This is a great video, for people getting into Anime, specifically animation part of anime. Something to note smears is the equivalent of using motion blurs. They're like an evolved version of the stretch and squash principle. Also FINALLY, someone who can differentiate between debris and Yutapon Cubes. Also, some slight corrections, CG backgrounds aren't used just because they're easy. A lot CG background are used to realize more complex storyboards. The more ambitious the story boards, the more difficult it is to draw the backgrounds. Of course there are animators who can draw both the background and foreground animation. Character acting isn't just the characters acting, it's they're movements, expressions, the way their hair moves, the way their clothing and fabrics moves and creases. There's a lot more to character acting then most people realize. Norio school animators don't necessarily use kagenashi. What you're looking for is that Norio school animators in most cases disregards the character design consistency for more fluid animation. Going kagenashi just helps in achieving that fluidity. A lot of directors use kagenashi to emphasis a certain moment or theme.
@N0N.Ya bro and it was so good. It was also in JJK when Sukuna and Mahoraga were fighting and One Piece is heavily using it to give all out war like fighting animation but you can also call it Kanada style because both Kanada and kagenashi style are mostly the same. The difference is just the attention to details.
kagenashi style for me atleast from what I've seen in these couple of months, it's been hated so much, not because of it's style but because people think of it as an "unfinished animation" which for me is dumb.
that's the state of the mainstream anime community my friend. people with no knowledge or experience in animation making dumb ass assumptions. I remember morons on twitter crying AI on extremely well animated sequences, without bothering to do any research.
@@SakugaObscuriousi remember one particular Gear 5 Luffy scene getting absolutely annihilated on twitter by people crying AI but it just wasnt lol. It was a messy style and it just had THAT many frames it seemed like AI to some people
@@TheBlueLockIsReal11 wanna know something cool about that scene? It was animated by Shinya Ohira and Akihito Ota. Ohira is a legendary animator all the way from the early 90s. He pioneered the Ohira School of animation. The same style that Ota takes inspiration from decades later. In fact, I remember a tweet from Ota, that one of his dreams has come true as he got to work with his idol. Ohira, btw does NOT work for most TV animation projects. In fact a lot of his contribution are for films. He is the only animator who didn't need to change his animation style while working with Hayao Miyazaki. One Piece Gear 5 is his TV appearance in nearly half a decade. Dumbasses at Twitter can't even comprehend the level of reverence animators have for this man.

