I hate it. It looks so bad, and I always cringe when it's randomly thrown into an anime.

Not all CG in anime is Berserk 2016 tier, and I hate that so many people seem to think it is. I've seen quite a few anime use it quite well in recent years. Whether they decide to make the entire show CG like Land of the Lustrous or season 2 of BanG Dream...

5FhzwL6

...or they use it to create elaborate battle scenes that would be a pain in the ass to do normally, like in The Girl In Twilight or Katana Maidens...

...there are enough examples of good CG usage to be worth mentioning. But so many people see the bad CG...

Mecha CG is another good use of it. Didn't that new Gridman anime last year also have some great CG?

Some things are better without CG (idol anime, even though Pripara and Aikatsu have pretty decent CG), however I'd throw a fit if the next Idolmaster anime had it, and hopefully Re:Stage leaves it out as well.

Then you probably skipped the first one I posted, so go look at it again. And look at these too.

If you don't think Land of the Lustrous looks absolutely gorgeous, then you need to get your eyes checked.

China is still the king of bad cgi. That shit's everywhere.

Land of the Lustrous is like, a top 5 anime in terms of visuals. There was one scene near the end that could only be pulled off in CG, and it still stands out as one of the most nerve-racking scenes I've seen.

Yep it did. It also mixed in some nice hand drawn stills too. And in the final battle Gridman went to his true form and was completely animated in 2D.

For the planes and dogfights, maybe. For the characters, not so much.

It looked goofy when it was 2D and 3D in the same scene but the 3D models themselves looked great

I didn't think they were great persay, but they were decent enough to still enjoy the show if the whole "2D and 3D characters on screen at the same time" thing didn't make it really awkward. But I ended up dropping it for that very reason. I heard that, besides that problem, the show was really good.

If I said what they actually are, it would be massive spoilers for the series. So I'll just say that they're tiny, fluffy, weird-looking dogs.

The best part about Gridmans CG is that it was motion captured, so a lot of the movements were basically 1:1 how it would look if toku suit actors were actually doing them.

On bad CG, Im severely disappointed in the Ultraman series. The fight choreography is pretty good but the animation looks like a PS1 trying to render a PS2 game
