Another crappy animation, don't you say? Every week (except last week), we get comments like:

"Oooh the fillers were better than the canon. They suck."
"The animation is shit. Why do we get derpy characters."
"They ruining the series. The manga's better."


I get you. I feel you. I understand you. I, too, didn't like some of the animation. I would be faking if I tell you that you are arseholes and I'm the good guy for not complaining. Well, I'm here maybe because I hope you understand the way I cope with these crappy episodes.

I am a student of Animation from an expensive arts school and yes, I study and focus on making these kind of stuff. I'm telling you, it's hella tiring, has very long processes, and really needs teamwork, especially for productions like this. Maybe I'd get comments like, "theirs is a big company", "they are pros." But I'll correct you on this. They air episodes in a weekly basis and they don't get paid by the viewers. They spend time to make the manga alive by of course, putting motion on it, sounds, dialogues and colors. Blah blah blah they do story boarding, pre production, sound effects, production, rendering, post production, etc etc, given that, again, they have a week in between.

Won't give you more lectures... I'm asking for a little consideration cause what you're complain at is free stuff, your screenshots of derpy faces are "in-betweens" (where it is a drawing between two main drawings at a fast rate, so if played at 24fps, won't get noticed), and for the sake of our love for the series, please respect the animators as well. I know what they are going through. Just imagine having sleepless nights, limited money, then you get negative feedbacks? That's rough, man. Just appreciate what we have, give constructive feedbacks, and continue supporting the series without pulling each other down. Thanks!

I've read the comments from the discussion on today's episode. Guess there are less bad comments than the previous ones. I even read very constructive feedback. Thank you very much, NB people! This means a lot to artists.

This weeks episdoe was good, but he is talking about the people who constantly complain about the anime not having great animation. Those people need to stop complaining and be lucky that we get free anime

You're talking to 12 year old children and idiots. I wouldn't expect them to understand the meaning of hard work anytime soon. Being grateful and appreciative is a foreign concept to them.

But I get what you're saying, I pay for the anime for that very reason and I hope that the money I pay monthly gets to the animators somehow. You are a very considerate and good person.

Thank you for understanding. Yeah, I get what you are saying. All these technical stuff...I wouldn't know it if I wasn't an arts student. Just want to let you guys loosen up a bit on them. I LOL'ed at the "12 year old children and idiots"

Animation was sh*t. Clearly the only thing most of you watch is Naruto.

Go watch some new anime and you will see exactly why people complain about the animation in Naruto... it is PURE SH*T and no Naruto fanboy will change my mind.

"Clearly the only thing most of you watch is Naruto" hahaha how about no. Come on, man, shit is shit, but this isn't the way to handle this. It's their efforts that I'm emphasizing here. Can't we just reconsider, appreciate, and enjoy what are presented? As a young adult, I have watched many animation series, some are damn good, some are don't. Not speaking as a Naruto fanboy, but as an artist who might understand what they would feel if given these negative feedbacks. Cheers to those with good animation, maybe they have lots of money hahaha

Looks like I have to quote myself from the episode discussion thread.

"That is a bad excuse. Every TV show is free and you don't see them doing the bare minimum and saying "Oh well it's free so be happy." Naruto has been one of the top anime for a long time there is no way that they are low on money. And we, the fans, are the ones who made it popular in the first place if it wasn't for us the manga could have ended a long time ago. The least they could do is give us consistently decent animation."

Shows like Attack on Titan and Hunter x Hunter 2011 have amazing and consistent animation and Naruto is definitely more popular than those. They have the ability to do it but they know that people will watch it no matter what, so they take advantage of that.

I bet you are comparing the animation of a 30-60 episode anime to a longrunning series. :|

Can you propose a solution to this? We don't know what are happening inside those studios, and they do not know what are happening here. Maybe you have a solution to this problem so that we get these rants stop. :) I got your point, and yes, you have a point. It's just that we can't jump into conclusions on what could be happening inside their workstations. I wish we get a solution for this. Maybe they can air it to different countries just like every famous TV show does to earn. Thank you for your opinion.
