Oh no! This could've looked so stylish, it's a shame that they're going the CGI route. I wasn't able to watch the pv, but I hope it'll maybe be like the first season of Kemono Friends and have the charm of the source material make up for what it lacks in visuals.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm dumb and realized I could watch it on Youtube. I'll still watch it, but yeah I wish it wasn't CGI.

I'm not a fan of CGI animation myself, but as far as 3D animation goes, this doesn't look all that bad. The colours are nice and the character designs still look charming. There's something about them that even makes them look more 2D than 3D to me--they don't have that weird shading style that's typical with bad CGI. The animation quality does look stiff and unnatural, I'll admit, but overall, the visuals are not that bad. If you want to find a 3D anime film to cry about how bad it looks, just check out Goro Miyazaki's next film, "Aya and the Witch." Its visuals are just plain awful.

Honestly I kind of like the style. Probably one of the few that does but it gives it a comfy vibe. I guess for me it feels charming. Like a passion project. Clearly not a ton of money involved, but something they really wanted to do.

It really doesn't look all that bad. In fact, I would say it looks pretty cute. The shading is not nearly as bad as it is with most 3D anime It almost looks 2D with it's stylization

It's full CGI because, if was 2D with 3D could feel weird anyway, and a full 2D, that would be much more expensive.

I mean... It look aight. I've seen this kind of CGI from Hi-score girl (wicht was also from J.C Staff and also CG), so I'll give a chance. Maybe its gonna be one of these shows where animation is that great, but at least had a good story and character that kept me watching.

And also at least look better than that CG show this season. You know the one

This might be alright. I'm not a big fan of CGI, but I've seen worse.

If it ends up being that bad, I'd definitely give the manga a shot.

Aesthetically, the CG doesn’t look bad, but what little animation we got looked stiff. There were lots of stills during the PV too, which is a bit concerning. BG art looks nice though.

I don’t have a problem with CG (for example, stuff like Into the Spider-verse and/or Connected can show you how impressive and unique CG can be), my problem is why use it for a series like this?... The simplicity of its character designs should have made this an easily series to animate in 2D.

Anyhow, I'm still planning on watching it since I like the manga.

The hand drawn anime effects of the CGI model look really good, but the movement is just awful, the the realistic bg really stands out in contrast to the model.
Looks really weird.

3DCG is more expensive than 2D animation, it's just that it's faster and there are a limited amount of 2D animators to go around, Japan and now even Korea and China are making too many animated shows.

New PV looks really cute. Honestly, it looks like a small team of people making the animation. Doesn't seem to have a ton of budget or anything but stylistically it looks different than the majority of other anime coming out. Looks experimental honestly. I kind of like it too.

Come on, only first season of Shokugeki was animated, all sequels were cheap slideshows. You also need to learn one thing - it's not studio that decides if something gets sequel, it's owners of IP who decide.
Also this anime is probably done by same cgi studio that made Hi Score Girl for JC staff.

Don't know how the manga is but well, aesthetics between the background and characters aren't actually bad. It looks pretty much like High Score Girl. Sure is not a top-notch CGI, but at least it has some aesthetic sense, it's not an Ex-Arm or Arifureta level at all

As for the trailer....it looks fine. janky yes, but it looks cute, and I think the jankiness adds to that.

it's the CGi studio of high sorce girl (which is the publisher's CG studio) is doing the CGI

I just looked at Ex-Arm and the animation looks about 3x better than the first few episodes of Kingdom S1 (it gets better by the end). The issue with Kingdom is that the story is exceptional so to have such terrible animation is a pity. Can the same be said about Ex-Arm manga? idk, haven't read it. I also haven't read Maiko-san but it does look like interesting.
