That's putting it nicely.
They look terrible. That gradient shading effect and the way the show is lit looks absolutely awful. It must be embarrassing to have that airing next to a show that looks like this:

I should have always known this bet was anything, but safe.
My soul, too, is pure.
Watching it on GyaO.
Tsuritama 01
Crazy amount of CG but it fits in well enough so I won't complain. I dunno if I like the way it looks or am sorta put off by it though. I had a difficult time investing much in the show. It wasn't bad but the everyone in this so far just seems defined by some wacky trait, and most of the weird situations didn't really feel like they were justified in a world that still has some grounding in reality. Not sure this is really my thing but I'm open to giving it a couple more shots.

The music and sound direction kinda reminds me of Ponyo too. Plus, fish.
Absolutely joyous show.

Does Tsuritama have its own OT?
Those are supposed to look better? I personally love the style used in Apollon, and the lighting I find amazing--the music shop, especially so. Every shop I've been in, myself, has used that exact palette of brown/orange/black, and was/is just as dimly lit. It's almost kind of scary how much that pulled me in on a personal level. I actually went 'no fucking way' when they stepped into the shop. Every one. It's nuts.
And why I can't agree with you--at all. Ask yourself if Apollon would even work with that garish palette.
I'm not saying that Apollon should look like Tsuritama. I'm saying that Tsuritama looks beautiful and has tons of visual appeal while Apollon looks awful.
I really do forget who I'm dealing with.

I'm only basing this off of MAL, so there's a fair chance it's wrong. There's not exactly a whole lot of information about this show out there in English.
I hope it really is 26 episodes though, that would be a lot of fun.
Sakamichi no Apollon - 01
I love watching shows about things i've performed before, and in general love watching things i've experienced*. It's the Jazz to Nodame's Classical, and I like it. I wish there were more musically focused anime. Also, when I get more free time i'll analyze whatever the piece is in the OP at a piano for fun.

Why don't you try and refute his points instead of going for the ad-hominem attack.
Haha, real nice. I'm actually looking forward to that.

Speaking of the OP; Those eye animations really are my kryptonite, particularly Sentaro's.

"Apollon looks awful", or "Should be embarrassed airing next to Tsuritama"? Those points? As for the quick mention of shading and lighting, I addressed why those worked for me.
My goal is to one day watch as many terrible shows as wonzo. He's my hero.
No you didn't. What does the color palette have to do with the shading or lighting?
And you pretend to be a monocle. Your hipster-dom is exposed.

Tsuritama 01 I really liked it. Haru is adorable
I think this and Apollon will be my favourite new shows of the season. With Space Bros and Lupin too.

Do you have anything worthwhile to add or is making unfunny non-posts when somebody disagrees with you just your thing?
Insubstantial posts get insubstantial replies.
Hyperbole should never be used to support an argument though
I feel like I've already covered this sort of thing you do earlier in the thread:
Watanabe's past shows look pretty amazing, so that's a perfectly defensible position. Just posting "Kids on the Slope looks awful," not so much.
Cool, but that's not what I said at all. That's what your edited version of my post said.
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Part VI
Bwahahaha. Kyon has no shame.
But, yeah. That was freaking epic. And... Melancholic?
And then, Kyon has his usual internal dialogue discussing
So...
And dat music!
...
Freaking awesome.
I'm 100% satisfied. I liked literally all the characters in this, and I want more. I feel like that may be my ruin, though.
Bwahahaha. Kyon has no shame.

Kyon and Haruhi discussing how they feel about the "real" world... While huge scary-ass monsters loom in the background destroying everything... And then start coming towards them.
And then, Kyon has his usual internal dialogue discussing
what Haruhi means to him...
YES!
...
*Cue OP*

Is the shading not a style? And I mentioned lighting.
And let's back up a second. Before you try to harp, actually make a point past a blanket assertion.
5 blanket assertions, across two posts, with not an ounce of substantiation.
I don't really understand why you keep bringing up that post that reminds everyone how much you like calling the kettle black.
The first post has a blanket assertion but it also has other points. The second post is only a blanket assertion because your reply had not much to do with what I said (if anything) so I didn't consider it an actual reply.
Try again.
I didn't edit anything when grabbing those quotes, aside from adding the tabs.
Uh, the shading and the lighting looking bad is a point. Why is that considered a blanket assertion?
That's why gets the most reactions, plus I don't think there's anything unreasonable with what he said, if he thinks it looks awful, then he is perfectly entitled to his own opinion, not everything has to be a circle-jerk when it comes to watanabe.
Having an opinion is different from stating it as fact.
He's perfectly entitled to his opinions, but it's pretty silly for him to demand substantive rejoinders when he says nothing substantive.
I never stated my opinion as fact.
That's your opinion.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Just by looking at it, I think the one really prominent towards the end is Moondance in a different key than the original.
Maybe they can gaze wistfully at each other from across the room.
Haruhi was the first fan-subbed show I watched from start to finish.>:
I still don't know how or why Haruhi S2 happened but KyoAni better not pull that shit off again.
Haruhi S1 was fun.