@@SakugaObscurious Hi can i ask you something. I hope you can help me to answer. So, I was arguing with someone. It was talking about Yoshinori Kanada how it influenced animation in Japan. But there was something that bothered me a little bit, when the person was explaining how people have been inspired by Yoshinori Kanada animation called Kanada School, but the person also referred to it as the definition of Kanada Technique. The context same like this video. I thought that using the term Kanada Technique like that might lead to misinterpretation, as if the layman would connect it to the 12 Principals of Animation. But is that really the case ? Can we call it Kanada Technique instead of Kanada Style ? Because I often hear people say it's Kanada Style.
It seems that u made some mistakes(acc to the other comments) but ignoring that, this was some very entertaining content. So yeah keep up the great work
You put into words what I like so much about Trigger anime- Kanada style! I also almost screamed when I saw Kai Ikarashi mentioned afterwards, lol. I’m totally using this technique in my senior film. Muchas gracias both to you and to Yoshinori Kanada-sensei 🙏
I mean rotoscope can be used on 3d models, there are ton of artist whom have done this in the past as it gives a good reference for how objects are in 3d space, however often it uses IRL camera stunts because its often faster to do.
I felt like correcting but I think you meant dps (drawings per sec) FPS is like the limit of drawings per sec, dps is the amount of drawings per sec 10:35
Insanely good and instructive!!! At least for the less involved in the technical side of animations audience, it really is wonderfully explained. And the visual examples are awesome. Keep up the good job! Thank you ^^
leggo you finally tried one of those "every [ ] explained in x minutes" I've been waiting for one about animation techniques because it's something I like learning casually about 🙏
thera a technique called png animation matered by studio 8bit and they are going to have guiness world record of the most slideshow animation in a season
alright, let me get some of the more obvious ones out the way. kutsuna lightning, style thing yutapon cubes, style thing kanada style, literally in the name but nowadays it's used by some animators inspired by kanada to portray the chaos in action/fight scenes in a time efficient manner. background animation is just a given, if your characters are moving throughout the space then you need to draw it with the perspective changing as a real camera would. Most times illustrated backgrounds are used is when the scene doesn't change significantly. I wouldn't describe it AS background animation, as your strawman said it's a category not a technique. itano circus isn't as much of a technique as it is a homage to the "original," which changes with every new popular mecha anime that comes out. The most recent example being gurren lagann, which was inspired by evangelion as gainax worked on both before the splinter off into studio trigger. which evangelion was inspired by gundam, so on and so forth till you get to the ACTUAL original which is correct in the video. character acting is a given kagenashi, time efficient and style thing. mostly known from naruto because of the stark difference in how fight scenes were done between naruto and naruto shippuden. I much prefer the shippuden style and it should've carried over into garbage boruto, but that's for another day. ebata walk, style thing umakoshi eye, most of the time it's connected to an obari so it's much more like a connection of scenes. with obari comes umakoshi so we can get that sweet sweet one piece run time into the next episode and recap lmao timing is just an animation thing in general, to get skilled at animation you have to be good at timing. and that's about it, from an animator to casual anime fan, you did alright.
layout is the first stage where the drawings actually move. its to mappa out the movements and the backgrounds with simple rough drawings or some artist could draw it abit more detailed. but Genga is drawing the keyframes with a more detailed drawing without actually finishing the animation yet thats where another person draws inbetween the keyframes so its looks more smoother
@@mockhtar7739 sry for the late respond but 2nd KA are the same thing as doing genga work but they're just another person doing that same thing. if the key animator cant get the work done on time they can have other animators which is the 2nd KA to finish the genga. basically if the animator who made the layout did also do the genga but if theres other animator helping with key animating the same cuts/sequence thats 2nd KA.
You forgot to mentioning long frame animation Like slime or god of high school When you can distinguish the transition of the frame but that the style love your Chanel ❤
the god of highschool actually uses motiion capture instead of rotoscope, it's like creating a 3d layout (i think) of the movements the real life actors make and then using those movements to make the animation
motion capture in gaming tracks movement of points placed on the actor which are then interpreted into a 3d model. either way it's still rotoscoping, as long as it is the movements recorded by a live actor traced over and a character design is applied to it meaning it's still rotoscoped. this way with motion capturing they can turn the camera whichever way they want and still keep the first ever take of that action despite it only being shot in one angle.
If you want an animator,that does incredible work on timing,I suggest kenichiro aoki his shots shows a massive showcase in timing like in garou vs tank top master and his other works
There are quite a bit of mistakes, missing information, and straight up disinformation. I understand your videos are trying to appeal to the masses, but please give some correct info without your own personal opinions or assumptions.
@@sinchisanHere we go. Regarding Kutsuna lighting, I wouldnt describe it as zig-zagging, but rather as a wobbly beam that sort of "glides" across the ground. I think that gets the point more clearly across. Regarding smears, you state that western cartoons use multiples, implying that they don't use smears. This is not true. Plenty of western productions use both smears and multiples. Take a look at famous guides to animation that everyone uses. Alot of them details the 2 ways of conveying movement - multiples and smears. Regarding Cubic Debris and Yutapon Cubes, I think you're distinction between them is quite pointless and trivial. Yutapon Cubes only have that timing because that timing is how Nakamuras brain works when animating. See, it's not only cubes that he uses this "hold" and "release" technique. It's visible in almost every modern cut he does, even without debris. It's just how he animates. Just like Naotoshi Shida has his super distinctive timing and art, so does Yutaka Nakamura, and every other animator. Also you state in the Cubic Debris section that animators like drawing cubes because it looks cool. That's alright, I agree. But then you state in the Yutapon cubes section that it's because it's easier...? Which one is it? It would be helpful to the viewer to clarify. Also, you define in that section what "webgen" animators are, and your definition is questionable. First of all, you say that they draw digitally, implying that older animators don't draw digitally, which is not true nowadays. Lots of animators, even older one, use a drawing tablet. Also, you say that webgen animators get hired off twitter based on their portfolio. That's not necessarily true, unless you want to refer to gaigen (foreigners hired today in this industry's dire state to find nigh anyone to finish genga or do nigen), which that is the case. When I think of webgen, I think more of someone like Shingo Yamashita, Ryochimou, or Kenichi Kutsuna, who were NOT hired off twitter, because at the time they joined the industry (around the 2000's), twitter wasn't very popular or didn't exist yet, at least not for PA's in Japan. Rather they were hired based on their animation projects they did in a program such as Flipnote studio, that they then posted to RUclips or their website. Again, it's not like that for all of them, but you get my point. Rotoscoping has been discussed in others comments so I won't comment further on this. One thing I'll say is that it's quite strange to bring up ufotables use of 3D BG's for layouts and etc, when it's not really that relevant to the subject of rotoscoping, but thats minor. Regarding Kanada style, you state that he developed this style because of a lack of time in TV productions. I'm not saying your wrong, I would just like to know the source. You also state that he "animates normally" in movies because there's more time. This is wrong, and the proof of your mistake lies in your own video. When you brought up his "style" for TV animation, you show a cut he did for the Yu Yu Hakusho MOVIE, where clearly he animates in his "style" that he uses for TV. Then when you talk about his animation for movies, you show his cut in a Ghibli movie, where it looks "normal". But that's not because he wanted it to look like that. That's rather because that scene is heavily corrected by Miyazaki, as is typical for him to do in his movies. If you want a source, I'll find it for you, and get back to you. Also, can you expand how science saru is "basically almost kinda like Kanada style"? that didn't make too much sense. I understand why you would think that, because now Kameda is working on DanDaDan, and that cut that you showed where the character is running up is presumed to be him, but other than that, I'm not sure what brought you to that conclusion. Regarding BG Animation, you state that BG animation is hard to do because you have to understand "depth and perspective". This is misleading lol, because in order to animate literally ANYTHING in anime that's not a stick figure fight, you MUST have a strong grasp on depth and perspective, not just regarding animating backgrounds. Also, you state that animating backgrounds is not common nowadays (not true), and that cg backgrounds are used much more(true), and thats because of "how the anime industry works". Here I thought you would say it's because we have access to them nowadays, unlike the 90's and early 2000's, which is what I plainly believe as fact. But then you throw a curve ball and say it's because of...shitty schedules? What? What does that have to do with anything? Even shows with good schedules use CG backgrounds, like ufotable shows (as you mentioned before), and shows with shittier schedules dont use it! Regarding Itano Circus, you forgot an important point. It's only considered an Itano Circus when the camera actively follows the subject flying around being chased by projectiles. Also they seeped into "main stream" shows long before JJK. Just look on sakugabooru, and you'll see immediately what I mean. wheh, that was a long comment, and that was barely half the video. I'll comment on the other part when I watch it.
Nozumo Abe smears are one of the cleanest shit i've ever seen, it's so damn good.
He's so good at combine 2D and 3D, it's like he was animator from Hoyoverse

