00 had that fancy motion blurring that made the battles look better than they actually were... Animation-wise, there were quite a few fights in that show that were pretty atrocious (like the one in Moralia, I think it was? A bunch of MS's just standing around shooting each other, no different from Ep 6 of this show) But nonetheless, the choreography and effects (visual and audio) in that show was what made everything look and sound so dynamic.
This show however suffers from poor choreography, no doubt about that. Its not that the animation is particularly bad (in fact, Ep 7 has some pretty good mecha animation, basically as smooth as those from any mid-series episode in 00) Its more that the different pieces of animation during the fights seem disjointed, like everything was pieced together. For example, they show the animation of one suit swinging its weapon, and then skip over to the suit getting attacked just falling down without showing the actual contact.
Granted, its much better then Seed Destiny's copy+paste garbage, but still, it makes it feel cheap and boring nonetheless.
