That last crowd shot blew my mind. The rest of the season was eh, but that scene right there almost gaslit me into think I was watching something special.

Masayuki Kunihiro was awesome this season. I hope to see more of his stylized animation like this in the future since I always saw him as the sword fight guy even in the Fate series.

Hopefully they go crazy in the infinity castle arc since the infinity castle arc fights are so so so much better then Swordsmith fights

My immediate reaction after this episode aired was to message my friend, not to comment on the content of the episode, but just to say; "Bro Ufotable is at it again, I just witnessed the most beautifully animated sunrise I've ever seen" And as per usual, really nice and insightful analysis! Thank you!

@Mark-xw5yt 11 ай бұрын

The scenery here was definitely amazing, I did not expect it. So beautiful. This season had some dope moments of action animation that didn't live up to s1-2's best moments imo, but were still great. Honestly besides this last episode the part that stood out most to me was the infinite domain thing in the 1st episode. I've rewatched it a couple times cuz it's just so cool to me for some reason.

As an aspiring animator/director, there's so much to take away from everything you describe and I sincerely appreciate that. Keep up the fantastic work and dedication--your videos are bound to blow up with how much depth and effort is put in. Thank you and looking forward to more! :D

The work Ufotable does is more akin to video game cutscenes rather than anime. Terao’s been with Ufo for two decades this must be the culmination of his experience.

@lizardltd Жыл бұрын

I personally found this season boring and full of npc backstories which I didn't care about. The finale was cool, but I predicted everything, and the artstyle changed quite drastically in the last few minutes, which was really odd. The only reason I'll probably watch the last season is because it's the last season. The season before this one was very forgettable, and i have no hopes for the rest. Sad to say, because i loved the first 3 seasons/movies.
