Subject: So, all these complaints about Berserk OVA using CG...

I'm an Indonesian Halo (and other games) gamer!
Bhineka Tunggal Ika!!

Just finished reading the latest chapter of a manga called Berserk not awhile ago. It was great, go read it if you haven't.
And since it's a seinen (manga targeted at older people) and not your typical shonen--blam!-, I think lot of Floodians could appreciate it more.

Anyway, on to the subject matter.
If you see this two trailers: [1] [2]
you would notice they are using CG alongside 2D animation for the trilogy movie-adaptation.
Or watch this 10 minutes part from the first movie to see it in action more clearly. It's in Japanese, but I'm just talking about the animation here so it's okay.


My question is: Why the -blam!- could people keep nitpicking on the fact they're using CG? I mean, it's not like it's full CG or the CG looks like -blam!-. It looks -blam!- great for -blam!-'s sake! It LOOKS good!
But noooo, everywhere I'm trying to get info about the OVA, people keep saying, "Blegh, CG" and all that stuff. -blam!- you guys.

So to anyone who have watched the vids, what do you think?

Well, that's your opinion.
It's actually a great read. As good as 20th Century Boys, Pluto, and all that jazz since it's not a harem or shonen stuff

I work at Microsoft. I have nothing to do with Halo and nothing I say is "the official word".

It looks like CG, and CG clashes with the regular animation whenever it's used alongside it.

Also, that looks like a lot of CG :V

Ehh, the most important thing imo is that the art style be consistent, and CG doesn't let you do that.
It's not like the CG is amazing or anything either

I still think the CG is able capture the art style, with its limitation and stuff. Not too mention a lot of the fight involved a lot of people in full-body armor.
