I can’t quote you right now because mobile-version is being irritating, so I’ll just answer and say my thoughts
You do realize that most of the pictures from the ones you picked are just still frames. With still-frames, you can go into detail easily. Most of Rewrite’s PV’s were action packed.
This is one of the factors only. Yes, art is important too. It’s not a book.
The PV has a lot of derp shots, and the art in general is very minimalistic, with the lack of lighting found commonly in anime and soft shading and gradation that made the art seemed so unfocused and, well, “blurred.” But it’s in the animation and the composition/cinematography where the art shines the most. The movements look so dynamic and alive, and something about the composition seem so good.
And I thought the CG was well-done too. It doesn’t feel out of place, and I personally thought that it was just nice to look at. Or maybe because we haven’t seen Krivoy Rog enough?
Well, I did noticed that they have changed the color palette in this PV. It doesn’t look washed out anymore like it did before.
Someone from the MAL forums (yeah I lurk there) succintly described what the art’s about.
Basically, the anime sacrificed art in favor of fluid, dynamic animation, and we can agree or disagree on that choice. But to me, it suited the kind of story Rewrite has, and I can expect a lot of sakuga shots from action scenes in the future.
Well the art is the least of my worries in regards to the adaptation in general. And let’s save the word “trainwreck” for after the airing of the anime itself. :))
So if it’s only one factors, then you better specify what the other factors are. It’s not very appreciated if you rant without backing your reasoning, because these forums are not meant to be your personal ranting space.
LB is not KyoAni. JC Staff
AB is not Kyoani. PA Works
Charlotte is not Kyoani. PA Works.
Rewrite isn’t anywhere near to all of Key-based anime, no matted who produced it. Yeah, someone compared it to Grisaia. Comparing to Grisaia Rewrite looks awesome. But come on, almost everthing looks awesome comparing to grisaia.
And it’s not like people from 8bit aren’t capable for producing something whit GOOD art. Look at COMET LUCIFER. Even CG in this show looks really good (me praising CG… well, a phenomenon). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pNSntrbVnY
So I can’t say anything bad about something which I don’t like, because this board was made only for praising everything which has connection with Key? Good joke. I love Key, but I won’t be praising something which doesn’t deserve any praise.
I wrote my thoughts. I think I wrote enough, and writing more has no sense because most of users here are psychofans, so no matter what I say, I will be always wrong.
No one said anything about they being by Kyoani.
It’s not about praising or shaming. It’s about being intelligent which you are not. You’re just being a cunt. Like Pepe said, unless you elaborate and explain you’re arguments no one is gonna pay attention to you opinions.
You’re clearly misunderstanding. This board is not made for praising everything Key, it was made to discuss everything Key. If you just say “it will be a train wreck” without saying why then you are not discussing.
So when you say:
No, you did not write enough, and if you seriously think that, then you need to reevaluate how other people understand your words.
Saying this is in direct violation of the first rule of our Code of Conduct: “The Golden Rule of Kazamatsuri is to respect your fellow members.” and calling most users here “psychofans” is not, in any way, respectable. Consider this your first strike.
Simplified art - Obviously it has to be simplified. Do you not know that they’re saving budget for the action scenes ? They wouldn’t waste money to just do SoL stuff that probably won’t sell as much as the action scenes.
Average animation - I’m sorry, but you’re probably seeing things. The animation is gorgeous.
Awful Shading - You later went on to say Little Busters! had better shading. With Rewrite, yes, the shading is more spread out, but it’s not worse than Little Busters! Little Busters! shading wasn’t the best in the anime. I couldn’t stand looking at the shading for Haruka’s and Kanata’s hair with J.C. Staff doing it. They literally decided to put in the lowest possible color of that shade, on Haruka and Kanata’s hair, which didn’t look normal. The shading for Rewrite is more light, which is okay, because they’re saving the budget for the action scenes. If you’re really comparing, I prefer the Rewrite shading over this
Ugly CG - Well, it wasn’t bothersome to me at all. Compare some CG like Mayoiga’s to Rewrite’s, and Rewrite’s looks better. CG’s weren’t bad. Could they use more cleaning up ? Yes. But we’re the that horrible ? No. It actually looked fitting than most of the other CG’s nowadays.
Kagari in the PV - Uh. This anime will portray the “sixth route” about “that girl”, so I don’t know why you’re WTF-ing. First few episodes have to get people interested. Kagari’s the Key to it.
Blurred ? Little Busters! was more blurred, even with still frames so I don’t know what you’re talking about. Go watch the OP for example. And look at this picture and tell me you don’t see blurring. Blurring can’t be helped

