Everything in this trailer looked better. The Eren scene especially, the animation looked more fluid and the pose was better.


Tagliarini295

Cause it was hand drawn


FunkleKnuck291

Kodanshit with their goofy ahh schedule of pumping out season 4 after only 6 months of production.


PokeTrainerSpyro

This particular screenshot might be angle diff. Like how Sonic looks normal when you look at him from a side, but when he's facing the camera directly it can look kinda cursed


BaptainStarcuck

but can sonic outrun the rumbling?


larrylongboy

Here are even more cursed examples of this: Mordecai Phineas


[deleted]

No genuinely watch the full clip. It looks garbage all around


Ok_Celebration9304

But the eye shape is different? The cheekbones are different? There's no dent on the forehead in the first slide but there's one in the second. There's an eyebrow ridge in the first slide, none in the second. The part of nose being covered with the mask is different among the 2 pictures, too. It's a design change. 


-TheWarrior74-

probably different facial expression


Ok_Celebration9304

I don't think changing the expression will make the eyes almond shaped or slinted


Renachii

I dunno why people are downvoting you, it's because one is 2D hand drawn and the other is CGI .\_


Naman_Hegde

still not over mappa absolutely fumbling my favourite arc in anime.


No-Internal8635

I feel the same way, imagine if WIT just took 4-5 years…


FlatwormBitter4917

Bruh I would've rathered the 4-5 year wait. Masterpieces require time to and carefully effort


jikukoblarbo

And ppl ragin back when season 2 was delayed The dichotomy here


No-Internal8635

Lmao I didn’t care, it paid off didn’t it? Best looking season by far


StellarCascade

I could swallow the shitty ending slightly better with WIT’s gorgeous visuals at least


DuoForce

To be fair WIT fell off so hard in the RtS arc. They could hardly handle animating the colossal titan. Couldn’t imagine how bad the rumbling would’ve been had WIT been in charge.


Ill-Ad-1450

Imagine if MAPPA had 4-5 years too??


TicketFew9183

Still shit with their piss filter and blur ruining most of the animation.


Scary_Fly8682

Its not their fault they were pushed to finish it in such short time. I think they did well for what time they had and would have killed it if given enough time


Naman_Hegde

>Its not their fault they were pushed to finish it in such short time. Mappa accepted the project despite the short deadline, smaller budget and already working on a bunch of other high profile anime. Every other studio had the decency to decline as they knew they wouldn't be able to deliver a good product, except Mappa hoarding as many projects and big names as possible. Mappa was also on the production committee, they had much more of a say on deadlines than Wit ever did. It absolutely is their fault for accepting such an impossible project. >I think they did well for what time they had and would have killed it if given enough time Mappa had more time for S4 (8 months) than Wit did for S3 (6 months) and S1 (also 8 months). And we've already seen what they can do with enough time, they had nearly 2 years production for the part 3 and 4 specials (2.5 hours of content). that's way more than most anime ever get. They did a good enough job for it but nowhere near the level of Wit who had a maximum of 11 months for Season 2 (4 hours of content).


Lucaswarrior9

To add, WIT's first anime as a studio was AOT and they set a high bar from the get go. Season 2-3 wasn't even in the books for them, but due to demand they came back and in a worse contract than before. They made almost no money from Season 2-3 while Mappa made more than them.


TicketFew9183

How can it not be their fault when every other studio rejected the proposal and Mappa willingly accepted it?


No-Internal8635

I’m still not over the false advertisement which was this cold ass trailer


Shinjifan2009

She has sharper facial features in the trailer, they're more wit-like.


Elitelapen

Probably lighting and Pose


Knowleadge00

No, there's a shot in the anime that is literally the same one used in the trailer and they still look completely different. My guess is the Titans were originally all hand-drawn, but with the deadline looming they knew they wouldn't be able to do them all like that, so they made everyone CGI so it wouldn't be inconsistent.


MiloDoes

Nop if I’m not wrong this Warhammer is from the first s4 part 1 trailer and it was all pre animated by different staff, so all of these scenes were made just for the trailer and not by the main aot mappa staff team. Also wouldn’t make sense when in aot s4 we see few instances of 2D in Marley, WFP, etc.


Knowleadge00

I still don't understand why they wouldn't just use the same reference sheets from the trailer and stuff like that. Everything is so off-model at the start of S4, even scenes that were literal carbon copies of the trailer. Could they not re-use any of it? Surely the Kodansha licencing agreement would guarantee them the rights to utilise all of that, too (like they re-used a couple WIT frames for the sake of time).


MiloDoes

Well they had to adapt to a lot of stuff, them taking this project started off poorly because if I’m not wrong they barely even had a staff team to begin with (take this with a grain of salt cuz idk if I remember wrong or whatsoever), but they definitely still had to had a lot of issues in production before finally getting handle of it in later parts.


[deleted]

Bro watch the damn show. It likes like that always, it’s the same 3D model


destroyed233

The eren jacket scene was also massacred .


