Sure, it doesn’t look the best, but then again.,. Shin Itagaki and his lack of CGI experience was the reason Berserk sucked.

Alright, this is coming from someone who loathes CGI in anime with every fiber of my being: The CGI actually doesn't look that bad from what I saw in the video. Hell, I think it looks decent and doesn't look too conspicuous. That said, it's irritating that all the anime with good source materials or concepts always end up being CGI, and I would have taken it being entirely 2d over CGI any day.

I actually think this looks quite good. Look how detailed the landscape/background shots are sometimes. I get people have issues with CGI, but this is definitely good looking CGI. Some shots are even hard to tell if it is CGI or actually 2D.

This is not bad. The CG looks like Beastars and is good, well detailed. Throughout the trailer only the lizard guy looked cg but as for rest, I wasn't sure if it were regular 2d animation or cg. Hope this will turn out as good.

this looks pretty good actually, cgi is not bad and has a nice aesthetic.
don't know how people weren't expecting cgi since the manga has so many details impossible to make on paper.

Nailed the OST, VA choices are good, atmosphere is nice and the CGI is more than acceptable. I am excited after being worried for the good part of a year knowing it was going the be CGI.

The 3DCG doesn't look appealing but if they mix it with the 2D perfectly then there's a charm to it when mixed with the backgrounds. Definitely watching this. Didn't even know this existed until now.

Bruh they're doing like inuyashiki, just decide between 2d and 3d, I hate it when they do that...
But I'll admit the cgi looks good when the characters stay still, but only when they stay still...

YES YES YES.

Seeing Kaimain, Nikaido, Noin, Shin and the rest of the gang animated is going to be awesome, CGI be damned,

The background art looks great and I can really feel the mud and sludge vibe it gives just like in the manga~

It would've been great had they made it drawn instead but it's fine since I don't really mind 3DCGI in anime unless it's an eyesore as long as I like the story. Hoping they'll improve it in the final cut, especially with Kaiman's head.

I'm looking forward to seeing Noi looking oh-so-sexy in her dress and the Chaotic Shambles of a story that is Dorohedoro.

Yeah, not a fan of dorohedoro specially its art in the beginning, so I found the animation more appealing even if it contains some cgi. And be thankful the Background, the ost and atmosphere actually look great and they keep the character designs.

Was expecting 3DCG, but at least it's not too horrid-looking.
I'm hyped, here's to hoping they don't otherwise mess this up.

There are a lot of insanely detailed anime done in the traditional style, particularly older anime before 3DCG was a thing. Rather, all the detailed backgrounds are done traditionally anyway by the looks of things.

Never read the manga but the CG didn't look that bad aside from on the lizard guy where it was noticeable, for the other chars I had to double-take at points to realize they were CGI so that's some pretty decent usage in my eyes. The background art is gorgeous and that OST alone sold me on the show.

I was going to watch this, but I’m forbidden to watch Seinen anime now. While if it does adapt the Manga completely and later becomes an Shōnen, even then I still will have an ton of episodes to watch that are all Seinen.

I’m sorry, but...it’s just too gory.

As most people have pointed out: the background and OST look amazing, the CGI isnt that bad but I am still bothered by Kaiman and Nikaidou. Not only their voices but a little by how they look. It looks interesting but I still dunno if I will watch it or not.

Honestly I'm impressed by the visuals, looks really original and it brings out the insanity.

@javitaxy Is Nikaidou a boy or girl? I looked up the manga art up and this adaptation indeed is lacking in capturing his/her design.

I'm not a fan of CGI, but there's no way this could have been animated without it. The characters are far too detailed to traditionally animate with the time frame and budget that a TV series allows.

This looks AMAZING! :D

Seems like it's only partly 3DCG, there are hand drawn scenes as well.

And looks like this is from the studio who made Inuyashiki, which also had some 3DCG animation, but was still a very impressive looking anime :)

Anyway, I can't wait!

Yeah, I agree. Berserk 2016 and 2017 did damage CGI Anime’s name, and people are still like ‘no cgi’. It’s not like the series would’ve been hand drawn anyways. The art is almost impossible to replicate, as I tried drawing the characters and failed. It’s CGI, just deal with that fact and move on.

Enjoy your trash, I don't care.

Edit: Oh, you're the same guy who defends the abomination Golden Kamuy anime, I remember you were trying to pester me about it, I'll block you now. I get it that you have low standards, but you should mind your own business or something. I do not tolerate low effort/garbage adaptations of amazing manga source materials.

So, looks like shit, because of CGI. VA is unsuitable for Kaiman and Nikaido. Kaiman's VA is more suitable for En, rather than Kaiman. CGI is, reeeeeally, shit. It's disgusting. In manga characters and backgrounds looks beautiful and perfect, rather than in anime. I'm gonna watch it only for fun. Thanks MAPPA for shitty adaptation. R.I.P DOROHEDORO. Hayashida will be upset, because of that.

Exactly this. I think CGI is getting there, but the main issue with it still is the animation.
Static shots for well-produced CGI looks good, and can appear to be 2D, it's really just the motion which has to be developed further... at least for this technique of simulating 2D hand-drawn animation.
