They actually did good in lots of places such as its pacing, music, art, voice actors and the wolf but like the animation is just a total letdown cause I know it could be done in a better way.

Give them a break man, I heard it's done on low budget and the studio production is new. They rely on experience animator I heard.
I wish they could find a better CG animator tho. Let's hope they gain bigger budget for next season.

The anime was already pretty engaging and fun to watch, and the animation isn't even Itou Junji Collection level of bad. You're just spoiled.

SOme people chose to consume it with higher production values rather than just imagine it with: they reada the manga.

they're lucky the stories and characters are so great because the animation is a huge let-down.

how is good stories and character have anything to do with "getting lucky"?

what are you on about?

my point is the animation studio is lucky the manga is so good that their bad production doesn't take away from the enjoyment of the excellent characters and writing.

of course, it would be better if that weren't the case, but this is what we've got.

I always ask myself why it is that stories that don't require great animation/art have high production values and an action series like this gets a shitty budget. Imagine Golden Kamuy done with Kyoto Animation production values?

And then the answer gives itself. No one, or very few of us wants to watch a bunch of cool middle aged villains tearing ass through Hokkaido and lots and lots of people want to watch teenage girls looking pretty and crying.

yeah it’s pretty unfortunate, an award winning manga at least deserved a better studio. but for a studio with only 3 titles on their hands is not that bad. i guess.

but then again there’s studio NUT who make an outstanding animation like Youjo Senki as their first title, so i guess the problem is on budget.

The show already looks totally fine to me, the use of CGI isn't even that unappealing, it could be done better ofc but it's already very enjoyable.

For me what important is delivery of scenes and transitions between them. And GK anime staff did a very good job on that. I even think, they should handle this to A-1 or Pierrot, so people would really see a lot worse production (and not only in terms of animation).

You are as pretentious as the anime and manga you like. NGE, FLCL, Oyasumi Punpun... Holy, shit, I could have guessed even without looking at your profile.

Yeah I also hate the Episode 1 minute 16 to 18, where the CGI bear appears. Rest of the show is very good so shut up.

the CGI is bearable at best it's isn't that distarcing.

it wasn't a budget problem actually and the CGI animator did his best even if he wasn't skillful enough.

The fans of Kingdom would like a word with you.

(Also, after a while I found the animation of the bears endearing. )
