| Idk much about studios but ive heard Madhouse is known for great animation. And I saw many were dissapointed in that regard so far at the beginning. 4 episodes in, what do you guys think? I think for me, I was expecting animation of the same level as the promo trailer and we havent quite seen that yet so maybe im a little let down. But perhaps I shouldnt have made my expectations based on that. |
| It's been pretty mediocre honestly, especially in the first three episodes. The scene when Echoes was shaking looked really bad and my god that fight scene in episode 3 was damn near laughable. |
What a beautiful Duwang |
| 2 things is a big factor on animation quality and that is talent and time thats about it and not the anime studio sure this show have talented animators and directors but they do not have enough time to animate things beautifully, source https://blog.sakugabooru.com/2019/01/03/winter-2019-anime-preview/ anime studios only hire those talented staff, majority of talented staff are free lancers on the anime industry too, there is a animator shortage crisis going on since there is not enough new animators joining the anime industry because of low pay and long hours of work, and also anime shows are being produce in huge quantities today but their is not enough talented animators and directors to animate them all about time, that is the production schedule and deadline of when the anime show will air, and usually deadlines are set by the owners of the anime show which is the production committee and most of the time the anime studio is not part of this ownership or production committee |
| It's good. People expect too much |
| I think people were expecting way too much since it's Madhouse doing this , imo it gets the job done so i'm fine with animation so far but i'll have to agree that the fight scene EP3 was a little disappointing , however we still have 14 more episodes i believe madhouse will do a better job handling the future arcs |
| Seems like a good tease for the Novel readers but as anime is just not working. |
| Just as I predicted, this anime was gonna reach Darlin In The Franxx levels of division and controversy. I think this anime has been great so far! But as I've said before, I've not read the LN. I'm more than sure that the LN is great and if I truly liked this story I should read it (I plan to read it sometime later ok? sheesh). The blurry fighting scenes I thought were an aesthetic choice that I felt fit in with the creepy atmosphere of the anime. I don't get why so many people complain about it. The first 3 episodes were great! The only thing I will admit that's true was that the ending of the first ark was unexpected, and I guess if you're a fan of the LN, you probably expected more. So I guess it comes down to, it's a good anime but it's not a good adaptation. |
| TBH , i think the animation is okay, neither good nor bad but when it comes to the show the rating is kinda underrated. i mean, for me it should be around 7.6 ! The show would have been better if the conversation b/w characters was not too slow and boring. The animation of the show depends on the animators of the studio who are currently working on this show's animation. |
Tokyo ghoul's 1st ,2nd ,3rd and 4th season were a big mistake of Pierrot!!!!! |
| I'm serious right now, the art and animation is the worst i've ever seen. It made me stop watching the first ep halfway. It's so fucking atrocious. I prefer the Berserk CGI over this shit and that's not even a joke |
| you're cool |

I just realized that all of my favorite characters, beside being stunningly beautiful, also happen to be exceptionally skilled murder machines. \('-')/ I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges. |

Boogiepop at least looks sharp and crisp in still frames. Yeah, Just Because looked ugly. At least it was tolerable, unlike Boogiepop. |
| you're cool |
LockHowl said: I'm not going to pin you on your opinion because everyone is allowed to have them no matter how disagreeable. However JB was unwatchable throughout. The quality never improved, no scene looked over 5 out of 10. Steins;Gate had a terrible ep1. Far more confusing than Boogiepop could ever hope. The animation and story pacing was super finicky. Gintama had a terrible episode 1 and 2. Yet both these shows are top rated. Watching an anime and saying you couldn't stand half of episode 1 is premature decision making. Anyway you do you. I watched all of the episode, but I'm saying that I didn't enjoy the art and animation. I stopped watching it halfway, but I went back to it. Obviously, animation won't make me hate a show, but the first ep of Boogiepop was just not good. I loved Gintama's and Steins;gate's first episode a whole lot though. I wouldn' say they were terrible. I wasn't confused with the first ep of Boogiepop because I know what I don't understand will be touched on later. From what I've heard the first episode was horribly adapted and left out very crucial things. I didn't enjoy the first episode, but I'm going to keep watching anyway. |

electromagneto said: Indeed, as boogiepop is currently against the best animes of this season.and tokyo ghoul:re's animation is average as the animation this show has. The director, animators and producers of tokyo ghoul:re ruined the whole series by missing the important parts of the manga and by putting boring scenes in between. I wish they dont get another anime series as they only ruin the series. They even put 120+ chapters in just 12 episodes. those who were working on tokyo ghoul:re do not have the skills to afford another anime seriesSparkingVolt said: Come on.

