Favourite Anime/Manga QUALITY Moments...

Ah, animation errors. Truly, anime would be dull without you.

Basically, post your favourite anime QUALITY moments here.

Post images in spoilers, for the sake of tidiness and the inherent humour of opening an amusingly titled spoiler to reveal a silly picture.

For those not in the know, QUALITY refers to extremely poor animation, be it due to layering errors, time/budget restraints, poor remastering, or the animators just declaring "Fuck this!" and half-arsing the job.

To start off:

OH GOD WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR HAND  SPOILER: Show

QUALITY is the Right of All Sentient Beings  SPOILER: Show
Image


"My face feels flat..."  SPOILER: Show
Image


DEEEERRRRRRRRP  SPOILER: Show
Image


ALL ABOARD THE QUALITY VAN  SPOILER: Show
ImageImageImageImage


Even Kamina is not safe from QUALITY  SPOILER: Show

I know it's unfair to pick on a show from 1979, but...damn.  SPOILER: Show

As much as I love it, PMMM is full of these (especially the on-air version).

What's the problem in the Lain image? Is it her sisters' eyes?

Edit: Never mind, found the problem. :lol:

Ah, got it - but first I found the backward-facing ear on the nearest figure.

I see it now, but I could only make it out with the non-thumbnail version. I think the assertion that it stands out blatantly in the thumbnail version is false, because what's visible there could be easily mistaken for what's missing at such tiny size and resolution.

I wonder if, on the hypothetical of someone that works in the animation industry joining this forum and finding this thread, it would be understandable on their part to feel offended.

I don't see that as a backwards facing ear, just an ear seen from behind.

I'm convinced Rena has no abdomen. Her legs do, indeed, go all the way up.

But then you also have the overseas subcontractors, whose QA differs wildly from outstanding to downright shitty.

You have these QUALITY issues -- unlike their Western counterparts -- because most of these studios have to beat fixed deadlines or cost themselves a season, even if it means cutting corners.

That is some of the worst art I have ever seen in a VN. I have no idea how this became so acclaimed. It looks even worse than Aku no Hana.
