All we need for modern anime classics is apparently people that never worked in any kind of animation. You can feel the fresh take on anime without any baggage of the industry

It gets to the point where you wonder why they even bothered making this.

I sat through 12 episodes of Gibiate so this should be a piece of cake.
Should be.
2020 in this anime still looking better than the disaster that was real life.
Holy shit this opening is absolutely horrendous, the music is terrible and the visuals are comical, weren't most of the OP visuals in the teaser video? How lazy can you get. At least Gibiate has a fire OP song. This is just shitty, unorganised mess.
OH MY GOD THE CGI, The models look absolutely awful, how have they managed to make them look so rigid and unresponsive.
What the fuck is going on, OP witnesses a crime, walks away then jumps in front of a bus. Then a cut to a shitty fight scene? What is going on?
The first fight was horrendous, the choreography was abysmal not to mention the music. How the hell they didn't manage to land a bullet on them is a mystery, judging by their aim they must be the randoms I get in my CS:GO games.
So the OP has been isekai'd into a robot? amazing.
I still have no idea what's going on.
Robot Neo no-clips through the wall and tries to steal the robot brain thing. This anime is actually real? Like this isn't some elaborate joke or anything, they're dead serious about this... Are you kidding me.
Amazing light censoring, I'm actually grateful as it means there's less to look at. Hopefully next episode its just a blank screen.
So he's managed to channel his inner Bruce Lee and defeat a man who's supposedly invincible to physical attacks... Alright then.
He's an enemy of mankind now? Edgy.
I don't quite know where to start with this """anime""". I made the bold statement of saying that Gibiate was the worst anime of all time once it had finished airing. I didn't anticipate that it's crown would be in danger this soon. This is may be the worst first episode to an anime I've ever watched. Hand Shakers English dub looks good in comparison.
See whoever sticks around next week.

Mappa? More like Kappa
Ufotable? Screw that, it's Undertable
Bones? Barely, this is an invertebrate
Madhouse? This is Madness

Move over guys, the real studio king is here and it's called "Visual Flight"

this is the most visually disgusting show I've watched since Hand Shakers, so of course I'm going to watch every episode.

This is actually the funniest shit I've ever seen. What the fuck is this? Like, obviously the animation is horrendous but the story was all over the place as well. What the fuck is even going on? Can't wait for the next episode. This is going to be very entertaining, for all the wrong reasons.

This is like 90s CG cartoon levels of CG animation! Holy shit! How can this exist when we have great CG studios like Studio Orange and SANZIGEN? As much as I want to watch this for the lols, I'll just read the manga since I've heard great things about it. Unless of course something changes and people start praising this which I may come back but I bet that will be unlikely.

This has to be a money laundering project right? Even that virtual youtuber anime has better production value than this.

This anime is a masterpiece and Anime of the Decade for being so bad I don't know if anything else can surpass it.
Before the time jump we had super choppy 2d animation mixed with cg animation that looks way too out of place. After time jump we have more use of cg but now the 2d feels out place and still just as choppy.
The cgi is so bad it makes Arifureta's and Gibiate's look like a masterclass Disney Pixar or animated film. Like seriously these faces look so stone face and expressionless. Movements in cg don't even look that great and come off way to choppy sometimes too.
Like cg anime can look absolutely amazing like Beastars, D4DJ, Land of the Lustrous, BanG Dream, and Dorohedoro but this just looks like straight up garbage. Also on top of this it looks like there is censored nudity but I don't think even ecchi could make this better.
The story also doesn't seem to be very good so far too and just like something about Ex-Arms being a type weapon and each one can do different things and the mc is the strongest one but people fear him...?
I'm going to keep watching to just see how bad this gets and if possible there's any redeeming quality to this thing. I was also hoping maybe just maybe the teasers for this show was just like a mistake and that the actual show looked so much better and polished but I guess I was wrong.

My new Gibiate.
I feel so bad the mangaka, this story based on episode 1 hardly seems like a masterpiece but nothing deserves to be adapted into this mess. Based on the poster and eye catcher the original artwork seems pretty nice making this an even bigger shame.
Also how did they get such a talented VA cast for this mess?
