| I have been loving it, imo I can’t put it above Studio Orange works like Houseki no Kuni and Trigun Stampede, but the 3DCG in this is great and is definitely up there as one of the best I’ve seen. |
| Hard to compare. If we are talking facial expressions, Trigun Stampede and Beastars are on the top too. But these 2 have more realistics expressions, while Girls Band Cry is more Anime-esque type of facial expressions... It goes to personal preference I guess. I personally love both styles and can't compare because of how different they are |

First, the depiction of the expressions of each character is good and flexible. Then, the level of accuracy of using 3DCG in their musical instrument playing is high I would say. I would like to know your opinion and how you rate whether Girls Band Cry can be the best anime that uses 3DCG or other anime have other advantages in 3DCG? 3DCG anime that comes on my mind it's Bang Dream!!. it's one of my most my fav anime plus that the reason I'm excited to wacth Girls Band Cry when it's announced to be next upcoming anime next season back there. |

Riz_III said: isn't it already the highest rated full cg anime on MAL? Nope. Its score keeps getting higher, so I can at least see it surpassing MyGo. Whether it's temporary or firmly establishes itself above it is anyone's guess. I don't see it surpassing Land of the Lustrous though, which is even higher. |

| When it comes to 3dcg anime in general I think land of the Lustrous tops it. That shows so gorgeous i refuse to watch it anything but english dub because I feel like you just miss out on the visuals reading subs |

| @SpritezUp I think, at least to me, Girls Band Cry is way better than Land of the Lustrous. Land of the Lustrous has a really special atmosphere, an interesting and imaginative setting and a story arc about the loss of innocence and personality that we won't be able to appreciate in its fullnes until we don't get its second season. But Girls Band Cry is more about the so called "Human condition" from the perspective of teenagers during their formative years and I am more interested in the later even though I appreciate the former. |

| "Can this anime become the #1 3DCG anime?" I haven't seen many other 3DCG anime so I'm not entirely sure. However, it can and will be #1 in my heart. What I've gathered from this discussion is that I need to watch Land of the Lustrous. It's going on the plan to watch, I'll definitely give it a look. |
eggrollSource said: I have Toei to blame for making me want more 3D anime, something I never thought I’d want. Couldn't agree more with this. I'd love to see more 3D show of similar (or even better) quality. Fell in love with fluidity and how alive characters feels and how adorable their expressions can be :) |
| It's already become one for me. |
| Didn't yet watch Girls Band Cry, but I highly doubt it can beat https://myanimelist.net/anime/35557/Houseki_no_Kuni |
| Houseki no kuni is better and it's not even close. |

| @Zarutaku I love Houseki no Kuni, and it's one of the best anime for me story-wise, but they're two different kinds of anime. And the characters in Houseki aren't even humans, but rather precious stones in the shape of humans (animating the movement of the hair seems easier). |
| Just judging the animation alone, I've always preferred traditional 2D (whether old fashioned handpainted cel animation or the new iteration of that after the digital transition), but as far as 3D CGI goes, the ones which have always looked best to me in anime (just taking the animation and use of CGI into account and nothing to do with the story and writing, music, voice acting, etc.) have been: - Houseki no Kuni (probably the gold standard, but I also think that there's something inherently logically intuitive about using this form of animation for humanoid gems who are shiny personified versions of blocky geometric shapes to begin with - something was brought out about the depth and luster of these precious stones which, if not better than it could be or would have been in 2D animation, then at least decidedly distinctly different and therefore worth doing for that difference) - Beastars - Dorohedoro But I would say this is at least a close contender and should be somewhere in the Top 5. |

I would like to know your opinion and how you rate whether Girls Band Cry can be the best anime that uses 3DCG or other anime have other advantages in 3DCG? It could, but the story is somewhat holding it back a bit. I think every other aspect of the show is really good. The music is great, and the visuals are quite appealing, too, plus everyone likes nice hair and cloth simulation. And I love how every time they perform the camerawork and fx go nuts. As for usage of 3d, there are actually a lot of great 2d anime that use it fit really well, from what I can think rn, Danmachi4 p2 had a very nice 3d boss and water simulation, 86 was cg in every fight scene, although some people did not like it. And shows like Osama ranking and Bocchi the rock actually use 3d but then draw on top of it, a technique called rotoscoping, that's why when you see Bocchi perform sometimes it looked 3dish. But overall, I also think that this anime helped set the bar for the next 3dcg anime. Taking about that, I saw a trailer from one called To be Hero x that looked like it could be the next great anime when it comes to the usage of 3d. |

| @Ryushindai I think the biggest reason for those two being on top is everything other than the characters. the sets, that orange builds are on a different level. Having much better art direction is also a huge plus. |

| Here is a youtube video of the layers of its 3D animation and how it was made. It is a funny thing that when 3D animation is almost on the treshold of becoming aestheticly pleasing AI generated animation will displace it before it becomes more widely used |

| Fans of this anime are so delusional. I don't think it's better than land of the lustrous. If you're talking about mal rating, even if it passes land of the lustrous it would be wrong in every possible way. The cgi in this anime isn't as good as everyone say it is. Everything looks way too unrealistic. At least more than most good cgi animes I've seen. Maybe people confused good design with good cgi. The rating here already is way too high than it should be. If this anime becomes more widespread than it is then the rating would drop significantly. The only strong thing this anime has for me are the songs. |

| @ryzxgum While I agree that it's a very good looking film, I also think it borrows too much aesthetically from Western 3D animation and ends up losing much of the character that I have come to expect from anime. |

| @TheKillerAngel not a problem for me, perhaps even why it looks far better than other cgi anime i've seen and i could only wish that others looked as good. |

| It would need to beat Gantz:O which is no easy task. |
