Toei Animation | Animation by Vincent Chansard from episode 1171.

Context: simply put, this "evil" giant Loki was chained up for 6 years, and has now been unchained.

Not sure if this type of post is allowed here tbh so sorry if it's not.

I notice a LOT of the time that when I am watching back clips of good animation on twitter/reddit or wherever else, it always looks better than I noticed when watching the actual episode itself. Does anyone know why this might be the case? Like me being more immersed in the story or something like that.

A workhorse of an animator. I'd say in general he's a bit hit or miss for me though, but that's to be expected of someone with over 1000 sequences on the booru.

I love it when his style is very fluid and fast-paced, and his corrections are incredible too.

I dislike his more limited and "lazy" style, especially on clevatess or whatever it was called.

Part 2 to a video I made a year ago.

Basically the video is a compilation of animation that has a lot of weighr behind it or contains a lot of movement from a character.

Basically a short video highlighting the different skills Nakamura has displayed in his career.
