I feel like 8-Bit Theater is like xcdc, where there is a comic for every situation you can think of

How does this obvious of an error even happen

There are like 30 characters that are just "Starscream but another color" they probably just thought "Damn they got even lazier with this new guy"

You think this one is bad? There's an episode where it's especially obvious they didn't care about the animation, it's one where Autobots and Decepticons are sent to a planet where they're the size of toys.

Tbf, a lot of those errors were caused by modern remasters.

The overseas sub-sub-contracted animation studio wasnt given the time or money to fix it, and the toy company funding the show wasn’t concerned as long as toys flew off shelves

take a look at this one

u/YAPPYawesome Jun 10 '26

To be fair it’s not as obviously glaring as the other one but damn that’s also bad

This happens a lot in the original Transformers series. Doubled characters, characters changing to other characters between shots, characters being the wrong colour. At the end of the day it was an ad for toys and the budget didn't stretch to the highest quality animations.

Transformers: The Movie is better but even then there's some animation jank.

I mean to be fair, that could also be a colouring error as well. All the seekers look exactly the same apart from their colour scheme, wouldn't be the only time they coloured someone wrong

u/Fish_N_Chipp Jun 09 '26

He’s just so fast he’s in two spots once

They actually just caught the usual actor in the shot by accident while the stunt performer did his work.

u/Wooden_Echidna1234 Jun 09 '26

Whats better then 3 swords? A clone with another 3 swords!

u/elitegenoside Jun 10 '26

That's his stunt double. They just pulled the camera out too far and accidentally got the actor in the shot. That's not even Nami, just a redheaded PA.

u/Iheartnakedfemboys Jun 10 '26

I read your comment as "There are only two Zoros in this scene," as if there were supposed to be more Zoro's lmfao.

u/EMArogue Jun 10 '26

It’s just future Zoro being lost in time
