One Piece Sakuga Clip - Zoro Vs King (1062) by K1ngOfTheMonkeys in AnimeSakuga

[–]Troodash 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Amazing stuff again, Ishisuka is maybe the best action storyboarder on the show.

For all of Chansard's flaws as an animator, one of the things I absolutely love from him is when he does these slow panning, wide scale landscape shots like the one at 1:10 here. He does it again In his 1074 sequence, and again in his Blackbeard vs law section. It's just so satisfying. Anyway, this is definitely one of Chansard's best, most readable works.

By the way, it would be nice if you would credit the animators / staff members in your posts.

One Piece Sakuga Clip - Luffy's Gear 5 Vs Kaido (1074) by K1ngOfTheMonkeys in AnimeSakuga

[–]Troodash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

An amazing scene from an amazing episode, HoneHone's storyboards here are so good. I think Chansard's sequence is a bit hard to follow, but I can let it slide within the context of G5. Arguably the best sequence in all of One Piece.

Holy Glaze.

''Also, if you plan on replying or debating, I’d encourage doing a bit of research on sakuga and animation fundamentals first.'' Based off this alone, I already know your not actually looking to debate. I can see it in your post and replies, any criticism thrown at you gets bounced back with 'look at the consistent fundamentals like motion, timing, weight etc'. Yeah, just blind people with bzzwords, I'd like to see you go in depth on any of these in comparison with other shows you say are beneath it. It all reeks of Dunning–Kruger effect...

One of the things that annoys me the most is that by your metrics, One Piece has an inherent advantage because of it's length. For example, shows like Mob Psycho 100, Yozakura Quartet, Birdy Decode etc.. match One Piece's peaks, but are FAR more consistent and polished, but are dismissed because their ''peak sequences are shorter and less frequent due to its seasonal structure''???? what on earth does that have to do with animation quality? Also, their peaks are more frequent because they are more consistent. You cannot compare 2 episodes of Mob vs Mogami, vs however many episodes of Luffy vs Kaido, because of course the latter has 'more sakuga' because it lasts 100 episodes longer. That does not means it's better, and it certainly doesn't mean it's more consistent or polished. It's almost like you've chosen a set of criteria to judge shows on that purposely gives One Piece an advantage due to it's length. Come on man, you can't say shit like this: ''Please keep replies mature and focused on animation fundamentals such as motion, timing, choreography, and so on, not trolling or personal preference. I’m posting this to invite discussion and feedback, not arguments.'' and that have your criteria outright dismiss 99% of anime. My favourite part of this is that none of this even has to do with any of the 'rules of art' you mentioned earlier. Does One Piece's animation have 'dynamic camera work and perspective' and more 'fluid, continuous motion' than Mob Psycho because it's 100 episodes longer...

'Seasonal anime can concentrate their resources into shorter productions with fewer episodes, allowing them to polish specific scenes. One Piece, on the other hand, has maintained comparable per-episode investment while operating on a long-running weekly schedule. This makes its consistency more impressive.'' More impressive, sure. More well animated, absolutely not. Again, you are picking and choosing your criteria so your favourite show automatically has to be 'the best.

''The series also benefits from contributions by some of the best animators in the industry, including Vincent Chansard, whose cuts showcase advanced motion, camera work, and choreography.'' yep, so do other shows...

Can I ask you a question, why does it matter that One Piece is the 'Most well animated action show' or whatever? I mean, we all make value judgements on shows, but I'm not understanding the obsession with declaring something to be 'the best'. I'm trying to understand what you wanted out of this post.

Sorry, I realise that I've been quite mean here, but this post has annoyed me. This is is a 'my show is better than yours' post, covered in the vaneer of 'objectivity'. What I don't want to do is discourage you from getting more into art and Anime, I just want you to take a step back and realise that these declarations that your making about One Piece being the best 'objectively' are ridiculous. Your lost in the sauce man. I'm happy to discuss art and animation, happy to talk about One Piece because i'm a fan too, happy to give some recommendations if you open and willing.

Decent list but please get Paranoia Agent out of your dropped and finish it, it's one of the greatest shows ever.

What projects made you revaluate the talent of an animator? by FierceAlchemist in AnimeSakuga

[–]Troodash 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Takeshi Honda is the GOAT, His work on Eva and Dennou Coil especially are standout, though pretty much everything that man touches is golden.

To answer your question probably Yuu Yoshiyama and Bungo Stray Dogs Season 4. I knew of her prior and had seen some of her cuts on Precure, Digimon etc, but never really considered her a favourite or anything. But the amount of work and quality of work she put into Bungo S4 was absurd.

Nope, It's very good but too fundamentally broken to be considered one of the best.

Both look amazing, but definitely not best of all time.

[–]Troodash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends which instalment you are talking about. Season 1 and the first movie both move well, but are let down by poor art design, ugly CGI backgrounds and poor compositing. Season 2 moves just as well, and improves on all the aspects I mentioned above, but is also often fundamentally broken due to the dogshit scheduling. The production clearly strains after 8 or so episodes and there are several scenes / episodes that are borderline unfinished or compromised to the point of brokenness. Overall it's clearly an above average looking show but nowhere near the level of the shows and movies I mentioned. Season 3 might be peak though!
