Yeah, like an anime (kinda like the above replies were saying) or maybe even a VR game! I for one would be totally hyped if they made Starfox VR, it'd be so cool!!
After watching the Mario movie I can say this anime short is so underrated. Solid story and fun characters. Hope they follow this base if a Star Fox film ever gets produced.
Nintendo hates games with stories. Why else would we get the same game 4 times and no progress in the stories / gameplay ? This is why I'm gonna future proof this video using tools to restore the animation to 90 fps . An create uhd texture packs for the gamecube games .
@@Bando-fx4mf No. What I mean is that... I don't want Star Fox to be forgotten. It's been seven years since we have Star Fox Zero and since then... nothing! It's not becuase it was a bad game that Star Fox is dead, or even less its community! Look at F-Zero (well, that aged well.)! Kid Icarus! Mother! It’s been four years since we’ve last seen Fox and his homies… I want to see my favorite Nintendo character again! I want my parents to see them, not just in Smash!
It’s such a shame that Star Fox is slowly decreasing in popularity and sales are declining with every new game release. I think Nintendo should really consider an animated series, such as this video, to bring popularity back to Star Fox. This has so much potential for a great story line, action scenes, comedy, battle strategies etc. for it to become successful. Nintendo needs to realize Star Fox still has so much potential and I would hate to see the franchise come to an end.
I know... Everybody wants to play games where the mission is to do chores for other people. Video games began to fall apart with xbox 360 and ps2. Nintendo is the only system making games that aren't generic garbage.
Eh, you can blame Nintendo themselves for Star Fox's decline in popularity. They either a) rehash the same story with each game or b) use the series to experiment with horrible gimmicks, i.e. Wii U Gamepad motion controls. Ubisoft has done Star Fox a far greater justice with Starlink than Nintendo has in a long time and the sales between consoles show there's still interest in the franchise.
I think this is an experiment because animation studios like Production I.G. try out unique diffy things. Adult Swim ,for example, does the same thing, too. AS uses Toonami as an April fools joke in 2012 to experiment with their veiwers and Toonami did came back a month later. So, it might be a possibility for Nintendo to contact Pro IG. BTW, [adult swim] contacted Pro IG much often because [as] is in collaboration with them to work on 2 sequel seasons of FLCL next year since that Pro IG bought FLCL License from Gainax and [as] also did IGPX with the studio.
+oz pardo let's not be too greedy. i mean, with alot of effort like this, i can see a short 12 episode like anime out of this. i mean, look at One Punch Man for example. maybe if it gets good, we'll get more episodes. there is plenty of stuff from the games to be put into a series, but let's Nintendo dip the toes first instead of jumping all the way in.
Absolutely. I hope they realized that and are working on something. Miyamoto was quoted somewhere a few months after Star Fox Zero's release in saying something like they'd never do the two screens again, due to so many people hating it (it wasn't THAT bad, but I guess people are really picky). This anime short seemed to get a decent amount of people excited, but the game itself ruined that excitement. I think more people now want an anime more than a new Star Fox game. But it'd be cool if they release both at the same time, and really take the new game to strong heights. I definitely don't want to see Star Fox die off and keep getting bad reviews.
cel shaded 3d + very low fps makes this perfectly look like an anime. I like this style. I don't usually like 3d anime style, but this one is just too good.
Years later and this is still amazing. I’ve never played Star Fox, but I’ve seen multiple play throughs on RUclips and I love the story and lore in this whole game series. Wish they did more on the lore of Corneria and the Lylat system.
I genuinely love this animation! It adds much more character and personality to these characters that I rarely ever see! Even though I like StarFox Zero, this game barely expanded anything on these characters! What a missed opportunity, but at least this animation exists! Plus, StarFox Assault had a great story and character development! I hope Nintendo returns to that sort of format again! I can imagine a new StarFox game that subverts expectations similar to what Kid Icarus Uprising did, by making it seem the main villain from before has come back again, along with several callbacks to that original game, just to surprise you later in with a much more interesting and dangerous threat!
