It moves at two seconds a frame

We can argue about who was responsible for this all day long, but the fact is we all let this happen. You were there, I was there, this anime exists & we can't go back. You know those generic shows that play in the background of other shows? That's what this is but worse. Kenny lauderdale breaks down this legendarily bad anime & talks about the history surrounding the worst anime ever made, Twinkle Nora Rock me. I also cover the special on the other side of the laserdisc. This anime ova should not even exist, but here it is in all it's bad animation glory. For those that say 80's anime is better, you now have the perfect example for the exact opposite with this anime review. Is it the worst anime of all time? Some think so. Terrible animation can sometimes elevate something to art...this is not one of those cases. It has this dance, I can't point it out in the description, but it's not 60fps, or 24 fps, it's no joke, two seconds a frame. Nora will rock you so hard it'll be impossible to even reanimate it. Serious contender for worst anime of all time.
btw, yes it really looks like this

[@TheWilderCat]

I feel bad for the animators. I don’t think they’re bad at their job, I think this is just straight up unfinished and someone at the top released it anyway. Explains the sloppy/straight up missing inbetweens but mostly decent keyframes. The one guy in the background moving especially convinces me. If it was just cheap they wouldn’t have animated him at all. I’m guessing they intended to animate all of them.

[@pubcle]

You can also tell things with the details like the quality shading and extra details specifically in Nora the character. There's a light soft lighting stylization to the best frames and some really nice detailing with solid proportions and giving some life to the character design of specifically Nora which is clearly the prime focus of the effort that did remain. You can see for example right at 9:25 for a few frames that character's face is drawn perfectly fine and then suddenly for two frames the lines cross and things go wonky. I think this was intended to be a pretty decently animated thing but suddenly there were either massive budget cuts mid-production, rushes, or just extremely poor planning.

[@XWierdThingsHappenX]

Right cause like it cuts to smoother animation and it looks good and is smooth.

6:55 Seriously, these storyboard/animation layouts are very well done. If I had only seen these drawings and the manga artwork, I would have thought that the anime probably turned out pretty well. That it turned out so badly means that the "animators" weren't working from these layouts or any preproduction artwork at all.

Back in the day, the keyframes would be fully animated under the direct guidance of the director. To get the story flow and motion of characters/objects down to what the final video should be. This would then release the writing, director and audio staff to move onto another project while the bulk animators fill in the blanks. THIS is what we are seeing. We are seeing just the key motion frames. Usually the part that takes FOREVER and costs the most is all the bulk animations filling in the rest of the ~20/24 frames per second. They must have gotten to the point where they animated all the keyframes...and then ran out of budget or canceled or something. Why they released it anyway is what I am curious about lol

[@AlottaBoulchit]

This reminds me of the 90s anime for the (mostly unknown to the west) Manga Violinist of Hameln. It was soo bad already because they changed the series tone (comedy manga super serious dramatic anime) but then they ran out of budget and the series became more "stills with sound" than animation. I'm surprised they let incomplete stuff go out but I guess it's better bad than a waste of time for the staff.

This review is still amazing

[@onurubu]

The way Nora is drawn reminds me of how Junji Ito draws women a bit. I like that aesthetic.

[@plasticflower]

I like the way she's drawn as well. The still frames aren't that bad for the time. Honestly the guy in this video goes on about how this show has no animation for 15 minutes... I mean, we get it after 10 seconds, right? Obviously something went really wrong during the production of this title, they ran out of money or whatever, and they decided to release it unfinished. Not sure if that warrants labeling it as the worst anime ever. I'm personally more offended by titles that had a proper budget and were "finished" but bad nevertheless than by this.

[@kl3321]

yeah it's a beautiful art style

[@gustavourbina8343]

モチポンズ Oh boy, I think this guy rambling on for a small detail is a common thing in his channel. I know it’s been 2 months but have you seen his “ChargeMan Ken” video?

[@basechung]

@@plasticflower They are bad for the time. Even Fist of the North Star's worst frames look 100x better than this. Is someone forcing you to watch this critique? I know you care very much about this guy's opinion but just leave a dislike and move on next time.

[@mrkisukes]

This anime is the embodiment of the tongue and check criticism of "looks like the animation budget ran out". They did the key-frames but didn't have the time to do the in-between-frames.

[@satadenai9182]

I also think they're missing in-between frames. If anyone wants to watch an anime about making anime, watch Shirobako. You'll learn how key frames are typically drawn in-house and the in-betweens being subcontracted to other studios.
