I don’t think they intend for any of these Marvel shows to be big draws. Plus, 99% chance all of these Marvel shows are outsourced to external studios to animate. Still not an excuse for the low bar of quality, but it is what it is.

The better question is why Humanz had so few. Is he…is he okay?

In my mind, it's very much playing to the strengths of a given style, and understanding what kind of story is being told so it can influence the design decisions. Obviously, as a sitcom, this probably works for them. Scrolling by though, the backgrounds jumped out at me before the characters did, which seems…not…

I'm always torn between two arguments about animated sitcoms:
1.) Animation is expensive, shading takes time and budget, and they're trying to run as lean as possible. or 2.) The creators of the shows don't have a specific vision in mind. All they know is it should be animated, and therefore can easily meet the…

I didn't want to be the guy who called out the animation, but I keep eyeing this and trying to find some kind of appeal to it. The backgrounds and background elements are actually well done, but the character designs and lack of depth are really bugging me.

The obvious answer is a used FR-S/BRZ/86.

Hmmm. Yeah, I’ll probably not buy this one. I have the first Splatoon and played it for a few weeks before never touching it again. I did try the testfire thing for Splatoon 2 and...yeah, didn’t really have fun with it. Now, if they took a shot at a TF2/Overwatch style game, I’d be all in on that...

And I was calling water wet in an attempt to sidestep any unfair criticism of the animation choices that were made. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Calm it down there. I was acknowledging their stylistic choice for stripped down, cheap animation, which is relatively inexpensive to make. I -meant- to be dismissive of it for completely different reasons.

Honest to goodness, I was going off topic of this movie completely. I have no gripes with the character designs of this. More of a general question.

Side question: why do so many western creators go for such grotesque caricatures of humans when they DO stylize their animation? I'm not saying everything should be all anime and moe, but give me some variety that isn't intentionally off putting.

I also saw the trailer for this before "Your Name." I get the Adult Swim, "it looks terrible and cheap on purpose but also because it is cheap" thing, but otherwise it just came off as one of those indie comedies that tries too hard to be cute.

I legitimately thought the series ended with "Damn Bundys," where Al sells his soul and it ends with him in hell with the family and neighbors.

Man, that image says a lot of things. Mostly “how to fail sci-fi weapon design.”

The only answer I can come up with: “lol LA”

I suppose I can share this story here too:

WHAT?! Come the fuck on!

The true problem with Competitive can’t be patched out. Which is that playing solo is an act of self hatred.

Someone really needed to take a look at the synopsis for Infinite Jest. Actually, I think I’ll just go re-read that one.

Winston is good at chasing Genji, as long as the rest of his group isn’t around to wreck your feather-dusting shit. Junkrat is also good if you’re any good at the ol’ mine toss and blow up mid-air trick. I’ve had a few good laughs when I stopped a rampaging/ulting Genji with no effort because my mine hit him right in…
