Animation looks better than I thought it would be.
Being what essentially amounts to LotR fanfiction, I am tentatively excited to watch.

6 0 ReplyAfter Amazon buttfucked Rings of Power and Wheel of Time, I won't watch a damn thing they make based on pre-existing IP. This looks good though.

I'm kinda disappointed it just looks like a generic Japanese anime?
Edit: as in the stylistic art for the characters is very just Japanese anime not fantasy drawings matching the books.
5 0 ReplyI really meant emphasis on generic not the anime part.
Like the characters all look like any generic isekai cast on some 3d mapped backgrounds from scans from the movie miniatures.
Its got a feeling of cheap and passionless like some rich guy just paid for an anime adaptation cause anime is currently popular.
I dunno maybe I'm reading into it but my hype went way down.

Yeah that was a bit of a turn off for me, im open minded but i already say “anime tropes” presented in the trailer that kinda make me wary.
Still will gobble up any LOTR content.

Damn this does not look good. Is American animation really dead?
4 0 ReplyThe animation was done by Sola Entertainment, a Japanese studio. Though this studio appears to work closely with western publishers and IP for the majority of their projects.
