196In which episode does this happen? Asking for a friend...
The first time I watched it, I was like, WTF? Did he just tongue fuck piccolo?
Another amazing moment was when he penetrated Goku with his special beam cannon
I don't get the whole "Invincible has bad animation" bit. After seeing what actually bad animation looks like in One Punch Man, I can't take it seriously.
Watch 80s and 90s anime, then try to watch any animation after like, 2005. Its painfully bad in almost all cases.
It has to do with a trend both shows have exhibited involving having unusually high quality in their first season, securing an even more lucrative deal with a streaming service, then switching to Microsoft PowerPoint for animations despite having made magnitudes greater profit.
The drop-off isn't even comparable though. I don't know if I just watched a different show to everyone else, but season 1 of Invincible wasn't as flawless as people remember it, and the later seasons aren't as bad as people claim they are. On the other side, season 2 of OPM was worse than any Invincible season, while season 3 is one of the worst seasons of any show ever.
The biggest difference is that Invincible was still given resources by the studios, just with much less time so they could have a yearly release schedule. The producers adapting it cared about the material and have enough sway to get a decent, sustainably produced show. OPM did not have producers with significant sway, and was given minimal resources and time for the anime. Imagine having twice the wait between seasons as S1 and S2 of Invincible, while the animators only get half a year to a few months of production time. They just aren't in the same league.
You're probably right. OPM season three is by far the worst offender in this trend. I think Invincible might be getting the level of heat it is by merit of being the latest.
Also the season 4 pinch zooming gif had a little more audience reach than the garou slide did
It’s less that it’s bad animation, which it is, and more that it has severely declined in quality, especially compared to season 1. The overuse of blocky and stiff 3D models is what really does it for me, it robs the show of a good deal of artistry.
Never forget, never forgive
Even season 2 of OPM was worse than anything I've seen in Invincible. At most Invincible had lackluster direction in some of the action scenes, but nothing felt so bad that it was distracting
I didn't make it through all of S1 of Invincible (though I've read the comic a couple of times and really wanted to like it), but at one point during a conversation William had two mouths because they pasted the open mouth over the closed one and didn't have it in the right position.
I also noticed in S1 of Gen V during a fight scene you could literally see the seam around characters' faces where they'd been stuck on the stunt actors, so after that I just assume anything from Amazon made recently is going to be sloppy. That was probably the least of Gen V's problems though.
The corpo slop comes for everything eventually
Don’t forget some of Kill-la-Kill’s most iconic moments, brought to us by courtesy of Microsoft PowerPoint.
Does this qualify as Yaoi?
