How Beastars Was Made
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- Beastars anime was made by Studio Orange to deliver possibly the best anime of 2019 (and the best 3DCG anime I've seen). I had quite a bit of fun making this video as now i have 3D software I can mess with to make Legoshi (or legosi) do cartwheels so I hope you like watching it :)

Also, check the description of my video for most Sources of Information :)
If you could get an episode project file and it's dependencies and assets you must set the facial animations to 300%-500% and the body animations to 0% (I am aware it is tracked but all the percentage does is exaggerating the tracking data or the opposite.
6:28 and 7:50 which page/source is that?
So there is a book Orange Studio made called the Making of Beastars. I don't have the book, but eBay listings for it contains some of the pages.

This dude bought all this 3D modeling software just to make legoshi do horrific cartwheels. I love it.
Luckily I'm a student so I get the software for free! (For a limited time). I did buy the models though. Also, I do love the horrific cartwheels

@Jesus Christ stay mad jesus. stay mad my friend
The use of 2d and 3D is amazing
"bought"
the animation in Beastars is incredible and it really nice to look at its cool to see what makes it what it is
And the story as well.
damn I feel like I have power 1000th like
Agree. And the attention of detail is just amazing
I agree, and the story is really awesome too
It gave me a video game vibe but still amazing
Fun fact - foxes lack muscles in their face that allows wolves and dogs to snarl. Foxes cannot curl their lips the same way, and just kinda gape their mouths and cough when they're angry
Interesting, I didn't know that
Woo ah I didn’t know that
what does the fox say?
If Haru and Louie had a baby, it would probably be a a jackalope.
oh my god you’re right-
WOW that's so smart
What is jackalope?

The 'smoking Legosi' joke is so funny to me because there ACTUALLY IS a drawing of him smoking, from Paru's debut manga Beast Complex

One thing that i hate is people saying “it’s just some furry sh**” but they don’t know how difficult it was to make this beautiful anime
I heard aboutmanother "furry" anime, its in 2 animation but form my friend i heard its interesting, but i just cant find it- welp its name isn"Odd Taxi"
Bro was inspired from zootopia lol
lmao its unique pieces of media like these that actually show how narrowminded most people are
@@Chill_Bellit actually exists before zootopia 👁️
I am still disappointed that many people dont want to watch Beastars because it is a "furry anime" and it is 3D
I mean, who wouldn’t watch an anime where the creator is using a chicken head for anonymity?
Good tbh. Whenever something gets popular people just ruin it.
I was actually pretty reluctant before watching Beastars, but I'm a sucker for beautiful animation so I said "Fuck it, I'm watching." And ended up watching the entire thing in a day
@@katsukisleftcoochielip Same tho

:/
That motion capture picture, where the guy stands on the table, was posted after season 2 had been announcened and, if I remember correctly, had them ask if people could guess what the project was. I am pretty sure myself that that is from the recording to season 2, mainly because that is what they are working on right now, but also due to the posture the guy is having looking a lot like the way Legoshi's posture is too.
Pretty sure you are right
WHY DOESNT THIS HAVE MORE VIEWS???? I like learned s much in this video and I'm so so happy I did. Beastars is the first thing that I love so passionately and to know the effort put into it and just all this information makes me so happy.
Seconded. Multiple times throughout the video I thought: "wow, Studio Orange used an unconventional but smart approach here."
This covered various aspects that I would never have considered.
Kind of a pity that despite all that love people still largely resent any shortcomings compared to 2D animation, without seeing all the effort and unique values.
Also I kept wondering how OP just figured all of that out as he casually rummaged through the net, haha.
Beastars was already awesome, but this just enhances the experience! Now Legoshi better smoke in S2 and the cigarette better have its own motion capture! #LEGOSHISMOKES
I agree, Legoshi has been hiding this side of him for too long
Wild Side? More like Smoke Side
Only manga readers know if Legoshi smokes or not

Just wanted to point out something about the voice acting: having the voice actors record before the animation is actually the standard for most of the world(doesn't matter if its 2D or 3D). Japan is one of the few places that do it after. I definitely agree that them doing it before for this helped with the overall story, though.
Watching this video describing the anime in detail is just so beautiful~~ Also, learning 3DS max just for this video is super fking awesome XD
Yeah messing around with Legoshi was pretty fun. Geat to see you here. Your videos are really good!
@@Fursonified please do more
dang, this is better than school XD
edit: i didn't realize i would start a conversation o-o
Is it for people who hate school like me lol
Yes
@@reaksmeypak4755 no
@@reaksmeypak4755 How do you hate school? I love it. Honestly am getting bored of summer and ready to go back. (Corana virus is cancelling everything).

