Terrible Screenshot Thread

[Eve]

I haven't had time to actually go through the episodes to thoroughly demonstrate how poorly animated they are, but here's a glimpse at Predator Hattori that I noticed while skimming just 522:

Spoiler: 521-523 Spoilers

They can't even get the dimension right

[PhoenixTears]

But why is that "chibi hattori"? Maybe I can't see what you mean with just that one frame.

The large eyes, I'm guessing.

The proportions are very wrong in it.

Some of the traditionally animated episodes have poor frames and such, but for then, it's kind of excusable. Now, with the switchover to digital? I can't really be so forgiving. What's particularly troublesome is how frequent the budget team has gotten involved in the 500s. For 521-523, they only animated portions of it. Unfortunately, they were very important ones.

This one's my favorite from what I did look over of 523 just then, because it's like Kudou's saying: "Guys, I'm not an imposter. Where would you get such an idea? C'moonnnnn~~"

Spoiler:

The 500s are the worst of the lot simply due to the frequency and prevalence. Back in the day, the important cases would get the utmost attention and look very good almost all the time. Nowadays, the budget team will come in for a bit and do a manga case while the quality animation team is relegated to a few AOs.

If Kudou saw this picture of himself, he'd likely decide it's best not to return to his body anytime soon:

Spoiler:

All in all, screencaps won't tell the whole story. Seeing the consistent budget animation for 24 minutes will more suitably demonstrate the problem at hand.

The large eyes, I'm guessing.

Even just for the hat: The logo's off to the side and the actual hat itself is way, way too big.

Ah, good point. I was too distracted wtf-ing at Hattori's eyes to notice the hat.

So just as an example

Episode 523

Spoiler:

Episode 592

Spoiler:

[Kleene Onigiri]

@Jd-: Yeah. Newest example is the new AO that came out and you could call it "high-quality animation" for a AO :/

Still at the hattori screencap: I wouldn't call it "Chibi". Since chibis got a big head and not a big hat ;P

[kkslider5552000]

This is a very QUALITY thread. :p

No worries, I was referring to how huge his eyes were and pointed out the weirdness of the hat as an afterthought. Them's some big eyes!

And speaking of eyes...

Episode 523

Spoiler:

Those are Kir's eyes!

Perhaps there was more than one imposter in that case after all...

[PokerFace312]

Spoiler:

I burst out laughing when I saw this one! >.<

[Tanner-kun]

I don't remember what ep it is but, I noticed it when I was making a AMV once. In between 3 frames Ran's horn flipped from the left side to the right and back to the left.

[kirite]

Spoiler:

Hahahahaha *breath* ahahahahaha xD

[Suutashi]

not as weird in screenshot form as in the show itself, but I think it deserves mention anyway:

Spoiler:

they just kept getting wider and wider.

O.O That's going to give someone nightmares.

[shihokudo]

they don't have faces...except for mouri..

[Tanner-kun]

they don't have faces...except for mouri..

Genta might have eyes.

[kkslider5552000]

they don't have faces...except for mouri..

Actually if you look really closely they all at least have eyes and a nose or something like it.