Star fox is definitely a series that's stuck in time. An animated series like this would probably do the franchise a lot of good! There's so many adventures and ideas they could work with here. The games though.. need to change. The 64 formula was fine when it came out but there's only so many times you can milk something before people are no longer interested. With star fox assault at least there was a different enemy to take out! We need another game like that
I think the series is pretty torn with its fanbase, and some will absolutely detest this idea. Some want it pure, N64 again, or nothing. Yet I agree with your idea to go more in the Assault way. You just can't make a big budget franchise that is sold at $50-$70 on rail shooter gameplay alone, and Nintendo doesn't seem to ackowledge a middle ground between that and mobile junk. I mean, what is that to sell in a bigger sense!? Star Fox is a huge brand, but its consistently suffered at the same time for a good reason, with no sense of a contemporary format, willing to sell SFZ at a higher price alongisde the sales of Doom '16 and Witcher 3. It needs to wake up a bit, and its not about dumbing it down or mainstreaming it, but just making it work with common sense of value and gaming. Its source of inspiration, charm, comics, and gameplay need to be fused together more, and the result is going to be bigger than a mere rail shooter. Its not like Mario, where even he after all that name recognition can barely scrap together a loved current 2D entry without some backlash. (The last "New" SMB seems to be widely meh'd at). Star Fox needs a full take off before they can get away with hiked up prices for such retro gameplay the indies have it beat at, but with the standards it set for rail shooters, it does indeed deserve better. It really does need something more like Assault and a television show byproduct. Almost the sonic method really, just less crazy game spins with every single entry. Stick to the Assault formula, and actually work with it to polish what didn't work while the outside media helps glue people to the names, plots, and characters. The games can't keep throwing themselves away though, they need to keep in mind what makes good sequels even run. The first isn't always perfect, but before it flips the table, or dumps everything good away, and inserts a gimmick, they instead hone in on the pros and cons. Star Fox never once had that chance outside of a SNES-to-N64 entry, and by this point that's not going to be enough. They need to actually figure out what they're going to do, and work with it, with markets and advertising in harmony with it. Zero was a flopped gimmick, Adventures came off a terrible misplaced title of direction that just flat out wasn't a Star Fox game, and 64/3Ds/SNES are all way too rigid and stagnate to sell as a current full priced game if it wants the traction and recognition like bigger titles that get away with being stuck in the past. They need to go back to Assault, fuse it with productions like this, and work it out. If they hit the right amount of arcady flight levels, I'm sure even the purists will cave and shut up about the land segments not being SF-enough for them while the rest of the game fleshes it out to be worth investing time and money into.
Star Fox can be multiple types of games. Release a soft sequel to 64 , and make another "star fox adventures" type game where you're on foot , with that grounded sense playing as fox and falco at least. Smash bros shows they can be fun to play with out of the cockpit My idea for a sequel to 64: fox falco slippy and a new character (peppy retires or becomes the general or something) back in the lylat system for part of the game and then travel to a different star system to give it a fresh feel
If I were to guess at what happened, beyond the knee jerk "Japan wanted to get rid of Krystal" explanation (which...maybe, but if that was the goal...why reference Sauria in the prelude short when any other hospitable planet would do?), I have an alternate explanation: Star Fox Adventures, beyond introducing Krystal, substantially changed the implied tone/feel/writing influence of Star Fox. In Star Fox/Star Fox 2/Star Fox 64/Star Fox Zero, the essential premise is "What if the X-Wing parts of Star Wars were all that mattered and starred furries?". Adventures...made it Star Trek TOS with Furries. Right on down to including TOS' staple "Everyone Except One Person is Laughing" ending. And, as much as Star Trek TOS is actually REALLY COOL, especially compared to other TV genre fare at the time (Trek's not as cool as Sean Connery Bond movies, but compared to, say, Lost in Space or Adam West Batman? BADASS), game developers were quickly, and increasingly, getting "Not TREK LEVEL nerdy." So Zero as a reboot, on a writing level, was a desperately flailing attempt to affirm "we're not Trek, we're totally not Trek, it's not that dorky to make something for this franchise" and...we're now in the middle of the longest gap between fresh Star Fox releases (7 years and counting) EVER. Yes, Zero's mechanical issues and the Wii U, at that point, being an obvious blood in the water console also hurt it massively, but...yeah, it also deserved to fail for that reason as well.
The 4 planet names on the front of Slippy’s magazine are the names of stages from Kirby Super Star’s Milky Way Wishes mode: Floria, the obligatory grass stage; Aqualiss(aka Aquarius), the obligatory water stage(and where you find Sword Kirby!); Mecheye/Mekkai, the factory stage; Halfmoon, the windy stage.
