That's quite a stretch, but okay.

Honestly GoHands production isn't bad, it's just specific people which are in control of studio deciding to push the "signature" GoHands things without even thinking what is wrong with their sense of style are the problem - so if someone finally tell them to finally get them straight and stop it, I am all in...
...Like it ever happens.

They did say "capacity". Which is correct. They do have the capability.

I can see why a company looks at gohands, go hands is one of the best when it comes to inhouse production, like they were airing two shows at the same time and there were barely quality dips and the numbers on the staff side of things stayed almost the same.
Its just that the shows on screen look, like that.

GoHands has an incredible animation team, but there's decisions made that just keep ruining the output. It'd be nice if this buyout could introduce a third party that could step in and say "we're not gonna do individual strands of hair, endless camera movement, muzak and filters this time".
But that would mean it's not so GoHands anymore I guess...

Well this might be a welcome change if not introducing to monopoly in the anime industry.

Agreed. I genuinely enjoyed K Project because GoHands hadn't yet achieved the final form of their "house style." If someone new can rein them in, and let the animators flex in ways that actually appeal to the audience instead of repel them, they could be a very cool, stylish studio.

Outside that one instance of plagarism of the Tokyo Babylon adaption that got canned what's wrong with them? GoHands works seem to do decently well and they get a lot of work.

I think GoHands is the best animation studio currently operating in Japan and I'm basing that on The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses and Momentary Lily.

That is something I've thought/wondered about them. K certainly had its embellished animation and shots, but not excessively so. Was it that someone there was able to get it toned down a couple notches, or was it that it was early enough that it wasn't yet GoHands as we currently know it?

For me personally, I see K as the start of current GoHands. Yes, they used filters and stuff before, but it felt like K is where they really started hammering down the style and saw that it worked really well (the series was very popular at the time I think). Since then they've been trying to recapture that success.. But obviously, I don't know.
Also, K was their first original anime (they'd only adapted stuff prior), so maybe they felt they had more freedom.
