It’s really a matter of opinions though. Because you say that it may have “a weird doll-like appearance” but I think it looks completely fine. |

It's the same studio that made Knights of Sidonia. Before commenting like this did you even watch that masterpiece of an anime?

I can't wait for it ! The CG is kinda new to me but i will take it over no Souten No Ken. I hope this series (and the prequel one) gets licensed in the near future.

The comparison makes sense to me. Both Kentaro Miura and Tetsuo Hara have extremely detailed art styles with a lot of muscular detail and pen-and-ink elements like crosshatching that are essential to the look of the character designs. So neither one of their work seems like a very good candidate for a good looking 3DCG animation show.
Overall, the visuals in this are kind of a mixed bag. Some of the first scenes in the trailer look pretty bad, but some of the scenes towards that end actually looked impressive to me compared to the other pieces of Polygon Pictures shows I've watched.

That's because you watched it on streaming. Watch the corrected version on BD or it's not worth watching. Same goes from pretty much any good show. CG anime also have inconsistent off-model shots that eventually get corrected on the BD.

I apparently will never understand why 3D anime artists/animators in Japan still think cutting frames to the extent that 2D anime does looks good. I have nothing inherently against 3D, cell-shaded graphics, but that choppy movement puts me off every single time. And sometimes details like the muscle lines just strike my eye as a flat texture pasted on a smooth model as opposed to the actual depth of sculpted muscles.
I feel they either need to have 2D art and cut frames per normal or have 3D art and don't cut frames (or at least not as many). I will say, though, that this does not offend my eyes as much as what I saw of Berserk, for what little that is worth.

Man, and I was looking forward to this one, too. Everything looks good in static shots, and I like the character designs, but as soon as they start moving it looks choppy and stilted. I'll still give the first episode a shot, but my expectations have been duly lowered.

My point was that regardless what series it is, every new 3DCG anime gets compared to Berserk 2016. I think we all can agree that Berserk 2016 looked bad, but this doesn't necessarily mean that every other new 3DCG series will look bad too. [/quote]

That's true. They should have went with 2D, but I'm still curious how this will play out.

Anyway, Polygon needs to realise that CG anime needs more frames. |
This.

There's already a Souten no Ken anime and it's a million times better than this.
