Project No.9's art style isn't awful tbh. It's not a sports or action anime so animation isn't really top priority either

Yeah I find both the art style and the characters well designed and attractive, I think the studio is doing a fine job :)

It is beautiful imo. It’s not an action/isekai-ish anime, I don’t ask for more.

I think studio bit slacked while animating it. Don't underestimate project 9, they did amazing job in animation Jaku Chara tomozaki kun, with similar art style.
I agree that it deserved better animation but studio is alright, yeh ofc not Kyoto animation level but it was decent.

Many of you are saying the art style is really good , yes it really is, the animation is stiff but at least it’s watchable, BUT that isn’t question here, the question is that did this story dererve more? , as a light novel reader , i feel very dissatisfied with the anime , the story deserves more than the normal romcoms out there, you can easily see the difference in level in the level between normal romcoms and higehiro,
I think it deserved a level of animation like that of oregairu.

Short answer: No, I don't think so.

There's already been times in this show where I've been impressed with the animation. And as others have said, the lack of action among other things doesn't require a bigger budget/studio.

For the average viewer who likely didn't read the VN, this studio is doing a great job. But I could totally see why if you've read through the VN and this series has a special meaning to you why you would wish even more for it.

I think this studio is doing a great job with the anime so far, honestly Project Number 9 usually has decent animation it’s just that they never had really amazing series to adapt so the animation is covered by the meh stories but with Higehiro and even Tomazaki Kun they are showing their true potential

It not who deserved it , it about who took first step to do it ok if other studios can do much better than current studio then why they not done it.

I think we again comes to discuss like we done with attack on titan it not about wit or mappa then because at that time everyone take their hands off aot but mappa comes forward n take responsibility on thier shoulders and appa put their soul in aot and other hand project no.9 is new but their animation style n approach fits perfectly with show vibes so just be happy atleast we are getting an adaptation of this show.....

Have you seen Clannad? Or A Silent Voice? They've definitely adapted some emotionally mature stories before so something like Higehiro would be nothing new to them.

Is the animation really that important here? I don’t think so. It’s not bad and that’s enough, there’s no need of God-like animation in this title.

I think the animation is pretty good. The storyline is what makes an anime great not animation

Sadly KyoAni can’t animate everything x)

I understand what you’re saying. But I feel like they are doing a good job so far. Even the OP visuals have so much detail. Yes — latest episode, animation was a little stiff and there were some off-model drawings. Hopefully it doesn’t get any more jarring than that.







but i’ll probably remember over and over again
you were there and everyone else was there

I think it has very cute and colorful animation. Everything that is a still is well done. Movements and expressions are lacking, but I don't really think this story deserved much better. So I think it's fine.

I don't particularly worry too much about animation, or graphics, if the story is good enough.

I'll reserve judgement as to whether this deserves a better studio when I see the ending.

I get your point, but remember - nowadays Kyoto Animation works only with manga/LN, that either is on their book label, or wins their annual book contest, or something independent (or they bought for themselves), because they don't want any problems with copyright and money (they don't need to divide it between all those companies, that worked on the project).

Besides, they have several active projects right now (Maid Dragon 2, Free movie, Eupho's 3rd year, Electricity in the 21st Century etc.), so I don't think they would've picked it up either way:)

It's just a LN haremshit. It doesn't deserve anything special.
