I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed. They keep doing this.
It's not even that CGI is inherently bad, but NO ONE can seem to animate above Star Fox SNES tier.
Who is watching this 20fps garbage they keep pumping out? Is it a genetic thing and slant eyes can't detect over a certain FPS?

Probably some old man affected by the radiation (random mutants showed up sometimes in the anime, never outright said, but with the nuclear apocalypse setting it was par the course) rambling about how this era needs a savior, a light in the darkness, or something to that effect.

I don't get the insistence on HnK having some amazing animation, so you have to post clips from, respectively, the Raoh fight and the episode where Juza dies which is near the end of the show itself.
Most of the series is primarily stills sliding around the screen, that's like half of the show's sense of humor.

I think what people enjoyed most with the old anime was a combination of aesthetics, sound design, voice acting, music and directing, but the animation itself was sparse as you say with only a few episodes or scenes getting something special.
That said, if you did a proper 2D anime in the modern age it probably wouldn't run into the 80s anime problem of being extended to hell and back which might constrain the budget. You gotta use somewhat simpler designs too though, like in the 80s anime, or part 1 Jojo as an example.

Like I said last thread, Kenshin pretty much got the ideal remake treatment but save for the I.P. entering the modern collective conciousness again (and subsequent art of Kaoru and Misao), it didn't amount to much because it's effectively just a watered-down version of the original .
Now unlike Kenshin, a Fist of the North Star remake like that could be neat if the animation was buffed up more sure, but they didn't even do that with the show from the bubble economy 80's, what in the world makes you think they'd do it now?
Now I say this not having seen New Fist of the North Star so for all I know that's probably the ideal outcome, and sure it'd be neat to see Souther and Juza like that, but the time for that probably passed fifteen years ago.

The main issue with the 80s anlme was that it did the typical thing of extending shit to hell & back and not taking breaks for cours or production in the same way they do today. If a proper anime was made today it'd probably be able to cram more budget in per episode. But yeah, replicating the music and the voice acting was always gonna be impossible especially since a few standout voices like Raoh and Rei, uighur/akashachi are dead and the rest are retired

Because most of the budget comes from licensing these IPs.
"My Girlfriend Just Had Pizza For Lunch" isn't going to get many people to ask for their share of the pie, so more money left for the animation.

I don't get it either. I grew up with HnK and it's objectively shit. Recycled animation and shitty powerpoint everywhere. It's not QUALITY but it's massively recycled and kind of meh. That said CGI is worse. I understand sloppening something with a cuck MC like Berserk but Ken deserved more respect

Who is in charge of this bullshit? HnK is one of the most beloved manga of all time, the original anime is well respected too. Who the fuck thought this was okay?
Is this because Baki and the new Kinnikuman flopped?

Baki has a devoted fanbase and Kinnikuman only flopped in the west(probably because it has no dub and normalfags only watch dubbed shit)

I probably just wasn't paying attention, but I don't think Japan cared that much about the new Kinnikuman either. Because hey, who could've thought making a new anime based on a decades old arc, while not doing the previous arcs was a bad idea.

I stand corrected then. That only makes the decison to make the new HnK a CG abomination all the more baffling.

For me the funniest thing about HnK is that over the course of the story there's like 4 guys that wanted to fuck Yuria.
Was her pussy really that good?

I'm just giving AI some time. In a decade, you'll be able to prompt an anime adaptation with the animation quality of Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust.

It was me! The Emperor sent me a missive asking what I wanted to see from Japanese anime in the Reiwa era, and I said that Japan makes the best CGI so they should make more CGI shows.

The charm of anime has never been Disney-like animation, but very detailed characters and lovely backgrounds. Look at Sailor Moon S1 and its watercolour like backgrounds, even if the animation is bog-standard it still looks and FEELS pleasant. CGI shit always looks like shit, "b-b-but it's more animated" who fucking cares that has never been the point of tv anime.

Hokuto no Ken in particular is famous for popularising a certain type of ultra-detailed yet stylized art.

It's not just the art, but the "cinematography" for lack of a better word. Even low budget anime that have lower fps than a powerpoint often are able to convey position and movement far more dynamically and "third dimensionally", and have far better choreography in those movements, than almost any western animation. Wester animation in as a rule has a huge problem with being unable to portray anything as not happening on a flat 2D plane (see the infamous dogmatic adherence to the 45 degree tilt) or using more than one "camera angle".
