I know this wasn't in the TV series but, the second Coola movie has some of the shittiest animation, well to be fair it's mostly during the early fight scenes.

OK, so it's not really fair to screen cap an image when the characters are in the middle of a fight but, I just had to post this image. :?

In-between animation, guys. OF COURSE it looks bad, it's not meant to be viewed at all. The only way you can see it is if you freeze frame the video and make an effort to look for it.

I was the one posting the in-between shot, why didn't you just say my name instead of saying "guys". It's OK to call me out on that, we can still be friends :D .

But yea, I know. I mentioned that it isn't fair to screen cap an in-between shot. I just wanted to post this image. It's so weird, it made me laugh.

Want to be even more frightened? Apparently the animation for that cartoon was outsourced. To animators who later on worked for Studio Ghibli.

A 1974 TV special called 'Twas The Night Before Christmas. It airs at least once every year during the holiday season.

Oh, and I always get a little happier when I see Popful Mail in your avatar. :D

maybe someone can make a gif. of this. In episode 61 of kai, during the begining when Piccolo is talking for some unexplained reason he pulls an Ed from Ed, Edd and Eddy.


I did the best I could to do a rough mock up but I really want the real thing.
