| Can anyone with expertise explain what's going on with the shadow line half way through everyone's body? Is it just as simple as a stylistic choice? Once I noticed the thing it became so very very distracting with how unnatural it appears |
| New mechanism of shadow lol. more interesting thing, they are only doing it on humans nd backgrounds like houses etc have normal shadow... |
 |
| Not to be rude or disrespectful, I’m genuinely curious. There is a lot about anime that is not realistic, but this bothers you? Why can’t you just ignore it? |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |

I think OP is actually interested in the production process that causes the shadow effect, ignoring is ok for casual viewers like me, but doesn’t explain anything. Oh I see, thanks for explaining. |

| Artist here 🙋🏻♀️ It looks like lazy work to me. Though it does carry your eye to the focal point (their faces) at times, it’s completely unnatural and distracting. The animation in general isn’t great, and they use still frames a lot. So sorry to say, I don’t think they had a readon for it. They just didn’t want to put in the work. |

| As an artist... it pisses me off honestly. It alone made me consider dropping the show XD. It's not a stylistic choice it's just them being lazy. Generally when you use an overlay shadow like that, it's over the entire scene as a single shadow that's cast over everything to represent maybe something large looming overhead. But for some reason they apply it individually to the characters where it makes literally no sense and they use it way too often in situations where it just shouldn't be. It's like they just didn't care. Seriously midday out in the open and for some reason the characters have this shadow over them... and for some reason, for every person the shadow is cast the same way with no regards to the actual environment and how it would affect them. I would really love to meet the people who signed off on this. Edit: On a side note, had they used it properly and only when they were outside next to buildings... it probably would look fine. I just don't understand why they did it this way. It's like they wanted to use it as some quick way to add depth or mood. But to be honest, with how bad it is... it would have been better if they didn't do it at all. |
