I'll be frank here: If you don't like the CGI in this show, it's not because it's terrible, you're biased against CGI and will continue to hate it no matter what. CGI is the core of this show with its' fluid movements, dynamic camera angles, and surprisingly solid face animations (that look better than most of the seasonal slop 2D anime, take that as you will) coupled with phenomenal story-telling and a far more serious tone than the OG Trigun from the get-go.

We're used to CGI mixing poorly with the 2D background elements, but that's not the case here at all, even the blood ... looks good (yeah, I am looking at your airbrush ahh blood Kaina of the Snow), not to mention that everything is textured properly, has physics (even the hair!) and sits well within the show's style.

The story is full of new plot twists and story beats, so even if you're coming from the OG, you'll have a pleasant time watching it. The characters are well-written and funny (not in a "HaHa FuNnY" way) and their dialogues flow naturally for the most part and are complemented by subtle animations.

All in all, I cannot recommend this enough. The negative reviews are, for the most part, people whining about the CGI and gatekeeping animation to 2D only, so don't feel discouraged by their reviews, and give it a shot!
