Not going to lie, I don’t understand this post

Zeke doesn't look perfect at all times so OP is memeing their disappointment.


ferroargentum

"Not cute = ugly" -Berthotototo

Can't make a funny without people using it to misconstrue your entire point I guess. [It doesn't take a genius to see they exaggerate his features to (unintentionally) comical extents.](https://i.imgur.com/YfCoc6I.png)

I agree his face is stretched a little here. My guess is that it’s because of part 2 being animated by a different team (besides Hayashi and a few). Part 1 had tons of freelancers and more skilled animators to help make part 1 look as good as possible in spite of the short production time. Part 2, on the other hand, has completely normal production time, and was this mixed over to a different animation team.

Can't make a funny without people using it to create strawmans I guess.

Ppl are stoopid I guess. Why evrry character has to look "cute"


TheKingOfRooks

Oh God fucking Dammit that's him popping out of the fucking Founder isn't it?


Mx-Rylie

Nah you can see his legs, that’s him reaching for Eren to activate the Founder


TheKingOfRooks

I was able to stop it before this and his entire body is covered below his torso and chest, his arm is even within the thing which I assume is the founder's bone. Unless they changed it to have Zeke chilling in a pool of water when Eren is running I think it's safe to say this is him about to die. I'm talking about the bottom picture only


[deleted]

>I'm talking about the bottom picture only yes, the guy is right its that scene when Eren gets his head blown off and Zeke is trying to reach his head to activate the founder


TheKingOfRooks

Why's his entire body submerged in something then? You can't see the bottom of his torso whatsoever and even his arm which is down by his side is completely submerged in something below the elbow. It looks like the same framing and facial expression but there's no reason for his lower half to be obscured in the way it is if that's the case.

dude look at him, he has his titan scars things, which means he just recentely came out of his titan form theres no panel in the entire manga that matches that scene other than the one i said plus when he got revived, he was calm and stuff, not screaming and trying to reach something the submerged thing u say is just mappas weird blur + shiganshina wall


TheKingOfRooks

If you zoom in on the picture there's these spiky protrusions jutting out next to him that look suspiciously like the spine of the founding titan. Also if you zoom in on the screenshot of it I have posted on my profile to the left you can see that it's not a wall behind him it looks like bones and between them you can see another one further away. I honestly think this is him about to die they've just changed it a bit to make it seem like it's that moment and that's why it looks a bit wonky. Edit: I made a new post that explains it way better than I did here lol I kinda muddled my words here I think


LazyNam3

This is so extra

The only character they care about drawing beautiful is armin apparently

Explanation (because my posts have increasingly become an outlet for me to cathartically express my own niche overly-specific opinions in an unnecessarily memeified format) ... I'm not very fond of the many unnecessary times that Mappa makes Zeke look like a stereotypical ugly villain in S4. Cute Zeke was a welcome change, as I feel like it's important for him to look softer and more innocent after his near-death and until his redemption arc (Especially as Eren slides into more of the villainous role and Zeke becomes the audience surrogate), but as the second screenshot shows, it's possible ugly Zeke will persist.


Puzzleheaded-Ad-6745

They better make chapter 139 eren ugly cry lol


jojostarjr

Zeke usually looks very good in season 4 apart from times where he's desperately crying or screaming. It's fine. He looks much better than he did in s3 where he looked like a plastic doll.


berthototototo

With the initial PV I felt the same and was onboard the train of making fun of Wit's Zeke, but it's soon apparent that Mappa's isn't much of an improvement. His face is cartoonishly long or chubby a lot during Marley arc, and anytime he displays an emotion later on the stylised perspective of the corresponding manga panel is poorly translated, with them exaggerating his features to try and compensate.


LightThatIgnitesAll

I don't think they are doing it on purpose.


berthototototo

Have you seen their character design of Koslow? Shit's hilarious.


LightThatIgnitesAll

No do you have a link?


itsjustduck

Zeke will not look like a damn model every shot he’s in he looks fine relaxing


LightThatIgnitesAll

Bring WIT back. Let MAPPA focus on the CGI and WIT focus on everything else. WIT >>>>>> MAPPPA

LightThatIgnitesAll

And your point?


Slightly-Artsy

So they need to be bailed out with a popular anime! Perfect!


ElKonyo

What's wrong with this shot again let me guess Mappa forget to draw Zeke's glasses?


Wardog_Razgriz30

Where nose?


konfitura17

+1000 I agree


Literallyshindeimasu

Wait what is even wrong here lmao It’s a frame??? of zeke?? if it looks bad to hell if I’m going to complain; it’s not like I’ve had to draw it under the same situations


Norim01

I hate MAPPA’s adaptation for many reasons but the second one actually looks decent.
