    Regardless of the drop in animation, TOG is in a shit situation where it’s so dense and packed that a standard 13ep anime is such a disservice, there’s so much that gets left out even back in s1.

Tense scenes just don't feel tense at all like the friends meeting FUG. The payoff is just not gonna be there. I can already tell. Ja Wagnan is garbage compared to the Manhwa. I remember loving him when I read. I just think he's annoying in the anime.

    Ngl their budget is low from what I assume, the studio I looked at they haven't animated much one of their movie anime was animated good, maybe this studio doesn't know how to do fights or just needs a higher budget I am hoping it hopefully fixes, cause they did change the old studio sadly, the story is good its just the animation really needs fixing I hope either another studio helps or they somehow fixes. I'm just hoping or may they using the first cour to get some money hopefully(Edit:Looked into its just the studio is fairly new and for somereason they gave it to them, its not even a budget issue its just they don't have a lot of exprience)

      For most anime, it’s less about budget, but mainly about who they bring onto the team, like how Toei has talent like Vincent Chansard on their side, the time they give to the staff to complete the anime, and then of course like you mentioned, experience.

    • @lycanrocka
      @lycanrocka 5 місяців тому +2

      Yeah, while watching you can even see where it could have been better. Some drawings are weird, bad and overall very stiff animation sometimes. Like with the scene with Khun recruiting Dan. He was talking with sb. He could have just looked at the pocket while saying he needs to hung up bc of Dan and then looking at Dan again. It would have much more impact and feel more alive and not so stiff.
      I think the fighting scenes are pretty good, not stiff, very smooth and . That's when you can see the difference between the animators who have experience and doesn't have it at all.
      And I don't think that it's a bad thing. People for gaining experience must work . But I blame the director for this. He should have watch it and reccomend a small, little things that shouldn't be a problem for new animators to do and still gaining experience.
      Hopefully after the're will gain experience the're animation will be much better and not as stiff.
      And the animation changed because of the manhwa style change. S1 style was very different from current style of the author. It must have been changed for it to not that different. It was also changed bc of the feel. Tower of God was at first like fairy tail world that wasn't really known. But the Tower isn't a nice place. As we get much more later into the story, tower of god chage from light hearted friendship in a fairy tail world into the cruel, not as beautiful cage that people climb without any consideration to one another. It's tower of betrayal. From lying, betraying, leaving others to killing your friends, family, loved ones.
      It's a cruel world, but doesn't mean that there isn't place for kindness. That's what team Sweet and Sour represents. They are kind to one another. They bond with each other become friends and will sacrifice for each other. They become like family.
      That's what current episodes try to show us.

    Bro I feel the exact same way about the show as you do. The animation went down from season 1, I remember when season 1 was airing, people were complaining about the art and animation. I thought the art and animation was good. I really like the art from season 1, I haven't seen an anime with art like that. It felt different, like it was its own original style.
    Season 2 the art feels more generic, like it seems like some regular anime. (Its hard to articulate what Im trying to say) Like it doesnt have that same feel, and like you said you can tell when a show has passion and really puts in the work for a show like they did in season 1, I dont think that same passion is there this season and it shows when I'm watching the show. I dont know the schedule of the anime studio and staff and the work the staff puts into a show but it just feels lackluster. Like you said, TOG made an announcement for season 2 like over a year ago, and it's been 4 years since the last season, so why does it seem animation looks so clunky? Like they just started working on it and had to rush to get it out? Like I said, I dont know much about the work anime staff and their schedules when it comes to anime, but maybe thats a reason why the animation looks like that.
    I dont want to completely just shit on the anime I will give it credit for one thing, even though they have cut out some of the scenes that Bam and his new team just chilling, they are sticking more to the webtoon and leaving out less cuts that season 1 did, so its more faithful to the source material than season 1 was.

