I don't really have a problem with the animation but I do have a question

The original Dragonball run ran from 88-97. One 20ish minute episode every week, no weeks off, no seasons.

They did have several different artists through it's run and would bring in their best artists to animate the most important moments.

But still, every week for almost a decade straight, there was a new episode.

I think Dragonball's animation is on par with this if not even better.

How were there to keep that show running at that pace but Invincible is such a struggle?

Toei basically had indentured servants/animators. The reason why DBZ looks so better even with bad animation scenes is because they had great directors, art direction, and choreographers.

Impact frames, a sense of speed, dynamic poses all used on limited animation, something invincible doesn’t do because they don’t have the animation foundation, the animators to execute, or good directors.

The Japanese animation industry is infamous for basically treating its workforce like indentured servants, especially back in those days. So that's how and why.

On a side note: Every time I see Kregg, he reminds me of Sinestro from DC Comics.

Also, they introduced us to Universa in episode 1 of this season. Then Mark and Eve low-diff'd her, and we haven't seen her since lol.

This episode has some of the worst/cheap animation ive ever seen. How can this show animation be so bad when something like Vix Ex Machina is god tier animation? Smdh.

Amazon isn't putting enough money into the animation budget for Invincible, which makes no sense. Isn't this Prime Video's biggest show?

This show should be looking top-tier, and they have the money to do so. Amazon needs to stop being cheap.

Thats hard to believe because they have other animated shows with great animation. The studio is putting all the money into celebrity voice actors.
