No matter how many times I try to watch one of these shows that use this clunky, low polygon count GCI, I just end up disgusted and feel like these studios just consider us all suckers.

Netflix seems to be the biggest purveyor of this, but it seems to be cropping up everywhere. I can think of only one reason they would peddle this is that it’s considerably cheaper to produce.

I’d like to that if the story is good enough that you could look past the bad animation, but I am constantly ripped from the story because it, no matter how hard I try. Because it’s so prevalent now, it makes me wonder if most people just aren’t bothered by it, or maybe even actually like it.

Here are some of the shows I’ve tried watching.

  • The Seven Deadly Sins: Grudge of Edinburgh
  • Trigun Stampede
  • Exception
  • Godzilla Singular Point
  • The Dragon Prince

Am I being over critical?

    No it isn’t? Just because you see “Netflix Original” does not means netflix made it. Netflix did not made nor produced most of the anime in its library. They only have the right to distribute it outside Japan in most cases, with 0 involvement in the production

      That makes sense. It’s just seems that I see more of it on their platform than elsewhere.

      Thanks for clearing that up.

      Interesting, for me seeing “Netflix original” on a anime preview was an immediate nah, can’t be bothered, a bit close minded maybe I know. This changes everything

        It’s the same with live action shows, btw

        For example, outside the US Titans (the live action Teen Titans show) or the first seasons of Star Trek Discovery are “Netflix originals” because netflix had the exclusive distribution rights

        The Netflix originals are a thing that varies per country, it all depends if Netflix has the exclusive distribution rights for that country or not
