The last season got pretty close for worst 2019 CGI anime for the year. (I mean just fucking look at some you'll understand) So this time I'm hoping they got the budget they needed and they'll make it good.

Not so sure about that. The cgi looked fucking horrendous, I don’t care if it got a little “improvement” from first season, it’s still hot garbage.

yeah, the cgi did get improvements, and so did the 2d animation to an extent. therefore it doesn't look as bad as the first season.

I’m going to be honest, I didn’t mind the cgi too much in season one. Then again, I’ve watched it a bunch of times because I like the story, so I’m probably desensitized to it at this point. It’s not the best, but it’s not horrendous when you look at the anime as a whole.

The shitty CGI is one of the reasons the 1st season was so good. This is my go to for a "so bad it's good" show. They better not go ruining it by improving anything, then it'll just be another bad isekai.

Do agree, the shitty cgi was part of the charm of the show. I wouldn't mind it being gone, but I didn't mind it so much since it was part of the first seasons appeal.

While watching the first episode mid way I thought to myself "hm it seems the animation got better, wonder if they fixed the 3DCG" then it hit me that the awful CG was part of the show trashy charm, thankfully it seems they didn't "fix" the 3DCG monsters but other stuff seems to be better like his arm not being god awful and just being meh now.

I dunno yo, I liked the CG in Ep 1. I thought it was a massive improvement from S1 & even had its own charm to it.

Besides that though: am I the only one who thinks the OST for this season is bloody fire??? The intro music, the battle music, and even the ED song, they're all at least above average in originality & emotional congruity. They don't feel slapped-on at all, and even feel like some decent amount of thought was put into them (well, the ED has some "mood swings" at around the chorus, but granted I'd started seriously assessing it, for Arifureta, that's an ENORMOUS leap in standards!).

Honestly, if they keep up the standard of Ep1 across all the episodes, it's a solid Cult 6-7/10. 6 if you're not a fan, 7 if you are. For huge fans who've read the source material, we only ever dared to dream of any kind of adaptation, so for things to have come this far with an authentic degree of passion for completing this series, I'm fricking wrapped!

The CG is definitely much better. At the very least, it's presentable now. The regular 2D animation is also better, but very slightly. I'm curious at the weird grain that looks like someone forgot to turn it off for outside of the storm

As long as it holds up and nothing goes wrong like the first season. This is probably going to be in between 6-8 for most people. 8 only if they actually did the story and delivery well... which I'm not keeping my hope up too much from the studio but who knows

I mean if you don't like CGI then draw it yourself I guess, people think they wont ever see CGI even tho it helps the animators a lot, toxic smh.

3D in the second episode is quite watchable too, so e1 wasn't a fluke.
Any ideas on what happened since the first season? Has the studio replaced some subcontractor/staff, or just spent more time on it?

The fire snakes didn't look very good, but even they were still a huge improvement on the entirety of season 1, highlighted in real-time by the flashbacks they put in.

It seems like the 2D animation took a hit in response though, the characters seemed to barely move this episode: a lot of rigid standing around and maybe raising an arm or two to do something. Even when they did move they seemed kinda stiff; it was particularly jarring in the second half of the episode.

CGI ain't the problem.
Bad CGI is. Most anime use CGI. A lot of times people don't even notice it's there.
s2 is def better then season 1 tho. s1 didn't even follow the basic rules of animation...

I really hope they use 2D dragon instead 3D dragon for Dragon form Tio but f yea just use 3D CGI the same S1 CGI but "little detail" and a pinch better than S1, even Kobayashi Dragon is way better even though the anime kinda cartoony style. I really impress dat sand worm cgi was so beautiful but everything change when dragon cgi show up

If you're comparing to season 1, overlord is def better. The goats were way better than the hydra dragon thingie at the beginning.
