On a separate note, that was a good epsiode. I hope what I said makes sense, because I was merely speculating. Not only that but in the first series, Suzuki was the animation director for episodes 17, 19, 48, and 151 and key animated in episodes 47, 133, and 151. And what I noticed is that the animation director for the next episode, number 166 is done by Hirofumi Suzuki, who also was the animation director for episodes 82, 85, and 123, and openings 1-3, and 5-7 and is one of the 2 character designers of the show. With Code Geass, I counted roughly near 400 people involved with the animations (if you count the same tasks I mentioned above) and 500+ people with Brotherhood.Īnother possibility is because there might be different teams doing different episodes, certain animation directors end up doing episodes. If you compare Naruto Shippuden to shows where the animations seem consistently good like Code Geass of Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, the number of people involved in those shows seem much higher.
There might be a team with a set of animators depending on number of people or skill that do the well-animated episodes and other teams that do the "not so well," but acceptable episodes.Īnd according to the Anime News Network encyclopedia, by looking at the number of animation directors, assistant animation directors, key animators, 2nd key animators, animation checkers and in-betweeners involved in Shippuden, I counted roughly over 200 people. Now, I assume that not every person who's recruited to do the animations for Shippuden doesn't do every episode and that they are divided into different teams/groups.
I think part of it, if not much of it, is about not having a enough of a quantity of animators to do the job. I think I can give a theory as to why Naruto Shippuden tends to change from time-to-time between animations. İ wonder why they'll try to change animation.Not bad but it's a little bit late for that.
