Why the hell...

[appelsap]

maybe it depends on the person(s) who draw the episode, maybe they don't use the same people for every episode

I think it's to do with the budget. They can spend some money on quality animation for big fights (Gaara vs.Rock Lee, Hokage vs. Oro) and opening/endings but not every single normal episode. Why do you need quality animation for a talking scene?

Almost all of talking scene are in good animation. When the fighting scene start the animation change.


Look at the fight of Oro, First, Second and Third, the animation are not good. Their faces don't look nice, their pants look bad.

The Second did some water jutso, the Third did some earth(the wall that he created), and the First did some three. After Enma was summon take a look at the earth wall that The Third made. The earth wall just become a wood that you can buy at your local Home Depot store.

Eps 95-96 animation was not really that great.

Look at the part where Naruto and Jiraya just started their journey. Those are one of the best animation that i ever seen.

The best animation fight that I ever seen is the one with Shino and the puppet guy.

I also think its due t the budget, I kinda think its the same thing as a movie trailer, they make the trailer really cool in order to have more audience, but then again its just me.

The intro has to look appealing. they show it at the beginning of every episode, so it just can't be bad.

i seriously don't mind the art. i can't even tell if it's bad animation or not. i think the animators always do a good job w/ the fighting scenes.