Add one more, gosso technique

@@nobinhocorp301 yes but he uses them in great ways
I'm an animator and let me say that my favorite is the Kanada style or an animation style that requires less frames and a small amount of smear frames

never thought about how many techniques there were this is pretty cool
Rotoscoping was literally what Disney did in the earliest days of animated film so it shouldn’t be hated on tbh

Live action is 3D models technically
You're implying that Live Action is not 3D
I felt like correcting but I think you meant dps (drawings per sec)

Ill be out here learning anime animation styles like learning... Idk any good anime references
not a fan of how u say that 'u still need TALENT ' for the rotoscoping part. No, it's not talent, it's SKILL that comes from hardwork and dedication.
I think by talent he meant actors. Not that they are talented over skilled, but because that’s what they are referred to on film sets/productions.

I understand why you would think that, because now Kameda is working on DanDaDan, and that cut that you showed where the character is running up is presumed to be him, but other than that, I'm not sure what brought you to that conclusion.
Regarding BG Animation, you state that BG animation is hard to do because you have to understand "depth and perspective". This is misleading lol, because in order to animate literally ANYTHING in anime that's not a stick figure fight, you MUST have a strong grasp on depth and perspective, not just regarding animating backgrounds.
Also, you state that animating backgrounds is not common nowadays (not true), and that cg backgrounds are used much more(true), and thats because of "how the anime industry works". Here I thought you would say it's because we have access to them nowadays, unlike the 90's and early 2000's, which is what I plainly believe as fact. But then you throw a curve ball and say it's because of...shitty schedules? What? What does that have to do with anything? Even shows with good schedules use CG backgrounds, like ufotable shows (as you mentioned before), and shows with shittier schedules dont use it!
Regarding Itano Circus, you forgot an important point. It's only considered an Itano Circus when the camera actively follows the subject flying around being chased by projectiles. Also they seeped into "main stream" shows long before JJK. Just look on sakugabooru, and you'll see immediately what I mean.
wheh, that was a long comment, and that was barely half the video. I'll comment on the other part when I watch it.
nice
brooooooo how to find those animes now??
umm look for it

Thanks for making these, very relatable to my past college research