Can't believe this was 7 years ago. Here I am again, thankful for this love letter to my younger days on the Nintendo 64 ❤ Thanks for the great memories, Nintendo ❤
Right, Nintendo... Partner with Mattel and create not just a 26 episode series with this animation studio, but the full works in terms of merchandise. I'm talking lunch boxes, action figures, sticker albums, everything. Think 80's cartoons made to sell the toys type of deal, only with higher quality animation. I'm not a Nintendo fan, but StarFox is your one IP I would buy all of the crap for and get the DVD/Blu Ray of the series in a heartbeat. Also, a web series with the Star Fox puppets would be nice.
I love this! I wish Nintendo did more of these animations for their game worlds. Including Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, Metroid, F-Zero, Kid Icarus, etc. Make cartoons, anime, comic books, graphic novels, music albums, and more for your franchises. Open doors for INFINITE possibilities, Big N. At least consider other venues besides video games every now and then.
3 years late to this, but there was an F-Zero anime. Only the first 15 or so episodes are in English, but the full series is on RUclips with subtitles.
if you want Nintendo to make more Anime like this, get to twitter and make #NintendoMoreAnime trend! spread this hashtag like a wildfire don't stop until Nintendo says yes!
Who else is revisiting in 2021? :D Nintendo... Please, give us some more shorts and PLEASE give us a Starfox that doesn't bank solely on gimmicks! Just give us a traditional Starfox experience complete with on-rails shooting, dogfight sequences, alternate paths and secrets and big bosses scattered here and there!
I think Star Fox 3 is exactly what the series needs. It would build off the originals in terms of gameplay, characters, and story, and we'd get a new villain. Please no more Andross.
Thanks for helping me to bring back the 10 year old dead Star Fox series to the roots, i just cried like a baby watching this anime short, i believe my wish is become true... thanks guys! i will heading back to Corneria, and Nintendo... don't forget us in years, please make a new direct sequel to Star Fox Zero in the future on the NX and Miyamoto take a vacation you earned my heart please enjoy you life Thanks everyone! and enjoy the Star Fox Zero!
@@jeremiahhester6408I do. I’m sad that this underrated diamond isn’t known much. What if we get some references to it in a Star Fox Movie or TV series?
every time i revisit this, it makes me want a new star fox game even more... and it also makes me realize how unlikely it sounds, especially if it's not another version of 64
One thing I love about Zero how it kinda portrays Pepper as a shady character especially noted how he's hiding so much and Andross's lines during the final battle Gimme a full series Nintedo!
1. Wake up 2. Cry 3. Watch the newest Nintendo Direct 4. A new Star Fox game is announced during the Direct Actually, it was a bit more like 3. 4. 1. 2.
6:44 fox and falco used their super smash bros second jump to get in their cock pits :D lol then the ones not in smash bros mess up their landing ^_^ lol
Lorraine Carrillo I read that Nintendo will start making animated movies in the near future also the announcement of the Universal Studios parks in Fl, CA and Tokyo!
I would love to see a Starfox movie for real. This small short is actually really good. Maybe a plot that covers what happened to James Mccloud after he was taken down? The games implied that he died. But- What if that's what they want you to think?
Slippy Toad: Hey, what’s that? Peppy Hare: It’s a good luck charm, made out of General Pepper’s fur, as a symbol of our friendship. Fox McCloud: Out of his fur? Falco Lombardi: Nothing weird there. Peppy Hare: WATCH IT!! 😂😂😂
Dear Nintendo. I'm a 42 year old man and this reminds me of being a kid watching Saturday morning cartoons. YOUR FANS NEED MORE OF THESE ANIME SHORTS on the channel as a series on RUclips for ALL THE OTHER IP'S TOO PLEASE 🎉👌🏼👏🏼👍🏼😊⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Thank you
It's hard to believe this was animated by the same guys who animated Beastars. ...Actually, looking at it, it's really not that hard to believe, but it's still cool to know.

Star Fox can be multiple types of games. Release a soft sequel to 64 , and make another "star fox adventures" type game where you're on foot , with that grounded sense playing as fox and falco at least. Smash bros shows they can be fun to play with out of the cockpit
My idea for a sequel to 64: fox falco slippy and a new character (peppy retires or becomes the general or something) back in the lylat system for part of the game and then travel to a different star system to give it a fresh feel
I always thought that the Arwing from Star Fox 64 is more iconic.