In 2D animation it's more common to record the audio first. Then the animation can be tailored to the feeling of the voice. It's only really crappy or cheap animation that records after (or dubs, which is a different story.)
Shupshe that’s usually true in the *west but in regards to *anime it usually is animation first, audio later
As Victoria said, that is more popular with western animation, in which the dialogue and audio is pre-scored, but in Japanese animation, usually the animation is done first with the audio followed afterwards.
Some shows use scratch audio actually, like a rough draft for the voice acting something set in place for the animators to then go off of aswell as the storyboard
Most of what I've heard thus far lines up with what Wynston and Majesticals (first two replies) said. However, I don't think I've seen any concrete sources one way or the other. It'd be cool to see a wide study regarding this topic.
Its also 10x easier to animate with the voice
>bought the Beastars models
Oh how the powers of animating a shipping will be misused

Can confirm
I choked..on air...I was caught off guard
Wth
WhAT
Oh.
It's honestly really impressive how they have handled the CGI with regards to Beastars and Houseki No Kuni, a lot of people seem to think 3D animation is easier than 2D animation but that is simply not true, both styles of animation are equally difficult in their own ways, 3D animation requires not just just artistic skills but technical troubleshooting skills as well, creating a character model designed to be animated is already hard enough, a process that requires skin weights painting, retopology, to UV maping and much more, and thats not even mentioning the actual animating, it's why people normally do this kind of stuff in large teams to spread the insane workload.
Every frame of BEASTAR is a masterpiece. The flow of animation is calm af.
fear, surprise, and ANGER (the angry face legit caught me off guard and I almost dropped my phone) 3:32
I like to think the smoking wolf is Legoshi’s dad after he retired from his profession.
*Nervously sweats in Manga spoilers*
Amazing video!
Legosi, NO, DON'T SMOKE!!!
Don't worry smokong it's highly addictive and bad.
God when i first saw this anime i was blown away, at first sight, i knew there was motion capture, it adds such a different feel to an anime, plus season 2 is in a dayy ;D
Legoshi's cartwheels were beautiful
This is a great video definitely deserve more attention and keep up the great work
Really appreciate it :)
For me, I loved and enjoyed Beastars' anime so much, it really seems that Orange animators are very dedicated with the detail, and it shows. The characters design are gorgeous, the anatomy is very beautifully done for each character, the illumination and shadows are really on point, looks real and natural and all places and atmospheres are really cool! I can't wait for season 2 to come. My favorite characters are Juno and Jack
I never thought I’d see legosi with fur again
Really enjoyed you research and detail into the collection of software to help Studio Orange animate Beastars to such a level no anime has been.
Wow so much effort into this vid snd beastars. I havent watch season 2 yet so im so hyped for it
7:48
Legoshi really said “YO.”
*Actually...*
*Haru and Louis's love child would be a jackalope*
Omg yes
The fact that season 2 has even better animation now
Louis & Haru's love child would be a Jackelope. Change my mind.
This video is so underrated. I never got bored watching it. Bro even took the time to spend hours on X to get all this information. Keep it up man
Phycologist: "Louis-Haru Hybrid isn't real, it can't hurt you"
Louis-Haru Hybrid: 6:21
I've noticed small details that show just how much work they put into it. There is a scene where white Legoshi is talking to Louis about Haru and you can see him figiting with the cloth banners on the railing. That was a keen giveaway that is it motion capture.
I'm not a furry..... BUT Beastars was one of my favorite animes well ever, I hold it in a very high pedestal
Hey that's what I used to say!
It's too late
Dont worry Just bc someone watches show with anthro animals dosent mean they a furry. For example zootopia, bugs bunny, Tom and jerry, etc. (The charicters r furrys but idk you get the point)
Just because you watch anthro animals shows doesn't mean you're a furry- If that's the case, then millions of children are furries because they watched zootopia, or other OG cartoons such as daffy duck, etc.. Which many of the fans of these cartoon might even hate on furries and wish horrible things upon them.
Things like the amount of effort that they put into the making of this anime it's just incredible to see and even it inspires some people to get into this field to achieve this level of awesomeness.
I still don't understand why some people don't like that it's 3D, I know they usually don't look great or get a bad rap, but this one is different. This animation looks so stunning, and it all comes together beautifully, I honestly think it wouldn't look as good if it was 2D.
This is so awesome. I love behind the scenes stuff. Hats off to these guys for doing an amazing job with the animation on the faces, artists with the drawings and designs. Everything was so good.
I remember that smoking ad, always freaked me out..
gosh this makes me love the anime even more!! you can see how much effort and time and care they put into this
This anime is incredible, I hate it when people say stuff like: "eww, why make an anime with furries???" Like bro there has been so much effort made into the anime and u act like this... :V
I remember seeing scenes of beastars on youtube before it came on netflix so right when it got on i started watching and finished in a day....it was sad seeing people not give it a chance
good video, very entartaining and informational
Thanks :)
I cant describe how much i love this video
Haru's and Louis child is.... Very interesting 😂
I love how the fact that the beginning is jack dancing with the drink
basically they just took legoshi's ciggies and thats why he's depressed?
exactly lmao
This was very fun and informative! The work that went into creating the Beastars anime is really fascinating and amazing. Thanks for sharing some cool facts with us! ^_^
I was drinking water when you did the Haru x Louis hybrid part. Now you owe me one dry keyboard lol
Its almost like, Why is Beastars Taking this Long to Make a Season 1 or a Season 2,
Well, its the amount of work the Beastars team have put up a good Work For This Show, its just insane, something that nobody else will know how is making Beastars Really is,
So Thank you Fursonified For This Awesome Video 💖
can i just say, it was such a delight to find your channel like this
The voice acting idea is actually genius ❤️ So not a single tone seems to be off. I am really amazed how much love, expertise and creativity went into this anime
Accually, Legoshi has been smoking in Paru's first manga
Actually just found this because honmen posted it in the media channel in Jonah's personal discord server. Thank you honmen, very cool. Anyway, this was very interesting. I had no idea they did 1 on 2, but it looks super cool and interesting when you show it slowed down. Honestly, the whole video was interesting. The fact that they had the animators do the body motion captures themselves was SUPER interesting and very smart on their part. This whole video was super informative and interesting! I now know how little I actually knew about the making of the show, but thanks to you I now know just a little more about it! #LegoshiSmokes
Thankyou for the research this is awesome.
Thanks :) I had fun researching it
Why does it look so good ?
Because that was made by people who wanted not only to make money but also be proud of the job
Im so glad that beastars was put into the hands of a studio that specializes in cgi animations. If beastars was 2D, I probably wouldn't life it as much as 3D Beastars. So glad we found this creation/story to make such a great anime
Edit: #legoshiSmokes
Thanks for the breakdown.Its not just the animation or the style of animation that is great,the story is really great too. I legit thought the animation was 2d but boy I was fooled.Thank u fr the video
Damn. 3dx max. A part that may be in this is that I think I saw some ad for some computer learning stuff that developed a sort of “motion translator” from human expression to nonhuman structures. From the general form of how they translate down to the acceleration of the blending features. Crazy stuff.
That definitely sounds crazy 😬
No wonder this anime looks smooth. This anime is really impressive yet underrated.
Whats interesting about the animators acting out the scenes is that DreamWorks animators also do this (I know for sure they acted out scenes for How To Train Your Dragon)
They mainly used this to map out scenes, get a good idea of perspectives and scale of characters. (So some where out there, there might be an almost completly acted out version of httyd)
I think it actually give a organic, smooth feel to the animation.
wow its hard to keep my interest on videos like this but u did it
gotta give it to them! beastars animation is top tier, especially for a cgi anime!
Props to you for doing so much research on this vid! thanks
noooo you cant just make model legosi do unatural cartwheels!!!!!
Fursonified: haha model go brrrrr
“The worst part is that Haru never got pregnant”
WELL THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY

