Why does anything in anime have to be CG?


Basically
But I've noticed that even in anime with minimal cg, for some reason no one is willing to animate cars anymore, they're just all cg as if by mandate

Thoughts on Aldnoah.zero? The ending is just somewhat absurd to me. Funny how they try to build the Slaine as one of the main character and he doesn't leave much of an impact throughout the entire battle except for the last moment, which is pretty much ridiculous to me.

Raptor and I had a nice discussion about Aldnoah a while ago, if you're interested in reading it you can find it here.

But yeah, they really didn't balance the screen time very well and it's going to make the beginning of the next season pretty awkward for me personally. And obligatory fuck Slaine.

I'm guessing it's cheaper, and it doesn't really affect the viewing experience.

Unless of course the anime is about cars.

EDIT: Hey Drizzle, please use spoilers next time.

I read a gist of the second sentence and you just made me want to delete all the episodes I've already downloaded. I now also really hate you. Really. Fucking. Hate. You.

Probably saves time as well, cost maybe but I do believe time is a bigger factor in the cg cars

Judging by your signature I'd say that this husbando is already taken.

You were asking for the comic, not the character.

Starman's Nemesis is Nash AKA The Mist II, daughter of the Golden Age Mist

Started reading Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari. Thought it was the usual generic shounen shit.

Had a pleasant surprise.

Senjougahara, she's perfect in every conceivable way. As for finding a waifu, you usually realize he/she is your waifu after you've finished the show. And you just keep thinking about her/him.

Deep shit.
