And wht do u have to argue bout it…

[@sewersteel]

funny that 8bit ruined 2 chigiri runs before this

[@SomeAreForgotten]

This is what the bare minimum should be.

[@nodignity3468]

​@@SomeAreForgotten Name 1 anime where that kind of animation is bare minimum. It's easily peak animation, most of the animes have that type of animation sequences only 1-3 times per episode. Nagi's goal could be listed as bare minimum tho, but tge thing is his goal might had mid animation, but it had good artstyle, so even his goal isn't a bare minimum in the most of the animes
