Arifumi Imai (今井有文) might be the only animator who can make Levi looks this good with 3D Maneuver Gear. Seamless and perfect synchronization between 2D animation and 3D Background is his skill.
Since Yutaka Nakamura (中村豊) greatness on Pokemon MV is too fast for us mortals, here is slowed down version to appreciate all the details he added in his scene.

It has been forever since Yoh Yoshinari (吉成曜) did something this crazy looking animation. He and his brother are truly out of this world. Because no human being can be this good.

One of the things that made Houseki no Kuni

really good, is that the staff tried to make long scenes with two or one cut only. That is one of the benefits of CG over 2D. Limitless camera movement in a 3D space. As you can see the result was amazing.
Key animation(genga) comparison showcasing interesting martial arts fight scene and really impressive cloth animation. Bless both Ryo Araki (荒木涼) & Tetsuya Takeuchi (竹内哲也) who worked in the entire sequence on Hinamatsuri.
Nice to see that

and few amazing animators were responsible for the amazing 2D effects on Dr.Strange's What If...? episode. It looked perfect with the whole 3D animation.
WIT Studio continue the tradition of making pre-animated footage for the PV. But who gives a fuck it looks COOL AS FUCK. Probably animated by the show superstar Arifumi Imai (今井有文)

. It's not as experimental as

but still it's polished and great.
Kai Ikarashi (五十嵐海) is one of those Animation Director that's so talented to the point he can alter the character designs as he please and it's all gorgeous pieces of art. He did wonders with Yoshinari's designs and I'm all for it.
In today's FGO episode, Hironori Tanaka (田中宏紀) returned the favor to Onsen by animating the climax scene so beautifully. Since Onsen helped him big time on Azur Lane episode. Tanaka + Onsen is a match made in heaven.
The wait is almost over, October 8th we'll get the full Yoh Yoshinari (吉成曜) treatment on Indivisible game OP...The teaser already look too goddamn good.
It looks like Fire Force is going to have sexy fire effects, and some of them is probably animated by Hironori Tanaka (田中宏紀) & Kazuhiro Miwa (三輪和宏). Hopefully most of the show look like this, and not just the first episode.
Key animation(genga) comparison for Shingo Fujii's (藤井慎吾) LINE PV where he invited his trusted friends from all over the industry. Including his BONES friends Yutapon & Norimitsu Suzuki (鈴木典光), to animate those girls dreams beautifully.

in their recent shows. First LWA TV, BNA...and now Cyberpunk: Edgerunners
Hathaway's Flash is what I call a true movie production, a showcase of character animation, detailed in every way possible. Every cut in the movie is thought off. Even tho I don't know much about Gundam lore, it was worth the watch just because Shukou Murase (村瀬修功) direction
I have few silly reasons why u should bother yourself and watch the first 27mins of Eureka Seven Hi-Evo Pt1
-Looks gorgeous from every standpoint
-Naoki Sato OST that elevated the experience
-Industry biggest Mecha & Fx animators on it
-2D Mecha cause this shit is almost extinct
Lets not forget Ufotable incredible composition team. Who know exactly how to make Nozomu Abe animation perfect. the way the team applied motion blur to his effects is insane. It worked amazingly with his timing as you can see here.