If I were to guess at what happened, beyond the knee jerk "Japan wanted to get rid of Krystal" explanation (which...maybe, but if that was the goal...why reference Sauria in the prelude short when any other hospitable planet would do?), I have an alternate explanation:
Star Fox Adventures, beyond introducing Krystal, substantially changed the implied tone/feel/writing influence of Star Fox. In Star Fox/Star Fox 2/Star Fox 64/Star Fox Zero, the essential premise is "What if the X-Wing parts of Star Wars were all that mattered and starred furries?". Adventures...made it Star Trek TOS with Furries. Right on down to including TOS' staple "Everyone Except One Person is Laughing" ending. And, as much as Star Trek TOS is actually REALLY COOL, especially compared to other TV genre fare at the time (Trek's not as cool as Sean Connery Bond movies, but compared to, say, Lost in Space or Adam West Batman? BADASS), game developers were quickly, and increasingly, getting "Not TREK LEVEL nerdy." So Zero as a reboot, on a writing level, was a desperately flailing attempt to affirm "we're not Trek, we're totally not Trek, it's not that dorky to make something for this franchise" and...we're now in the middle of the longest gap between fresh Star Fox releases (7 years and counting) EVER. Yes, Zero's mechanical issues and the Wii U, at that point, being an obvious blood in the water console also hurt it massively, but...yeah, it also deserved to fail for that reason as well.
Who else wants there to be an anime series of this?
Broke: Anime
Woke: CG Pixar Film
omg i was about to comment there should be an anime series and I saw this- a Star Fox anime would be truly amazing!
Look up "A fox in space", someone is animating a whole show by himself!
I'd want a game with this cel-like art style. Actual Star Fox Zero reminds me too much of Sonic Forces
ME ME ME ME ME
Ok, Falco ragequitting at 2:26 is the best thing I’ve ever seen.
What a sore loser
Falco is so *salty*
Controller: *Bounces and hits in face*
Kinda like me when I lose when playing Star Fox 64 3D.
2:24
Star Fox is one of the all time greats, if you make a sequel, the audience will support you
"Out of his fur?"
"Nothing weird there."
PKMN Trainer Mark if only fox and Falco knew about the fanfics about them lol
WATCH IT!!!
@A Henderson The bunny got neudered
WATCH IT!!!!!
The 4 planet names on the front of Slippy’s magazine are the names of stages from Kirby Super Star’s Milky Way Wishes mode: Floria, the obligatory grass stage; Aqualiss(aka Aquarius), the obligatory water stage(and where you find Sword Kirby!); Mecheye/Mekkai, the factory stage; Halfmoon, the windy stage.
Nintendo please give us a StarFox cartoon or anime. We'd all appreciate it so much :)
Michal Pupek exactly. I would watch this XD
Michal Pupek They're thinking of making a Nintendo tv series and Nintendo movies.
A Fox In Space
Michal Pupek That would be so awesome!!!
Patrick Star I'm not a furry stfu you're a furry because of your profile pic of an animal
God that was awesome. Now we just need a TV series, and then do Zelda, Metroid, Fire Emblem, etc etc

Thank you,

PS. Please don't shoehorn in motion controls the next time around.
Ooo
X2 but the original control please :'3 xd
No motion controls or some dumb “reticule” system on on a separate screen
It has been 8 years...... please bring back Star Fox!!
Nintendo should make a Star Fox movie.
Xavier Nintendo 845 They're thinking of making Nintendo movies and a Nintendo tv series on Netflix
Xavier Nintendo GamerBoy 2000 or even a cartoon. This could be the first episode.

Xavier Nintendo GamerBoy 2000 k good
Wonderful, wonderful. I got warm fuzzies.
Not being rude, but I think this is why Nintendo almost shut down your project, can't wait for it btw
Your animations are wonderful too, I've gotta say!
Looking forward to your awesome animation too!
It would be great if Nintendo remakes your Wolf design and put it there
Great to hear you liked this, I enjoy animation quite a lot.
6:37 well little bit of miss opportunity you could make slippy grab the hat with his tounge instead.
