My god I didn't think there would be an anime that would suck harder than Eiken, Ex-Arm is certainly revolutionary for having possibly the lowest score on MyAnimeList and being the worst anime of the decade.

Kinda sad since the manga is pretty lit. The art in it is very good. But this is a mess. But it is so bad it is good. But all I can say is that the fight coreography in this anime is 10/10. It is hard to find anime group battles that have a realistic fight coreogprahy but this honestly has the best one I have seen. Too bad the execution of everything else is shit

Yeah this show will definitely go down in the history books, not for anything good but at least people will remember the name “Ex-Arm” for years to come. Also seems after about 500 entries I have finally found a show deserving a rating of 1. It’s a shame because this could’ve been a solid 6 if this had traditional animation.

The bad CGI is pretty significant. It's not like it's only sometimes in the background or for action. It's the characters themselves!

This means not only are you constantly looking at it but bad CGI is the absolute worst at conveying emotion. So you have a bunch of souless robots pretending to be humans for a cast as a result.

That plus the fact the pacing and story was mediocre at best with how the anime portrayed it so there was nothing to grant the anime value to make up for the CGI.

I don't think it deserves such a low rating.
Horrendous animation is obviously inexcusable, but that is the only major thing and not enough to justify such score.
Story still might turn out to be interesting. Kemono Friends, for example was also initially bashed for terrible CG animation, but turned out to be a decent show in the end.

Gibiate, on the other hand, did not had a single, even remotely redeeming quality.
Compared to it, Ex-Arm is a masterpiece.

This thread is the best example how people only care about animation. Sure it is horribly animated, yet there are far worse anime out there when it comes to plot and they have very bad 2d animation. Demon slayer is very high ranked even though it has simplest plot. People don't give a shot about story anymore

The robot you see isn't being controlled by her self, but a dude that's been sleeping for years and took possession of her body, so he "tripped" as shown on the gif lmao

Are you really able to dig up an anime with an animation like this despite how good the other qualities it has? I mean, yeah, you could debate whether the anime has a good story or not, but the CG doesn't only look bad, it does affect the way everything else is portrayed, the characters feels soulless, and the jankyness of everything makes it look like a joke, you can't really take it serious.

This anime may have a good plot, but it's heavily shadowed by how horrible the CG is, because, remember, anime is an Audiovisual media, if your animation can't even bring it to life or make it appealing, then it's a failure.

I said "it may have" not that it has. Because the convoluted CG and terrible directing also compensated on it being a floppy mess.

I haven't dropped an anime this fucking quick since the shitty berserk remake in 2016

But at least that anime used fully 3d models instead of having 2d and 3d characters interact in the same fucking scene

How do you justify Re:Zero's success, then? Clearly it is because of the character growth and thus the plot itself. It's not the setting (trashy isekai), but a mixture of character development and thriller realisation with powerless heroes.
Though I agree the people bashing so hardly Ex-Arm are probably those who rate high God of High School.

Know what? At this frame I was trying to find an excuse for the anime to be doing this. I thought it was because the world was a simulation and the 3D character was the only real person around. I mean, wouldn't it be a judicious use of 3D models? Turns out it's probably budget... Or laziness.

Ok ok, i actually spilled my drink when i sorted the seasonal anime by score, and saw this crazy number on MAL. I had never seen this ! Such a low score that I gotta watch it !

I have to witness this pearl ! And judging by the reviews, all more hilarious than the previous ones, I just have to !

It will probably be the funniest anime I have seen in a while , and not because it includes comedy or not