Being a train wreck because you think it has bad animation, bad art, bad CG’s, and having Kagari shown in the PV ? I’m sorry, but when does bad art/animation = train wreck ? Don’t be narrow-minded like that. Showing Kagari in the PV doesn’t equal train wreck. As I’ve said, this will tell about “that girl”.
It can’t be compared to past Key-works because you know why ? Most Other Key stories focused on the SoL aspect, because that was a major part of the story. Rewrite’s SoL aspect isn’t the main focus. Why would you waste time animating scenes like that, when you can save the budget for something greater ?[quote=“csr, post:17, topic:2881”]

That’s not the reason. The reason being is because you’re saying all of that, being narrow-minded. Go ahead and express your opinions, but if you’re seriously just doing it for the sake of starting negativity without thinking logically, then it’s best not to say anything. You’re not even saying why you think certain aspects are bad. If you did, then maybe people wouldn’t be so against you.
i’ll just say that chibimoth looks perfect to me

where the heck is sakuya 
the rest of the pv it’s just normal but not awful at all
C-could it be? That my random dream of a theory is actually what might happen?
The first 20 seconds or so are obviously from Moon…
Holy shit Im getting really excited now. It would be so cool if they put that first. As the article said, Im sure some people are still convinced that this would “spoil Rewrite”, but Im telling you, Ive thought through this several times, and putting the beginning of Moon at the start of the story would create such an interesting presentation. Not only would it make it “less confusing” (as they said they wanted to do), but it would set a completely different tone for the story, which I would love to see.
As for the art. Its obviously very flat, which is kinda startling at first, but I think it still fits well with Rewrite. The animation itself is a bit rough in some parts, but the moments of really lively movement look so cool they make up for it in my opinion.
Kotarou’s monologue at the beginning took place in Moon anyway, so it works out in my opinion
Interesting. I’m glad that they seem to be going in the direction I wanted them to, which was to start with moon and then introduce each of the heroine’s arcs.
The art of course isn’t as pretty as past key animations, but for a story like rewrite with many action-centric scenes, I feel that smoothness is far more important. We’ll see how things turn out.
If they do another season, I hope they can really just focus on terra and focus on the themes and ideas (growing up, environmentalism, etc) expressed there. Looks good so far.
I don’t remember reading or seeing anything in the official sites/twitter about the PV only having scenes from the first episode.
Aside from that the PV got me really excited for the anime 
I can’t wait to enjoy the show with you all!!
I recognized scenes from nearly all routes. As much of a surprise they started out with Moon, if they plan on animating all routes…I’m definitely worried.
In my mind, the split cour theory wouldn’t work if they showed scenes in this PV for this season? As in, everything in the PV would be explained during the 13 episodes???
13 episodes?
For maybe almost 8 routes?
Someone? Anyone?
This is pretty much the most important thing going on here guys. All hail Chibimoth, the mosuest of mosu.
Mosu~
I’m looking forward to it at any rate. I’m not really going to speculate too heavily though; as far too many things are still unknown.
Looks like they are funneling everything into the action scenes and the moe shots. It’ll never hold up to my dream of a Ufotable Rewrite, but they look to be focusing on the right things.
Gonna disagree there. The Clannad VN wasn’t very appealing visually, but the Kanon and especially AIR VNs have nice visuals imo.
Season 1 of LB was pretty ugly, but they stepped it up for Refrain.[quote=“csr, post:6, topic:2881”]
Can’t you see how huge the difference is? Shading, details, backgrounds quality, folds on their clothes.

I don’t think this is a pretty show, but none of the things you bring up are explanations as to why it is so. Those are all stylistic choices. The characters are simple and smooth-edged. The colors are bright and colorful but never harsh or washed-out. Enough to cause some discomfort for some, but not enough to make it feel claustrophobic. It’s very fitting of what Rewrite Common is. It does however seem to be filled with QUALITY, possibly due to a lack of time, money or staff. Basically, the animation is either incomplete or was called-in, making use of cheap workers.
Take stills of this PV and the upcoming anime and they’ll look nice enough.
I hate a lot of Key stuff. Litbus and AIR are trash, and Clannad is pretty sucky overall. I like to think I can actually explain myself though, and provide some details to discuss.
The start of Rewrite was pretty hinty towards some of that stuff.
I actually enjoyed watching the PV and I trying to contain my excitement for the anime. I love seeing the characters animated, especially Gil and Pani, but Chibimoth already got me loving him a lot more. The animation does look fairly decent and I won’t complain about minor issues as some of the posts I read so far. Only a few more days left!
Ima make this short.
when it comes to Aesthethics for example Kotarou hoping around: Pretty good. I wanted to get the same atmosphere feeling as from the VN, it’s not exactly what I imagined but at it could be worse so Im satisfied.
As Taka said, I think it will have really good action scenes that we wanted to see so much (well at least I did).
Other than that my overall impression is: hype
but damn some of the shots… like kotarou talking with yoshino just looks awful to me