Can't believe this was 7 years ago. Here I am again, thankful for this love letter to my younger days on the Nintendo 64 ❤
Thanks for the great memories, Nintendo ❤
Right, Nintendo... Partner with Mattel and create not just a 26 episode series with this animation studio, but the full works in terms of merchandise. I'm talking lunch boxes, action figures, sticker albums, everything. Think 80's cartoons made to sell the toys type of deal, only with higher quality animation. I'm not a Nintendo fan, but StarFox is your one IP I would buy all of the crap for and get the DVD/Blu Ray of the series in a heartbeat. Also, a web series with the Star Fox puppets would be nice.
AGREED
Yee!
+TigerTails TV Damn.
+TigerTails TV By Tzeench I hope they do this. If only so I could get a set of Arwings for my desk at work ^.^
EVERYTHING THIS GUY SAID
Wow, they actually made Slippy likeable.
I am pleasantly surprised.
HE'S SO CUTE-
Star fox voice actor made a very good job in this
Yeah, it's the same guys from 64
@@starwindamada5313 I believe the VAs in this short are actually different from the ones in any of the games
Joe Zieja was the voice of Fox in this short. He's also well-known as the voice of Claude from Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
I love this! I wish Nintendo did more of these animations for their game worlds. Including Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, Metroid, F-Zero, Kid Icarus, etc. Make cartoons, anime, comic books, graphic novels, music albums, and more for your franchises. Open doors for INFINITE possibilities, Big N. At least consider other venues besides video games every now and then.
3 years late to this, but there was an F-Zero anime. Only the first 15 or so episodes are in English, but the full series is on RUclips with subtitles.
F-Zero GP Legend.
Well better yet. We're getting a potential... Cinematic Universe.😏
Nintendo announced that it would produce movies with Illumination and Universal 🙌🙌 Wish came true.. still bit more to go.
This game's winner is! Fox.

I AGREE!
Codrile Pin Agree
Yeah, I want this to be an actual series so bad!
Codrile Pin
That would be the only anime I would respect, everything else is trash.
DEFINITELY!!! That was just AWESOME!
8:47 the cutest moment ever. I wanna hug those soldier doggo's🥰🥰🥰
2:23 WOW!!! That was a sweet remake!!! Also did they say “Sauria”?!
3:45 …Well you do you Peppy
7:35 YEEEEEES!!! Thanks for that CLASSIC SCENE!!!
Yep, that's the only nod to the pre-existing continuity we're getting.
10:00 you forgot "DO A BARREL ROLL!"
Falco is "One of the best pilot I've ever met!"
*Crashes Arwing immediately*
Then wins on the next attempt.
if you want Nintendo to make more Anime like this, get to twitter and make #NintendoMoreAnime trend! spread this hashtag like a wildfire don't stop until Nintendo says yes!
AGREEEEE!!!!
YES

We need a new Star Fox game ASAP
At least retool Zero and make it available on the Switch!!
A StarFox movie too in the future.
Hope nintendo realize the true potential of Star Fox someday. The universe is so cool and the characters so lovable.
If you guys notice. They've kept the script from the N64 at 7:28
Little details!
I love this, it gives every character more purpose and personality than it did in ANY Star Fox game. I NEED more.
10:00
"DO A BARREL ROLL"
That's classic
Who else is revisiting in 2021? :D
Nintendo... Please, give us some more shorts and PLEASE give us a Starfox that doesn't bank solely on gimmicks! Just give us a traditional Starfox experience complete with on-rails shooting, dogfight sequences, alternate paths and secrets and big bosses scattered here and there!
nintendo is always wanting to try something new, and the starfox franchise game mechanics wise is pretty experimental
If they can be successful with Metroid Dread, they can more than likely replicate it with StarFox
I think Star Fox 3 is exactly what the series needs. It would build off the originals in terms of gameplay, characters, and story, and we'd get a new villain. Please no more Andross.
But Star Fox Zero was a traditional experience. It didn't bank solely on gimmicks.
On foot missions like Assault were not a bad idea
Thanks for helping me to bring back the 10 year old dead Star Fox series to the roots, i just cried like a baby watching this anime short, i believe my wish is become true... thanks guys! i will heading back to Corneria, and Nintendo... don't forget us in years, please make a new direct sequel to Star Fox Zero in the future on the NX and Miyamoto take a vacation you earned my heart please enjoy you life Thanks everyone! and enjoy the Star Fox Zero!
Good bye everyone! and press Z or R Twice!
Bye bye people! and hold the A button to charge up shots!
Adios people!
I love how Falco was PLAYING Star Fox.
