This is why magic is a trade secret
A Kugelblitz is type of black hole formed by concetrating a sufficiently high concentration of light, heat, or radiation into a given space to form an event horizon
HOLY SHIT... The Misfit Class' performance lasted 15 MINUTES. 15 MINUTES OF MOVIE-QUALITY, SMOOTH-BABY-CHEEKED, SPINNING-SHOTS-GALORE GOODNESS. THEY USED ROTOSCOPING, so real dancers actually performed the dances behind the scenes, producing animation so fluid!!!!
There were at least 5 spinning shots. FIVE. CINCO. AT LEAST.
Like look at this. Look at Elizabetta's portrayal of Lilith... This was just the OPENING ACT you guys, and this is just a GIF!!! The music and her singing voice was so enchanting. I wish I had a music background, because they put so many details with the music and instrumentals alone. Speaking of music...
IRUMA SLIDING HIS FINGERS ACROSS THE KEYBOARD!!! The technique??? Like, is he even making mistakes here? Are these really the hands of an amateur? (Legitimate question for piano players). Not featured above, but the particular sequence he also played during Alice's scene is so prettyyyy you gotta see it!!
I'm so proud of him and his ever-growing self-confidence. And the black nail polish he's wearing really adds to the great visuals.
NOW THIS IS A SYNCHRONIZED DANCE
The bodies feel like there's weight to every movement! It doesn't feel like a copy-paste of bodies either? Like you can see their personalities or their dance experience level in the hell dance proper.
From the innocent Aleph (played by Lied) to the bold Khet (played by Sabnock), from the playful intonation of Clara to the icy rationales of Kerori, every Misfit had their time to shine!
I must admit that I don't have much experience with other Music Festival anime episodes. But like, if one's comparing this to the usually stellar and high-budgeted Bones' rendition of BNHA's 4-minute musical band performance... It's evident how much Bandai Namco Pictures CHOSE to give this part depth and substance far beyond what the manga had offered.
To be fair, music performances seem to be Nishi-sensei's bread and butter. (MAKES ME MORE EXCITED FOR THE EVIDOL ARC.) Very happy that every scene of the Hell Dance performance was given so much thought, personality-wise and music-wise and dance-wise and lighting-wise... (GOOD GOD THE COMPOSITING)
(More glazing below. But these are only few compared to the episode experience itself, so watch in full!)
Jazz's movements are so entrancing, like that of a snake that his character usually embodies or is connected to. And the way his arm slips up and over Elizabetta's arm and shoulder, before his hand rests on her cheek. I NEED THE ORIGINAL LIVE ACTION FOOTAGE REFERENCE.
THEY MUST'VE HIRED PROFESSIONALS FOR THIS. THERE'S NO WAY THEY DIDN'T.
Will the next episodes be slideshows with flapping lips because there's no more animation funds? We need to pour more money and views into this anime studio so we get more episodes like thissss
The fact there are #thepitt actors on #CriticalRole live stream supporting #cancer donations should get tumblr crazy! Boy do they look so sexy and melatoninate next to Sam!