So much respect for the orange studio
Lol i work with 3ds max on my school. Finally some good motivation to pay attention.
the way you said legoshi was painful but good video :)
in conclusion: Beastars is just a Amazing Anime
Now that I see it, whenever Legoshi gets angry, he's angry. And that's freaking terrifying.

The animation in Beastars is seriously so different from anything else I've seen in anime, It really is amazing. I bet more studios will begin using similar techniques in the near future.
Thanks for explaining this
FJKSLSWPPSOSLSOSLDKWKS AAAAAA
I love Beastars
The manga is great and it’s impressive how they pull the anime off
I'm gonna wait for the second season to come out before I read the manga 😁
Fursonified Um well heheh...I finished the manga and is waiting for season 2...
I think I broke myself
as soon as i saw the first scene, it looks like it was 3d animated but outlined. it was so smooth
I loved this anime soo much. I love the fact that its 3d and 2d at the same time, like how cool is that?? Also, the dub is pretty nice, and honestly i like it better than the original u-u
Land of the lustrous season 2 WHEN?
So underrated af
Season 2 is coming 15th July
dont believe me, check netflix
I say with confidence that beastars is the best CG anime ever made.
the details in the movements is sosososo good and i was so impressed when watching it
Wait what? When I was watching this guy the I thought he was famouse becouse of the video quality like I was thinking that he has 100k subs but only 1k+ subs. This guy need more subscribers
I love their animation sm it's underrated
I honestly feel like the background characters DON'T move a lot. For example, when the group goes to the city, a lot of the background characters are stiff along with a lot of screens in the school.
There is obviously going to be stiff movement, Its just a lot more than other anime's
I love watching videos about how they made the anime. It’s so interesting to me!
Legoshi does NOT smoke. That was a parody of the Three Little Pigs, and that was Big Bad Wolf. #LegoshiDoesNOTSmoke

What I think they did for the Shadows is what they did for Guilty Gear, which is tweak manually the normals of the model to have control over how the shadows are cast onto the model. There is a GDC talk on how they did it, it's easy to find...
