One of the skills that ufotable picked up during the development of Kara no Kyoukai was the blending of CG and drawn animation together to reduce the amount of effort necessary for an animation scene. Several stills and detailed objects are rendered in CG, then drawn over manually to make it appear like it was hand drawn. There's the usage of bright colors in animation heavy scenes to distract from animation inconsistencies. There's a lot of shortcuts that ufotable has learned to do with those movies to save time and budget, and they're simply applying it to TV anime. Not to say that these shortcuts aren't impressive, since they tend to blend in naturally and you wouldn't notice them at a first glance. It's a rather unorthodox method to be sure, but if that makes it appear "movie-quality", then I'm really all for it. It still will also cost a pretty penny too, but don't really think for a second that this would really completely break the bank so to speak. |

Yeah, I noticed that the backgrounds seem to have too much depth to them. And you can clearly see CG in some of the CMs (the clouds in Rider and Velvet's CM, the metal things in Lancer and Archibald's CM, even the Gate of Babylon in Archer and Tohsaka's CM. Even so, this is the best CG work I've seen in anime. I hope more studios adopt ufotable's techniques, because they KNOW how to actually use CG to not only cut costs but also make scenes look absolutely stunning.
Not like Aniplex hasn't done it before with DRRR!!, using 24 eps for only 3 novels. That said, I recall Urobuchi saying that the anime would include things that were not in the novels, so I'm sure they will fill out the blanks.

And it worried me, TBH. The material is plenty, but not enough to fill 25 eps IMO...

Talking about CG, just remember how Angel Beats was faking their quality using half-assed CGs. ufotable is using it as a 'productive' mean, not like angel shit.
When people say 'movie quality', it is basing the opinion for 2chers who actually went to premiere event and said that 'exact' words. So, there is no doubt about it. Blah Blah Blah. Quote:

Archer you forgot to mention the ufotable motion blurring!
As a TV series more than likely not, but I'm more impressed by DEENs animation in Read or Die OVA than ufotable's in KnK. Also if given enough time and budget even mediocre studio's can rise to the occasion. Look @ Artland and their work over the last 10 years. Mushishi is by far the clear standout (and not just in animation), Artland hired a lot of gun freelance animators for that series and it was completely animated in 2s which is is rare as fuck for TV anime which is primarly done in 3s. |

From my knowledge, ufotable is a group who are even more obsessed with Sakuga than Kyoani, due to younger average age of animators. So we can expect something.

Hi... this might be off topic but since this is the only thread that seems active I decide to post my question here in hopes someone can help me.
Believe it or not just a few minutes ago I finished playing Fate/Stay night pc version with the English patch and start reading the fate /zero novel but a question is tormenting my soul . In the end of the heavens feel ending Rider tells Tohsaka that she needs to talk to her in private and Tohosaka says that they can chat at her house the next day. What is Rider question or about ? what they need to talk about ? |
