If you're an AOT fan, you should be aware that this was animated by a freelance artist namely, Arifumi Imai. A freelancer means he has no affiliation towards any studio. He's also the person in charge of key animating all the ODM gear action scenes on season 1, Collosal Titan kicking the walls from season 1, Armored titan destroying Wall Maria from Season 1, all Female Titan scenes,Jaw Titan (Ymir) transformation, Eren vs Reiner on Season 2, Levi vs Kenny squad on ep2 of Season 3, Historia Slicing his father's nape on season 3, Levi vs Beast Titan, Eren slicing the nape of the Colossal Titan on S3P2, Ocean ending of season 3p2 and MANY MANY MORE. He also key animated the famous OP 1 & 2 of season 1 and OP 1 of season 2 . To summarize, he's the person behind all the notable scenes from the past season. If there's something we should have wish right now, I would not wish for Wit to come back but rather I would wish for Arifumi Imai to come back and collaborate to Mappa now.

Something that Mappa can’t do

[@indianflippingart9593]

Mappa can do better. But yes, their higher ups took the wrong decision of accepting it with a 8 months schedule. Mappa is actually three times more experienced and talented studio... They would have made aot three times better. But their dumbass didn't know what and what not to accept with that time schedule

[@AnhHoang-mm7sz]

@@indianflippingart9593 not really, all of Mappa animes including JJK are done by free lance animation teams and CG is created by studio V-sign. Mappa has the legendary Hiramitsu Tadashi as a the character designer but thats pretty much it. Animators at Mappa only polish and do in between frames which are leaked by an animator from AOT staff Mushiyo which she is now a freelancer.

[@ghazaghaza9752]

@@indianflippingart9593 i dont thinks so, their style of animating is different than wit's, mappa are good when it comes to human choreography fights scene, like a martial art hand to hand combat, but when it comes to dynamic camera angle, wit is still top notch which is what made aot animation so good, you'll notice if you pay a little bit more atenttion,mappa is a little static on their camera angle when it comes to combat, they focus at drawing the characters more than moving the angle, thats why the characters movement are fluid asf, wit however did the opposite, the characters move on a lower frames but the camera are very dynamic which fits aot a lot

[@LazyOtaku2007]

The only bad about wiz studio's was the colosal titan animation and that was also not that bad Attack on titan was , is and will always remain my most fav anime And its my personal opinion that attack on titan is the greatest anime ever made It's been more than 6 months since aot ended and i still cannot forget the ending I wish i could erase my memory and experience this masterpiece for thr first time again

@MERAJ Plays Where

[@alejandro1101]

@MERAJ Plays This is not about being immature and saying stupid things like "Wit shat their pants" Wit is a small studio, obviously they can't duplicate their previous work if they don't have enough time for it, mappa on the other hand is a big studio and they can afford to work on more than one project simultaneously, and of course they couldn't do anything at the wit level under that short amount of time so they mainly focused on character design. The attack titan from the last chapter is an example of that, a pretty good drawing but the only thing they animated was his hair, hopefully this time they have more time and we can see the animation that AOT deserves

[@ffuuu2018]

@MERAJ Plays MAPPA delivering better is just assumption simply because they didn't have time, you all keep saying "if they had time", well they didn't, so stop being hypothetical about it because it didn't happen. Also season 4 ep 16 isn't better by any means, all eren was doing there is just standing, so you're gonna say MAPPA's animation of a standing still titan is better than WIT's titan fights? How? Explain how the last episode is better when it doesn't even have any movements in it.

[@ffuuu2018]

[@thespiritofjonathanjoestar6805]

@@agssilv5919 Yeah the pandemic made the situation even worse, I think if it weren't for that, MAPPA could have given us great animation without the need of 3D models.Considering they started to work on Part 2 in October and it will start airing in December 2021 they have had about a year, hoping to see some stellar animation from MAPPA, JJK and GOH is a testament of how good their animation is

[@goodgamist5113]

1:00 it is very clear how the animators made Eren's maneuvering different from Mikasa's. Mikasa's better maneuvering allows her to transfer her previous momentum to her next shoot of wires while Eren seems to always be loosing momentum each shot so Eren needs to shoot more than Mikasa

[@deskbop]

3:17 Peak CGI usage right here.

[@ysjyoutube2599]

I have nothing but respect for the animators at MAPPA... but overall : Studio MAPPA cares about profit. That's why they took over it. WIT gave it their all, despite knowing they wouldn't make shit off of the profits, since they're not on the production committee. To Mappa, Attack on titan is a SECONDARY PROJECT, based on manga sales. However, they banked on the show's popularity to sell the final season. Mappa is actually on the production committee, and committed to making it in a crunch because they knew they could make a shit ton of money off of it. If they were passionate or knew better, they could have denied the project once the pandemic hampered their schedule. They just relied on the popularity of the first 3 seasons and the god tier story to sell us mediocre shit while making us feel guilty for criticising the quality, when production issues are clearly not our problem from a consumer standpoint. Not to mention they straight up LIED to us with the trailer. It's on mappa for accepting such a monumental project with no regard for how hard it is to make it when they should have known so. Don't even believe for A SECOND when people say we wouldn't get season 4 without those guys. AoT is a juggernaut. That thing makes you money. You would eventually get clean, top tier animation if they didn't obsess over profits. The fans deserve better.
