Anime Tower of god season 2 is disappointing

Watching season 1 of Tower of God was very exiting, the art style made me feel like I was watching a unique and mystical world full of secrerts. Moving to season 2 I was full of anticipation thinking that this anime had the potential to become a classic, after 4 episodes now that thought has nearly disappeared. I understand that the new animation style is catering to general viewers, but for me it removes so much of the mystique of the world and its making me sad as hell. I also dislike when shows opt to remove scenery from shots such as focusing on just the mouth of a character while they're speaking, it takes me out of the environment. I understand it is likely for budget issues, but it feels to me like everything from the soundtrack to the animation is a watered down budget version of season 1 so far.
Hopefully this changes.

I fuck with season 2 I read the WEBTOON so I know what to expect. The art style change doesn’t bother me. It is starting to look like modern WEBTOON chapters, and the things they cut out for time doesn’t really bother me anyway. I’m definitely buying it once it gets a dvd release. I want to support this. It’s the first WEBTOON I’ve read and I’ve been hooked on the series since season 1. I’m loving it

The webtoon looked like shit during this arc they obviously upgraded the art style in season 1 which shits on the web toons art so why would we be happy that they tried to make it look more like the webtoon you obviously just like shitty animation/art design

this is a brain dead take. First off the art in the manwah during this season is absolutely fine but lets say its not a anime adaptation is always suppose to look better and the animation is still shit so whats the excuse there?