A guy from Star Fox plays Star Fox…

Really good voice acting and animation. I'm seriously impressed!
Found this for a dollar, complete with the bonus game. I don't even had a Wii U. I had to have it because I like StarFox.
Star fox for the switch!! Add more features please!! Make this Star Fox game for the Switch I love star Fox!

Do y'all remember Starlink: Battle for Atlas?
@@jeremiahhester6408I do. I’m sad that this underrated diamond isn’t known much. What if we get some references to it in a Star Fox Movie or TV series?
@@Superemie401 That'll be awesome.
godamn it... now I'm gonna have to start playing video games again
CR
I love this animated short so much
There's so much potential in the theatrics of Star Fox!
every time i revisit this, it makes me want a new star fox game even more... and it also makes me realize how unlikely it sounds, especially if it's not another version of 64
One thing I love about Zero how it kinda portrays Pepper as a shady character especially noted how he's hiding so much and Andross's lines during the final battle
Gimme a full series Nintedo!
This really needs to be made into a full anime series! :)
Agreed!
Yeah!
i was about to say that
Yup
Nikki Roessler Yeah
I love StarFox so much!
So do I
God I would really love a cartoon of Star fox because that would be really awesome.
RIP Rick May, the voice of Peppy Hare
10:01 The moment you all were waiting for.
1. Wake up
2. Cry
3. Watch the newest Nintendo Direct
4. A new Star Fox game is announced during the Direct
Actually, it was a bit more like 3. 4. 1. 2.
Never played the game but this Short was a very good.
Once you get used to the controls, I think you're in for a blast.
Actually, this should be a TV series.
Whatever Nintendo’s plans with that series are…
I hope my children would love that series as much as I do today!
6:44 fox and falco used their super smash bros second jump to get in their cock pits :D lol then the ones not in smash bros mess up their landing ^_^ lol
So, slippy has frog jump
OH YOU'RE RIGHT THEY BOTH DONE THEY'RE ANIMATION
r X
😹
This just proves how well Star Fox could work as an animated show.
I have high hopes for the upcoming Nintendo movies!
me too!
Juan Cabeza
WAIT WHAT!?
Lorraine Carrillo
I read that Nintendo will start making animated movies in the near future also the announcement of the Universal Studios parks in Fl, CA and Tokyo!
I would love to see a Starfox movie for real.
This small short is actually really good.
Maybe a plot that covers what happened to James Mccloud after he was taken down?
The games implied that he died. But- What if that's what they want you to think?
ScootsNB True, Nintendo already made a full anime series of F-zero,so why not with Star Fox?
The nostalgia of this just brought so many memories up, Im balling... But this is amazing, and I really want more.
Slippy Toad: Hey, what’s that?
Peppy Hare: It’s a good luck charm, made out of General Pepper’s fur, as a symbol of our friendship.
Fox McCloud: Out of his fur?
Falco Lombardi: Nothing weird there.
Peppy Hare: WATCH IT!!
😂😂😂
You know what else is a good luck charm??? Rabbit foot! Peppy is offended
Looks like he keeps his balls on his belt! Crazy
Xtreme Gamer HDX 😆😆
Matthew Spark So that means General Pepper is neutered.

Dear Nintendo. I'm a 42 year old man and this reminds me of being a kid watching Saturday morning cartoons. YOUR FANS NEED MORE OF THESE ANIME SHORTS on the channel as a series on RUclips for ALL THE OTHER IP'S TOO PLEASE 🎉👌🏼👏🏼👍🏼😊⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Thank you
I love how the 2 dog soldiers cram Pepper into the cleaning bot.
Nintendo we all know you have the money to make this this a show and a good one at that. Come on make it happen for all the starfox fans out here.
Do more of this Nintendo...please...
it's a prequel to the game lol
FOR the LOVE of GOD, NINTENDO. PLEASE MAKE a STAR FOX 64 SEQUEL!!
It's hard to believe this was animated by the same guys who animated Beastars.
...Actually, looking at it, it's really not that hard to believe, but it's still cool to know.
Yeah it's got some choppy cgi in it.
@@Cacowninja I believe the intent was to emulate 2D animation.
Studio Orange animated this? Some people said it was studio WIT
@@xviinaichi3793 Both did. This is a collaboration between Orange (they did the CGI) and WIT (they did the 2D, I suppose).
