I'm not an animation junkie but it genuinely looks good. I'm not sure what the problem is.

I'm glad that someone posted about it and knowing that I'm not alone to notice that, lol. I kinda found it unnecessary but hilarious.

I thought it looked fine and did a good job of showcasing the complexity of Infinity Castle and the fact it was a completely different dimension. I've also never watched any Indian soap operas and I'm kind of surprised that so many people apparently have.

I think it was the most interesting part of this episode. The second half was dull in comparison.

When the anime is so good in the animation and art department that you have to literally nitpick the use of visual effects in one part of the episode to criticize the show xD

... and on top of that, as few people have already said before, complain about Upper Moons meeting, first one in 113 years, getting more attention and care compared to Lower Moons meeting that happened quite often.

If said people are not haters, then I don't get why they are so blind towards the technique of telling a story through exposition. Pillars Meeting from the first season, according to their logic, was also too flashy and overly dramatic, eh? After all, Pillars got more "epic entrance" than, let's say, Tanjiro and other survivors from Final Selection arc. ;D

Overkill to the point of being borderline-bollywood-style? Yeah. But it was freakin awesome. I love how ufotable continues to take a single panel from a manga with rather sh*tty art imho and then dials it up to 100 with full blown over the top visual spectacle

I had the same thought😂. Especially in the last confrontation with Akaza and Upper moon 1. I've always liked the way they use sound effects to zoom on face to show the impact but this time it was bit too much. Felt like it's straight up Indian soap opera serial confrontation.Nonetheless the whole sequence was so cool so I don't mind it much. And for those confusing it with Bollywood. Soap opera serials and Bollywood is not the same.

If u ain't even a fan, why are u getting so pressed on the effects? Don't like it don't watch?
I am not even a fan myself, I just watch it because why not. I read the manga already and so the only reason I am watching the anime is because I like the animation quality and the art style.
It isn't really jarring considering it is meant to fill out time because otherwise it will already be too expensive and it would be great for the cinema (which it was primarily released for). Plus, a lot of people who anime and shows and what not do not even focus on the intro itself anyways eg. I was on my phone and drinking some tea until the talking actually started where I could pay attention.

And they aren't just pointing out something a little awkward, they are mocking the show for it - including the replies...
that doesn't even make sense
"DON'T LIKE IT DON'T WATCH IT"
That's the lamest excuse you can give.

Nobody is saying that episode was bad animation was bad , they are just saying that they found that presentation a bit overdone
I don't think everyone needs to have the same opinion that "it's fucking perfect" to watch this show.

I'm not even a KnY fan, and there are plenty of things to critizice about it, but one of the most complex and cinematic sequences we have seen in a long time is definitely not one of them.

I've already said this in the other thread, if you think it's akward, that's because you are not used to seeing cinematic stuff and/or know very little about cinematography. If you are not a fan of this style that's perfectly fine, but don't come here trashing on it saying that it's weird or "overdone" right after ignoring the entire point of why it was done like that.

Nobody should be blamed for not knowing about something, but exposing your ignorance while acting like a spoiled child is a completely different story.
again Idk whether your mama slept with ufotable employees and whatcing her p**n videos gave you this knowledge of cinematography.

It feels like it could have been executed better than what they did while trying so hard nothing more

not a fan.

you should turn this thread into a vote to see if we liked them or not.
if you want good story, read novel. if you want good graphic, read manga. anime is beyond that.

I personally disagree the begining sequence showing the infinity castle was way too cool but the editing when kokushibo was scolding Akaza was over the top and cringy. The rest of the sequence is still fire but i did feel cringe evrytime kokushibo was talking to Akaza. Ngl the rest of ep was quite mid except for Mitsuri and best boy Genya.

To be honest I hated it beyond words, it felt like a novelty item a, look at us we have THIS MUCH MONEY and we CAN DO ALL OF THIS BIG UNNECESSARY SH!T 'cause we can.

It felt corny, nouveau riche. It just wasn't necessary for them to do it. Anyway the first episode was so, so. So that's that.

How is that a problem, it looks cool and sounds great, maybe you guys are happy about mid art like AOT since season 4 and chainsaw man, but most of us normal people love good art.
AoT and Chainsaw Man have great CGI and really beautiful animation though, Demon Slayer looks better obviously but don't downplay other series just to praise your favorite one when you're not correct.

they don't understand why kny is so popular and highly rated so they feel the need to shit on kny fans and complain about everything possible
Some things can only be achieved through animation.

Still not even sure what the problem is supposed to be and what did "felt off". The video you posted is a meme shitpost and is completely incomparable. In that viral meme Hindi drama they were just throwing preverbial shit at the wall to comedic effect, while in Demon Slayer those visual cues had meaning behind them and were describing emotions.

You seem to have a habit of stating the obvious. Of course that video is a meme. Ofcourse it can't be compared with the uper moon meeting scene, I already said so in the end when I shared the video. What "felt off" was the over dramatization of the scene. That is what many here are talking about. There is no mention of the bad animation at all. If you understood what that meant, then great, if not, then that's great too, since "Ignorance is bliss".
Just let it slide bro, he's just gonna make excuses to whatever you say. As a fan of KnY i read the manga and felt nothing emotional but cringe on that character introduction scene. The animation was great and the first minute where they introduce the castle using the drone cam was also great, but to say that the transition on the character introduction was great is so exaggerated and biased

Well, it seems like the editing is deliberately trying to challenge the conventional norms of anime. It's a bold move, to say the least.

They produced a beautiful jumbled up scenes of infinity castle in alternate dimension. I am indian and i dont even find a single effect which you call indian soap opera. that was pure cinematography and the music too omg .. if you did not notice there were starrings at the bottom of the screen so it was like a prologue and the way they thought to use akaza flying to the castle was genious.. learn to respect too.. dont just criticise for no reasons.. and this topic is misleading that was no "bolywood ah effect"
