I read the comic, and started watching The Legend of Vox Machina. Every time I try watching Invincible, I just stare blankly at how shit poor the animation is. If they kept the budget, then slashed the run time in half I think the show would have been much, much better. There would be less of a wait between seasons, the animation quality would be better, and the pacing of the show would feel much more justified. I would honestly rather wait for 16 seasons with better quality than to have this piss poor release schedule for 8 at the current rate that the show is moving at. As someone that is in college, working my way towards the animation industry, it’s really depressing to see such an incredible story be told in a style this lazy.
I agree that animation isn’t nearly the most important part of an animated show. Its not an afterthought & that’s not what op said, just not a huge deal. Like i’ve never thought that invincible’s animation was very good, but I’m still really interested in it – then on the other side is something like demon slayer, which I thought had beautiful animation but a story I couldn’t get into so I dnf’ed. Imo an animated show is the same as any other show in that the story is the most important thing about it