  • @urke5895
    @urke5895 5 місяців тому +30

    I started reading the Manhwa after episode 4 when we saw Khun because I couldn't wait anymore. The reason this season is kind of ass with the animation is because the TOG fanbase killed the hype and the money-making potential of season 1.
    I went back and reread AND rewatched season 1 + some yt videos comparing the two side by side, to see what they left out of the original content, cuz mf was bitching about it so much online.
    They left ALMOST NOTHING out of the source material. The only thing they left out was some filler/useless dialog, but even then, the only thing they should have included (slight spoiler) was the few scenes of Endorsi (the short-haired orange princess) and Bam training together (since it's important for later on in the story, no more spoilers).
    Season 1 of TOG was almost an 11/10 adaptation, staying true to the original manhwa. However, because so many cringe fans and UA-camrs complained about it online, the original studio didn't want to work on it anymore, because they saw no money in it. That's why it was passed to another studio, who knows how much shit the anime got last time, so that's why they aren't putting any SOUL/PASSION into the animation/content. The studio currently animating it, can make some visually stunning scenes, but they never animated a shounen battel manga/manhwa, just some slice of life type anime.
    Genuinely, season one was so good, that the fact that people complained about it blew me away.
    Sad to see such a good anime, and studio get ruined by the shitty fanbase.
    Still holding out hope that the animation studio somehow, makes the fights look good (cut it aint looking good so far).

    I just don’t like how they show the scale of the tower, like a lot of the shots are closed in and it’s hard to imagine where they are/ the setting. I feel like more time on showing the setting and setting the tone for each game is key, for me at least. But also the sound track in season one really helped emphasize the seriousness of certain scenes but for some reason without it in S2 scenes feel flat. And a lot of characters are just introduced with no type or lack of background, at least compared to season 1, like bro w the baseball is an administrator that hates fug. Cool but we never get insight on why, or why we should even fear fug. Like the evil group trope is normally done in a way that they appear more menacing, and important but we get introduced to members in such a boring and mediocre way it’s hard to even care for fug.

    As a manhwa reader. A lot of content was skipped in season 1 and some stuff from this season so far, but that's to be expected. TOG is a mix between One Piece and HxH. Length of One Piece and detailed like HxH. Unless TOG got the One Piece treatment of weekly or semi weekly releases, it's just unrealistic to expect things to not be heavily trimmed down. Now we are on arguably the slowest arc but we need to get through it for whats to come later.
    Now for animation. They could be trying to follow how the manhwas style went ugly to better overtime, but even its going to be like this its fine. We have gotten way to spoiled by constant amazing animation all the time. Not everything can have the budget to do that and thats ok. So far season 2 is doing a great job of saying faithful to the manhwa and thats all i can ask for.
    Edit. Also i would highly recommend you watch ani news on this. He does a good job of filling in some of the blanks.

    i just watched a few episodes and switched to webtoon, im about halfway (?) through the hell train arc now, and i gotta say, the art has slowly caught up with the current anime. but even the earlier chapters so like season 2 episode 40 or sth have more soul than the anime, even if the art itself is worse

    Dude I literally watched this whole anime to see this video, like I just finished the latest episode and yes, you’re definitely right. After binging season 1 and 2 back to back I did notice a drop in the quality and I think you explained it perfectly in the video. It just didn’t feel like the same show anymore, the animation makes it look like any other anime and it’s really a shame. I remember when I first started season 1 I wasn’t a fan of the artstyle but it REALLY grew on me but it’s like bland now. I’m still trying to trust the process with the build up and shit but it’s still really sad to see a genuinely good series ruined by the animation

    If they go all out on animation for every single fight they’ll go bankrupt and the show will be cancelled before even getting to the fights that are worth spending the money on. Of course I want the fights to look dope too. I just think there being smart and saving the money for the big fights.❤

      @@rh___15__y exactly. It could have. It’s not really “my logic” it’s just looking at how much the animation studios make vs how much they spend. Like chainsaw man for example. They spent so much money on season one and didn’t make as much as they predicted. People were worried they’d cancel season 2 but despite not making the money they have fair they’ll make up for it during the second season.
      Spending that kind of money is a gamble. Not every show has one peace money.
      The reason they’re willing to take big losses is because whenever they do find a show that makes tens of millions it makes up for the anime that got canceled because not enough people supported it.
      It’s the reason so many reincarnation anime’s exists and anime’s that have some kind of game system like solo leveling and sword art online exists.

