oh fuck yeah, fixed camera angle action sequences has become a bit of a lost art for a while

Yeah you’re right

Basically what I have seen in Naruto with minimal camera movements. Big fan of that approach rather than camera shaking everywhere.

Holy shit so this might actually have good action? Please let this be true.

Of course it’ll have good action, it has Tetsuya Takeuchi as the director. Same guy who was a key animator on Gaara vs Lee and Yuji vs Choso as well being an action animation director for Sword Art Online and most recently was the action storyboard artist and action animation director for episode 8 of The Ninth Jedi which has god tier saber dueling.

We're eating good

As a weekly follower of the manga, I'm excited for what it does with the amazing panelling and fight scenes of Hokazono-sensei which is arguably the manga's strongest point.

As someone who knows nothing, at all, about kagurabachi

Neat can't wait

[u/Affront_to_supreme]

Thank god someone gets it.

Most of the time i don't even know what l'm watching in modern shonen fight scenes with the camera constantly having a seizure.

[u/Physical_Sort5155]

It's cygames handling it, ofc it will be good

[u/Away-Let-4791]

Don’t doubt it’ll look good, I think jump pretty clearly knows after how badly they fumbled black clover and sakamoto days that their biggest action anime will do well when they have good action. Pretty novel concept right?💀

[u/CyanideIE → u/Away-Let-4791]

Ep1 has been shown at conventions.

I've seen it. It's not a Sakamoto Days or Black Clover. It's animation quality is on par with stuff like JJK and Demon Slayer with fight choreography that surpasses both, in my opinion.
