Will hand-drawn mecha animation ever come back?

>>23433945 (OP)
No, by 2030, it's likely every mech show switches to 3d. Gundam barely gets by, it's possible they next sunrise Gundam show will be fully 3d.

>>23433945 (OP)
It's crazy that this aired at around the same time as SEED.

>>23433948
Requiem was already fully 3D. So was IGLOO.

>>23433952
And it looks amazing

It's never gone tho.

>Posting clip from 5 years ago
Stop coping and just admit that it's gone now.

>>23433972
Those were side projects, a better example is Hathaway, and Freedom.

>>23433945 (OP)
>come back
Where did it go?

>>23433945 (OP)
No. The future is now.

He just gave you proof too what sunrise does and you go “NO THAT DOES NOT COUNT ITS OVAH”
Besides 3D has gotten significantly better over the years as technology has so it doesn’t always look like crap

Not always.
Just most of the time.

>>23434343
That’s what I’m saying, it’s either a big hit or a severe miss, pic related is most certainly in the latter category

>>23434343
Oh Jesus, is this the new TV series and not just some video game?

>>23433945 (OP)
No
Even if they go back to 2D, they're not gonna draw it by hand

>>23433945 (OP)
If ever it does it will take significant investments in money and time, as well as interest from the public. Unfortunately, this will likely not come together for some time.

>>23433945 (OP)
If the industry stops spreading so thin.

>>23434122
Now look at the new Hathaway trailer and tell me it's still there?

>>23433945 (OP)
what was the last 2d animated mech show, the last one I remember is probably WFM, but im sure im blanking on something

>>23435314
Grandbelm, WFM used 3D assets for ms at times.

>>23435314
>>23435337
Gbitch was like 50% 3dcg or traced CG.

>>23433949
Tomino can actually story board. Fukuda is a hack.

>>23435388
>Tomino can actually story board
And hoard all of Sunrise's top talents for himself due to his clout too.

>>23435403
>noooo fukuda needed more... talents!!!

>>23435337
I knew I was blanking on something
And it was still mostly 2D, you know what I meant
