Seven years ago on the 21st of July, the highly influential animator Yoshinori Kanada passed away. Kanada's pioneering style helped paved way for making stylish and interesting animation, even when working with limited drawings and his style continues to influence many animators today.
I wonder if they ever regret naming Seiya Numata as Kanada's successor considering how unremarkable he's become.

just start dumping some lad what else do you want this thread to do
Josiah Perez
"They" as in?
Dylan Cooper
NHK and some japanese anime academics.
Nicholas Cook
Maybe he was at the time. After all, we've seen numerous flagbearers of the Kanada style over time starting with Masahito Yamashita in the 80s. Then there was Hiroyuki Imaishi at one point and these days we've got Yoshimichi Kameda as the top Kanada style animator.

>miso (animator) is only 20 yo >already better than Bahi
Bahi BTFO'd
Luke Butler
Bahi went straight to animation, not animation school.

So did Miso. He started working right out of high school.
Isaiah Martin
In all seriousness, Miso hasn't done anything as wild as Bahi's Space Dandy cuts yet.
Nolan Taylor
Miso and China is the true OTP. I want them to get together and make a perfect sakuga child.
Isaiah Young
Thats what bahi looks Like? Disgusting
Brody Foster
He's Iranian/Austrian.
Levi Ward
Just a guy with same name.

Kanada is shit desu So is Imaishi
Owen Rodriguez
If Kanada is shit, why do so many animators copy his style?
Parker Lee
Because they can't copy Iso's style.
Kanada's style was formulaic enough that anyone and imitate him.
Aaron Long
He has to go back
William Phillips
Bahi is now in Japan, bringing much-needed cultural diversity there.
Coloring and composite reminds me of Chinese web animation, it looks kinda cheap. Some decent cuts there though.

Why can't Bandai get Ufotable to help Toei with DBS?
Josiah Torres
Tales of Zestiria so far is very safe and by the book for Ufo in terms of production. Prologue had some effort but right now it is pretty much template-work with reused frames, storyboards and scenes from their other shows and stuff and low effort fight choreography.
I am not surprised if the fight was storyboarded Miura. That hack has never had an original thought. Copy pasting shit form your previous works is right in line with his soulless approach. The fact that he is involved only proves my point about budget saving and templates. Masayuki Kunihiro is also proof of that. If you want lots of bright nonsensical flashes at your screen while not having to storyboard actual fight sequences, he is your man. Pew pew BOOOM badumts PEW. All the easily impressed people can then clap and say the usual "ufotable budget" memes, because their sensory receptors were stimulated by the flashes creating illusion of exciting stuff happening, when in reality it was just two characters skateboarding from one screen side to other.

Posting some Pokémon XY because there's good stuff in it.
>now it is pretty much template-work with reused frames, storyboards and scenes from their other shows and stuff Any examples?
Carson Ward
This, there's no fight choreography here, just fast movements and filters, looks.

*looks fucking stupid. (My post got cut off for some reason)

that looks stupid, like she's sliding all over the place

toei is perfectly capable of animating on their own. just a matter of resource allocation. And apparently gopri or SM's 2nd season were more important.
Alexander Kelly
At least it's better than Shirou v Gil. Maybe they're improving.
Adrian Howard
>toei is perfectly capable of animating on their own Clearly not since most of their series look like shit most of time.
Nathan Taylor
>I literally only know Toei via DBZ
Michael King
>One Piece >World Trigger >Precure >Toriko >DBS >Digimon >Sailor Moon Most of which look like shit.
Owen Sanchez
do you not know who phils is
Joseph Foster
>they have to dump most of their shit on Toei phils >which results in shit art and animation most of time
>toei is perfectly capable of animating on their own.
Make up your mind.

are you pretending? i'm not even the same user

Trust me, no other studio can beat I.G for that 'realism-choreography-sakuga' right now. Especially when Okiura is in the charge of that scene. Wew, I miss old Madhouse and their Inoue to be honest, the only studio can compete with I.G in realism sakuga.
