Looks like cheap flash animation from newgrounds

^Episode 4 had infamously "bad" animation. But it's proven time and time again Trigger made comedic scenes (so this entire episode) cheaply drawn, while the more serious and intense scenes are just downright beautiful.

Yeah if anything it looks reminiscent of maybe late 90s anime. But as Leejunne said, you don't have to be looking very hard to notice that Kill La Kill used cheaper animation for comedic effect for sight gags and such. And some of those were reminiscent of newgrounds flash animations but this particular but? Not really.

How about that, boobs being used for their actual purpose...
That purpose is arousing me.

Relegating cheaper animation to comedic scenes is a simple but ingenious way of saving money. If a joke is good, no one is going to give a shit how bad the animation is. Conversely, if a joke is poor, no one is going to care how good the animation is. I mean, good animation *helps* to deliver a joke (see: classic Looney Tunes and Disney shorts) but if Teen Girl Squad can become a hit sensation that just shows how much of a secondary concern animation really is.

^That would be a valid argument except for the fact that there's barely any good animation in the show overall.

Even non-comedic scenes/important scenes like Ryuko punching Satsuki for the first time are either stills or lazily animated. The stills don't even look that good. I've seen a lot of 90s anime with better stills. Remember the AMAZING animation of Ryuko vs Nui when the still swords were just floating and clashing? Remember how hype the elite four was when they revealed their final goku uniforms only to NOT have any cool animated scenes of those uniforms?
Remember how shitty the running animation was when Satsuki was going to decapitate Ragyo? I can go on and on.

The show 's art style is great. It's dynamic and full of personality, but it's animated with barely any effort. The show has very mediocre animation and I can count on my fingers the number of actual good animations (short transformation scenes, Satsuki slashing the fodder students in ep 18, the ship stabbing the Life Fiber,etc.)

I'm gonna get a lot of hate but that's the truth. Trigger got fucking lazy. The fans were already overhyping the show so they didn't need to actually make smooth/detailed animations that much. Overall the show just doesn't look that good.

Hell, KnK looks even better than this. Hajime no Ippo and HXH shits on it too. Anything that wasn't put together lazily looks better than Kill la Kill.

KlK doesn't have very fluid animation, but neither does 90% of all anime. Considering that Trigger is a small studio, I see KlK's animation quality as a mark that other, bigger studio's need to step it up.
Yeah, there are a ton of scenes with almost no animation to them. But you can say that about almost any anime.

And l o l, what's with the mass of downvotes on all the comments here that don't hate on KlK?
#1529960 didn't even say anything related to the issue, and something pretty standard for gelbooru comments, and he's -15?
Ya'll know people can still see "hidden" comments, right?

>Every comment bashing the animation has 20+ score
>Every comment disagreeing has -20 even though the disagreeing comments aren't even inflammatory

Looks like a mod doesn't like KLK.
