There are facts involved with animation. Unlike when discussing art style alone, some animation is simply better than others in terms of the fluidity of movement.

Here is a video which showcases the amazing animation in Soul Eater (spoilers for stuff that hasn't aired on Toonami yet, but the video is in chronological order). There isn't a single scene in 350+ episodes of Bleach that has animation on par with any of the scenes shown in that video.

You're entitled to believe that Bleach looks better. That's a subjective argument, and everyone is entitled to their own opinions. But you can't argue that Bleach has better animation. That's an easily refuted argument.

We're going to just have to agree to disagree. I could probably dig up videos of Bleach that I believe are on par with that, mainly the newer stuff. How can the fluidity of animation be quantified? By measuring frames per second, otherwise it really is just subjective. I'm not talking about art style here, this is from a pure tech standpoint.

Toonami |OT5| Admit you enjoy Bleach at your own expense.

1:55 is when SPOILERS kick in.

 

[mightynine]

Bleach has fight scenes?

(sorry, sorry, couldn't resist)

I didn't watch any Bleach until Toonami returned, so my opinion probably means jack, but from what I've seen, the animation in Soul Eater is far better, but I think that's due to it being a shorter series compared to the 300-plus and counting cranked out for Bleach.

I honestly think Bleach's animation is okay, definitely not as good as Soul Eater though. My #1 issue with the show is its dialogue and banter. I don't expect much from that from long running shounens but Bleach doesn't even meet my low expectations. Everybody explaining their attacks and/or how they negated their foes attacks, the smack talk, the insults, it's all just....well...I don't like it at all.

Plus the VA's really don't seem to give a rat's ass.

It's like Kyle Hebert takes tranquilizers before going into the recording studio.
This is the same guy that gave us the famous "NEXT TIME ON DRAGON BALL Z!" Show a little energy!

DBZ syndrome

 

[Doctor Decimate]

Kyle Hebert should redub Aizen's lines with the same voice he used as the DBZ narrator

I just imagined this and now I can't stop laughing.

I don't get it.

 

[B-Dubs]

I don't get it.

Neither do I. They already brought Gundam 00 over to the US, bring back G Gundam!

 

[Seda]

I thought it was teasing another 00 OVA or something. I may be wrong.

Carry on~

 

[Gucci Messiah]

I'd be happy with G or Wing being brought back

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

+1 for G Gundam.

 

[BassForever]

They just need to back to back Seed and Seed Destiny that would be the superior choice

Spoiler

for hate watching

I find Seed and Destiny ok, but I can see why they both get hate. Especially Destiny

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Seed is awful

 

[Doctor Decimate]

Seed is fine. Destiny needs to be buried in a hole in the middle of a desert.

 

[Tamanon]

They should just bring back the best Gundam series to Toonami.

Spoiler

Code Geass

The reactions would be ace.

 

[The Frankman]

i kinda agree.

no rubbing masturbation plz.

 

[B-Dubs]

Seed is fine. Destiny needs to be buried in a hole in the middle of a desert.

Amen. I followed Seed when it first aired and it was fine. I had some legit FEELS at the end of it. Destiny however was hot garbage.

Geass would be amazing, except for the fact that dub Charles isn't anywhere as good as the original. Original Charles had no indoor voice and that's the way I love him.

 

[BassForever]

It's not really Geass without table-kun

 

[Seda]

I need to see more Gundam. All I've watched is Wing, G-Gundam, and 00.

 

[Raxus]

This made me laugh and I can't even remember why

 

[B-Dubs]

Go find Unicorn. It's the only good one other than Wing and G. Turn A as well, that's good.

 

[BassForever]

I have an irl buddy who keeps pressuring me to watch unicorn because it "really good". Course he's the same guy who thinks Sao is a really good series...

 

[Raxus]

Also, Seda is a mod? When did this happen?

 

[Doctor Decimate]

holy crap, Seda's a mod.

 

[Dr.Palutena]

Congrats and condolences (it's gonna be a hefty job especially with new consoles on its way) alike to Seda.

[Moaradin]

I'm scared.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

What.

Wow, this is unexpected. Congrats Sega! Good luck, you'll need it.

(I guess this makes changing the titles a bit easier!)

 

[BatDan]

What the hell just happened?

Congratulations Seda.

 

[Raxus]

Great, where am I going to post my yaoi fanfic now?

 

[lazybones18]

Da hell?

 

[Seda]

Whoa

 

[Seven Force]

Whoa, congrats.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Congrats Seda

 

[Doctor Decimate]

and now the thread title has to be the "final form" one

 

[789shadow]

ABANDON THREAD

 

[Raxus]

Surely all this power won't got to Seda's head. Surely.

 

[mightynine]

Quick, what shows did Seda like again? Because I love them. With no reservations. Honest.
