Mask of the Phantasm was a movie though.

Compare it to things like Ghost in the Shell: Innocence.

You can spend time making more frames of animation when each frame is simpler. It's the inherent tradeoff between eastern and western animation styles when working with a similarly constrained budget. Either it's simple looking and does a lot, or elaborate looking and does very little.

American animatiors at least try to have their own style. All Anime mimic the same style, but with slight variations. There's a reason why Anime isn't very much respected among art professors. There's a reason why there's no Anime movies in any Top 50 Animated movies of all time.

Generally, yeah. A lot of anime is converted from still manga, which is a major factor.

Also Japanese studios are often stingier.

Indeed. The first gif is from the original Futari Wa Pretty Cure series (over a decade old, hence why it looks a bit dated), the second is from Go Princess Precure (one of the more recent ones), and the third is from Heartcatch Precure (widely considered one of the best in the whole franchise in terms of battle scenes). Almost all of them are standalone series with their own unique stories (a couple are second seasons of the previous series, but they're clearly labeled as such) so you can just pick any one and jump in.

I see, thanks! I'll definitely add all three of them to my Plan to Watch list. I'll most likely start watching as soon as I get caught up with the second season of Overlord.

80% of that episode was basically still frames. That's how. The remaining 20% looked amazing, but it also sucked up a majority of their budget for the entire season.

It's one thing to preferred art style it's another thing to call objectively good animation bad because you don't like the art style.

The pein fight is a good example of good animation and divisive art style.

What are you talking about, that season had at least 2 more fights that where of equal quality

Granted mha looked so good that season because they had twice the time they did season 1

It had 2 other good fights, but they weren't to the same quality. The AM+Nomu fight and the Deku+Todoroki fight are on a level of their own relative to the entire rest of the series.

Someone who brags that they spent over 1500 more days on an internet forum than someone else is a lot more likely to be a "pizza faced dilbert" lol

Someone being anti-lgbt is a pretty good indication of someone being a garbage human being. The actual siren song of virginity is someone who brags they've spent over 1500 more days on a video game forum than someone else.

I wonder what's more unused, your boxed anime action figure collection or that useless slab of virility you jokingly refer to as a penis.
