one. I'm sorry if you hadn't noticed it yet. There are really few shows with a peculiar art style. If we speak about the most popular ones recently produced, one of them is The Promise Neverland, since its art style looks taken directly from the 90s, see: And, I know you could say this art style is "moe", but it's not the same kind of thing you get in modern isekai/slice of life moe series. The biggest difference is in the eyes: they aren't dead fish eyes, they have the pupils, that give the characters a completely different expressivity from your typical moeblob. Oh please. Do tell me what is so similar between Sakura and Emma? You must be blind. Or maybe you think you are funny or can talk shit. momoka16 said: @DomineLkira ...Or, you need to see how this girl is obviously similar to this girl from Durarara!!

And what's similar here? The line of the mouth... the smile? I repeat it again, only from your point of view do you find it, because I can't find anything related to this. |
DomineLkira said: That girl and Emma don't even look remotely similar but okay. I have watched AND read Tokyo Ghoul , and none of the characters look like the ones from this show. It's what I am saying , it's not unique but it's not generic either. You are just saying, "They look the same just believe me please". Okay for starters Bam looks like which character from Tokyo Ghoul? And again I am open to change my views , if you give me evidence of course.

I'm giving you evidence, but if you are not even able to see the similarities between Card Captor Sakura's art style and The promise neverland's art style, I'm only wasting my time with you. I don't even see similarity in the eyes, what do you smoke? |

| Do you even know what animation is? lol |

Paulotronator said: i'm talking about the overall animation and not just the action scenes. So far Character's overall movements in this first 3 episodes is still fluid, but yeah that action scenes in episode 3 is a bit stiff, still decent though. And i still didnt find any bad CG in it.Jfs_ said: Eh, animation is pretty good they look so fluid and every characters moved alot. Imo bad animation is when the characters is barely move and even when they do they looks so stiff and not fluid, plus bad CG. That's kinda what happens in the action scenes. |
| Go read 'Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece' If you like webnovel with historical, military and kingdom building genre. |
| Petiton to close this thread? OP has been thoroughly dunked on, and we're all just repeating the same basic difference to between animation and art style. |
