weird, I don't know any other anime that's just based off an original movie

i'm kinda hoping LWA is gonna be more episodic stuff and not a full-length epic adventure anyway

Parallax

also it's not really fair to judge based on trigger's other works since this is yoshinari's first full series as director, right?

i don't think yoshinari is directing, is the problem

there are a few key staff who worked on the movies that aren't working on the show

yoshinari is definitely directing, it's positions like art director that aren't coming back, so stuff like the backgrounds won't look as good as they did in the ovas

yoshinari did handle some roles like character designer before that he won't for the series, but LWA is still definitely his project

Bottom left and middle I think work "better" than bottom right.

I mean I like the design of bottom middle, but with the Shaft head tilt seems kinda overly confident and out of character for her; it could've worked if her character was a sassy teasing older sister type instead of the more doormat-esque shy fangirl she currently is; unless this changes?

Bottom left fits soooo much better with what's happened and seems like she's seen some poo poo and is scarred for life; just wants to curl up in the fetal position and cry.

Top middle is too symmetrical and uninteresting and gives me a sense of remorse that I don't think fits Tanya; top right is at least looking up and alert.

Top left I think works and comes across as sinister but also the eyes are kinda weird and accidentally makes me think evil snow fairy.

Bottom right is I think fine on it's own merits but seeing bottom left is basically making me think what could have been.

Ep2 of Tanya is very good; I love how they had the voice actor of Kichou from Thunderbolt Fantasy as well. It all fits so well.

e: Evil Tanya voice is the best and is basically all I want from this; realistic depiction of artillery is the bonus; how do you make streamable gif's?

do you know how animation designs work

You don't fire your entire core staff unless you're in some kind of massive death-spiral; everything will break, and nobody will be able to fix it. It's much more likely a bunch of people just left or something, which is a thing that happens all the goddam time at any tech company that isn't Google or Facebook.

actually it sounds more like they did fire everyone because crunchyroll was run like poo poo and those positions are being outsourced to another company

Someow I doubt that translation monkeys would be considered "core staff" in a business like this though.

I don't know if they even have translators on staff or if they're freelance, I just meant this kind of move probably doesn't bode well for higher wages for translators, higher QC, or anything like that

could just mean they acquired the team they were outsourcing to

I'm legitimately a bit disappointed by this. Silver Link has been doing some great, loving adaptations recently, with things like Tanaka-kun wa Itsumo Kedaruge. It'll be a shame to see them start making (probably) mediocre original stuff.