    I will say, the story does take place from Bam's perspective.
    Season 1, he was full of life, with a bunch of friends. Though sad experiences transpired for all, Bam cherished EACH and EVERY personality he came across, EVEN when they betrayed or attempted to hurt him :/
    Season 2, comes after an a time skip, which we have no idea how long (as far as I can remember?), AFTER Bam has just been pushed to his *obviously unexpected* and untimely "death" by the person he cherishes MOST in his Life....and he doesn't even WANt revenge.... he just wants answers for why, and to make sure NO1 else has to die.
    HE DOESN'T WANT TO BE IN FUG. But if he doesn't...the entire Tower knows who his best friends are, they're freakin famous celebrities. And they will kill his precious friends, A TERM HE DOES NOT USE LIGHTLY AND REFUSES TO MAKE MORE of, because the LOVE of people is how they control him to complete their objective.
    So...when watching a story unfold, remember who's story it is. Bam is in a dark place mentally, but he still has an incredibly loving heart. Anyone else in his position would probably have noped out at the pressures of such responsibility, but HE is an Irregular for a reason....he doesn't want to play by the rules of Violence to win--only if it's the only option left. And even THEN, he'd rather sacrifice himself then let anyone else take the fall for him :'(

I really hope next episode carrys. In terms of pacing, i actually think the pace is pretty good considering the lenght and depth of the the next big arc, so they definetly had this first arc has a very introductory thing, and i think theres nothing wrong with that. I really feel like if they had mantained the art-style from s1 it would cover a lot of this mid/bad animation and would give more originality to the anime

    so to answer your questions about why tog s2 is not cutting it like s1 did am just gonna leave this comment from reddit: Hey! So I just wanted to talk about some of the reasons why tower of god season 2, looks the way it does right now and why it is currently struggling. I am an animator myself that has worked as a second key animator and clean up artist. I have not worked on tower of god season 2 nor am I claiming to have worked on it. The reason I wanted to make this post is I am seeing a lot of MISINFORMATION being spread and it is very annoying and bugging me on a personal level.
    First off, no this isn’t a budget issue. I am generally surprised that this is a debate that budget = animation quality. A lot of anime’s with vastly different animation quality have the same budget. It is 2024, I am generally surprised this is still a thing people need to learn about. Most of an anime’s budget isn’t even directed at the animation. If budget was equal to animation, literally every single big i.p would have fantastic animation quality.
    Second of all, one of the most important things is what staff is working on a anime, what director, what producer. That is even more important than the studio itself. If a studio puts a bad director on a series, usually the series itself will look generally bad. When an anime is getting mad by a new studio, or a not as popular studio it is not necessarily a bad thing if the staff on itself is good and they have a healthy production.
    The reason why tower of god season 2 is suffering and will continue to suffer is because the director sucks and the production for tower of god season 2 was bad. Leakers like months ago have said this, and I remember making a post clearly about this and getting downvoted into oblivion. Them not having a lot of time to animate the season with a not experienced director equals a bad product.

    there changes, cut scenes, rushed scenes, change in lines or atitude in the adaption of season 2.. but so far its not bad like in comperason, season 1 had did crimes (mainly taward rak and quant, but also lero ro and baam) with some decitions...
    if u'll stop compere the seasons and different studio decisions you might enjoy again from tower of god..
    remember season one aired when covid started so it was some unique timing to watch it, everyone stuck in home looking for something new to binge, and tower of god was brand new for 2020..
    hope you'll like this season by its end... even if less then season 1, but give it its own honorable place
    p.s. i know season 2 can be boring sometimes, when i read i literaly said to myself "new characters? i won't get attached to em, they all can die" and then they hit me and started enreting my heart too.. and when the story gotten abit better it was worth it.
