Can rotoscoped 2d animation ever be good?
>>2396580
wow that is some shitty animation holy fukcccas
>>2396580
a lot of old disney stuff was rotoscoped.
>>2396580
Why would you even need to rotoscope this scene? Nothing is happening so it looks bizarre. If you had actually used less frames but more judiciously, it would have been much better looking.
Aku no Hana is pretty damn good, and it's rotoscoped. Neckbeards will say it sucks because it's not moe jackoff material, but don't listen to them.

I liked it, but you gotta admit. It's really ugly
>>2396756
>realistic looking people
>really ugly
That's when you know you've been watching too many chinese cartoons
>>2396756
I don't think it's ugly at all. Nakamura is cute as fuck.
>>2396580
>implying that was rotoscoped
>>2396762
But, anon, I liked how Jin-Roh looked
>>2396580

Oops, wrong webm
>>2396746
It was terrible.
Just read the fucking manga if you are going to bother with it at all. Although the manga went to shit too.

Equality is a beautiful thing

but that doesn't show it wasn't rotoscoped at all? that pencil test could've still been traced from footage.
no, its almnost always to boring and too obvious.
exceptions are so exceptional that there is use of rotoscoping anymore
I think Don Bluth did it quite well in Anastasia.

>tfw pseudo experts confused normal 2d with rotoscoped 2d
Everytime. Especially when people call Kou Yoshinari animation CGI shit. Delicious

yeh breh
the only good piece of rotoscoped animation is the video for Take On Me
everything else sucks in comparison
>>2396780

The problem with it is that there is too much acting in the scene. Like the actors knew it was for a cartoon so they over-acted the scenes.

I think the only reason why that passes is because it intended to use that photographic effect. When you put the photographic effect into cartoony animations it looks strange.
>>2403146
it doesn't work because they have creepy fucking faces attached to realistic movements.
>watch this scene
>get that nostalgic 80s feelings out of it from LOTR, Take on me and Fire and Ice
>enjoy it because of sentimental feelings
its guilty pleasure.

>Anastasia
>my nigga
Don Bluth's work is great.
>>2396580
Waking Life is good.
>>2403146
>it intended to use that photographic effect
That's a point but there's more to it than that.
Every frame of Take on Me is more than just a tracing like in AnH or something, special attention has been made to the feel of every line.
It also gets super good towards the end when the guy comes into the reall world but he's covered in all these sketchy smear lines.
Take On Me takes the live action footage and elevates it while lesser rotoscoped animation just copies it.
