Dear god, The Animations sure have become even more cheap looking this season not to mention the fact that it's a billion dollar Franchise and they still cheapening out on production because of greed.

Fuck off, Anon 2. Stop talking out your ass, you literally know absolutely nothing about artistry and animation. This is the most fluid and stylish the show has been in years.

Anon 2, there is a difference between simplistic style, and half assed. It's what shows like Rick and Morty do where they draw in a much more simplistic style, but that style allows for a more fluid animation since less time has to be devoted to each panel. Unlike a show like Scooby Doo from the 70s which was half assed due to sloppy low effort animation loops and style as well as the animation itself being choppy.

Look at the clip again and notice how Misty actually struggles with getting her top off over her head while her hair actually moved with her shirt. That's effort and detail.

There is a small issue here look at Misty's top before she starts to take it off, if you look to the arm hole the tube top is missing and then when she goes to pull her suspenders off the top appears underneath and yet we see enough of her exposed skin to see how high it was and it wasn't where it showed it was later.

At least your comment was about the tube top and not that XYZ was the best animation as usual. Jesus, people have no idea how animation or business works. That said, the simplistic look is to compete in their own target demographic. If you ever looked into ratings and etc, JP isn't that big on Pokemon as you would hope. The show is not doing so well compared to its competitors. So the change is because its easier, more fluid, cheaper, and fits their target demographic. If you really want good animation at 60fps, you could try stepping outside and looking at a ladybug under a microscope. Much more majestic and beautiful than whatever Japan will ever make since reality is incredible instead of denying it.

Nice job putting a clip including Lana's sequence too, although Misty's has an evident bump in animation - I won't believe this wasn't made as fanservice for older fans.

I just noticed there is a nude filter of Misty of this take, but not of Lana's... or is it here somewhere? Did I miss it?

okay. sure, SM's style is a lot more fluid, but the anime never really had an issue with that in the first place. unlike the others, SM is very unpleasing to look at - that's why the anime styles have never before been as heavily bashed as SM's is
