>>40102590>1. Animation was awful. Just about every scene that wasn’t reused or stock footage was just the characters standing around talking, barely any actual movement from anyone.Bad animation =/= reused animation
If you said "It's bad because there was a lot of reused animation", you would have had a good point. However, you went the sour way and criticized the animation itself which wasn't actually that bad overall.
>2. All three Guzzlords appeared for no reason and did not even interact with each other. The only purpose they served was to get blasted by Z-Moves.You haven't been watching SM, have you? Every time the Ultra Beasts appear is for "no reason". Again, your "doesn't interact" argument is good but you ruin it with ignorance.
>3. There was zero buildup to any of it. The Guzzlords appearing, Naganadel showing up, Kukui’s mask being blown off, it was all incredibly random.Kukui being revealed as the Masked Royal has been built up for the ENTIRE SERIES. Hints have showed up here and there for multiple episodes. We don't know how the next episode starts, so we don't know the reason for the Guzzlords and Naganadel yet. However, if they just start the next episode right away with explaining any of this, then yeah, it's dumb.
>4. The OST were the same themes that have been used throughout this entire League arc, most notably the Regi Anime Theme, all playing for the umpteenth timeWhat the hell do you expect for an anime nearing its end? A bunch of new OSTs they will only use once? The end of the series is the perfect time to use old OSTs for the last time.
>5. Only the Classmates, Gladion, and Hau did anything. Every other League participant, even the ones who were at the Closing ceremonies, like Ilima who has access to both Z-Moves and Mega Evolution, were immediately forgotten about and never appearedYou forgot the Kahunas and the Tapus. I agree that seeing them and a shiny Guzzlord in front of Guzma's house would have been nice.
