It seems like since the Future Trunks arc the animators have focused on animation over art quality for a lot of episodes (not all of them mind you), which is kinda odd considering the limits placed on them by the state of production. I feel like the animation quality is in a pretty good place now (Not saying it can't improve more or shouldn't), so hopefully from this point on with any improvements the production sees they focus a bit more art quality. If we got a lot more episodes like 77-81, but with a more consistent art quality that'd be pretty great.
Anyways, I'm very interested to see how today's episode turns out, Itai has had 7 weeks and Nii's last episode was 9 weeks ago. The only action episodes Itai has ever been a supervisor were the rushed 64 and 76, so this episode might give us a better grasp on his abilities and it will be interesting to see how good of a supervisor Nii can be, especially if he started working on 82 right after 74. I hope he's good and stays on as a supervisor. We've also not seen Inaba since Itai's last episode, hope he's on today's!
If 82 turns out good then this will be the longest block of action heavy episodes Super has ever had without falling apart. You could feel that 81 almost fell apart, but I think they managed to keep it together.

Episode 80 was far above that. I hope that's our average from now on.
While I'm a positive guy, I don't think 80 will be the average quality this arc, maybe next arc! But hey, I'd
love to be wrong. My feeling is that 80's quality will be what we see for relatively big episodes, but not huge ones.
