Kimetsu no Yaiba 3 – Anime suffers criticism for the quality of 3DCG

Check it out:

One of the Upper Moons of Muzan , it releases fish-like creatures to terrorize the blacksmith village and kill its inhabitants . However these demons only die when the containers containing them are destroyed, and although their strength easily surpasses the demon hunters, they are not a threat to the current Pillars, Mitsuri Kanroji and Muichiro Tokito .

Therefore, Ufotable studio opted for a 3DCG animation that immediately got people talking on social media . As always, the animation work is impeccable, but the drawing and plotting style began to be criticized. Apparently “the creature stands out too much on the screen” next to Kotetsu, which is animated in 2D.

Check out the comments:

It's bad 3D, but it only lasts a few seconds, so that's no problem.
The people who criticize this are definitely asking for trouble.
Why did you decide to use CGI? It's just a fish!
To be honest, it's good CGI, it's definitely of a higher quality than what MAPPA does. Generally speaking, it's standard CGI, but the design is great.
Well, I think they've improved on the CGI they used in previous seasons, but it's still average. I don't know why it surprises you, CGI is not Ufotable's strong point
What the hell, this isn't Kimetsu no Yaiba
The beginning of Kimetsu no Yaiba's decline. This is already one of the most boring arcs, and you put 3D in it?
I've seen worse, but this one seems lazy, especially when it comes to Ufotable
It was a mistake to put 3D where everything else is 2D. The correct thing to do would be to show the fish alone in the scene

Synopsis:

Tanjiro wakes up from a coma after defeating Lua Superior 6 in the Entertainment District and needs to go to the village to forge a new sword, as his old weapon was damaged. However, on the way, he comes across new demons who, after orders from Muzan, the main villain of the plot, intend to eliminate all the hunters.

Therefore, the 1st season of Kimetsu no Yaiba premiered in April 2019 , making the film a successful phenomenon. Finally, the second season premiered on December 5, 2021 in Japan. In addition, the 3rd season premiered on Crunchyroll after the release of the film To the Swordsmith Village- World Tour on February 2 in Japan.
