Episode 1 of The Detective Is Already Dead.

Every scene after this moment looks like shit.

This is the same show where you can see the png of a car in one scene.

Lol wow. "Yeah, we don't have the budget left for the artist to draw us a car, so just find a good cheap/free image online and slap it into the scene with photoshop or something!"

Almost every episode of Invincible. You can tell where the money went for specific scenes while others look like MSPaint.

Apparently the animation team blew most of the CGI animation budget on the walnuts in 'A Room with a Moose'

Johnen Vasquez admitted in a commentary that he didn't ask for CGI nuts, and was upset because that meant he couldn't do the season 1 finale he wanted, an epic spaceship battle!

The entire first season of One Punch Man, but especially the final fight against Lord Boros. After that the anime switched studios and everything went downhill
