      No, TBATE is actually just fine.

      Blue Lock is famously powerpoint animation, but it actually works well. I think of it as an animated manga panels, kind of like 60s Thor/Hulk/Sub Mariner/Captain America cartoons. Actually Blue Lock does throw in some sakuga at appropriate times.

      If you really want to see bad animation, watch Teogonia episode 1, but I don’t want to trash it too much because the art and story have their merits.

      I posted an example of the weird combination of good art/bad animation in Teogonia episode 2

        Blue Locks animation fucking sucks and was a result of poor management and unrealistic time constraints. That the final result is even watchable, given the production woes, may be a credit to the poor animators and editors, but it doesn’t “work well”. The existence of worse animation doesn’t make it better either. A minimal animation style can work, if it was planned from the beginning, but that wasn’t the case with Blue Lock.
