>>38500832>SM sacrificed details and shading to have much easier drawing and animationBetter animation over pretty stills are always preferred. SM animation is what made me watch Pokemon anime again. I watch cartoons because I like seeing things move. The fact that a series of drawings can come together to form a fluid image is so fascinating and beautiful. J truly love animation and SM is the best Pokemon has had in years.
>>38500852>What makes you think you are so special to feel that your unpopular opinion is more valid than most people who criticized and hated SM animation and artstyle?Not him but since when did more animation = Better become an unpopular opinion? Don Bluth and Disney films are widely praised by critics due to their well-done fluid animation. In anime more expressive shows with Sakuga have become increasingly popular, with shows like Mob Psycho 100 and anything Trigger related becoming heavily discussed and loved despite the more cartoony less realistic styles those shows have.
