Description
Sometimes CGI helps anime scale big battles, but when it doesn’t blend well with 2D animation, fans notice right away.
Ex-Arm by Visual Flight became infamous for its fully 3D approach, with stiff motion-capture animation, low-detail models, and facial rigs that barely move, creating an uncanny and robotic look.
In Berserk, produced by GEMBA and Millepensee, heavy CGI replaced the detailed art of the manga. The result was criticized for stiff movement, flat lighting, and awkward character models that made dramatic scenes feel less impactful.
Overlord Season 3 by Madhouse also drew attention for large CGI armies during battles like the Katze Plains massacre, where the 3D soldiers and monsters stood out sharply against the 2D characters.
And in Attack on Titan Season 4 Part 1, produced by MAPPA, Titans were often animated with CGI models to handle complex action scenes. While technically efficient, the change from earlier hand-drawn Titans sparked debate among viewers about how well the CGI blended with the series’ original style.
Different studios, different reasons, but these shows are often brought up whenever fans talk about CGI that didn’t quite land.
