COMISSIONED THE ABSOLUTE GOD
@3s0_mi5o
TO DRAW ART OF MY SERVER MASCOT AND THEY WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND!!!!!!!!!
IF YOU'RE THINKING "wow this looks cool" GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY NOW. THEY'LL BRING YOUR IDEAS TO LIFE IN THE SICKEST WAY POSSIBLE!!!!!!
This old Shinbo PV hit me like a sack of bricks, I still eagerly await the day he does something for TV SHAFT again. These 3 seconds are already more captivating the entirety of Fate/Extra.
I know the idea of characters interacting with reality isn't anything new, but Kariya's drawings already capture a strong lively essence so when her drawings start bouncing off the pages it really feels like she captures that contrast
in LRT: Ryo Imamura's taking commissions for dirt cheap (About 50 bucks USD). Support him if you can! Don't wanna pass up drawings from a man who makes stuff as kickass and intense as this
Konno's Fire Force ED feels like a unused Shouko Nakamura ending, illustrations that capture the mundane in this enchanting way.. Almost like it's ripped out of an entirely different show.
Yutapon-lookin ass scene in the latest Cannon Busters PV. I assumed Bahi, but i'm not sure if his work goes beyond the pilot since he hasn't talked about it recently. Looks great nonetheless, cute how the water FX looks like it's sprinting with them
What makes Ikarashi such an exciting artist to me is how his episodes goes against the grain of what's usually expected out of big industry events. Yeah they got the staff and the animation muscle that comes along with it, but it's the imagery that truly makes it memorable
Me and
@kbnet_
were lucky enough to interview The Rising Rockstar Ryo Shimura! One of the young talents at Shaft that caught my eye with his graduation work back in 2020. My fellow Shaft Otaku... This one's for you.
Another standout piece of character acting in this week's eizouken, describing it in the crudest sense the motions feel the most "flash-y" here, but it comes out delightfully loose in the end so it works
i’m insanely thankful for
@nomifuki
for getting to my commission so quickly! They’re an incredibly skilled artist who’s taking 1 dollar commissions right now on their patreon, please, please, PLEASE, check it out if you can!
Was lucky enough to interview with Will Feng for artist_unknown. An animation producer affiliated with Studio Trigger. He produced their video game openings and helps scouts out artists for their mainline projects. Check it out!
no you aren't a "アニメーター" nor are you "looking for work" you're in the 9th grade and you're going to study for your second period chemistry test next week
What's your favorite BANK sequence in anime? Stock footage you can watch over and over again that'll never get old
The Card Slash Sequences in Digimon Tamers is that for me, more hype than the actual evo sequences
(Direction: Kaizawa/Key Animation: Satoru Minowa?)
It's a no brainer to point out Mushoku Tensei TV was never going to be as a strong as it's kickass PV that came out a while ago. but with Imamura sticking around, there's going to be brief flashes of well-realized brilliance

@Mokatopia
the first two pics are fanmade while the last two were made by a really good boarder who was under stress during the last episodes she worked on
this entire pic was literally made as a joke
but go on use it as an accurate representation or whatever
shinya ohira... truly a one of a kind animator. his unique style can not be imitated nor replicated- wait, what do you mean other animators can draw like him?!
looking back at LRT, are there more examples of the backgrounds being handled by the animator themselves rather than the bg department? Gridman

comes to mind immediately
Whenever I need a burst of inspiration I always check out Ichigo Kanno's pixiv. His mindful approach of cutesy drawings contrasted with his sinister BGs creates an nostalgic longing I can't get enough of
Cant watch Mob

until later and im sure it'll impress but Yasunori Miyazawa's stuff is still great. Playing with the perspective and abstracting the character models until everything's a mess, no context needed to sell the emotion of the scene here
Nakayama directed the second ED and was the Assistant Director for Casshern and now she's Heroaca's current series director. Kimura also directed Casshern's first ED and was a regular on the show. Yamauchi-bloodlines run deep...
@CookieficationJ
bob jacques has been ADing the newer episodes lately, along with Adam Paloian being a board artist who places a stronger emphasis on more striking poses through clear lines of action
Zhang's Tengoku opening is stylistically daring in all the obvious ways (crazy multiples, distorted outlines) but I love the more subtle ways too (disconnected features, the floating text)
