What Kyoani can do with mecha in-house I do not know. A lot has changed in that field since FMP:TSR. Cell shading on 3d CG models is pretty much the norm now, often done in conjunction with Korean studios. Production IG for example had so much difficulty in finding animators who could draw 2D mecha for Skycrawlers that they had to abandon that idea and switch to 3d computer models. |

Just in case here's ep 5's Spoiler for some 3D in ep 5:
Also if you haven't noticed, some of the BG/objects in the background are 3D with great use of mesh and filters.(NOT THIS SCENE) If we're to talk about Nichijou, yes there's it's no doubt expensive. That's just KyoAni talent gone wild. I haven't actually caught much 3D in that show not like in Hyouka. Well in any case 3D is cheaper and much easier to make than 2D animation that's for sure. Also regarding mecha, yea a lot of them have left but they have added in a lot more people now. They still have Kitanohara so maybe they can work their way through using his experience. Though that gear shifting scene sure was sweet and some of the bike scenes were handled pretty well. If we're gonna talk about action scenes in general, I think Ishidate/Kigami would suffice. If they still had Aratani or the guys from Ordet like Kadowaki(though he no longer works for Ordet), it's safe to say that they can. Last edited by rulfo; 2012-05-27 at 04:58. |

If we're talking about use of 3d in Hyouka, the angle shifting scene in episode 1, when the protagonist first meets Hyouka was a bit awkward. My guess is because the environment is a 3d model, but the character is a 2d cel, and the cel didn't feel like it was rotating in sync with the background.
I suppose that explains why anime consists almost entirely of static or panning shots most of the time. |

Ibara is more popular than Eru? Well, I guess the tsundere is usually more popular in Japan.
For my money, Kotomi, Kyou, Azusa, Eru, and Yuki are the best KyoAni females, though I'd be hard pressed to order them 1-5.

Other than chalking it up to a fondness for tsunderes, I find it hard to explain myself. I mean, you can't explain it by simply saying "I guess people are tiring of Eru" because Eru is high on the list herself. Ibara is simply very popular, period. And while I don't outright hate Ibara, I find that hard to understand.

Newtype neatly splits Kyoani shows into groups:
How to read graph: x-axis: from “serious” to “comedic” (left to right) y-axis: from “cool” to “cute” (bottom to top) Pink: Light novel adaptations Strong Sci-fi, action elements - Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya - Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu White(inside pink): Mecha action: - Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid Gray: Original work - MUNTO series Green: Game adaptations Prominent romantic elements Bittersweet, potentially tear-inducing - The Key series Orange: Manga adaptations Saccharine universe with a group of girls at the center - K-On! - Haruhi-chan - Nyorōn Churuya-san - Lucky Star - Nichijou My questions: - Is Newtype giving them too much credit? ("How could there be four kinds of Kyoani shows when all Kyoani shows are the same!") - Which color does Hyouka belong in? Source

Hyouka hasn't even ended yet. We still don't know how serious it's going to be all up. But at the moment I'd plot it where Melancholy is, the pink region. Similar levels on the cute/cool and comedy/serious scales.
Orange is where all the light-hearted gag shows lie, definitely not something that Hyouka belongs in.

Vote for Sunrise have nothing to do with counter-culture, if anything, they are the most mainstream of the top 4. They are helped by an established and sustained fanbase since at least three decades, and have adapted pretty popular titles such as Gintama and City Hunter. Seriously, if there ever were a paradigm shift in the otaku's taste and resulting demands in the market, Sunrise will be the most likely to recover fast, more specialized studios will have to suck it up or be eaten by the big studios.

Naw, there's one simple reason Sunrise is as high as it is:
Gundam. We're talking about the biggest anime franchise in existence, with a huge number of fanboys. Without Gundam, Sunrise would be an also ran. |