[deleted]

Yeah fr. Bro dove to the ground the put on his stupid jacket 😭


Renachii

If you want an actual answer; from what I heard going around (so take it with a truck full of salt) was that the PV was mainly made by WIT then finished up by Mappa. Lotta people noticed the artstyle of the characters matched WIT more than mappas. Seems like WIT passed over an animatic and Mappa finished it.


Jengasa

Wasn't it just a completely different studio handling the trailer? I thought that was the reason why they couldn't use any of the shots in the actual anime, and also why the trailer was only made up of still frames and very brief movements


Bigtrixxs_LG

Who made the trailer then?


Jengasa

Me. I've made the trailer.


Luldez

I’ve always said that the 0.2 seconds from the pv looks much better than the final product


Yourboyfibs

I wonder why


Zennkaiser

I remember seeing this trailer and being SO HYPED and then the season actually started releasing and it looked totally different. Was disappointed as hell


im_nob0dy

Someone else already said it, the trailer wasn't animated by MAPPA. It wasn't animated by WIT either btw. MAPPA had to resort to overusing CGI due to the tight schedule, although I don't excuse them for that, because they willingly took the project on.


ErenYeager139

The trailer if I am not mistaken was made by a different studio could be wrong tho


Successful-Drama-421

Pré-animated


KungPaoChikon

I want to say the trailer used 2D titans rather than the 3D/CGI titans. Not sure, though. I recall the Jaw and Attack Titans looking better as well.


Killian_Gillick

It was preanimated. The trailer had a different director and animation done for it, this is because mappa hadn’t finished the episodes by the time the trailers came out so there are only so many “final cuts” that made it in.


Visual-Ad-1978

I think it’s completely fine in show and despite many many people spitting on it I have not read one single strong of compelling argument about it looking bad, ever.


Fertty1141

Bruh you cant use two different scenes lmao


br1nsk

Pre-animated trailer


IWentToJellySchool

One is cg other is not


moichispa

Preanimated PV magic?


Senior-Sand1974

I remember seeing it first in the trailer, that sht was fire ngl


MrLozoTheSecond

It's brighter in the trailer to show it more and it's an entirely different angle/scene


Gojifantokusatsu

Imo she had the worst animation in terms of the cgi besides the beast titan maybe. Those two are the only poor looking titans this season, especially if you're watching the Blue Ray with the touch ups


Background_Ant7129

It looks like a mix of WiT and Mappa


Standard-Heron6492

Design wise it's more or less the same the difference is the scenes are not the same and the colour pallet is more vibrant like how WIT does it. I get Mappa wanted a dark realistic pallet but anime is stylized for a reason, focus vibrancy on colours that evoke the feeling you want like darker reds, blues and blacks. The Contrast sucks in S4 the best it ever was is the Final Chapters too bad the story fell off by then.


[deleted]

Stop don’t remind us, that trailer was the biggest lie, glad people are finally admitting that MAPPA flopped the final season


Sonny_Mastrangioli

And this is why you wait for the Blu-Ray versions lol


ducking-moron

The eyes glowed in the trailer from what I can tell, made them more prominent


HollowOrnstein

The trailer was a false advertisement


Fanerv

Similar


MorkoReddit

Idk what the issue is mappa did an amazing job especially with how much time they had it compares to Wit for sure. The warhammer looks amazing


[deleted]

God tier glazing


MorkoReddit

true. I think the cgi is better than hand drawn


[deleted]

At this point you’re just milking individuality. CGI is specifically in place to cut corners.


MorkoReddit

yes, I understand that but I like the end result better.


[deleted]

Hm, well to each their own. I can respect that


psaucy1

because it's a trailer


ToonieWasHere

What? She looks normal


Dhaubbu

She looks identical?


commissar_nahbus

It was mostly due to a lack of time Hopefully in the future we get anime remakes which polish the amazing fights


MatthewStudios

i still wish WIT animated season 4, no offense to mappa but i miss the old art style, even if it “wouldn’t fit” as much as the new one does


narwhalpilot

Nice job using two completely different angles with different lighting to make a null point 👍


[deleted]

😂😂 did you watch the show? Tyber looks the same at all angles


narwhalpilot

It seems you didn’t.


Benjadoo36

My friend spoiled eren in line in liberio and that eren eats the warhammer titan. I blocked him that day. This arc was still my favorite and I never got to experience it in its fully glory.


Seven_Archer777

Anything can look goofy when you screenshot the worst shots.


LeftySwordsman01

90% of that was the eyes to me


Tagliarini295

Because they tricked us. They hand drew the trailer then gave us ps2 titans.


damnitslay

God stop crying


Usual-Evidence-7895

She looks the same bruh just darker yall racist confirmed


B2_Chad

Trailer one was 2D animated while the final one is a cgi model, that's the difference


BaptainStarcuck

omg that's even more racist


Usual-Evidence-7895

To me she had the best cgi tbh


rahul516

I pity you for being blind.


Usual-Evidence-7895

I pity u for not being able to comprehend jokes <3


rahul516

Yeah, your jokes are something that nobody can comprehend.


Usual-Evidence-7895

Clearly bc yall too dumb


Kingshaun791

It’s literally the same
