The Devil Tesla posted:Take a look at Baby Steps, where every court has the same fence and they don't erase space for the faces looking through it. Because it's always the same they can just draw and color it once and then just layer it into every new scene they make. In Haikyu they have to change the net they layer over the faces each time to get the look they want. It's more work, but they have more money and manpower to work with. In real life our eyes can focus onto faces behind fences and nets, but you can't recreate that phenomenon as easily in a 2D medium so they do the erasing as a way of letting you see the faces in focus.

Mo_Steel posted:Is it me or did the animation in Takuma's match in this week's episode of Baby Steps (ep. 17) look different? It seemed a lot more fluid? Dynamic? Maybe it was that it wasn't cutting between mostly still shots of each player but rather showing the whole court, but you could see lots of details like them shifting their balance and footing. It felt like it stood out. That's because the animation was very likely rotoscoped, or at least that's the way it looked to my eye. The animation for Baby Steps is not normally all that great (isn't it Pierrot who does this one?) so I wouldn't be surprised if they used that technique for more complex motions.

AVeryLargeRadish posted:Yeah it's Pierrot and low budget even for them. And I agree about the use of rotoscoping, though it's used really nicely here. Rotoscoping is totally valid when used correctly. I didn't find it used badly here, it's just jarring to see so many frames and naturalistic movement suddenly appear in a show that normally does just serviceable animation.

ManOfTheYear posted:Sports manga is surprisingly a ton of fun: All-rounder Meguru is probably my favorite manga now and the Yowamushi pedal is fun too. Where else should I look besides the stuff in the OP? I'm a bit picky about the sport in question (gently caress ballgames) and it seems that a lot of the stuff isn't too sport specific, like if it's about swimming it's just fanservice or something. You should watch Chihayafuru.

In terms of gay subtext, Yowamushi and Free! have it a lot more than Haikyuu, I think.

Sparda219 posted:My heart is so raw right now. Stupid volleyball boys. I think it's also great how they demonstrate that he deserved the win, instead of just it having been an accident or stroke of luck. He was able to analyze and read their move in the end, and had worked hard to get where he was. I think he sort of represents the potential that Kageyama could be if he understood people as well as his team better. He's made steps, but Oikawa has much more experience.
