This is nowhere near as good as the designs they used in the actual movies. His modern style looks lazy and unappealing, not mention rushed sometimes, as you can see with Vegeta in the second image.

Takahashi is not supervising the new movie.

I called it that Gogeta, Bardock, and something Broly related would be in the movie before it was even announced that it was a Broly movie.

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
I think the point you're not taking into account he obviously wasn't designing these for animators to use. He was just drawing them. Toriyama is not a character designer. If he was his approach would have almost definitely been different.Okara wrote:If I’m not mistaken, this was all done by ToriyamaJulieYBM wrote:They're not better for being 'less lazy' if they require ill-placed effort.

Has anyone pointed out we've already seen these designs animated before?

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
No because they're not the same designs, they're just stylistically similar. You could also point to the Nippon Ijinn Taosho from 2007 as another example of a similar approach.Boku no Hitto wrote:Has anyone pointed out we've already seen these designs animated before?

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
This is to say nothing of how there is always going to be an animation character designer who will create their own designs so that they can actually correct the key animation to look more like their style, too.Baggie_Saiyan wrote:I think the point you're not taking into account he obviously wasn't designing these for animators to use.

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
As Ajay said, those are not the same although I believe that, considering how long Shintani's designs have been in the work, that whoever animated that 4D Movie bit was probably already basing it from a rough version of the 20th movie designs. I say this because it seems like Toriyama has been working on the designs too, and in that clip above Krillin has white eyes, something he never had in the anime ever since the 22nd Budokai Tenkaichi.Boku no Hitto wrote:Has anyone pointed out we've already seen these designs animated before?

This is just an assumption though, as other characters keep their anime colors in the clip above. Anyways, those designs are definitely similar to what we should be getting in the movie.

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
Just watched the latest My Hero Academia episode and a new opening was shown off. I found out that Yuki Hayashi does a cool cut in it and he also animated some great stuff in Resurrection 'F'. He worked on One Piece Film: Z as well, which was directed by Tatsuya Nagamine. I would love it if Hayashi returns to animate something in this new movie under Nagamine's direction.

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
I know this has probably already been asked, but how would people feel if the softer approach that they appear to be taking with this new movie was applied to an ongoing TV series?
Personally, I feel like it would be a good change for the TV side of the franchise after the Yamamuro designs.
I think a series with these character designs, and proper planning behind it, could easily be the strongest animated entry in the franchise by a huge margin.
What do you think on the topic and why?

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
I definitely want to see Shintani be the character designer of the next series. His designs will be easier to make move but also attract other talent to work on it.

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
Shintani's designs would be extremely beneficial for a TV show, considering how simple they are. I would be extremely disappointed if Super came back as a TV show with different designs from the movie. Luckily Toriyama was involved with them so I don't think they will be dropped just after the movie, and I'm crossing my fingers that Dragon Ball will keep this look for a lot of years.

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
I personally think they will if it gets huge support by fans. I want these new designs and love to see them in Super or a new series. Plus, it would help invite freelancers to want to work on Dragon Ball.JazzMazz wrote:I know this has probably already been asked, but how would people feel if the softer approach that they appear to be taking with this new movie was applied to an ongoing TV series?

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
I'm not feeling the artstyle in that teaser, so I still want Yuya Takahashi to become the character designer. Everytime he appeared in Universe Survival arc he proved he knows how this franchise is supposed to look and during his short time as supervisor, some other animators were already taking inspiration from him. That's how good he is.JazzMazz wrote:I know this has probably already been asked, but how would people feel if the softer approach that they appear to be taking with this new movie was applied to an ongoing TV series?

What the next series needs is proper planning. Do that and things will improve.
DBS already had talented staff. Improve the schedule and not only those talented animators will deliver more quality, but also other animators may be willed to work on the show.
The show doesn't need to look like Pokemon Sun and Moon to have good animation. Even DBS already proved that.

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
Dragon Ball absolutely needed new designs considering some animators weren't even willing/didn't like to work on Super because of the designs.FortuneSSJ wrote:I'm not feeling the artstyle in that teaser, so I still want Yuya Takahashi to become the character designer.

While Takahashi's art is indeed gorgeous, his style isn't how the franchise is supposed to look. He was just using the very good and popular designs from Buu arc and the DBZ movies from the 8th onwards.
To me, Shintani's designs at the moment look much more like what the franchise is supposed to look, considering he clearly follows Akira Toriyama's style, who also helped with the movies designs.

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
With the current design, it limits what most animators can do plus Yamamuro was very controlling. Thats why many talented animators avoid working on Dragon ball.FortuneSSJ wrote:I'm not feeling the artstyle in that teaser, so I still want Yuya Takahashi to become the character designer.

Takahashi is good but his work isn’t what DB is supposed to look like. Its supposed to look like how Toriyama invisions it and the newest style resembles his manga style way more while enabling more freedom for animators.
