well,Ferdinand became fat, (Rose)Mayn animations looks so different and cheap and childish. compare it with the previous seasons (which I finished rewatching a few days before the 1st ep), it feels very childish and cheap, even is the drawings are not that bad. the very same how they messed up the demon lord retry season 2. S1 was great, unique style, S2 is a generic cheap moneygrab :( that's the state of anime, mass production, quantity over quality. Gumo desu ka, nami ka? unwatchable CG of the second cour. cheat skill in an otjer world? cheap CG in the biggest fing in the end.... I seriously disillusioned on the state where we are today, comapred from 5-10 years ago. anime became the cheap flash-style animations :(:(
I suppose this message was meant for me even though you didn't reply to mine.
Well, the show switched studios, it was produced by 亜細亜度 (Ajiado) before, now it's Wit Studio. It makes sense that the style'd change.
The most appreciated more or less recent work by Ajiado would be Yubisaki to Renren, which is a slow paced one with a lot of sign language there. The only heavy action title drawn by them I'm familiar with would be Shuumatsu no Izetta, which I can't say I like.
Wit Studio is the one behind AoT, Vinland Saga, Mahoutsukai no Yome and stuff like that, a lot more action focused.
That's pretty much why it looks so different. I also prefer Ajiado style, but maybe there'll be more action scenes this season which they are not that good with? And yes, Wit gets a lot of critique for their CG.
