DBZ Episode 33 - Most awkwardly drawn Vegeta

Post by coola » Mon Sep 21, 2015 5:31 pm

i thought DBZ Episode 51 was one, where Vegeta looked funniest/worst, but this episode, in my opinion, take cake, in almost whole episode, Vegeta in very strange way

God, it's so clear Toei doesn't care anymore. I wonder if this series will even make it to the final arc.

Well, they are not that bad. Especially the first one, I don't see anything wrong with it. Try some of the Cell or Boo arc episodes, he looked just hideous in some of them, especially the ones drawn by Last House.

I think the one where Vegeta went to the Namekian village and him having a awkwardly drawn body and face is probably the worst

The first and last shot look fine, since I'm pretty sure they're the work of Kan'no.

Even the middle two are just typical Ebisawa work. It's not like his Lupin Vegeta which was extraordinarily bad.

Still not as bad as Goku and Beerus in Super episode 5 though :lol:

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

Lupin Vegeta is still the reigning champ as far as I'm concerned.

I always liked how the armors would be drawn in wildly different shapes. Those shoulder pads always look interesting when they're off-model.

Yeah. Studio Live in particular just seemed to have lots of trouble with both Vegeta and Saiyan armor. They always made Vegeta's forehead look like it was about five feet tall all on its own. And the shoulder pads were just so... pointy. You could cut someone with those!

Of course, by the Cell arc, Last House had gotten so bad that it had the opposite problem. Their armor looked like it was made out of Play-Doh. At least by that point, Studio Live didn't have to worry about shoulder pads anymore.
Do you follow the most comprehensive and entertaining Dragon Ball analysis series on YouTube? If you do, you're smart and awesome and fairly attractive. If not, see what all the fuss is about without even having to leave Kanzenshuu:

That and by the time the Cell arc has rolled around Kan'no Toshiyuki was doing more key animation and his cuts were no longer being corrected by Ebisawa Yukio, who wasn't as good an animator as him. Kan'no even managed to work on episodes headlined by supervisors other than Ebisawa, so I'm wondering if he didn't take a lot of extra inspiration from working under them?

Z animation looked sometimes bad but the movement colors, music and sound effects compensate for it.
In Super everything is bad not only the animation.

Because we all know that no one can criticize Z animation without immediately following it by going on about how Super is worse, as if that validates it.
