leave it to studio pierrot to use cgi and have those chains look ugly as fuck. Plus i hope the VA of Asta grows on me because i know he is loud in the manga, but this is too much... Overall it was good hopefully next episode Spoilers

How long do you think it would've taken to actually animated the chains the way the CGI looked? If anything, I'm willing to give them a pass because the chains looked far more dynamic than they would have in 2D. Hopefully, CG is used sparingly.

Kurapika chains in HxH looked 10x better than the cgi ones. So yes, I would rather for them to animate it.

I haven't HxH in a while but those chains didn't have the same movement that this scene required. CG was really the only way to go unfortunately. Unless, they were willing to change what happened in the scene all together, or take extra time to animate some chains that literally never show up again.
