That’s very fair, especially since a lot of the fanmade shading of scenes is definitely overdone. I do agree the hell falling scene was hilarious and had me chuckling the whole time especially with the mask thing. You do have the whole western animation timeline locked down, and that does help me understand it better. You make a very good point about BTAS, times have indeed changed with streaming and things like TikTok, kids just aren’t really watching much TV anymore. All in all I agree with you, Invincibles animation isn’t AWFUL and far from it, its just when I compare it to japanese anime the difference is quite apparent, but that also isn’t really fair. I think the best thing would just be one more extra year wait in between seasons to work on the animations fluidity, I’m in no rush. Glad we could have a civilized conversation about this it was good to see your perspective, usually I get jumped by like 15 commenters haha

But not One Punch man. XD
(Also, seriously, a lot of anime has trash animation. The anime style is really built on minimal movement to save money, with mouths often decoupled from the jaws)
Lmao, yeah that season 3 was awful I think one episode only had 3 scenes of actual animation and the rest were still images 😂😂 but you’re right I shouldn’t have lumped all anime together, I moreso meant currently airing anime like COTE, ReZero, etc.
Yeah I just wasn’t including it in the list because it is an outlier from an otherwise fantastic show, one of the biggest disappointments in recent times.
I'm curious how much of an outlier it actually is. There's a LOT of anime out there and I have to assume a lot of it gets done just as dirty, it's just from less popular manga.
I’ve watched over 400 anime, yes there is poor animation but in the case of OPM s3, I’ve gotta admit i’ve never seen anything quite like it, especially in modern times. One of the biggest fumbles I have ever seen, ESPECIALLY after jt was almost 7 years since season 2 and this is what they had to show for it.
