gg made an interesting comment on their website the other day accompanying their release:

"Why the f**k are we doing these when DEEN isn’t even fixing the animation errors for the BD’s."

I wasn't even aware that there were any big animation errors. After I google'd it, I found that DEEN apparently screwed up the hair colors of the Seven Stakes in episode 21, and apparently part of Genji's shirt was blended into the background in one episode.

I haven't noticed anything, personally. I haven't taken the time to remember what the stakes look like anyway, except Mammon because she was featured with Ange somewhere around episode 20, and I would never notice something as minor as Genji's shirt.

So I'm curious, has anybody else noticed anything? Screenshots would be nice :P And are the BD releases really not fixing them, whatever they are?

In episode 21 Ange killed Lucifer twice (luckily Leviathan was stealthy enough to escape the wrath of Ange during Lucifer's other death) :P

Does DEEN ever redo animation, anyway? I know Higurashi had a lot of QUALITY but besides some uncensoring like showing Rika's full corpse (which is probably gonna happen in Umineko BDs as well starting from the one containing the first twilight of EP2) , I don't remember if there were any big changes.

For that matter, next month FSN TV Reproduction comes out, and I don't think they have confirmed anything besides new OP and ED from screenshots.

Gah... Guess I expected too much.

DEEN is just treating Umineko as a homework assignment, they don't give a f*** about it.

The entire reason I'm watching this anime is for the QUALITY. It's definitely not disappointing. There's a gold mine of them: Wonk eyes, didn't get enough oxygen at birth faces, levitating Ronove, people talking without mouths, RUNNING, etc.

One of the best so far is in ep 15 (iirc) where Rudolf and Krauss "run" outside. They look like midget hunchbacks running in place, but then they make up lost time by running much faster than possible for a human.

I know Simoun had some retouched animation, but other than that... DEEN has a well deserved reputation for being a lazy studio. And they also don't care about fixing up a flopping series.

Don't have a screenshot handy, but in episode 17 (I think) Eva's right ear was about three times the size of her head let alone her left ear.

That was more in-between animation stuff that you won't ever see unless you pause with good timing, so I don't really think that counts.

However, I do remember on episode where all the Stakes were missing their torsos...

It should be clear what is the problem with the upper image.
Just look at the case that is being pulled. Doesn't it look weird?

And after that the case suddenly becomes thinner and smaller. (picture #2)

Actually I was just checking if the anime had any other cabinets with a green light like in the VN, but then I noticed this. It was just so disturbing that I had to post it here.

Oh wow o.o;; I can't believe I missed some of these.

Is stuff like this common with all studios? Or is this the reason I've been seeing "lol DEEN" all over the place?

It's common to most studios. Shaft and Sunrise have had some horrible cases that had to be remade in the DVD (Sunrise redid some Code Geass episodes, for example). Brainbase had Akikan. And that's ignoring stuff like Musashi Gundoh and the like...

Mostly outsourced stuff to cheap animation studios ends up having QUALITY.

All studios have make mistakes with their animation. You shouldn't have a biased eye with DEEN because it was actually the director's fault the anime wasn't following the VN.

I think that this old picture might also fit in this thread, even if it isn't exactly an animation error.
