I don't like anime in general. There are 2 things essential to ANY story: plot and art. And anime fails on both accounts.

1. The plotlines are ALWAYS confusing, IF they make any sense at all. I was watching an anime one time about a guy who talked to a girl at school over some Instant Messenger. They both liked each other, and so it seemed like they would get together. Then the guy goes to some Japanese holiday's special fair/festival thing, finds some random girl who had no connection to the story and was never mentioned before, and starts to date her. The end. It was like the whole half-hour of stuff which happened before the final scene even mattered. And don't even get me started on this whole S.O.S. brigade thing, which STILL confuses the fuck out of me. Also, I just can't believe that the guy is seriously using a sword twice the size of him with any kind of accuracy. You ever try to swing a sword which is 12 feet long? It doesn't go over well.
2. The artwork always feels lazy. They repeat the exact same 2 frames over again to represent someone talking, when it's just someone opening and closing their mouth. The characters in the background don't even MOVE. The cars are stopped at a green light. The people are frozen in mid-step. It's like they're walking in a street full of statues. It seems like someone slapped it together as fast and as cheap as possible to make a quick buck.

Long story short, I may like Hentai, but I don't like anime.

Anime IS not Halo.

Lol, "if I can't understand it, it's too confusing." Don't blame mental inferiority on anime.

On a more serious note, you're generalizing all of anime by the (what it sounds like) very few you have seen. Stop it, you are only looking stupid. I can agree that there shouldn't be a Halo anime, and I think this shit will suck, but don't say anime is stupid just because it doesn't have an overly simple plot and because older anime re-used frames to save money.

If they used Ghost in the Shell mechanics, then it would work. That would actually fit very well in the Halo universe. Gundam mechanics or anything flashy, forget it.

Replace the freedom gundam with a longsword and there ya go.

Wow, amazing modelling reference. You can see all of the detail and depth of the detail easilly, this can help when modelling the MC. Think I will save it.

Toon shaders always brought out the details in models. Gotta find out what they used to render that.

Anime IS not Halo.

Point 1: Ever heard of filler episodes? Sometimes animes get random episodes that play little or no part in advancing the story line. Usually this is because there's a manga or something that goes along with it and fillers are used to keep the show from advancing plot wise ahead of the manga. Other than that, there are some animes out there with amazing storylines. Deathnote anyone?

Point 2: Not all animes are like this. You can't judge a whole group just based on 1 show.
