The1gairon Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Indistinguishable from anime?? This says the show is gonna be made in CGI, like RWBY, and RWBY while getting just as much praise as any other anime out there, isn't exactly the pinnacle of computer animated perfection. PLUS that article has no images of how the show is gonna look. So until we get a sneak-peek or some key visuals, I will reserve my judgment of said description.

BUU8800 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 (edited) There have been some decent cgi anime to be fair. I liked ID-0 even though it wasn't particularly great. And while I would have rather it used traditional art Nobunaga Concerto was pretty cool. Edited May 23, 2018 by BUU8800 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daos Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Here's my question. With modern technology... have we not yet advanced to the point where CGI can look identical to hand drawn art? You figure that would be the first thing they started to work on when CGI got good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a lot of the explicitly crystalline shots of the characters would have worked nearly as well in a 2D style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1gairon Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 But they use outlines, animate on 2's as well as on 1's, and include cel shading, just like in hand-drawings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll agree there, it's not literally indestinguishable from 2d, but if you're not paying absolutely close attention or are looking at still screenshots you can almost mistake it for 2d Animation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1gairon Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Still screenshots make them look 90% just like 2D, because they're not moving, so you don't get any of those smooth tweening interpolations in the forms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
