Some of the other CG is a bit undertextured but mecha CG is superb.
Yeah I see what you mean I just watched the second episode and when the VF’s where fighting the CG did seem to improve. The CG which seemed dated to me was the air plane CG and since there was not all that much VF action in the first episode it made it seem like the plane CG was what the Mecha CG was going to be, but episode 2 had more VFs and they looked pretty good in action not as good as frontier but still pretty good (but It’s not really fair to compare Zero’s CG to Frontier’s)
Speaking of the second episode it was pretty good there was a little more action than the last one but not all that much more but at least the action in this episode was VF orientated instead of being just planes fighting each other. Also lol whut Goose survived (I forget his name so I’ll call him goose till I remember) I was not really expecting to see him living but it was a somewhat pleasant surprise. Also gotta say Shin probably has the best pilot helmet I’ve seen in a while (Hikaru’s helmet is still my favourite from Macross though).
Well so far I like Zero but it has not impressed me as much as frontier did that is probley due to the lack of Jpop so far and perhaps that I don’t care for the characters yet. I just hope that in the final battle they win with the power of song.
