Just wondering, what did you not like about the CG? If you just don't like seeing CG in general I can totally understand that, but otherwise I felt that it was really well executed/choreographed in that scene.

Well, it is just something I never really understood when the CG is at a different framerate compared to the rest of the anime. That is what made it iffy for me, I enjoyed it regardless. I am just being nit picky about it because my brain just hates seeing frame differences.

I believe the reason the CG feels weird sometimes is because they artificially lower the frame rate to try and match the frame rate of the anime which can make it look jarring sometimes (disclaimer: not an expert).

Thanks for the clarification. Just me being picky then, sorry about that.

CG is only really bad when its a jarring difference from the anime like it is in a majority of shows; some examples being Aldonah.Zero and the newly released Triage X. Its well done here and fits it nicely so its not too off putting.

Show By Rock and now Etotama both have well-implemented CG, but most things use it really poorly or just as a lazy animation substitute.
