I don't get it. Why did they take the CGI route?

>>281732433 (OP)
CGI for unimportant background elements is understandable, But CGI main characters and CGI closeups are unforgivable.

>>281732433 (OP)
because that's what the production committee paid them to do

>CGI route
Little did we know it would get so much worse...

Cheaper.

>>281732433 (OP)
good 3d or 2d is expensive

>>281732570
this level of incompetence is symptomatic, berserk is not a very popular manga among the japanese

>>281732575
Proven wrong iirc

I love when Casca gets knocked off her horse by Adon and then it suddenly turns into a video game cutscene

>>281732874
Is it weird that I think this is pure sovl? It actually looks pretty original and identifiable.

>>281732950
Yes. The entire show looks like complete ass

>>281733033
But it's sovlfull ass if you know what I mean. It will stay with you even after you've finished watching it.

>Why did they take the CGI route?
The only logical explanation is to shit on the fanbase. To take this work touted for it's art and detail and turn it into this
>>281732874
is malcious and intentional.

>>281732433 (OP)
wtf were you expecting, it's a niche manga that's not particularly popular in Japan. It's not going to get a top tier adaptation when they will not make much money from it.
Most of the Berserk audience is westoids that pirate everything

>>281732433 (OP)
Cuz CG animation is cheap, or at least, cheaper than actually trying to imitate Miura's art and retain every detail.
It's why the first anime by OLM settled for having lots of stills and the 2016/17 adaptation was almost entirely CG.

>>281734282
that's not logical at all. these are capitalists and there's no profit incentive. The more logical explanation is there was a catastrophic hardware failure and they had to cobble together what they could recover and rush it out the door for the sake of not being in breach of contract

>>281735175
remember tbate? it's the same with berserk, the japanese artist feels completely indifferent working on this franchise, it's all about finishing this trash quickly so he can get paid and forget about it

>>281732433 (OP)

>>281732433 (OP)
Cheaper to make, I'm sure they could adapt some arcs with 2D animation if they stick to OVAs

>>281732433 (OP)
Honestly IDGAF about the CGI fight scenes, the real crime is making Casca smile during rape

>>281735266
the artists don't have the luxury of acting on their feelings

>>281735175
>these are capitalists and there's no profit incentive
I reject this cop out that exonerates the shitty actions of people and puts blame on "muh system", and you should too. Every shitty thing is explained away with it.

>>281735691
nobody is being exonerated. Japan needs an BMI so that animators can refuse to work on slop without putting themselves in risk of homelessness

>>281732433 (OP)
because it's le unadaptable, didn't you watch the approved youtube opinionators™

>>281735787
>pretending to be retarded

>>281732433 (OP)
It was cheaper

>>281732433 (OP)
It's cheaper than regular animation

Guts in this anime looks uncanny as fuck. It's like they made a model that looks good from a handful of angles only

>>281732433 (OP)
I don't remember the flying horses scene in the manga

>>281732874
They fixed this in the Blu-ray release but honestly by then the reputation was ruined

>>281732433 (OP)
At least the 1997 and 2014 anime both removed Wyald. This goofy ass nigga completely ruined the tension that builds between Griffith's rescue and the Eclipse.