| As of right now I dont really have any problems with the animation |
| Are we really gonna make it..? |
| pretty average for madhouse studio if you ask me |
| It's not as bad as people make it sound to be. |
 |
| Good grief you people. You're not satisfied with 8/10 animation? This is a mystery show. It's not supposed to have the best animation you've ever seen in your whole fucking life. It's fine. It's good. Stop complaining. |
Read Toriko! |
| At this point I'm pretty sure you people don't know what animation is. |
| It's fine. This show doesn't need a lot of flashy animation anyway. |
| Probably the animation was meant to be like this for the sake of the story but i cant shake it that most of the character faces look pretty much the same which is really confusing. Story wise is not really interesting to watch i don't really mind the animation if the story was good but it feels messy maybe just my taste is different and its doesn't suits that type of anime. I watch few more eps but probably will drop it at some point. |
  |
| It's fine, my main problem is the character designs. They should've just used Ogata's designs as they're much more unique. |
Alex82829290 said: SparkingVolt said: Ugh I'm damn sick about these people that complains the adaptation. Tbh it was pretty good leaving the filler parts for the story and focusing only on the important parts. You just need to pay attention more on details that the anime gives you opposed on the light novel that basically tell to you for the media format of a book and leaves out just a bit of mistery, but still not that clear. If they would adapt the ln words by words the show would be boring af. So you guys should just use your brain instead of coming having watched other shows that explain everything to you. That's part of the charm of boogiepop as it is like a puzzle. And imo the animation is really fluid so far especially the fight of episode 3 frame by frame.I watched all of the episode, but I'm saying that I didn't enjoy the art and animation. I stopped watching it halfway, but I went back to it. Obviously, animation won't make me hate a show, but the first ep of Boogiepop was just not good.

From what I've heard the first episode was horribly adapted and left out very crucial things. I didn't enjoy the first episode, but I'm going to keep watching anyway. Yeah, "Focusing on important parts' The end of the first episode was ruined and was just laughable because they left out conversations between the mc and boogiepop and made the scene have like 0 meaning at all. I never said I was confused, and no one ever said they wanted it word for word. If you are going to make an adaptation that follows the same plot, you have to tell the story how it was intended. I only watched the first episode, but it didn't do that. A lot of times the anime adaptation is used as an alternative to experience the same story for people who don't wanna read the source material. This adaptation is a horrible impression for the series and will make people think it's bad. |

| my honest opinion, idk anything about Boogiepop beforehand so I'm as blind as you. I smell masterpiece in the making, this is not the kind of story you can enjoy just by casually watching, you need to piece together everything, the show's timeline clearly back and forward, I believe everything will be worth it in the end, I definitely going to re'watch this show when its done. .. I'm talking about the story aspect |
 |
| Garbage. Weak and uninspired directing, bad visuals, non-existent characters, lacks focus of any kind and no value at all. I'm on the verge of dropping it. |

JudoJD said: That PV was using original footage specifically made to have a PV to hype the audience for the anime and give an idea of the expected animation quality... ThereArentNames said: They failed to make the show visually interesting and tell the stories in a way that does the novel justice while simultaneously piques interest. It's a shame, really, because looking back at the trailer and the op/ed we can see that the staff has potential for so much more. It isn't terrible, but you can't help but feel that the story was written by a 13 year old and drawn by a bunch of guys who basically gave no fucks.. I have been misled by anime trailers before - most recently, Angolmois showing animation almost exclusively taken from its opening, then having basically none - but a trailer with such a high budget presentation being created with the sole intent of generatating hype through deception is a new one to me. The gap between the trailer and whatever the hell that comical 'fight' was in ep3 is staggering. It was SO bad it reminded me of this classic: An anime doesn't necessarily need a budget, as Madhouse showed nearly 20years ago with the disturbing horror vibe of the original Boogiepop anime; which I watched after dropping... this. An artistic vision to set the mood and a coherent attempt at an interconnected mystery, imitating what I assume the novels went for, was all that was needed. But this 2019 shite has no creative passion behind it and instead seems to highlight the worst of light novel bollox: high schoolers that come across as fake (special ops attire Nagi, murder investigator Suema). They all look the same and dialogue is rushed-awful. And the timeline jumping, without any flow or warning, when everything looks so bland and samey?... it was a fittingly terrible attempt at making a lot of alien nonsense 'deep'. Baccano this ain't. The 2000 anime made it work, despite being episodic and reliant on some prior knowledge, yet the 2019 one couldn't manage it when each episode directly connects. For me, Boogiepop 2019 highlights how low TV anime regularly goes; unable to show animation, full of generic CG backgrounds and basic art. So many series are pumped out without money, or talent, and the end result is just a load of cheap, uninspired shite. ...oh, and Madhouse? It's been at least a decade since they were any kind of anime quality benchmark. Parasyte a few years ago had blob detail/animation at times. |
