Martin Reyes, an animator for Blue Lock season 2, shared in a TikTok video that he was assigned to work on five episodes at a time for minimum wage and with very little time. This led to the show's subpar animation quality. He left the project after animating only one episode.

Martin Reyes, an animator who worked on Blue Lock season 2's episode 2, took to his TikTok account and addressed the issue about the sequel series' horrid animation. According to the animator, he started working on the sequel series about a month ago and was to work on 5 episodes. Martin started working on episode 2 in which he was to manage 20 cuts.

Here was when the problem started, as Martin stated that the animators were offered minimum wage and a negligible time to do their work. Despite this, Martin and the other animators associated with the series did their best.

Blue Lock season 2 has been criticized as a disaster, with viewers calling it a "PowerPoint presentation." While the reasons for its alleged poor production were unclear, an animator from the series recently revealed the harsh realities of the Japanese animation industry, highlighting how financial issues impact quality.

Martin Reyes, an animator who worked on Blue Lock season 2's episode 2, took to his TikTok account and addressed the issue about the sequel series' horrid animation. According to the animator, he started working on the sequel series about a month ago and was to work on 5 episodes. Martin started working on episode 2 in which he was to manage 20 cuts.

Citing the controversy from Jujutsu Kaisen season 2, Martin noted that production teams take on new projects solely for profit, disregarding the poor conditions faced by animators.

Martin ended the video stating that he was to work on more episodes, as he stated before he offered to work on 5 episodes, but after witnessing his efforts rescued to still panels, he left the anime sequel series because it wasn't something he was proud to show the world.

This is one of Martín's cuts, which was either removed or replaced with a still frame.

Minimum wage is crazy. It's sad what's happening but at least the hype is still present.

That's a lot of words to tell us multiple times what we already knew.
