| Not exactly sure why MAL listed this as the second season when it's really not at all, but MAL will be MAL I guess... Can't wait for this second half! With the way this show's story is set up, I have a feeling it'll only get better and better, and more badass as the tournament progresses--and only the very strongest get left. I wonder how much time the other side of the tournament table will take up, and whether or not they'll skip/rush over some of those fights. Hoping it's not too long until I get that Ohma vs Raian fight anyway--as that's the one I'm most excited for. Have the feeling that it'll be a battle between which of their two forms is strongest (neither of which I know the name of at all), and Raian seems way too confident in his... Also really excited to see more of best girl Kure, and Setsuna in proper action as well. |

OppaiLover-_- said: If only it wasn't shitty CGI, this and Baki had so much potential. I disagree completely with you about the CGI being shitty. I thought it was pretty great, or at least when you compare it to the standard CGI show. Here it was well-directed, well-utilized in the fights with an always good sense of momentum and impact, it had a lot of very nice effects (that saved it from that usual "too clean" look), and it was blended very well with the 2D animation. It far exceeded my expectations anyway. |

OppaiLover-_- said: Sorry but your expectations must have been very low then, if you look at the manga art style of both Manga series it's great, and then you look at the anime and they just butchered it. Same thing with hinomaru sumo but atleast that was mostly 2D instead of bad CGI. You keep calling the CGI shitty but haven't actually explained why or how yet at all... What part of its animation specifically, was so low quality and off-putting to you? And are you sure it isn't just you not liking CGI as an animation style? But no, just because I didn't go into this ((CGI)) show expecting the art style to match the manga's (which is actually famous for its quality... And would be just about impossible to do true justice to even with 2D animation...) doesn't mean I had "very low" expectations... I went in with the expectations I always do. The same set of "very low" expectations that got me to a much lower mean score than you for our shared anime. Are you sure you didn't go into this with unfair expectations? Because possibly this style of animation just isn't your thing? I guess I should ask - are there any CGI anime you do like? What do you think of Houseki no Kuni's CGI? And since I can't see this show on your lists, just how far did you get into it? I doubt you'd give it a second chance, but I personally found it improved greatly after the first episode or two, and the proper fighting started. And just to be clear here - I wasn't saying you were wrong for thinking it's ugly or disappointing, your opinion with that is just as valid as mine. No style works for everyone. It's just that I strongly disagree with the CGI and its animation quality being "shitty". It's always well-shot and well-choreographed, its models are detailed and well-stylized, it's expressive while nearly always maintaining reasonable model believability, it blends well with the 2D art and the numerous (IMO very great) effects the staff utilize, and like I said--it also always conveys momentum and impact very well in the fights. Truly shitty CGI is the 2016 Berserk adaptation, or that Overlord CGI, not this. Don't get me wrong, it's far from the best, but "shitty"? "Shitty" enough to completely ruin it...? It should only do that if you have a very strong natural aversion towards the type of animation. |

| A lot of people are going to disagree with me but I don’t care about the animation at all. I am actually pretty excited about another part of Kengan Ashura |
| In all honestly i thought the cgi wasn't that bad, the 3D character models really give the fights a new uniqueness to it, on top of that it was pretty well choreographed, its way more tolerable to look at and the sound effects are actualy pretty decent That said, i still kinda disliked the adaptation because as one of my fav manga it dissapoints me to see somthing that could've be so much better, they cut out quite some stuff, bad pacing, and i can't stomach how they switch 2D and 3D animation, the flashbacks animation are also terrible not really interested to revisit any of the 2nd half of round 2 fights besides maybe Okubo vs Fang and Setsuna vs Nikaido, i will be interested to see if it gets a season 3 tho cuz second round onwards the fights are just absolutely stunning |
 Anime is Great |
| Can't wait, I been reading the manga and i wanna watch the fight scenes in actual moment. The animation is done well at least, it doesn't feel cheap unlike other CGI. |
