ZTG Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 So yea, what do you think? Ninjago better as an anime do to the fact that its based off chinese and Japanese culture? Or should it still be cgi? "Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it.

Kyori Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 It's CGI. Even Avatar: The Last Airbender isn't really anime, despite the style (it's "anime-influenced"). Anime is also not entirely CGI, there has to be some form of traditional animation. However, in Japan, everything is anime, and the category we've given it is purely Western in origin. Heck, I have a hard time distinguishing anime and Western animation when I'm speaking Mandarin (they are also called the same thing). But, per the western view, I would say no, it is CGI. It's not even animated in Japan, and has no Japanese or even Asian origin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatanui Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) CGI works perfectly for NINJAGO in my opinion. I am not sure anime would work too well for minifigures.~Gata.

Kyori Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Bleh, I somehow misunderstood your first post. I think I would be more inclined to watch Ninjago if it were anime-style (provided they're not still minifigs). I don't really care at the moment. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meiko Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think that CGI works better for LEGO in general, especially when Minifigures are involved. I really like Ninjago's animation style, because it looks like its half realistic and half LEGO with the characters, in the way they move, act, etc. -- Meiko - @georgebarnick LUG Ambassador and administrator at Brickipedia News reporter and database administrator at Brickset Administrator at BIONICLEsector01 DISCLAIMER: All opinions and contributions made under this account are based solely on my own personal thoughts and opinions, and in no way represent any of the above groups/entities.

UltraHau Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) A Ninjago anime - provided the characters are human, kind of like what Tohkann's done with Re-Birth Chronicles - would be pretty interesting in my humble opinion.EDIT: This might be better as a poll.

ZTG Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 As much I love I in CGI I think the ninja and serpentine would look so beast in anime and so would the skulkin(now that would be scary and awesome!)I know! I'll post some pics of them in an anime form!A Ninjago anime - provided the characters are human, kind of like what Tohkann's done with Re-Birth Chronicles - would be pretty interesting in my humble opinion.The ninja are technically human, however they are in a minifig state. In fact, all minifigs are technically human.EDIT: This might be better as a poll.CGI works perfectly for NINJAGO in my opinion.
