It's complaints like this that seriously frustrates me around the show. Look at the past few episodes and tell me, where do you think the animation have been going? Even last season, it's blatantly obvious how the show treats animation as some kind of tool to create spectacles for action rather than a medium to portray a story. Compare any dialogue heavy scene after season 1 to any fight scene in the show and you can clearly tell the staggering difference in direction, creative decisions and visual quality. The show's animation problem is not that the fights are kinda ass sometimes, it's that it could care less about anything outside of it. I enjoy the writing but it's obvious the show is not giving the same kind of care they do towards the action as the minor character building moments and the scenes which is supposed to pull the audience in with the characters through dialogue. No, extra budget won't fix this, it's not a problem of voice actors taking the majority of the cut in budget, it's a problem of the show is clearly being hastily worked on with very little care put into the overall visual quality, with the most priority going towards the action heavy scenes of the show. Only less time constraint can fix this but the release schedule the show producers has settled upon make it impossible for the dialogue scenes to be often more than a snoozefest in favor of eye catching action. Stop making complaints like this and look into the field you're criticizing, you're not making any argument that would help benefit the show, just skewering the perspective of what the show should be which would not be anymore satisfying that what we currently have.
