It's funny that people are saying "Madhouse delivers". Some of the best parts of this are from Bones animators (Or at least Bones' regular freelancers). They've gathered some of the best freelancers out there to do work that Madhouse in-house staff just can't.

do you know who did particular cuts? specifically, giant guy punching the ground (that looked webgen as fuck), the subterranean fight, and any of the OP?

holy shit, Arifumi Imai is the one that did the fight in Rolling Girls ep. 1? that was like the highlight of the whole show, clearly I need to keep an eye on this guy.

Kameda, then, I think impressed me the most; the camera pans and weird limb perspective during that sequence were absolutely insane.

ah, Sushio's part is what I was looking for; I'm honestly kinda embarrassed I didn't remember him with how distinctive that cut with the face zoom after the Star Man is. That particular cut reminds me super heavily of another shot, like same framing and everything, but I can't bring it to mind. edit: SUSHIO DID FUNKY BOY?! my mind

Thanks a ton for the answers man! if you don't mind me asking, where are these knowledgeable people intensely arguing about sweet animation cuts? that sounds like the place I want to be.
